So I just got a thermal printer for Christmas-- A lovely $70 baby with all the shine and unhelpfully written manual of a Chinese knock-off. It took some fiddling, some bad attempts at rolling up the paper, some checking-every-single-review-for-every-brand-selling-this-printer-on-Amazon, the works. . . But I finally got it working. The fun part about this printer is that the paper for it doesn't come in sheets. It comes in rolls, or one big long accordion of paper (kind of like palisade bacteria). Sure, it has a little edge at the end so that you can rip off your homework-sized receipt, but you're not allowed to separate your pages as they print. If you're unlucky, your paper doesn't have perforations. I consider this lucky. I can now print all of my homework-- and all of my favourite fanfiction-- in scrolls. Do you understand my opportunity for mischief? The newfound ability to treat my beloved digital fanworks with reverent respect? My 256-page lab manual is going to be wax-sealed with a little ribbon. I'm about to print out an entire Outer Wilds fanfiction. Hold on y'all.

Wait, this isn't a normal coffee order? Blueberry black coffee is so yummy!!! I have little K-cups for it. . .

one time this nondescript guy came into my dunkin donuts and ordered a small black coffee with blueberry flavor shot, and for some reason that peculiar order stuck with me so much that when, seven months later, i saw him in the parking lot walking towards the door, i quickly made a small black coffee with blueberry flavor shot. he ordered it and i was already holding it. 

i would describe his demeanor that second time as “incredulous”

Gentle rainy days are good for the soul.

"you can connect any song to a blorbo" is a lovely sentiment, but have you considered: "you can connect any song to a version of yourself?"

New art challenge: Piss Wheel Palette

[vireserein]

I haven't read the books in ages and probably won't, but can anybody catch me up on the WoF dragons and important-to-know lore? Mostly so that I can think about cool dragons as a branch to my returning dinosaur obsession. Big reptiles. Thanks.

jimmy is unfortunately so very fun to draw. yknow what gimme jimmy centric requests before I pass out from exhaustion and/or change my mind.

[rainyrambles-overcod]

idk if I did this right buuuuuuuut—

Pulled some of my faves, as well as the most popular ones that I’ve done 🫡 Granted I’ve only really been drawing since November, but hey! I’d like to think that I’ve been doing alright. No OC stuff yet—that’ll hopefully be a next year’s tab on a list of accomplishments 🥰

Thanks to everybody who’s helped get me this far! Y’all have no idea how happy it makes me that I’ve been able to share some of my art, as well as my progression of improvement! Much love to each of y’all 🫶🫶🫶🫶

Cellbit: This is the problem, global warming, summarizing it in one sentence, the real problem, real-real right? of global warming, is that there's many people, that believe in god.

[Laughing]

Cellbit: Unfortunately!-(crosstalk)

Other person in call: he's talking shit in the microphone (?)

Cellbit: Around forty- oh chill, chill, chill, chill, Unfortuna- (crosstalk)

other person: This is the man of enigma(s)

Cellbit: Unfortunately, forty percent of humanity, currently, believes in some type of god.

[Next clip]

Cellbit: My logic about global warming is because i thought- i said ah, the problem of global warming is that everyone believes in god, right? I remembered the logic, it's because, my logic is, The people they-they, believe that "ah god will solve it, eventually," and that i don't need to do anything. SO nobody acts about the problem, because, eventually god will beli- will resolve it, if it goes to shit, or if it goes to shit, it's because god wanted it to. I found it, i found what i was talking about, way back then. I found what i was talking about back then.

Cellbit: I finally discovered it.

[next clip]

Ljoga:She already sang dude-(crosstalk)-again

Cellbit: Man, that was the most drunk take that i've had in my entire life, it makes the least sense, what i said.

Ljoga: No, no, i won't even talk about the most drunk take that you've done.

Cellbit: I KNOW,-(Matt crosstalk: fuck) Man the most forgotten/lost* take about global warming, i know which was- I can explain it to you guys now if you want.

(lots of crosstalk)

Matt: Explain

LJoga: I was in that live, man!

Meiaum: I prefer that you don't explain! I prefer-I prefer that you don't explain, for me it's uh incredible for me it's really incredible.

Cellbit: I swear that it makes sense, you can speak.

Meiaum: For me it breaks the magic if you explain.

Cellbit: It won't, It won't

Ljoga: Dude one hour of (unintelligible) i was playing a magic game (?) with him.

Cellbit: I was, going very crazy, it connects(?) Man, I said, ah the problem of global warming is that many people believe in god, i passed out, what had happened, what had- which was the opening- Man I f- man i activated the right neurons, i remembered, my opening was, many people believe in god and believe that god will solve it, or everything was predestined because god wanted it, in other words, no one wants, or will try to solve the problem of global warming because, ah if the world ends- because if the world ends, god wanted it to, OR god will solve it eventually.

Ljoga: Fuck

Meiaum: No but-(crosstalk)

Matt: And the Oscar, And the Oscar

Meiaum: It's what i was saying (Ljoga:fuck)

Matt: of best argument

Meiaum: the damage- for me it was more- for me it was cooler when it it didn't make sense.

[Laughing and crosstalk]

Cellbit: here, ah Meiaum, ready, (crosstalk) I solved the situation, I solved the situation, i solved the situation.

Meiaum: No! for me, ah when he opened his mouth to talk, Man When i first heard "The reason for global warming is people believing in god-(crosstalk)

Cellbit: no It's solved already, it's solved already, it's solved already (crosstalk)

Matt: But wait a minute, wait, wait, wait, wait, Cellbit said five years ago was he thinking about it like this?

Cellbit: Yes! it was- man i remember- it wasn't that "it could've been that" I remembered it was this that- I remembered that this was my point, it was a thing that i had already thought about before

Meiaum: And a shot, Cheers guys let's go

(crosstalk of "i drank, i drank, i drank already")

Cellbit: we have five more things-of-categories

Matt: Man, the problem of my eyebrow is that it many people believe in this/it.

[laughing]

Ljoga: there's nineteen now?

Cellbit: there's nineteen, there's nineteen.

*(i think that's what he says but i'm not completely sure)

the mystery of what the hell cellbit meant by "the problem with global warming is that a lot of people believe in god" has now been solved, 5 years later

rainy cobble stone road

[rainy-day-wizard]

i remember in chants of sennar they translated the word "Mine" (like a coal mine) to "Meu/Minha" lmao

remember in mirror layers when the portuguese translation had "turn" as "vez" like turn in a game and not turn like... turning a handle.... that shit was so funny

[okaydays22]

i'm so ready for autumn...

[ahappyphjl]

dan & phil always remind me of this quote from “my rainy days” (2009):

“since meeting you, i actually began wishing for more time. i want more time with you.”

they’ve been together going on two decades now. they forget how old they are, because it doesn’t matter when you’re with someone who sees you, loves you, and accepts you for all that you are forever. that love is what gives time meaning. because they just want every second they can get together. they even subconsciously rewrite the past, because the day they met was when their lives really began. they wanna share every moment, every experience, in this life and the next and the next…

one day they’ll be 4000 year old tortoises chewing grass and staring at the sunset, then maybe a lawyer and a phonetician meeting on a case, then space dust creating a planet or some shit. either way, one person accepting you can make all the difference in the world, and it truly has for them. who wouldn’t want more time with their soulmate, more time to be the best version of yourself with them
