In honor of me FINALLY starting some writing on an idea Iāve had cooking up for awhile, hereās a few paragraphs from the epilogue I wrote today š¤..
Hope you enjoy! š
My first day on the job, I thought the hardest part would be the isolation, but it turns out the forest has a weird way of keeping you company.
It was a simple enough life. Wake up, drive 45 minutes to work every morning, sit up in that watch tower until 5 pm, and then drive 45 minutes back home every night. I liked the routine, though it eventually all started to blur together. One day was no different from the next as there, of course, were never any fires.
Though I liked the thrill of not knowing, maybe that's what drew me to take the job. I relished the idea of that long drive with nothing to hear except āRawe Feed Radio with Michael Precise, the white trash heartthrob,ā and the sparkling thought that maybe, just maybe, Iād see a fire today. Not that I ever wanted the forest to burn down, of course. I didnāt want that. But I wanted to feel useful. I wanted someone to rely on me, for someone to say āHey! Thatās the guy who stopped Emerald Ridge National Park from burning down!ā Maybe thatās egotistical, maybe I let my hero complex get the better of me, but itās the truth nonetheless.
Either way, my job, and my life were pretty straightforward. My schedule rarely changed. I spent whatever time I wasnāt working at home, doing chores or meal prepping. There was a certain comfort in the predictability of it all, one that, if you asked me today, I couldnāt explain, but back then I wouldāve defended with my life.
(Thatās all for now, maybe more updates as it goes along and keep in mind this is a very rough draft, so I apologize for any typos.)
(Gross Iām starting to sound like a wattpad writerā¦)

Really, this should be banned. They do have biodegradable ones, but they cost more.

Etc. Jam 2024 has concluded, and here are the results!
Before we get into it, just a reminder that Etc. Jam will be moving to the start of the year, and will take place before Ghost Jam. That means we'll be hosting another one in a few months, so keep an eye out if you'd like to participate!
This year's event was announced at the last minute, so there wasn't as much participation as last year. Even so, there were 8 projects by 7 participants!
Of those projects, 3 of them were balloons, and there was one shell, freeshell, calendar skin, guide, and plugin.
3 projects were completed in just 24 hours, completing the 24 hour challenge, and 3 users completed the variety challenge by creating at least 2 projects of different types!
Congratulations to everyone who participated!
And without further ado, see below for the list of projects!

started thinking about the okipara museum artwork and i just realized what flower 18!kara is holding in it.
those are alstroemeria, which can mean perseverance and yearning for the future in hanakotoba....
#the thing that has me fucked up about this is that i actually accociated the same flower w/ hs!kuroba b4 i realized this#like i literally drew something w/ them involving that flower the other day. fuckin OKAY.#what if we experienced the same struggles with confidence and the flower that represents us hints towards preserving into a brighter future#kuro & kara being so similar in high school makes me want to gnaw my hands off i'm going to lose it#i haven't pinned down adult kara's flower yet tho#i thought it could be a balloon flower but looking at how the petals flare out i think it's something else#also apparently there was a massive artbook released for that museum?? i kinda want it...#i might see if i can get it through the proxy service i like#it'd be awesome if these illustrations were in there bc there aren't really high quality versions of them...#i'd try identifying everyone else's flowers too but that's hard when the details get kinda lost when up-scaling the image#osmt#karamatsu#18matsu#flower akatsuka#mj rambles

i've gone on an hours long bender consisting of ogling at every balloon flown in the Macy's Parade and need everyone to look at this 1938 photograph of the Ferdinand the Bull balloon. doesn't it make you so at ease.
#fun fact because it was the 20s/early 30s they thought it would be a brilliant idea to release the balloons into the air when they were done#which certainly didn't result in a near plane crash as one pilot tried to catch a balloon and went into a tailspin#i know it's too easy a compulsion to be like 'lol idiots what were they THINKING back then' but truly. why#if i was a kid at the parade and saw Felix the Cat float up to the high heavens never to return i most certainly would have thrown a fit#not to mention releasing a 50 foot rubber balloon rogue is probably not smart! tasty chemicals burning into the air when a balloon crashes#nd burns into a telephone pole#(Felix didn't die both of the aforementioned incidents are two separate--yet cat themed!--balloons)

18 years ago I read this at a funeral and I have basically no memory of it whatsoever. I have been told I was too short to reach the podium and someone had to get me a box to stand on.
#my memory of the funeral is basically a bunch of people saying hail marys waiting for it to start#a little bit of one eulogy#and the balloon release at the end#there's bits here and there like incense and stuff but it mostly picks up at the gravesite

The reason why many people view men wearing women's clothes as perverse or weird or wrong is misogyny, btw.
They think that it's unnatural for a man to give up the privilege of presenting as masculine because on some level, consciously or otherwise, they think femininity is inferior. They think it is 'normal' for a woman to wear pants because there are advantages to wearing pants, and the historical association with masculinity is a positive. They think it is 'abnormal' for a man to wear skirts and dresses because they think the historical association (in Western culture) with femininity is a negative. Muting this and never checking the notes but I think some people need to realize where their bias comes from.
#misogyny#crossdressing#this is specifically about men who dress in women's clothing#but the same phenomena generates a lot of transmisogyny because people view transwomen as men in dresses#so it is transmisogyny adjacent as well#genderqueer#genderfluid#transmisogyny#terfs can go ahead and interact with this post but you're a good chunk of the 'they' being discussed lol#be clowns I don't care this post is being released like a balloon into the ether
