Some progress pics of the green bean! The gutting has taken sooo much longer then I expected. But doing this solo makes it a bit challenging. And just working on it from time to time when I have it and energy. Which can be hard to have at the same time these days 😅 but the old is at the top and the newest pics taken today (8/28/23) are at the bottom. I’m still super excited about this project! The old wood cook stove I got the other day was a project where I bit off more then I could chew. It was sadly too big for the rv. But I still plan on putting in a wood stove. Just a small one made for small spaces.

Tgcf mall au related words ⬇️

•San Niang sucks on her own hair as a nervous habit.

She probably has other ones but hair sucking is extra pathetic and makes her hair gross and crunchy sometimes and she’d kill herself if Xie Lian ever found out. Xie Lian, in reality, would not mind and would just be concerned about what was upsetting her San Niang.

•Beefleaf are t4t in this au

We’ve theorized that the “switching of fates” concept could be applied here as He Xuan having waited years on a waitlist for her bottom surgery only for swd to place one call and have sqx’s top surgery on that day instead. Just a theory, a game theory.

•San Niang and He Xuan have both been to juvie

San Niang probably for breaking and entering into the Xie family’s home after they fled/were killed followed by threat of a deadly weapon or something. Whatever makes her sentence 6 or so years long

He Xuan was framed by Shi Wudu but the specifics of the crime don’t really matter yknow… just important to note that she gets out when she’s 18

•San Niang is usually “cool and suave” (to Xie Lian, to everyone else she’s a jackass and kind of weird/disturbed) but very desperately wants to be Jiejie’s pet… hence the collar.

Puppy/kitty/fox girl-mode San Niang tends to sleep at the foot of the bed because it’s awesome for everyone’s boner that way… she is very embarrassed about being pathetic and soggy in front of Jiejie initially but it’s okay Xie Lian likes it and thinks it’s very cute

•Qi Rong is a rave-goer who… idk I’d have to come up with a 2006 version of “Night Touring Green Lantern” because that’s crazy but I’ve chosen to represent this with her and her camp exclusively using green glow sticks… yah.

Guzi is a just a lil gal and that’s awesome. Qi Rong probably dresses her in adult tshirts she’s stolen from other RVs….

•Chu Wanning and Mo Ran are in this au and they aren’t R63

Chu Wanning is both He Xuan and Hua Cheng’s…. Social worker? I don’t remember the specific title we gave him but yes he’s helped them get their an apartment and has also very sweetly tried to furnish it for them but he has no eye for aesthetic so it’s just a bunch of mismatched stuff. He Xuan probably doesn’t mind much and is grateful, San Niang is an asshole and is probably less grateful but won’t say anything… she’ll just refurnish the place herself when she’s got the money. Chu Wanning really cares about both of them though and is such a sweetheart everyone say thank you chu wanning 😭 it probably helps a lot that neither girl minds how standoffish and awkward he is… have you met them?

Mo Ran works at the footlocker with Feng Xin and they are PALS who HANG OUT WITH EACHOTHER ON THE WEEKEND/AFTER WORK. Individually they’ll probably give you decent customer service and send you home with a nice pair of shoes, together they will give you the makeover montage experience of a life time. Watch as two geniuses collaborate to have you walking outta there with the freshest shoes one can imagine. Mo Ran is probably a few years older than the Xianle trio and is just a cool guy… our txj tie in is that he’s also a massive sneaker head who gets into shady sneaker dealings…when that man puts his SnapBack on…you better watch yourself 😨 Mu Qing hates him and is very bothered that Feng Xin hangs out with him instead of her at times… the thing is is that they’re dog-coded so ofc they’re best of buds. We also had a conversation about Mu Qing being horrible to Chu Wanning because of course her rude judgemental ass would be but I really don’t remember the specifics… Anyways Mo Ran and Chu Wanning get to experience two very different sides of the tgcf crowd’s nonsense and definitely spill the hot goss over dinner every night

That’s kind of it for now… I spent way too long scrolling through dms to find specific scenarios we’ve discussed but couldn’t find what I was looking for so I’m sleepy tired now…. Feel free to ask questions, though I warn you that the au is at times dead dove and to proceed with some caution if that’s not your jam.

2024 Doll Resolutions

So... Yeah. Starting a doll sideblog because dolls make brain go brr but no one on my main blog will tolerate this LOL. I blame AG and Disney's new ILY dolls for being so so full of serotonin. But I want to do things with them aside just pose them and look at them.

1. Collect more dolls.

My AG collection is basically done. I'll take Ruthie, Claudie, and Kavi if they cross my path, but aside from them I have everyone else I want. As for the 11in ILY line, I've only just begun. I don't want EVERYONE though.

2. Make dollhouse/scenes!

I have an AG scale dollhouse that's in desperate need of a makeover, and my 11in scale dolls need a home. Or homes. MyFroggyStuff on YouTube makes these "hidden doll rooms" that fit on bookshelves, and they blew my mind. I also have plans for getting them an RV to hang out in, as soon as the seller on FB I'm breathing down the neck of* comes back from vacation.

(*I am exaggerating. We talked once, I asked for more pics of the interior, he said he'd get them when he comes back, I thanked him and haven't messaged him again since. ✌️)

I wanna make weird stuff though. My most normal idea's a sleeper train car. It's downhill from there.

3. Take more pics and videos of my dolls.

I have more ideas than the traditional pics one sees in dollblr and doll instagram (do they have a cute name like dollblr? I never use Instagram lmao). Any old foagies like me who remember these books might know what I'm up to.

If you're unfamiliar with these books... You're (hopefully) in for a treat.

4. Introduce the dolls I already have.

That's a thing we do in dollblr, right? Introduce our dolls to everyone? My AG dolls are all the historicals, so we all more or less know already who they are, but the ILYs will need introduction.

Revitalize Your Space: Expert Junk RV Removal

In a world where minimalism and decluttering are gaining momentum, one often overlooked aspect of reclaiming space is getting rid of that unused RV sitting in your backyard or driveway. Junk RV removal might not be the first thing that comes to mind when considering a home makeover, but it can be a game-changer in transforming your living space and revitalizing your surroundings.

The Hidden Burden of Abandoned RVs

Recreational vehicles, once a symbol of adventure and freedom, can become a burden when neglected. Many RVs end up abandoned due to mechanical issues, financial constraints, or a simple lifestyle change, taking up valuable space and becoming an eyesore. This is where the process of junk RV removal steps in, offering a practical solution and a chance to revitalize your property.

Environmental Impact

Beyond the aesthetic improvement, responsible disposal of your old RV contributes to environmental sustainability. Many RVs contain hazardous materials, from batteries to fluids, that can harm the ecosystem if not disposed of properly. Choosing a professional junk RV removal service ensures that these potentially harmful substances are handled and recycled environmentally, reducing your ecological footprint.

Reclaiming Space and Peace of Mind

The accumulation of unused items, especially large ones like RVs, can create a sense of chaos and disarray. Clearing out the unnecessary frees up physical space and provides mental decluttering. Imagine the relief of looking out your window and seeing an open, tidy space instead of a rusty, forgotten vehicle. Junk RV removal is not just about disposing of an old vehicle; it's about reclaiming your peace of mind and creating a serene environment.

Professional Solutions for a Hassle-Free Experience

Embarking on a DIY junk removal project might seem tempting, but the complexities of handling and disposing of an old RV can quickly turn it into a daunting task. Professional junk RV removal services offer a hassle-free solution. These experts have the equipment, knowledge, and experience to efficiently remove and dispose of your RV, saving you time, effort, and potential headaches.

Turning Trash into Treasure

One person's trash is another's treasure, even for old RVs. Some junk RV removal services specialize in salvaging and repurposing components of these vehicles, giving them a second life. From salvaging usable parts to recycling materials, these services strive to minimize waste and maximize the potential for repurposing, contributing to a more sustainable approach to junk removal.

The Financial Aspect

While it may seem counterintuitive, investing in professional junk RV removal can be a wise financial decision. The removal process, coupled with the potential increase in property value and eliminating potential fines for violating local ordinances, can outweigh the upfront costs.

Conclusion

Junk RV removal is more than just a practical necessity; it's a transformative process that can revitalize both your living space and your mindset. From environmental benefits to the peace of mind gained by decluttering, the advantages of responsibly disposing of your old RV are numerous. So, if that abandoned RV has been lingering in your life, consider the impact a professional junk RV removal service can have, turning your unused space into a canvas for new possibilities.

What are interior design services and what do they entail

Interior design services are an essential component of any well-planned and well-executed construction or renovation project. These services are provided by professional designers who specialize in creating functional and aesthetically pleasing interior spaces. Their job involves taking into consideration various factors, including the client's preferences and requirements, available space, budget constraints, colour schemes, lighting, and furniture placement, among others. The interior designers then use their creative flair to create a space that not only looks beautiful but also serves the intended purpose. From selecting the right furniture to choosing the perfect colour palette, interior design services encompass all the elements that go into creating a stunning and functional indoor space.

aesthetically pleasingIdentifying your style and budget for interior projects

Your home is a reflection of your personal style, but figuring out what that style is can be overwhelming. The first step in any interior project is identifying your unique aesthetic and budget. Your style can be influenced by a number of factors, such as your favourite colors, patterns, and materials. Once you have a clear understanding of your style, you can begin to plan your budget. Regardless of the size of your budget, there are always ways to elevate your space and create a functional, beautiful home. Planning is key, so take the time to craft a design plan that reflects your unique style while also staying within your budget. With a little creativity, you can create the home of your dreams without breaking the bank.

Tips for planning and designing a space

Designing a space can be a daunting task, but with some planning and inspiration, it can also be a creative and enjoyable process. One key tip is to start with a clear vision of the space and the function it will serve. Consider the user's needs and preferences, as well as the style and feel you want to convey. Another important aspect is to create a layout that maximizes the use of the available space and flow of movement. This includes careful consideration of furniture placement, lighting, color choices, and storage solutions. Don't be afraid to experiment with different elements and mix and match styles to create a unique and personalized space. With careful planning and attention to detail, you can transform any space into a functional and beautiful oasis.

Benefits of hiring an interior designer

There are countless benefits to hiring an interior designer for your home. Not only can they bring your vision to life, but they can save you time, money, and stress throughout the entire design process. Interior designers have a trained eye for detail and can help you make choices that suit your space and personality while also ensuring that everything flows together cohesively. Additionally, they often have access to exclusive resources and partnerships that can help maximize your budget without sacrificing quality or style. Hiring an interior designer can truly transform your space into a beautiful and functional oasis that you'll be excited to come home to every day.

Popular interior design trends to look out for

As we approach a new year, it's time to start looking at the upcoming interior design trends that we'll be seeing everywhere. One trend that's expected to continue its rise in popularity is the use of earthy tones and natural materials. We're talking warm shades of brown, beige, and green complemented by textures like wood, jute, and linen. Another trend to look out for is the use of statement lighting. Whether it's an oversized pendant light or a sculptural floor lamp, bold lighting fixtures are the perfect way to add some drama and interest to any room. Finally, minimalism is still going strong, with many homeowners opting for a clean, clutter-free look that's both calming and stylish. By paying attention to these interior design trends, you can create a home that feels current and welcoming.

Different types of home décor available

The world of home décor is vast and varied, offering endless possibilities for any style or taste. From minimalist to grandiose, there is something for everyone. Some popular options include farmhouse style with rustic wood accents and vintage pieces, modern décor with sleek lines and geometric shapes, and coastal-inspired designs that bring a refreshing seaside feel to any room. Of course, there are also the classic styles such as traditional and eclectic décor, which allow for more personal and unique touches. Whether you prefer a cozy and welcoming atmosphere or a chic and elegant look, the options for home décor are truly endless.

I was just gonna put 'it's the racism' in the tags and call it a day, but I genuinely think there's more to it than that (and to be clear, it's definitely STILL racism to a huge degree) -

But when you think of the sort of things that Marie Kondo is 'competing' with in that sort of space, especially with her TV show, it's all meaningful, actionable, quiet things that you can do in the comfort and space of your own home, without having to spend a bunch of money or have huge radical changes to your life, and I think that's the biggest issue for a lot of people.

That doesn't SELL, because when Marie Kondo comes to your house, she brings little cardboard boxes and asks you to do the difficult work of analyzing and organizing your life, and she helps you find peace and happiness in the life you have.

But the Queer Eye guys will buy you a new RV and remodel your house.

And I think partially it's that Marie Kondo is bad entertainment TV, but also because it's bucking the trend of every other makeover/improvement show that is to a certain level wish fulfillment. I have to imagine that every person who's ever watched Queer Eye has fantasized about having them show up and tell you what you're doing wrong, and give you new clothes that are tailored and professionally selected, and bring you in at the end for the reveal that you really didn't have a lot of part in.

And I feel like I'm being a little unfair to queer eye, but honestly, that's what the show is. It's a straight injection of cash into people's lives, nothing more. I still remember the one where they taught a guy how to cook nice spaghetti, he fucked up the recipe for the noodles, and just used the dry spaghetti they'd put in a vase for decoration. I'm not shitting on the guy, to be clear, but like... they gave him a single ten minute tutorial on one recipe.

And funnily enough, the only episode of Queer Eye I've ever seen where the client had genuine personal growth was the Japanese special with Chiba Makoto ("I am saved by the fact that you exist" sexiest motherfucker alive), and aside from all the other things that stood out to me, I still remember how when they were going over his clothes, he straight up went 'thanks for the suggestions, but I want to wear this' and picked out clothes for himself without Tan's input.

And I think there's so much US TV that's based around having a bunch of experts with a huge budget come in and fix your life because that's sexy and a great fantasy, but also I want to be clear that like, sometimes that's what actually makes a difference. I shit on Queer Eye for buying a lady a brand new RV for her small business, but the fact is, she needed a new fuckin' RV. She didn't need fashion tips or skin care regimens, she needed material goods, and those should always take priority. I just think that they need to be honest about what they're doing as a TV show - you watch it to feel good, not to learn anything.

But that's the difference between a TV show and a self-help book. I've watched quite a few episodes of Queer Eye and never found anything actionable for me to improve myself with (and part of that is because like, you can't take fashion tips from someone who only wears tailored clothes), and a single episode of Marie Kondo's show can give you extremely actionable and simple ways to improve your living space.

And I think also there's a sort of knee-jerk resentment to that, in the same way that you see people say 'must be nice not to be mentally ill' to extremely basic self-care posts on here. We want to be saved, we want to be rescued, not because we can't do the hard terrible work of digging ourselves out slowly, but because surely, we deserve to be saved. Someone has to love us enough to save us.

Marie Kondo's method can dramatically change and improve your life, but it's hard, and it's painful, and that's because that's usually how change is.

And we watch other people get rescued from crippling debt and poverty with a brand new RV and a whole new wardrobe.

And damn, don't they look so happy, without having to do any of the miserable work.

BUT ALSO EVERYONE WAS REALLY REALLY RACIST TO MARIE KONDO HOLY SHIT

you know, the more i think about it, the angrier i get about how mainstream media and even people in general treated marie kondo when the life changing magic of tidying up got big. it's just so unnecessary and sad to me and i think the vast majority of people would love what she has to say if they just actually looked into it instead of maliciously memeing her to death? i'm not talking about the cutesy does it spark joy stuff but all the things portraying her as some bizarre evil cleaning dictator.

i actually read her book when i was about twelve years old, in the most shocking and probably only example of me ever being ahead of a trend, and even at twelve i really loved everything she said. at that point in time i lived in fear of my mother's threats that she would come and throw everything away while i was school, and my small and very adhd mind simply could not grasp the concept of "have less stuff". have less of WHICH stuff? how? i'd never actually been taught how to clean my room besides being told "pick up stuff" and "be organized", and as she points out multiple times, cleaning is not an intuitive thing. it's a learned behavior and skill.

anyways. her entire philosophy centers on surrounding yourself with things that you love, and only things that you love (or things that you absolutely need). she explicitly says over and over again that it is not about throwing things away, it is not about minimalism, it is not about "what is the smallest amount possible that you can survive on". she literally has a whole section where she talks about how hard it can be to throw things away when you've lived in poverty all your life and you don't have absolute confidence that you can replace something that you really needed if it gets thrown out, even though you're not likely to ever really need it--you've just been conditioned to think that because that's literally how you survive, when you're poor. she talks about how that mindset can serve and how it can damage. she talks about how minimalism is sort of a rich people thing, cause they can afford to throw everything away.

this woman really came out here and said "i want you to be surrounded by things you love and i'm going to validate your fears and your difficulties in getting to that place" and people somehow got mad at her. i don't understand it
