“Sentenced To Work On Farm,” Border Cities Star. February 6, 1933. Page 3. ---- Guilty Husband Must Hand Money Over To His Wife ---- FREDERICK FITZPATRICK, found guilty on a charge of assaulting his wife, was "farmed out" on the orders of Magistrate Brodie in Windsor Police Court this morning, Fitzpatrick is to labor on the John Plant farm, Sandwich South, for the next three months and his earnings are to be turned over for the maintenance of his wife and children. 

In addition to the assault count, the accused was also charged with corrupting his home but M. R. Winters, inspector for the Children's Aid Society, consented to withdrawal. Fitzpatrick was tried a week ago on the assault charge, his defence being that he had been obliged to oppose his wife when she attacked him with a hammer and curling irons. 

Magistrate Brodie ruled that he might come to Windsor to see his children, but only when accompanied by Mr. Plant. Otherwise, suspended sentence was given on condition that he stay away from the city for the three month period.

Y'all know those fanfics where Saiki is an asshole to Teruhashi or really rude to her until they start dating? Yeah, this is what I imagine what that Saiki meeting Canon Saiki would be like.

Canon Saiki: So do you still deal with Teruhashi?

Fanfic Saiki: I can not avoid that woman. The other day she was bothering me when a mob of her fans showed up so I teleported away and-

Canon Saiki, surprised: You revealed your powers to her?! I mean, her fans do suck, so I can understand panicking and teleporting the both of you away-

Fanfic Saiki: What? No, I teleported myself away and left her there.

Canon Saiki: You what.

Fanfic Saiki: I teleported myself away. Well actually, I was the one who kinda summoned that crowd so that she'd be too overwhelmed with them to go find me-

Canon Saiki, shaking with murderous rage: You what.

Beeper when I first brought her home. For those of you who don't know Beeper was given to me for free by the farm store because she was actively dying. She was flipped onto her back and getting trampled by the other chicks. I didn't think she would make it during the ride back home or the next few days but she did. Basically she was on recycled coffee ground bedding and had injested a large amount while being a very young day old chick. While recycled coffee ground bedding says on the bag that all caffeine in extracted so it's "safe" there is no regulation and it is still an impaction risk in chickens regardless. Not only that it can cause ammonia build up which can damage a birds lungs and skin.

In Beepers case it caused severe constipation due to dehydration. If she didn't have a strong will she wouldn't have made it but she did pass it eventually and began eating and drinking on her own soon after.

If you're making requests, sooo...can you draw the Cross x Farm ship?

I don't know, I think they would be cute together.

Like: An easily embarrassed guy who isn't used to affection x A chill, goofy guy who gives him all the affection he needs

Cross helps around the farm because he feels like he's being lazy and taking advantage of Farm's kindness. Saejun appreciates it but he just wants Cross to relax.

Since I finished the manga a few days back, I wanted to revisit my two demon slayer OCs I made last year. Here's Yoshi and Syougo ^^

Syougo and Yoshiaki are childhood friends who both ended joining the Demon Slayer corps after being separated earlier in life. Yoshi spent his years training under his retired slayer father before passing the final examination, while Syougo ended up having to figure his own methods out after his first teacher made it so he couldn't use a true breathing technique again.

As an overview of the techniques they use:

Field Breathing is a technique Yoshi's father came up with over his career in the corps. When he retired, he continued to polish the forms and taught them to Yoshi. Both the name and the forms it utilizes are based on the flora around the rice fields he was raised and later retired to. The technique emphasizes speed, flexibility, and applying pressure to the opponent as much as possible. It's fluidity and aggressiveness leads Yoshi to be quick in handling threats since he pushes opponents around

Spirit Breathing (or if you're using archaic kanji, Vengeful Spirit Breathing) is a breathing technique Syougo made as a way to regulate his body and state of mind after losing the lung capacity to use Total Concentration or other methods. It's based around his base breathing rate so he doesn't overexert himself, which means to an extent he is always using it. In combat it's intended to psych out opponents and help highlight their weak points. Since it's mostly a distraction/intimidation technique, Syougo uses a secondary weapon to get the jump on opponents when they're not focused.

For some bonus design notes, here's some details for how they dress:

Yoshiaki's samue is based on what he'd wear when working at the rice fields with his family. The light green colour comes from being dyed with wisteria leaves, a precaution his mother took hoping it would protect him

Having nostalgia from weaving baskets with his mom when he was younger, Yoshi tends to use dry reeds for securing things. He ties his hair with it, decorates his equipment with it, and though his legs aren't visible, he ties reeds in a crossed pattern over his kyahan

The brown cotton sageo and tsuba he uses are handed down from his father. The scar on his cheek is also there for the same reason, his father had one and Yoshi decided to cut his cheek to look cool and match 💀

Syougo's haori has kogin-zashi embroidery across the sleeves and shoulders. He sewed it himself in between his training as a way to decompress and slow down. His kyahan have a matching stripe across the front

Syougo's tsuba was gifted to him by his current mentor who thought he would enjoy the oblique patterning to match his outerwear. His current mentor also requested a nichirin style tanto for him to use for his secondary fighting technique

The ragged look of Syougo's hair comes from him prioritizing training over all else, even appearance. The only instance where he will fully comb and dress his hair is for important meetings and ceremonies. He does maintain the part of his hair though, modelled after his mentor's (much shorter) hair. This is one doodle with clean hair

I'd write more about their character but this is getting long as it is 💀

I have a piece with Syougo that I'm going to put up soon, and at my sister's request I'll try doing a matching one for Yoshi

Hope you guys like these fellas ^^ I'll see you later

"CITY MAN RETURNS AFTER FARM WORK," Toronto World. May 16, 1918. Page 7. --- T. A. Watts, 49 Alexander street, employed by the T. Eaton Company, has returned from a month's work on a farm between Woodhill and Ebenezer Corners in the neighborhood of Brampton, to which he had been directed by the government employment agency on King street. Mr. Watts says he was exceedingly well used by this farmer who understood that, al- tho he was conversant with farm work, it was some six years since he had been on a farm and was consequently not in trim for immediate hard work. His hours were 7 in the morning till 6 at night. after which he had, of course, to look after the horses' needs His wages were $45 a month and good board and lodging. He was given every consideration, being met at the station by the farmer as well as driven to it again when leaving. The farmer also gave him leave over the week-end twice, so he could visit his family, and both times drove him to the radial station, some six miles away. Mr. Watts is glad he "did his" and feels that he was able to give considerable assistance to the farmer in seeding and other work about the farm.

howdy fellas! i guess it's that time of year again

i'm sure all of you that have been following me for a while are sick of hearing about everything i've gone through over the past interminably long year of my life, and i'm really sorry about that... believe me, i'm sick of it too lol. anyway that's why i don't always talk a lot on here at the moment, because i'm worried about answering too many asks and coming across as annoying.

the truth is, just recently, things have finally hit a place that i can at least describe as "fairly stable." i'm hopeful i'll soon be able to afford to go to an IT place and get my files rescued, which will be a godsend for me. i'm really relieved about all of this obviously, and i keep thinking about making a post because i'm so excited to think about being able to jump right back in. but i've held myself back from telling you all that hopefully things will start moving again soon because i'm anxious about overpromising and don't want to disappoint any of you guys (any more than i already have).

if it makes any of you feel any better, i have no plans to stop writing damnation even if all of you unfollow me and i'm just writing it for myself XD i just needed to. you know. get a house and food first. so. hopefully i'll have proper good news for you all soon!
