Per @brightgnosis I am not overexerting myself by folding laundry and doing a deep clean of the bedroom today before work. At least I was able to take care of the trash and make enough room on the floor to actually pack.
Now I have to actually pull clothes out, which sucks bc I never know what I want to wear in any given day when I'm not stuck in a work uniform
#the conundrum is real#I def will need to do a load of laundry either tonight after work or tomorrow#unless Kaiden does it in which case that's one less thing for me to worry about

Why are the movies called Saw in the first place?
there are a lot of saws in the movie. and a lot of sawing gets done.
#shitty saw traps#saw franchise#mod amanda#the real answer is that the original main trap of the first movie involves sawing off a leg#so that's the conundrum of the first film

#anti rtd#oomfs ur so right#s14 is the kinda mid that people think his era was#and yet#you throw in that razzle dazzle written by rtd and all of a sudden there's no criticisms!#or worse somehow#is how its a polite and gentle reframing of chibs criticism#like with him it was hey he ate this singular one thing But I KNOW CHIBS IS BAD HE'S TERRIBLE DONT WORRY I KNOW IT#and with rtd its oh i disliked this nonsensical and objectively bad writing but ummm guys i lOVED LOVED everything else i swear#its soooooooooooooOOOOOOOOO#it must be studied#but i knew yous were a lost cause when we had 14/15 running around calling men hot bc yes totally something the doctor just does#not ooc at allllll#bc this is how we know the doctor is queer now guys#dont you know it#i have like a million other complaints i miss being like oh hey that was mid/bad and moved on with my life 😭😭#god i think 13 era killed me bc now i do care about u hypocritical losers#rip 15ruby i wish i cared and that you had any development#ncuti millie i would like to hang out with you though#15 maybe you'll cry less next season so that the emotional scenes have impact perhaps 🙏���🙏🏾#ramblings of an insomniac#god i just remembered the whole real mum antics#fuck i need to go i gotta go!!!!#ps the ncuti conundrum where he's the most charismatic dr in nuwho whilst also being the worst actor is driving me nuts#idk if its the characterisation or his lack of ability in creating that inner psychology that connective tissue between his louder acting#which he's great at btw!#idk maybe that one monologue in boom made me go yes okay here we goooo#but then every other moment has been like hmmmnnnmtgodhd okay whateve#i think he needed more acting prep before he got this role bc he's got Something he could be Great but the subtle stuff is lacking#sooo hoping he can grow into that but it's giving perfect actor wrong time.... and if ur white ur not allowed to agree with me shush go away

what if i wrote a dr wingdings gaster so real and so convincing it became impossible to see him as anything else and made tobias "radiation" fox come into my dms asking me to cease my activities immediately because im ruining the mystery
#delete later#perhaps#talking to the wall#dont mind me im having delusions of grandeur again#but just in case it actually happens#not a spite post btw this is a Man I Wish I Could Make The Things In My Mind real post#the need to feed the gaster fandom vs the academic demands required for my diploma#both fighting in an incredibly unstable rotten board arena above an active volcano#(an analogy for my several untreated mental conundrums)#well. back to developing my cartoon pitching

smth kinda fucked up about watching doumeki go from whole assedly making life or death decisions for watanuki as a desperate but firm love language every other tuesday to fucking sitting in quiet anguish with a pained look on his face with his eyebrows fucking tweaking out, still able to make life or death protective decisions sometimes but being fucking paralysed with indecision most times that don't involve immediate physical actions to the point it's clearly ripping his head and heart in two even if he still retains that refusal to give up
#seeing love grant him the strength to make drastic actions but also to freeze him in a stasis that actively hurts every bone in his body is#iDKKKK IDK IDK IDK#my complicated thoughts abt rou strike again#i rly like the intricacies to which stuff stays the same and stuff plunges into tragic monotony and hurt#although some things about the ending/continuation are pure ass and clamp being dumb for no reason#the real complicated part is that i mostly love how well characterised and visceral the hurt of the angst is#but that i wish there was an inproving end point because of the love for the characters and moral of 70 percent of the story#you want these characters to go through it and then to come to happier places or reconvene somehow but#well#ive explained this conundrum 500 times before#but this is one of those specific cases where i have to say that the expression work in holic is so fucking singular#that even when they dont or barely speak you can fucking read everyones eyes like a book#its why i hesitate to call douwata subtext#it doesnt rly make sense cause the feelings involved are so obvious as they are with everything else in the series#the expression work is both rly good for understanding the story in a way that doesn't just focus on good art or speech bubbles#but also it means you can actively see a characters heart shatter into tiny sharp abrasive pieces in real time#it's beautiful and horrific and aaaa#when shit goes quiet and doumeki leaves the room and just breaks tf down and we basically see him all but fucking crying#god.

Laplace's Angel by Will Wood is a Gertrude Robinson song
#''if you were in my shoes you'd walk the same damn miles i do'' is a good summary of her. entire character#''it doesn't take a killer to murder / it only takes a reason to kill'' like. yeah#this is what being stuck in a real-life moral conundrum for 50+ years does to a woman#tma#rant#the magnus archives#gertrude robinson

Like I’ve said, I am currently rewatching Gotham.
This freak out in the season one finale was so hot. Like legit butterflies in my tummy. I love this goober.
#the conundrum man#the riddler#edward nygma#gotham riddler#gotham tv#fox gotham#I promise I’ve been taking my meds#should I even try interacting with real people anymore?

Something funny on the discourse axis of "is it ethical to kill animals for food" / "can't you just eat vegetables," is that few things in this world make a person so strongly feel the emotion of "wow I could eat that animal in particular," as trying to grow vegetables and having them be eaten by a varmint*
*generally I don't approve of categorizing animals as pests or vermin. Like as a concept I think that leads quickly to bad places in terms of how you relate to your local ecology. And generally to resolve a conflict of this sort with an animal you probably have to change how you're relating to the local ecology (see: integrated pest management). BUT that being said. Sometimes you make eye contact with a rabbit in your garden,, after bemoaning the nipped off remnants of your soon-to-be-ripening vegetables,,,
#quite frankly the rabbit in question would not be worth the effort#by the time you got it cleaned there'd hardly be two bites of meat on it#Also my Real ethical conundrum is that while I've long felt that as a meat-eater I should be prepared to do my own butchery#I've always been too squeamish to learn any of it#And I do feel like that squeamishness is a bit of a hypocrisy.#Also the vegetables I've been Most peeved to loose have been the tomatoes (just as they start to ripen!!)#and I think that may actually be rats :[#Which I do not want to eat. For other various reasons.#So I may be displacing the emotion onto the rabbit who I happen to know would taste good.... further ethical dishonesty#the REAL question is where's the neighborhood coyote when you need them#google search 'how to attract coyotes to yard'#'get coyotes to eat my bunnies how'

Because it’s 2AM, here8s something I’m not afraid to admit: I’m simultaneously a Rollisi and Barisi shipper; while being an avid Rolivia enjoyer
#it’s a conundrum#the struggle is real#but they are all so good#rollisi#barisi#rolivia#it should be a poly thing#change my mind#you can’t

wip wednesday: project shaming edition
i finally remembered wip wednesday, and it's even still wednesday! great job, me, very proud of you.
first, the good. i have yet to spin the second bobbin of my first pipy project, but that's fine—treadle wheels are mostly a weekend thing for me, and i felt crappy last weekend and barely got out of bed. i feel like it'll get done this weekend, no worries. and i'm going to ignore that realistically, i'm going to start spinning up the polwarth i dyed basically as soon as i can, because i'm greedy. surely the limit is one active spinning project per wheel, right?
anyhow, starting 'as soon as i can' is, basically, after i finish this set of socks.
are these socks exciting? no. am i enjoying knitting them? they're fine, i guess. i'm not sure that i love hobbii's sock yarn, and it wants desperately to spiral, for some reason. but the socks will serve their purpose, and that's why i knit socks with novelty yarn, so whatever. i'm getting a lot of very important youtube videos watched.
unfortunately, that's it for the good, and next up we have this hideously orange jumper. it's so orange that neither my phone nor my computer can figure out what to do with it. when it looks right on one, it looks red on the other; when it looks right on the other, it looks like bizarre orange that's both too bright and too dull. this picture looks equivalently bad on both devices, so it's what i'm using.
it's just a mindless no-pattern raglan with hobbii unicorn solids. it looks small, but it's just squished on the needles—it's adult sized, and the body will be something like 470 stitches around. this isn't really sparking joy, though it is, again, good television knitting, and i think that it will be well loved when i'm finished. which might be 2025.
and then the...mixed emotions. i spun this yarn. i'm knitting it into a shawl for my wife. i love both the yarn and the wife. but i'm a little wary of the project itself, because it's not great for mindless knitting (or at least isn't great yet), and also, frankly, i'm so aware that it's silly, you know? will anyone ever wear this shawl? i honestly have no idea. but here's the yarn.
that second picture is one strand of the yarn, one of sewing thread. the yarn is one ply of handspun rambouillet and one of commercial silk, plied loosely together. i went with this because while this is by no stretch of the imagination an orenburg shawl, galina khmeleva says that this is how they're traditionally done: loosely plied, one ply cashmere, one ply commercial silk. i figure if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me—and also, ok, easier than spinning another 1200 metres of singles for this.
i've started the very beginning of the shawl, and have every intention of finishing it, but haven't gotten far. you can just see the lace on the outer panels starting to form.
i love this shawl. i'm going to finish this shawl. now that i'm thinking about it, though, it might be more of a summer knitting project than a winter one. i'm putting off starting a cowl, which would be a little more practical in the immediate future. i'll see how i feel when i'm done the socks, i guess.
#wip wednesday#knitting#spinning#hand spinning#fiber arts#fibre arts#fiber crafts#fibre crafts#handspun#handspun yarn#handspinning#smartest raccoon i know#i really want to find a way to consolidate tags#but also i keep looking in the tags and there's not much there#so i also want people to use more tags#it's a real conundrum#i need to figure out what's up with my phone's camera too#all of a sudden it can't handle reds or blues?#which is sort of bad#since reds and blues are...minorly important colours

Hi everyone, a small update! The Scratch plushies are set to arrive here this week! Everyone who pre-ordered only Scratches should expect to see those shipped out in the next few weeks.
Molly is still following the original timeline, so she should arrive in my hands in late December, and will be sent out to you soon after. All bundles will go out at this time too! Thanks for your continued patience!
Plus here's a peak at the bonus items! Each pre-order of Scratch and/or Molly will come with a 4" Glow-in-the-dark Sticker and a 3" Acrylic Charm Keychain!
#news#preorders#to reiterate: nothing is delayed! Scratch is just early to the party#how will i keep all these scratches fed is the real conundrum
