I really love your fallout drawings! I was in the NV fandom when the game first came out, and one thing I really love about your art is how youthful you make boone look. I can't remember if there's a canon age for him, but the fan consensus at the time was that he was like, 22-24 but your art is the first I've seen where he looks that age. bravo!
thank you so much!! :"D i remember seeing he's 25-26 on the wiki or somewhere but i'm 50% sure that's not confirmed/has no source. while part of it is just my style, but i do love a younger look for him because i think it makes the shit that happened to him worse (emoji where it's the sunglasses emoji but also it's crying.jpg) and hones in on the fact that he's... borderline still a kid. he should be at the club.
anyway thinking about him at the club -> me drawing what i think he would wear on a run to the corner store

#asks#hormelfoods#XL big box store shirt with completely random design ✅#plastic water bottle he definitely crumples up when he's done w it ✅#plastic bag so thin a stiff breeze could break it ✅#running shorts with no discernible brand ✅#the most expensive thing he owns fashion wise is the garmin sports watch carla gave him <3#craig boone#doodly thingy#fallout tag

watching a documentary on finnish american rag rug weaving GOD i love you fiber arts. one woman interviewed could trace a detailed oral history of six generations of women in her family by the time they spent weaving together on the same hand made loom. she showed a rug her great grandmother started but was completed by her mother after she died and you could see the weaving transition between them. and then she showed a rug her own mother died while weaving that she had finished herself and pointed out a similar transition. she teaches her granddaughter to weave now. god i’m crying that’s so beautiful
#free documentaries recommended to me in the youtube sidebar I LOVE YOU#i love you women i love you fiber crafts i love you folk art#very very old man talking about how his grandma gathered plastic bread bags from the community for years#to weave them into a rug. she invented plarn#talked about it took so long because everyone was too poor to BUY bread. that’s a luxury#multiple women who sold their rugs in the local hardware stores. god. that’s so real#i miss the midwest#orating!

the latest trashgate is i keep drawing guides on petri dish lids (you draw a guide in sharpie on one lid, then you can set all your plates INSIDE the lid and see the guide-- meaning you can put things on the plate in the same place across every plate, or keep track of space while using the microscope, etc). it's one of those things where you COULD spend more money on a plate with a grid printed directly on it, or you can make one customized to your needs for free
i keep having to make them because people THROW THEM AWAY. i was keeping them in a communal space where the lab manager told me they're supposed to be, but people threw them away anyway. i started keeping them in a basket ON MY DESK labeled "mixel's stuff" and people still threw them away
now the basket says DO NOT TOUCH -- YOU WILL BE CURSED!
#please why?????#previously i had issues with:#someone threw away a 'dead' plant i put in the window over my desk#(i was attempting to nurse it back to health)#they did this AFTER they threw away a bunch of the wrappers petri dishes come in#(it's common to store dishes in the wrappers once you've made them with whatever agar)#so the plant was tossed AFTER i said to that person: 'hey i understand why those things looked like trash but i needed them.'#'please do not ever touch my personal stuff again even if it looks like trash'#then a different person threw away a reusable coffee cup????#it was one of those ones made to look like a disposable one but it was PLASTIC and STILL HAD COFFEE IN IT#people also steal my plates so i added a curse to those too >:(#mixed bag

love the weird timeskip taffy quirk where everyone slowly learns that hes obsessed with fruit
#taffy stuffs 10 lbs of mangos into one of those shitty grocery store plastic bags#lime: weird obsession but ok#taffy:..... [side eye] (says the guy whose obsessed with his best friend...?)#coco jealousy episode where the fruit stand girl flirts with taffy and he has no fucking idea whats even happening#fruit stand girl: if you give me your number i can get you some free fruits? ///#taffy: ok#coco: ???????!!!!#coco: whatever makes him happy i guess. (infests the atmosphere of the whole house with her bad mood)#heavy air.....#anyway. if anyone is looking for a delicous snack i just had light vanilla yogurt + equal + frozen mango chunks#mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

hi!! i make plushies, and more recently ive been taking plushie comms. do you store your patterns physically? if so, whats your method? ive been resorting to plastic baggies LOL
i keep them in clear sheets in folders
usually i take a thicker piece of paper (120-150g/m²) and write on the front what pattern it is and than slot the pieces of pattern behind it so they are easy to flip through in the folder!

im a lot like taylor swift bc my 21st birthday did suck so bad
#text#it was a MONDAY#i went to my class#then to the grocery store. where i bought. a bag of goldfish. a twix bar. and bottom-shelf 4-pack of little plastic bottles of white wine#and then i went to my friend's dorm and we had mac and cheese . which was like the only redeeming factor of the day#i was waiting for my title ix stuff to start happening bc the coordinator had TOLD ME#THAT IT WOULD ''DEFINITELY BE OVER'' BY MY BIRTHDAY. IT WAS NOT#CHAT THE HEARING WASNT EVEN TIL LATE JANUARY. MY BDAY IS IN NOVEMBER#THERW WAS LIKE A GOOD MONTH OF NO COMMUNICATION TOO GOD I WAS SO MAD

#im emotionally devastated#if anyone happened to see my unfortunate little episode earlier. this is the beloved stupid piece of plastic i was referring to#ive had him on my bag for ages and the store i got him from doesnt sell him anymore#he cant connect to the hook anymore since his little loopy thing is torn. but the actual figure isnt damaged#so i could convert him into a different kind of ornament#ill miss his presence on my bag though :'(#jason voorhees#friday the 13th

People be out here saying "don't get the free plastic bags from the store, just buy reusable ones!" as though my parents haven't been using the same 10 free plastic bags for the past seven years.
Most things are reusable if you have enough determination.
This is a shitpost I support environmentalism and also people who need disposable shit for health reasons I just thought this was funny please don't hate me-
#environment#environmentalism#reusable#reduce reuse recycle#recycling#waste disposal#plastic bag#shitpost#made this post because i (college) student was buying emergency groceries and realized that i forgot my bag#and i had too much stuff to carry in my arms so the cashier asked if i wanted a bag#and my first thought was 'oh good a free bathroom trashbag'#like yes plastic bag are still bad but i also think it could be interesting to talk about the ways in which we still reuse disposable thing#i have been using the same paper plate for the past three meals#i throw it out when i think it will attract ants#growing up my parents subconsciously taught me every possible way i could reuse a disposable bag#so i don't completely mind it when i get one from the store because for me it's really similar to a normal reusable bag

(i know). but i am so tired of losing my keys in the bottom of my giant bag#and bandannas for beeswax wraps bc i am So tired of buying plastic baggies and i already have the beeswax

Wait I forgot to post the dice


Shockingly, theyre almost perfect!! Not, like, usable, but none of them have giant warped sides where the numbers should be ^_^ I assume the big problems came from when I flipped it with the wonky mold lid, so assuming I fix my mold (or get a better one) I might be able to make my Dream Dice!! :D
#These ones are so close#They're close enough that I'm just gonna store them in a plastic bag and call it the Imperfect Dice bag#Like some kind of god/nature defying experimenter type throwing aside its rejects#The first attempt (months ago) was bad enough that there wasn't much to save#my posts b)

a second phone dying event has hit the qrevo
#qrevo.txt#FUCK it's the second one in less than half a year#i caught a LOT of rain when biking to work today. there were areas nearby that were even a bit flooded and some roads were closed#so of course when i got to the office my bag was DRENCHED. absolutely sopping wet#i wore my raincoat and i even kept my stuff inside TWO plastic bags to not get wet; but everything in there was drenched :(#now the screen sometimes gets unresponsive and does random presses around the screen; specially in the bottom part#which makes it really difficult to do anything. typing?? yeah fuck you. we're selecting random messages and almost calling people#watching a yt video?? fuck you. skipping the video; then liking a random one and then almost REPORTING A VIDEO FOR THREATS + VIOLENCE???#at least this was one of the old ones we had stored around that i grabbed as a placeholder; so it's not a big loss but. COME OONNNNN

Sometimes I think the differences between Canada and America are very small and that we're basically the same but then I remember. Y'all have never had a Coffee Crisp? Never watched The Mercer Report? Never experienced the morning rush at Tim's? Never had real maple syrup? You've never even been inside a Canadian Tire.
#I don't think I need to mention the bagged milk thing we all know about that#But there are so many small differences#ALSO y'all still have plastic bags?? We banned them already#And what's up with having a hair salon in Walmart?#I swear whenever I visit Walmart feels more like a small mall than an individual store

I cleaned for 2 hours, nice 😎
#mostly cleaned out the shelves around the house#i didn't realized my sister stored at least 3 bags full of plastic bags when she used to live with us#managed to get them sorted out but i think there's an extra one at the deep bottom of the storage room#that's just how asian households are just bags full of plastic bags for garbage bins lol#text post

anime resale stores here always have absolute mountains of love live figures from every iteration of the franchise with every character and costume you could imagine...except i've never been a figure girlie so i always just look over the shelf in awe because i can't really see myself buying anything. except, that is, for the early love live sunshine aqours figures with no legs. that, i would buy
#were these the first aqours figures ever?? they can't be right?#either way i remember just how early into lls this was#it's really burned into my memory i have no idea what they were made for though#i just always remember them. and their lack of legs#those shops always have the nice boxed up figures and then the ones that were brought to them without a box#left to sit forever in plastic bags on hooks on the store walls (until someone buys them)#some of those come in multiple pieces? like maybe stands or removable parts...?#but i always think it's gonna be one of these and i'm always so disappointed#cmon rashinban sell me one of the ugliest and most baffling love live figures of all time#personal#honestly it's not just figures i'm just really not much of a merch girlie#living in japan is slowly curing me of that though just because of how normalized it is for everyone to have character merch#i bought a really cute kanan keychain a while ago but then it fell off of my bag when i was out :( i still have no idea where i lost it#the normalization of it really helps though honestly#if you'd told me 2 years ago that i'd be buying little nitotan plushes of my fav characters to hold up to scenery while traveling and#take pictures of i definitely wouldn't have believed it#but that's just like a thing that anime girlies do here. i think it's really cute actually#i still haven't gotten around to actually bringing any of those plushes on trips because i forgot 3 times in a row#and then the next trip i took after that was with my family#nooooot a chance. oh my god there's no way i could've explained that and had them been like oh okay
