Its time for Christmas alts in FEH, but Christmas is my least favorite theme of the year so instead I've drawn my favorite theme!

Bunnies!!

...at this rate I'm gonna end up drawing a design for every one of FEH's seasonal events!

Spring | Wedding | Summer | Resplendent 1 | Resplendent 2 |

overconsumption in rich countries is chronic and unsustainable but by that I mean if we keep going it'll kill us. with this in mind it's pretty unfortunate how fashion brands have bred a youth culture where personal expression (and even personhood as a whole?) is based primarily on how one dresses, but in this case it doesn't at all mean making or modifying or repurposing older clothes as many past protest subcultures did, it just means buying loads of stuff you don't need and calling it core to your sense of self. the whole seasonal collection changeovers the industry does is already terrible but the fact it doesn't seem like more young people are vocally calling out this manufactured identity making is pretty dire. like this is co-optation of self-expression by multiple industries... I'm almost anti-consumption at this point like we just don't need any of this stuff )):

like yes buying secondhand is good but even better would be to not base your self-expression on mix-and-match clothing items or aesthetics or whatever to begin with. free your mind, instead become known as the woman who can identify all the regional plants or rock climb or something

fyi the type is "could snap his pathetically posh and scrawny frame like a twig simply by picking him up and squeezing him in a hug that's a little too tight. and would do it too. on purpose". georgies got it on the money

Food in Venice is heavily seafood dominated, being that the city is man-made islands on the sea with no growing space of their own

Red Lobster was founded in 1968 and thus was already an established chain seafood restaurant in the US in the 70s and 80s

Armand enjoys having secondhand experiences via Daniel and would likely want to re-experience food familiar to him (seafood) served in 'modern' popular styles

Ipso facto, how many times was Daniel subjected to endless shrimp at different Red Lobster locations before the fascination of seeing the exact same restaurant in different places wore off for Armand and how unwell does the mere scent of cocktail sauce now make Daniel feel?

bone-stealing witch drama? old news

artist who makes zombie baby doll repaints buying human body parts from a doctor who worked at Harvard's cadaver lab, and who sometimes let her come in and examine the donated-to-science bodies to pick the bits she wanted? fresh, new, even more fucking bizarre and horrifying

EDIT: THE DOLLS ARE UNRELATED TO THE HUMAN BODY PARTS

ONLY ONE DOLL WAS EVER SOLD WITH A HUMAN BODY PART (A SKULL) THAT I HAVE HEARD OF

INTERESTING THAT PEOPLE'S MINDS IMMEDIATELY GO THERE, BUT I NEVER SAID THAT AND NONE OF THE ARTICLES INDICATE IT

What words are you bringing into 2025, S?

Hahah perfect timing. So every year two friends and I choose vision words - this started like 5 years ago as a fairly ironic exercise but now it's not ironic at all 😂. Sometimes your vision word gets derailed and we still don't take them that seriously but I do think it's a fun way to bring a little intention into the new year. And we've just started discussing this year's set!

Last year I was thinking about the idea of planting seeds, building new connections and laying good foundations, so I went with Germinate. Which turned out to be a pretty good summation of my year, even with some major disruptions to the plan!

This year, I'm thinking Bloom. I want something that's joyful and about like experiencing life, being present, letting good things in. 2025 - New year, new decade. Bring it on.

stan's euphoria when he realises that he can just get a gold tooth for himself

i thought it would be nice to share two projects i made in art class this semester!

title: angel of change

this one's a fun collage/sculpture about the positive and negative changes one can go through when starting college! featuring a nervous little peg person on the road, a surge of waves, and a biblically accurate pet rock angel smoking a cigarette

title: wing surfaces of morpho didius

and this is a sculpture of a morpho butterfly! with its ventral wing surfaces (the visible side of the wings) painted realistically, and with its dorsal wing surfaces (the hidden side of the wings) covered with messily-colored butterfly coloring book pages. the idea here is that my fascination with butterflies, despite being very scientific now, is still one imbued with naïveté, playfulness, and childlike wonder :)
