After being sold out for over a year, 5 discounted copies of Tourist Type: Dead Motels have been added to the shop. Please note: these are SCRATCH & DENT copies. In most cases, expect small blemishes or bends on the cover. Otherwise the internal content is exactly the same as a "good" copy from the original runs. Here’s the link if you’re interested! https://vahalla-studios.myshopify.com/collections/all-products-custom/products/tourist-type-volume-1-first-edition
So excited to announce the release of Tourist Type: Dead Motels!
I teamed up with visual artist & designer Dustin Williams to create this unique compendium, which offers a look at pure typographic Americana through the lens of over a hundred logos and images from dead and defunct motels around the United States. This book is a love letter to the mom and pop motels of road trips past, an era of design that continues to inspire even as the physical locations themselves are razed year after year. Many of the beloved motels that you have seen featured on this blog have been included!
This edition is 48 pages, annotated, screen printed and bound in a perfect travel size. It is printed by Vahalla Studios and is available now by clicking here or visiting: https://vahalla-studios.myshopify.com/products/tourist-type-dead-motels

Are you excited for the Horizon: Burning Shores DLC???
Even if Kotallo doesn't get to come with us, we'll at the very least see a Horus move. That's all I wanted since the first game. :')
#update: I added some German Tourist flare to Kotallo#I'd love a Shadow of the Colossus type bossfight with one#yknow like different stages of climbing it and stabbing it or hacking while it's moving#sometimes get on the Sunwing and drop shit on it#mmm I'd love that#Horizon Forbidden West#Burning Shores#Aloy#Kotallo

Gojo as a merman. He's of the deep-sea kind: pale and light colored, with pale blue eyes sensitive to bright daylight. Because of this, he only surfaces at nighttime-- that is, until Y/N gets him a pair of sunglasses.
ANONNNNNN YOU’RE A FUCKING GENIUS i’ve been brainstorming ideas for mer!gojo but here we have it….. that’s him…….. i can see him wearing sunglasses SO clearly 😭😭 i feel like he’s super fond of humans (unlike sugu)… probably pretends to be a normal guy and shows his upper body while tourists are taking a dip in the ocean…. flirts with men and women swimming by……… reveals his tail to crying children super sneakily so that they’ll stop crying and cheer up…. parents laugh when their children point to him and call him ��mister mermaid” meanwhile he just grins and puts a finger to his lip teasingly <33 it’s their little secret!!!
no but he would actually be soooo cute and charming….. he wants to be human so bad he wants to explore!!! LOVES being a merman but like…. he wants to go on land and eat all the sweets he sees everyone munch on….. :((( mer!gojo is the most susceptible to a little mermaid-esque plot where he turns into seafoam at the end LMAO thankfully he has suguru and shoko to keep him in check!! doesn’t stop him from interacting with humans though…… he just wants to have fun <3
#my bigbrained anons how i love u so………#mer!gojo w sunglasses ohhhh my god#and the idea of him being more sensitive to sunlight is soooo genius?? he’s ghostly pale and his tail starts itching when the sun hits it#but then reader gives him sunglasses / he finds a pair by the beach and suddenly he’s out and about…. talking to humans……#it’s risky and i think he has to take lots of measures but he’s also Gojo Satoru so he manages lmao#probably uses his voice to hypnotize humans into not noticing his mermaid-y parts .. 🤔🤔#this au is so fun 😭😭😭 mer!gojo my beloved i know he would thrive as a tourist attraction#he would just enjoy the attention LMAO#the type to purposefully get captured so that humans will gawk at him <33 obsessed.#ask tag ✩

#my art#it’s mako mermaid au time let’s fucking go. but I ignored the iconic tail design from the show for reasons of fun.#grian#pearlecentmoon#geminitay#impulsesv#jimmy solidarity#goodtimeswithscar#cubfan135#so pretty much how it starts is: Grian Pearl Gem Impulse and Jimmy are all mermaids. Scar and Cub work at a marine tours/museum type place.#cub’s in the museum area and scar leads diving tours off the mainland. they decide to look around the island to see if there’s anything the#should propose adding to the museum or tours. they spend the night and Scar falls into the moon pool. he gets dragged back to the surface#and figures it was a really weird dream so he and Cub go back to the mainland. meanwhile Gen Pearl Impulse Grian and Jimmy are freaking out#about what to do because a random human just fell into the moon pool during a full moon. they end up getting kicked out of the pod to go fi#this mess. Pearl ends up getting a moon ring from (undecided likely mermaid watcher character) and they end up getting legs via magic.#shenanigans ensue. it’s summer so they’re pretending to be tourists. and no they aren’t trying to track Scar down to kill him. just make hi#not a mermaid anymore. he probably won’t die from it. cub ends up finding out about the whole ‘scar is a mermaid’ thing pretty quickly and#decides to help out. especially with the whole hiding it while doing diving tours thing. more characters do appear but this lot’s the main#cast of the au.#by the way. fishy order is: sand devil shark- epaulette shark- orca(not a fishy)- clown loach- eviota sigillata- and guppy’s

Forgot that the Hornsent has a vaguely Scots-Irish (?) accent and now I'm laughing my ass off at the idea of this guy absolutely losing his shit in the local pub 2 pints in

[shaking and biting] but what does it MEAN. what does it SAY what is the THEME
#akkdlflf i watched this long lecture video abt austrian national identity and the researcher said 'the austrians are quite adept at#selling the austro hungarian monarchy back to tourists incl ones from former parts of the empire... but even in the imperial nostalgia they#don't want back multilingualism or multiculturalism or any of what it actually was'#(it was a lot abt the way in which austria deals with orban's hungary in and after the 2015 refugee crisis)#ajskgldo and that just made me think about... how pointless some things feel. both in fiction and in academic research#you CAN say meaningful things about almost any topic and with almost any argument! but in some strands of history trying to 'uncover events'#with no exploration of the context and what it all MEANS and what the things we think about it mean#is the most prevalent and popular type of research :/ like there's a reason i overrely on hamann's bio of rudolf because her central thesis#is that he wasnt a crazy murderer but someone with a forward-thinking political vision that went as far as suggesting a sort of 'proto-EU'#among other things#so like. she is looking at what it all MEANS!!!#and like. my favourite todolf fanfics are also like that 😂😭 perhaps not abt politics but about suffering and power dynamics and guilt#same for original fiction. i'm never happy if a book i'm reading isnt saying something#or then again - this is more personal pickiness but. they should also be saying something NEW AND INTERESTING#a lot of the time. sometimes if you have a fave trope you can just enjoy it over and over#but idk even tropey stuff can say things#ajlsldkfkf i'm just so tired of kitsch in all its forms and also of bad science

every year i have to be reminded that spain/the iberian peninsula/all of southern europe i guess. is still viewed as a tourist getaway paradise. and that most tourists laugh at the "tourists go home" graffittis on many cities. like they truly dont care they see the place as a fun getaway and thats it. and my beloved tumblr mutuals and i have discussed it at lenght (bc lets be real most of you guys are southern european or mediterranean too lol) but everyone else just turns a deaf ear
#like i was looking thru the knitting subreddit and i searched 'spain' just to see if there were idk. yarn or needles or some types of recs#for materials or something. and it was mostly about non-spaniards TRAVELLING to spain. like i shit yall not most were talking abt#being able to take needles to the airport or flying. or idk. those types of posts. soo fucking grating. i wanna find stuff more catered to#me*/my location. and all i find is posts abt it being a 'tourist getaway'. fuck everything bro#z xarre

[guy who is always complaining about drawing backgrounds] well what if I
#hm i should make an original art tag#wip#ghaar'ak'tatoo#drawing a background is surely the best way to practice using a brush i am still unsure about. surely i shall have no gregrets#(i won't. because bullshitting cliffs is like my favorite type of background to draw)#there's sand cliffs in a beach i used to go to during vacations (it's a famous tourist spot of my family's hometown)#so i kinda love the look of sand cliffs#and of course i'm gonna draw my sand guy in my favorite sand#i don't particularly enjoy sand but it sure does make some pretty landscapes

#he probably said it to rolin during auditions and rolin marked it as another tick in his 'weirdo' box haha
LOL YES, I can so imagine this. I love that it feels like Rolin was initially like "no way, too fucking handsome" about Sam and then fairly quickly realized "ah, he is a freak, perfect".
It is interesting too because he talked about Sam's actual audition as Lestat feeling "alien" and like he was "other than us", and in a way, Sam kind of feels like that in real life? In a VERY different way from Lestat obviously, but there is something about his personality and way of being in the world (what little glimpse we get of it from interviews and such) that feels a bit unusual. The grave "forgive me" for minor slip-ups being one of those unusual things lol
Hahaha, I mean, yeah! He basically says as much in the section of the s1 podcast where he talks about casting him and Jacob, haha:
youtube
I love that Rolin brought up Starman too, because a) it's such a great comparison point for Sam's performance, but also b) I think it's a spectacularly underrated film and I really hope it gets more people to watch it! I think it's probably my favourite Jeff Bridges performance of all time.
And yeah, Sam's a bit of an odd character himself, haha. I kind of mmm - - I kind of get the impression he's lived a lot of lives, if that makes sense? Between growing up on a cattle station in a very remote (yet also very touristy) part of rural Australia to going to a (very expensive / prestigious) all boy's school in Sydney (and maybe boarding there?) to acting school in the UK. The fact that his brother's so much older than him and has been an acting literally since Sam was born too makes me think Sam's probably been exposed to a lot in that regard too from a very young age.
He's so private, it's hard to get a sense of it really, but yeah - - he's definitely a part of a few different subcultures in Australia that can often feel quite removed from each other, which is just kind of an interesting thing.
#i read an interview with him a while ago too where he talked a little about working at tourist experiences in the region where he's from#which a lot of actors at the theatre company i work at tell me can be quite useful as an actor too#because of the different types of people you meet#so yeah idk#he's a lot of contradictions on paper in many ways#it's interesting!#sam asks
