#tumblr is taking over my life

Thinking about vampires, death, life, and the space they occupy in between

“I felt the red-winged man gaze, I heard him speaking. I know who you are, he said, there are two ways this can go, no, three ways. I don’t want to count the ways, I said, I just want to finish it. I need to get to the end. His wings lifted and sanked. Oh my darling, he said, you’re a long way from the end.”

— Anne Carson, H of H Playbook

Okay so I’m rewatching season 1 and I have to bring something up, so obviously the line “only love makes you that crazy sweetheart” is super important to us as bylers because of the crazy together scene. But, I think we need to talk more about the line right after that

“And that damn stupid”

This line is clearly directed at Jonathan beating up Steve, she’s calling it stupid and saying love makes that happen. Now let’s think back to just 2 episodes before.

Mikes response to Troy making fun of Will.

And then to add onto that, the scene where Troy and James track them down in the woods, in retaliation to when Mike shoved him, happens directly after the “and that damn stupid”

After working on this for weeks, I finally finished the ref sheet for my @infamous-if mc, Oleander Jackson. He’s the lead singer for the band Chaos Anthem and is, in general, a chaotic jokester with a penchant for drinking and smoking.

More info on him and the band under the cut! Also, please view in full to see all the details! :)

Name: Oleander Jackson

Age: Late twenties

Personal style: What he affectionately calls ‘rockstar grandpa’

Personality: Oleander isn’t one to let other’s into his thoughts easily and deflects often with humor. He thrives under pressure and loves to be the center of attention. His life goal is to become as famous as Misfit Alley and G Reign and he will do whatever he has to in order to achieve that goal.

Band sound: Their sound is like a more hardcore Lincoln Park with inspiration taken from bands like Falling in Reverse. They use a unique blend of rap and rock music and have a focus on political/cultural topics for their work. Critics praise Oleander for his versatile voice and ability to wow in either music style.

Their fans are known as ‘rioters’

Oleander is currently trapped in a bus with his ex’s band Soft Violence and struggling with his lingering feelings for the other front runner, pray for him.

Dorm Days Ch1 - Roommates?!

so i fleshed out a comic idea about my 2 OCs Mori and Juniper and how they met. it…wasn’t ideal for either of them. i really want to start exploring the dynamic between these two, as it takes them a while to warm up to each other. not just in their first year, but for a couple years after that. after they do though, they become quite close and protective of each other.

i'd love to make this an ongoing series so maybe if more people are interested i'll work towards making this a webtoon. but in the meantime, this may be a small series i'll use as practice for my main ideas for Starbound. thanks if you read this!

Quick question about a quick quilt...

I can finish a lap size rag quilt in less than a week, twin size in about a week, queen size in two weeks. It's three layers of fabric, quilt-as-you-go, minimal piecing, and they are heavy. Excellent for cold weather and folks who like the weight of blankets but not weighted blankets.* These quilts aren't as hot as layers of fabric plus beads/pellets, and they breathe much more effectively. For a heavier rag quilt, it's a layer of denim and two layers of quilting cotton or flannel. I have a rag quilt for myself that's three layers of quilting cotton. My house is drafty and winters are full of rain, which means the cold sinks into your bones with the humidity. My husband keeps stealing my quilt because his man-cave is the coldest room in the house. He doesn't care that it's very feminine colors "because it's warm."

As for why it's called a rag quilt, here's a sample:

The top is the fluffy side with the exposed seams. Instead of a quarter inch seam allowance the seams under the fabric, it's a one inch seam allowance and the seams are exposed. Said seams are then cut at one inch intervals. With every washing, the seams get fuzzier and softer. They're fun to touch and feel really nice. It's also why these must be dried ALONE or all the strings will end up on whatever else is in the dryer. Three layers of fabric also means two rounds in the dryer on high heat (which is why I like using flannel rather than quilting cotton) or one round of high heat and hanging to dry for a couple hours.

The back looks like a more traditional quilt top and is often the side with denim on it if denim is used. The one is three layers of flannel and was a giveaway prize earlier this year, to celebrate meeting a ko-fi goal.

These are a delight to make and excellent for cold winters and drafty homes. Did I mention they're pretty heavy? The one I have, once all folded up, weighs about six pounds, and knocks my husband out within about ten minutes of him laying over himself. It's why I plan on making a rag quilt for him. He keeps stealing mine.

For context regarding prices, these take significantly less time to make. This one, a lap size, took just 14.5 hours, and that included the quilting. A traditional style baby quilt starts at $2125 because I have a lot more cutting and sewing, and I do the quilting by hand (though it will soon change due to soon having a machine I can use on my Cutie frame and do all my quilting on it), and can take 70-80 hours start to finish. I charge $27/hour + cost of materials to come to the final price.

*A PT I know hates weighted blankets because they cause a lot of injuries. People rolling in bed with a weighted blanket on them have ended up in physical therapy because of soft tissue tears. Most especially dangerous for people with EDS and other connective tissue conditions. Other injuries they've seen are from the pockets with the beads/pellets in them tearing open. Pets and small children have been known to choke on those, and folks who are heavy sleepers can also be injured if the pockets near their face tear in their sleep. When the beads/pellets get all over the floor, people fall and end up with serious injuries from that. Not to mention overheating under all of them because the material doesn't breathe well.
