Lord beer me strength
#I had Christmas with my wife’s family last night#however#this was not enough for my father in law who needs a Blood Relatives Only special secret side Christmas#so we’re having extra Christmas at his house today#then I get to have my three hour drive home#sir I already saw you for many hours yesterday#Ivan what do you want#what would be a good holiday#who are the people who would make it good#what are the activities#where do you want to be#I don’t know#the grave?#away from screaming children loudly smacking and slurping piles of sugar#away from children’s television and film#so much sugar#i can’t believe how much of parenthood is just a desperate battle with metering your screaming children’s demands for ever more corn syrup#’just don’t give them any’#well I want SOME#and more to the point#even if you don’t give it to them#other people do#can’t have it around because it’s all they think about and all they talk about#oof#i am in a dark place

do you make enough money from selling prints in etsy to sustain your life? how are you able to afford this beautiful house and time to crochet and go on walks and all of that? i’m not asking for nosiness but because i’m trying to figure out what i would need to do in order to make my life financially sustainable… is art an option… etc
short answer i mooch off my bf <333333333333333
#long answer part 1: i make enough off my etsy to afford my stuff (and i really don't buy much) and help out w th food bills where i can etc#i hvnt been able to do much of that OR save anything for the past couple months bc i hvnt been selling much BUT . things are beginning#to pick up again and i hve new stock to add when i get back from holidays :3#i have a smallish job lined up from my agent which is exciting! but hopefully i will make enough w her doing picture books etc to be able#to pay my keep / save more etc! i hve been anxious abt money this past months but thats just more so money for me to spend on small stuff :#i also dont drive so . i dont rlly hve many outwards expenses . im very lucky to have him hes very kind and lovely !!#if i wasnt w him and he didnt hve a house i would still b living w my mama which i did since i left uni!#long answer part 2: i always make time for goofing off during my work day. always!!!#part of the joys of being a freelancer! i can do what i want!!#i can share my routine in more detail if u guys want but i dont start work until abt 2pm-ish most days bc i dont rlly work well in the#mornings. when i hve more work that might change!! i have enough on to keep me busy but im not rlly hvin 2 manage my time u kno#im very very lucky to be in such a comfortable position :3 i hope one day u can be as comfy !!#oh also. i think once the agency work kicks in i will b fine financially ! and also u can absolutely make a living off etsy when its good#its very good for me ! i was very comfy financially around xmas last year i made a lot#u can do it u can do it !! art will always sell !!

I think mayhaps that Batman should exclusively be a member of the Justice League Dark. He doesn't really like working with people but also sometimes John Constantine is like "You know Batsy, If you help me save the world by proxy it saves Gotham" So he does begrudgingly. But only sometimes when they need help with some things because he's like a very good detective and sometimes you need that! But also mostly I just want the rest of the Justice League to not believe that The Batman is real??
There's an issue that they need dealt with and they think it's a demon so they call Constantine and he's like "nah mate, this is just weird ritualistic sacrifices, I got a call to B-man on this one"
And Superman is like "haha The Batman isn't real... Right?" And then they meet him and he is very much real.
And Diana is all like "Oh Clark you silly, obviously The Batman is real" But internally she's like "holy shit The Batman is real???"
Green Arrow still doesn't believe it because he keeps missing any mission that The Batman happens to go on and he's like "If The Batman was real my best friend Brucie Wayne would have told me so. Brucey said that the Batman is just a scare tactic created by the Gotham Police department" So he's pretty sure that the rest of the Justice League is just playing a long practical joke against him specifically
#justice league#justice league dark#john constantine#batman#I also specifically want all of Bruce's children to call him (Constantine) “Uncle John”#because of running bit where he insists that magic isn't real#'I worked in a circus Uncle John I know all of the tricks You can't fool me haha silly uncle John“#And John is like 'boy you literally watched me raise a zombie from the dead#'You have literally seen so much magic happen right before you're very eyes'#and dick is like 'hahaha smoke and mirrors :)'#I think Tim would have a good aptitude for doing magic so John is mostly teaching him things along with zantana#I think once Jason comes back from the dead he would be very strong at doing magic but also I think it would be very volatile#and hard to control#I'm imagining holiday dinners where zantana and John both come but they're not dating right now so it's very awkward#obviously Jason Blood/Etrigan are there#the gay uncles if you will#also deadman is there But I don't imagine he's visible all the time unless they cast some sort of spell#Bruce would very much like it if these people were not in his house all the time#But his children are attached so what is he to do

Man, Simon. That seasonal depression must suck for you. That’s rough buddy. No more Holly Jolly Secrets for you.
#simon petrikov#fionna and cake#I’m having a time#very ready for the next episode tomorrow#I love him he’s so great#also not that holly jolly secrets was a good time the first time#but now he has to be aware of the winter#and what that comes with#and that’s whole new perspective and I feel like seeing Simon in a holiday setting right?#I’d like it to be nice#but it would just have this undertone now wouldn’t it?#especially since#idk how much awareness he did have#that’s when Finn and Jake found out about him? and he became… known again?#other than by Marcy anyway.#but now winter is another reminder to everyone and himself#that he’s not that anymore#yeah.#thoughts.

I don’t play fighting games, but if I did play Strive with my friends, I know in my heart of hearts I would unquestionably be an Elphelt main. Happy Valentine’s!!
Also bonus shoutout to my aro comrades
#art#digital#guilty gear#elphelt valentine#ramlethal valentine#I’d been meaning to draw Elphelt and figured what better day?#& I was considering drawing her monochrome outfit from the previous game for the bonus but I don’t like that design as much#and I would think it’s funny cause I’m married and aro-spec but I wasn’t sure if it would be received well by others#(people get weird about my situation sometimes)#but also I like Ram so I just drew her instead#had a good holiday; went out to lunch w my husband and got a cookie#no candy cause we’re going grocery shopping like tomorrow and it’ll be cheaper then

girl help the content about palestine on tiktok is turning from actual journalism content and educational resources and organized ways to help to "boycott everything or you're a bad person and if you don't use a game filter that generates 0.00001 cent you're personally the problem"
#of course theres still a lot of good stuff on there regarding activism but. *please*#the all-or-nothing disorganized activism comes from a good place but can also end up being discouraging/confusing for other people#theres a difference between 'follow this concise list of companies with proof of supporting israel as best you can'#and 'boycott everything on black friday/cyber monday because its the same time as the ceasefire ignore the sales and#don't buy anything from these big companies just make this a thrifty/homemade holiday season'#even though bds has amazon listed as a NON BOYCOTT company#and some people 1.) dont have a good selection of thrift/secondhand stores as alternatives#and 2.) cannot on short notice switch to making gifts for everyone#(like me! i switched away from homemade gifts *because its too much to do in the holiday season*)#(and switching up what im doing to all thrift/homemade would *cause me to burn myself out*)#mine#tiktok#free palestine#boycott

rotating noelle around in my brain. i need the dess raises kris au to be real RIGHT NOW.
please talk to me about the dess raises kris au i think im gonna explode. also start writing it this summer maybe :3333
#chatter#drkau#posts that need context. basically despite being called 'dess raises kris' neither dess nor kris show up for the first arc of the story lol#it would cover dark worlds 1 + 2 + 3 which i would make up#and its about noelle susie and ralsei being the three closing dark worlds and becoming besties#BUT ALSO so ive always worried id never be as excited about noelle as kris#n thus do her poorly when shes literally like one of the main protagonists#BUT NO. IM GOOD NOW. I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IM GONNA DO WITH HER#what do you do when your entire family has been defined by a grief you dont feel. by the death of a sister and friend you dont remember#what do you do when their grief shapes the form of your life and you keep bucking against it#because now youre the baby of the family and everything is On You#and you finally FINALLY find somewhere where you can maybe be someone#only to find out that that world never wanted you either. that world wasnt ever supposed to exist for you#what the fuck are you supposed to do#ANYWAYS NOELLE HOLIDAY-DREEMURR....NOELLE HOLIDAY-DREEMURR I LOVE YOU.....#(ps yes she gets a hyphenated name i wonder what might lead to this....)#(pps no i dont know what kris's last name is in this au skull emoji#chara would take dess's when they get married but dess wouldnt keep holiday (or let kris keep dreemurr)#cause she did. technically. kidnap them oops)#ANYWAYS IM SO NORMAL ABOUT THIS AU LITERALLY SHAKING IT AROUND LIKE A DOG WITH A CHEW TOY

I have a lot of fondness for clunky Hallmark Christmas romance movies with rock bottom production values, vaguely established and extremely contrived plots, dodgy dialgoue, often questionable line readings, and child actors playing a kid who seems either three years younger or older than themselves. Hallmark have not undermined themselves with glib, self aware irony or attempted to "elevate" the delightful low artform that they excel in. Refreshing, honestly.
#netflix could never#they are incapable of that level of earnest storytelling#for this specific kind of story at least#because they think they're better than it#hallmark knows that none of us are too good for a movie about an autistic marine biologist#who thinks her best friend's brother ghosted her after they hit it off at the friend/sister's wedding#and *tells him* that repeatedly to his face instead of not addressing it#and he's like 'I definitely replied ot your email! you ghosted me! but let's let bygones be bygones. It's The Holidays' for the whole movie#and the resolution is that it got saved in his drafts#amazing#what other studios are delivering this level of banal miscommunication#what other movies have b-plots about learning how to be good at talking to interns as well as seals?#where little kids read poems they wrote at a christmas parties that sound *exactly* like a little kid wrote them?#and not in the 'kids who haven't internalised cliche yet can write some beautiful lines' way#mystic christmas: would recommend to a friend#there are no supernatural elements btw#that's the name of the town#which literally could have been named anything because it doesn't seem to be important to the plot at all#and no one makes any plays on 'mystic' that relate to its literal meaning

#so a little over a year ago i kissed a guy who i have known for nearly 20 years. on the lips#well he kissed me to be fair#after a whole night of dancing together and i will admit yes i flirted with him a LOT but. the thing is we have a weird kind of situation#because we aren't really friends but we share a best friend#and when our best friend was depressed we texted each other to try and think of ways to get her out of her funk#and when he need tips on what to get our mutual best friend he texts me too#and when we see each other at parties. well. the times we have ended up alone have always been charged lets just say that#and he REMEMBERED one of those moments and told me so last year and i was floored so i decided to go with it and flirt with him fhdshf#anyways. long story short he literally picked me up and pushed me against a wall and kissed me. and then. we shared a cab and hugged#good night and never talked about it again#i saw him a few months ago for the first time since That Night and we. did not talk about it! gfdhgd i am glad but also it's a bit weird id#and now he and our best friend are on holiday together and they are both messaging me and he just. texted me a kissy face.#and now i want to kill him (affectionately).#oh and he has a serious girlfriend so :) hgfhdhh i make such good life decisions don't i#i never told our best friend about the kiss btw. because she would kill both of us for sure#okay rant over anyways i dont think i will ever be normal about this guy. story of my life

uhhhh just opened my christmas present from my grandparents and it's...a rape whistle?
#what is it with this family and weird presents!!!!!!#'at least it's not a used dildo' <-true and relevant thing i'm saying to myself that is not actually making it any better#like who goes 'i wonder what this person would appreciate receiving as a gift for the holiday of christmas'#and thinks 'ah yes i know. a rape whistle!'#i feel like this is the sort of thing that a person buys for themselves#or maybe they receive as part of a self defense class or something??? but just getting one unsolicited is kind of bizarre#i guess it's good they sent it by mail so i don't have to figure out how to react to it in front of them

Nobody:
Me: what if child washed up on the island somehow and was amnesic and tests were done and the burns find out this person is related to them and woodrow is called to the island to do tests too and it’s found out he’s the father and had no clue he had a kid and child gains memories and their mother is awful and Charlie and Woodrow get legal rights to child and now Kade Dani Graham and Cody have a cousin to get to know
#BURNS COUSIN BURNS COUSIN BURNS COUSIN#I imagine this cousin to be a girl roughly around Cody’s age give a year older or younger#just; Woodrow is known as the ‘takes risk’ brother between him and Charlie#you know he had to get into all sorts of dating mischief when he was younger#he gets a girl pregnant by accident but he doesn’t know and she doesn’t tell him#she starts to raise the child and tells her that her father walked out on her#the mom realizes too late she doesn’t love being a mom but keeps child around to use her#I don’t know what incident would happen to get this child amnesiac and on the island but something happens#the child having good times with her ‘friends’ the burns who she’s staying with until she gets her memories back#and exploring the wackiness and tech of the island until Woodrow finally gets to the island like 3 weeks after she had showed up there#AND FINDING OUT THE BURNS ARENT HER FRIENDS BUT HER FAMILY#AND NOW SHE SUDDENLY HAS A DAD?? /HAPPY TEARS#AND WOODROW IS ALL well Charlie’s the family guy I don’t know if I can measure up but I’ll try to take responsibility; wow I have a kid!#AND THE KID IS ALL you don’t have to apologize for not being family oriented I have a dad now and your trying and that’s all that matters#SHE ASKS IF SHE CAN CALL HIM DAD AND HE JUST MELTS#She was going to travel the world with Woodrow but Charlie had a cow about her education and didn’t want her doing only online schooling#so they work it out that she stays with Charlie during the school year and goes traveling with Woodrow during the summer#and Woodrow also visits the island more for holidays for his kid#AUGHSNSAUAHABDVBADHHHH#WOODROW FLUFF#BURNS COUSIN#GIVE IT TO ME#Woodrow burns#Charlie burns#Cody burns#Graham burns#Kade burns#Dani burns#cousin burns#tfrb
