I loveeeeee hanging pictures up a little bit crooked and not caring ❤️
Because if I demanded more perfection from myself I simply would not do it. And my walls would be bare.
But what are the consequences of failure here? What happens if it's not perfect? No one comes in here but me so if it bugs me enough I'll take it down. Maybe try again. And there will be a little hole in my wall. That's it.
It literally does not matter. Hang up your posters and your art and your pictures and whatever and make holes in your wall so you can look at them and feel happy and inspired and proud.
#this is a little bit of a metaphor for lettig yourself not be perfect but it is mostly actually just about hanging pictures on the wall#which I highly recommend#I finally hung up some posters of some shows I've been in and I'm happy about it :)#and now the pile of frames is off my floor yayyyy#idk if I can get a good picture of my wall without showing how much of a disaster the rest of my room is but maybe I will try

Auraugust Day 15: Rainy Day
Akira was soaked through. No one spared her a single glance; in the weeks since her return, her hair had grown out to the point that no one recognized her unless they were a friend or were looking closely.
No one in Labyrinthos was looking closely, and she was actively avoiding friends.
She heard footsteps approach behind her, closer and less harried than the scholars bustling quickly through the rain, desperately trying to keep their tomes dry. She was unsurprised when she turned slightly to see Hades, holding the umbrella she never used and looking very distinctly annoyed.
"It's foolish enough that you took off without a word, but you didn't even bring an umbrella in this weather?"
"In my defense-" Akira countered with the faintest of smirks that didn't reach her eyes. "It wasn't raining when I left." Hades gave a heavy sigh, moving closer to cover them both with the umbrella, despite the fact that she was already soaked to the bone.
"Do you realize how worried Hythlodaeus and your friends are?" It was chastisement, but his tone didn't quite match, softening as one snap later Akira was as dry as if she had been lying in the sun.
Yes, I'm sure they were the only ones worried. The sarcastic thought came unbidden, but she was absolutely sure she was right. She was learning Hades didn't really like to acknowledge his own feelings. Perhaps he'd had to bury them for so long it was hard for him to.
"I'm sorry," she didn't turn fully to him, not trusting the stinging in her eyes not to become something more. "I just needed to get out of Sharlayan for a little bit."
They stood quietly in the rain, listening to the patter on grass and pavement as they both struggled with their own thoughts.
"I just feel so useless," the words came out as a whisper, Akira clenching her fists at her side. "I've climbed mountains and fought dragons and now I can barely take a walk through Labyrinthos without-"
Without becoming too exhausted to walk back. Or to even find shelter from the rain. The pain in her limbs and her back that she thought had eased came roaring back with a vengeance and returning to Sharlayan had become an impossibility and it was embarrassing.
She didn't know if she turned to him first or if he pulled her to him, but then they were leaning into each other. He spoke of worrying others, but he was the one that came here to find her.
His grip was tight, though not enough to hurt, and it said So do I.
"Let's get you back, Hero," though the words were light, his voice was rough with some unspoken emotion. "Before anyone does anything drastic."
"Indeed," she agreed with a small huff of almost-laughter. "We wouldn't want anyone doing anything dramatic after all."

This seems like so much fun especially since I’ve been reading a lot lately 🤣 so imma pick Shinichiro for this one.
-Shin likes to listen to me ramble about my favorite books and video games
-When we have date nights, he always styles his hair differently even though we will be doing simple stuff.
-My favorite prank to play on Shin is acting like I got hurt. (The bruise prank on TikTok especially)
-We play rock paper scissors when trying to figure out who chooses the restaurant
⌱ TITLE: Table 7
⌱ GENRE: Modern Fantasy, Romance, Comedy
⌱ PREDOMINANT TROPE(S): idiots to lovers, strangers to lovers, soulmates au
⌱ SYNOPSIS:
It’s not everyday one unknowingly mistakes their blind date for someone else who’s also meant to be on a blind date, but it does happen to both Tae and Shinichiro when they end up sitting at Table 7. Despite having a great first date, both of them forget to exchange any form of contact, but luckily for them they run into each other again at the local laundromat.
Still, they forget to ask for each other’s numbers. And so begins a series of unusually coincidental but fortunate occurrences that bring the two together, almost as if there’s a supernatural being pulling the strings to help these two fools fall in love.
⌱ ADDITIONAL PLOT POINTS:
According to legend, any couple that sits at Table 7 of that restaurant is destined for a happy ever after together. The truth behind it is that one of Cupid’s friends, Miri, is assigned to that table to twist fate so that said couple can fall in love.
Tae and Shinichiro go on 5 dates where they forget to ask each others numbers. Miri has to physically put in their numbers into their phones bc she gets too frustrated
Their first kiss is also orchestrated by Miri, who presses their heads together when she notices they keep hesitating.
Tae and Shinichiro are both Miri’s favorite and most hated coupling. She loves them for how pure their love is, but hates them for how “stupid” they are about their feelings.
⌱ AESTHETIC:
#ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ amira plays#you and shinichiro are so cute and silly#so I think a cute and silly book would be very fitting for the two of you#this is loosely inspired by the show Romantic Killer#which I highly recommend#anyways I hope you like your book rec!!

I have a lot of favorite Vincent Price characters but I think "mortician who's tired of slow business at the funeral home and starts just fucking killing people to drive in customers" has got to be in the top.

Something incredibly satisfying about knowing your craft and the confidence that goes with it. Just the casual “yeah I could make that”. Want a band tee? Yeah I can embroider my own with the lyrics I want. Bridesmaid dress too long? Yeah I can hem it. Need new slippers? Yeah I can crochet a pair (and give them bunny ears). And of course it’s not perfect but nothing beats that feeling of being able to craft your own solution with your own two hands
#this was prompted by watching nerdforge on YouTube#which I highly recommend they just made an office with a bed that moves as required because they wanted the space#and the “well we want this so we’re going to make it attitude#I aspire to#due to space and resources I’m stuck with limited textile arts but want to and will learn more#want to also sew my own clothes but see above re space#so doing mending and alterations for now which is still satisfying!!!#plus being able to make all your friends presents#rambles#crochet#embroidery#seeing#questwithambition

okay so:
the year is 2021. the month is june. the new season of hermitcraft, season 8, has just started, and everything is great! the hermits are all messing around, having fun, building insane things within the first week of the server being active, and generally having a good time. everyone's collected themselves into little factions, pranking each other, and it's all the fun, lighthearted, mostly-vanilla content hermitcraft is known for.
and then the split between minecraft versions 1.18 and 1.19 is announced. the delay of new terrain, and especially of new mobs like the warden, considerably disrupt several of the hermits' plans. but it's fine, they'll figure something out, they're professionals, and it mostly goes unnoticed.
about two weeks later, on november 9th, grian turns to mumbo jumbo in one of his episodes, and asks the famous question that would seal hermitcraft season 8's fate:
"mumbo, is the moon... big?"
suddenly, the fans panic. they search back through videos and streams, and realize that the moon had been abnormally large and stuck in a full-moon phase since october 30th. the Moon Big event has begun.
this is where the roleplay really starts. once the moon's size has been brought up, the hermits start a weird combination of scrambling to figure out why the moon's growing, and how to stop it- but also of ignoring it, hoping it won't be a problem, hoping someone else will deal with it. the moon keeps getting bigger, more hermits start realizing it's going on, and a creeping sense of dread starts to grow. but it's fine. it's fine, right? they do little plotlines like this all the time. they'll figure something out, the moon will go back to normal, and we'll laugh about it when this is all over. it's fine.
and then, blocks start flying away. just floating up out of the ground, and falling right back down! like for a moment, a square meter chunk of dirt has decided it's a ballerina and leaped out of the ground! but it's fine, right? the blocks are coming back. no lasting harm is done. they're going to fix it all... right?
the moon gets bigger. it's growing every day- local hermit weirdguy joe hills measures it every stream. the blocks start flying higher. gravity starts getting... weird, with players getting the slow falling effect at random, and being lifted off of the earth themselves. the players form cults and rituals and whatnot to try and appease the moon, convince it to leave them alone, making plans to escape. nothing works. things keep getting worse, and the moon keeps getting bigger. but it'll be fine. these storylines never leave lasting harm, or at least they never have before. they'll be fine.
and then the blocks stop coming back, just floating into the sky forever. the players have the slow falling effect more than they don't now. the moon is now so big it's visible even during the day, and fills the entire sky at night. they start planning their escapes in earnest, and say their goodbyes. some hermits jump into a void hole in the overworld (it was the centerpiece of their village). some flee to the End, some to the nether, some just fly with elytras and hope they can get far enough away in time. one brave hermit, tango, flies himself to the moon in a futile attempt to blow the whole thing up before it can crash.
but in the end, the moon crashes into the server, and everything they'd built was destroyed. and the whole time, there'd been nothing any of them could've done. season eight was over, a full six months before anyone had expected it to end, and season nine wouldn't start until about three months later. and im still not okay about it.
(here's a cool animatic of the moon's crash! honestly i dont think you need too much hermitcraft knowledge to get the gist)
(also the moon crash happened on the day before my birthday lmao.)
….
holy shit
#ok ok let me see if i have the timeline correctly:#1) s8 begins in June and so does the new update announcement#2) months go by with no issue (that they’re aware of)#3) it’s in November when they realize the moon has been growing#4) does the moon crash in January???#but gawddam#that is one apocalypse story if I’ve heard of one#also fitting bc i think it was 2021 where we were getting a LOT of asteroid/moon fall movies#idk what was in the air (possibly the pandemic that led to unforced isolation & ppl coped with apocalypse stories)#and somehow that bled through to a Minecraft server???? somehow?????#wild#this also reminds me of an apocalypse movie i watched with a friend called ‘3 Días’#very good movie btw#highly recommend (it is a Spanish only film which i don’t think will be an issue bc subtitles)#anyway#asks#smp 101 with gumy#hermitcraft edition!

whatever. go my scarab
ive been watching scruffys pikmin 4 playthrough (go check it out!!!!)
#specifically referencing ep11 for anyone curious but i dont wanna spoil anything.. youll know it when you see it lol#ive never played pikmin and i already know for a fact id suck ass at it bc i can only do one thing at a time. i have zero dandori#actually i have zero interest in the dandori challenges bc im more focused on the creatures and areas. id be cooked#but its still fascinating to watch how the planning and strategy works in real time and goes so well with exploring#and if youre like me and has shown little interest in pikmin games his videos are a nice warm hug for looking into it#scruffy has a nice voice and explains everything like pointing out which enemies are from prev pikmin games and how they work#and pays special attention to the adaptive music cues which pikmin is known for and its really cool to see it dissected#his other videos also pick apart sound design in other video games i highly recommend his fnaf ones. theyre excellent#scruffy youtube#myart#my art#doodles#pikmin#pikmin 4#flying pikmin

'The Polar bear at Blair Atholl,' 2024.
#em draws stuff#the terror#harry goodsir#franklin expedition#a ponderment on fucked up polar bears heavily inspired by the 'nanoq: flat out and bluesome' art exhibition by snæbjörnsdóttir/wilson#short explanation of which is that it was a photographic survey of all 34 taxidermied polar bears in the uk#including the one the only blair atholl polar bear. yes it really looks like that.#(they fixed it up some in 2016 but it's still narsty. highly recommend googling this particular beast.)#this is what happens when you put a polar bear on display in 1786 (at the least) and you Keep It There for twohundredsome years#ANYWAY. hey mr goodsir why'd you go to nunavut to see a very bad polar bear when you had a very bad polar bear at home#<- JOKE. i am allowed to do big ponderment art and also have myself a little jonk in the same post. farewell now.
