Hello the stars "twinkle" at night because your central vision has a high amount of cones anatomically which are good at color vision but shit at night vision and your peripheral vision has a higher amount of rods so it's waaaay better at night vision than it is at color vision; so when you move your gaze around the sky at night the stars will always look brighter in your periphery than when you look at them straight on, so the same stars get "brighter" and "dimmer" depending on where you're looking in the moment. This is also why you're more likely to see weird shit at night in the corner of your vision. Not only do you see better in the dark from the corners of your eyes but also your brain goes O SHIT WHAT'S THAT and applies kinda spotty pattern recognition to like. funky shadows and branches. It's not you it's your physical anatomy and also evolution trying to keep u alive

If you're struggling to see like a small speck of light or a star or a comet or something in the dark, try looking next to it, or a little away from it, and see if that helps make the dim light a little clearer for ya. More at 12

I won't remember this when I get home but friends, if you like soups and other soft foods, please remind me to post the sweet potato and corn chowder recipe which I have lifted from the New England Soup Factory Cookbook. It is good. It is warm. It might kill a lesser mortal. Divine 10/10 so remind me if I haven't posted it by 6:30 EST if you are interested in Soups

This site sucks so I can't even find my own post about making the choice to personally archive the posts that matter to you, but here's me personally archive the tumblr posts that have mattered the most to me over the last few years.

Ahem. Stored in a binder I previously used as a prop for a Halloween costume.

So maybe I have to change the cover a lil' bit. That's future me's problem.

I've got a bunch of stuff in plastic dividers I saved from school, including @recoil-operated's $12 mead post, which I had to chase around tumblr for hours before I found a full version of.

See the full post

Google is free sometimes means "just look at the godsdamned Wikipedia article about this"

and Google is free sometimes means "use google to find a ripped pdf of a better source on the thing you're looking for"

And both things are holy and good.

My #1 post of 2022

"You can't magic away your mental illness and trauma" and "magic can be a great tool to help manage mental illness and trauma" are both true statements. This isn't a black or white issue. Something can be super helpful without being claimed to permanently cure you of suffering.

Everybody gon respect the shooter

Money Trees by Kendrick Lamar vs The Wire (2002-2008)

[protectorcraft]

what is the schrsto au (if u can speak on it).... stares at u with my wide curious eyes

hmmmm............................ wuelll i suppose i can speak on it now that its not. 6am.

ramblin under the cut lol

schrsto au (shorthand name) takes place ehhhhh about a year or so after the defeat of the king. everyone's in post game, more or less! the four saviors (mira, odile, siffrin, and bonnie), alongside nille and amber (a cat) have been traveling vaugarde for awhile now, and return to dormont at the anniversary of The End Of The End Of The World to regroup and discuss their next plans- whether theyll continue traveling together, split up for the time being, where they should go, etc etc you get itttttt

of course, once they arrive in dormont, things are going great! foooor about. two days. then things start getting weird. the group gets oddly tense and anxious, weird things are happening around town (have been happening since they left a year ago, apparently), and now nille's friends are behaving strangely.

siffrin's been zoning out more often and for longer stretches, mira's getting paranoid, bonnie refuses to set foot in the house, and odile of all people is having fairly frequent nightmares. nille- the only one unaffected by this (besides the cat)- decides to see if she can do something to help.

in her scouring for solutions, however, she manages to accidentally dig up something that should probably have been left buried. things proceed to spiral out of control from there.

extra little notes: - bonnie is almost always wearing the cape. they like it because its cozy and it makes them look like frin and belle! - siffrin's a bit more distant after they beat the king. it's not a severe change in behavior, but it's notable. he seems to be more nightmare and hallucination prone, and will sometimes zone out for short periods. It's Probably Fine. - amber was a stray they found upon revisiting jouvente. her collar led to a locked, empty apartment and the group came to the conclusion that her owner abandoned her while trying to flee the curse. bonnie proceeded to beg their sister and odile to let them keep her. - when it didnt work initially, mirabelle and siffrin chipped in their thoughts. and by chipping in their thoughts i mean siffrin bombarded them with nonstop cat puns until they gave. - nille and siffrin get along like a house on fucking fire. it's deeply concerning for everyone else. theyre banned from going on adventures alone together. they do it anyways. - mirabelle's just started to properly unpack her situation with attraction, with the help of siffrin of course. it's been going far slower, but growth is a process ya know? - odile had read the familytale she borrowed front to back 3 times by the time they left dormont initially. it's been returned, but now shes on the hunt for a new one. - nille had a crush on mirabelle for awhile, which petered out after mira came out to the group. now she has one on odile. shes being so normal about it. - the group has been tutoring bonnie collectively so they dont miss out on their education. which is to say its mostly odile tutoring them and the others being wildly unhelpful. - nille and bonnie are amber's favorites. siffrin is her least favorite.

@bylerween2023 DAY 2: SLASHERS, GORE & BODY HORROR

I'm an Evil Dead trilogy lover always, so a sort of... mash up. the intent is less 'this ST character as that specific Evil Dead character' overall and far more just 'put these guys in that situation': college students on a spring break trip to an old abandoned cabin in the woods gone so very wrong due to demons and deadites. a chainsaw is involved.

[I also wanna shout out this post from Robin @pinkeoni tht has stayed in my brain ever since i first saw it & is the reason Will's in the Ash 'they got control of his hand' situation here 👍]

And as anyone familiar with Evil Dead 2 may know, Ash cuts off his own hand when this happens in the movie, but… I just love the idea of the angst that would come from Will begging Mike to do it… being desperately asked to mutilate the person you’ve always tried to protect… needing the person you love to hurt you in such a drastic way just so you have a chance to carry on…

why do people draw will solace super pale?? hello???

[artblock-tm]

I’ve mentioned in my Ambivalent Souls infodump but I have a crack au that just inserts those OCs into the story of Death Note.

Hare is Light, Zerie is L, Midnight is Misa, Thirio is Ryuk, Attakai is Rem, Maroon is Near, and Feil is Mello.

I’ve drawn… a lot in a short amount of time. Haha. Whoops.

The au follows the main story of Death Note (the show) with some slight characterization changes. If you wanna ask me about it, my inbox is open!

this is a test

(Whoa Lepus art post, that's crazy...)

Here's my first ever Sonic OC; meet eccentric inventor Lavender!

Close-up doodle + few more scribs:

[thanks-obillma]

sketch dump pt. 3: character refs

notes typed out under the read more:

Vito (mostly me just trying to figure out his hair and brainstorm his wardrobe):

sticky up bits (like Mike, adds volume)

a lot longer than normal, can't really do the sideswept top thing, mostly just back

front hair swoops

stray bits to help cover scar, like Mal + Mike

Wardrobe: slim jeans, cuffed, holes or not depending on level [of fanciness]. boots, gothified (Mal + him share them). solid t-shirts (no graphics, maybe like race tees), muscle tanks OR. open hanging shirts. leather jacket as he gets older

Manitoba's headspace design, aka doodle w/ notes:

round face, a little stubble (teenage boy's first beard style)

locs ponytail (hasn't always been like that)

noticeable vitiligo

slim shoulders, wide hips

packs (big dick energy)

baggy cargo pants/shorts to hide hips

carabiners + pouches

wears Scott's clothes in headspace too

flat chest

Mal + Mike:

match the body most, "twins", designs and styles grow more different as they get older

Zoey redesign (sorta?) (also just hair notes):

kinda ragged, she cut it herself

about to have 18 gender crisises

bangs actually decent (she can see what she's doing)

is not doing all that in a strapless top

hairtie then scrunchie for the *Aesthetic*

very blunt ends

knows a lot of botany, can + will rant about flowers

Svet (more hair notes):

Mal's bangs split down the middle-ish, hides sideburns mostly

swept back rest of hair like Vito w/o the grease

longish in the back

takes a LOT of effort to tie/clip/contain for competitions
