I feel like some people need to relearn Genre Expectations... "Man, this tragedy sucks!!! Why didn't they just do XYZ, then everything could have ended happily!!" well, then it wouldn't be a tragedy, would it. "Man, this lighthearted teen romcom is terrible, it's so sappy and unrealistic!!" Well, yeah. If it had been gritty and dark, it wouldn't have been a lighthearted romcom, would it. Is the writing actually bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot

My friends and I who live close together now have regular quarterly "council meetings" where we meet together in one place (usually our apartment but sometimes coffee shops) and discuss upcoming plans for the next couple months including any local events we want to go to, vacations, projects we want help on, and any financial or family endeavors we should all be in the know about. And like yeah, I know this is a super autistic thing to do (more than half of us are autistic) but I extremely, HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend regular council meetings for yourself and friends if you feel like sometimes life can be chaotic. We spend a couple hours just chatting and hammering down plans so we can plan around each other's engagements and also carve out time where we can have productive and fulfilling experiences together.

Proposing a feature for future games called a "no media literacy mode" where the rat from horrible histories pops up at key moments with a sign outlining the writers intentions and how the scene is intended to be interpreted so that people don't have to think about it for themselves.

I’ve been patiently waiting for a nice second-hand wood dresser to appear on fb marketplace or at Goodwill for months. Finally, I grabbed this one yesterday for $50.

My inspiration for this project are some dressers I saw at Anthropology that have gorgeous carved details. But I want my dresser to cost $200 or less rather than $2,000.

Of course I can’t add actual hand-carved wood, but I’ve got clay and some silicon molds + epoxy and a potential overconfidence in my DIY abilities.

First up, I removed the existing hardware and sanded this pretty lady down. She is now looking MUCH better without all those terrible stains (and the drawer pulls weren’t doing it for her, tbh).

Up next, I’ll give her a paint wash or three and start trying my hand at faking some carvings!
