Back to Basics

Hello! I cant decide between art or games so I try to do both at once

For my next trick, I'm going the fuck back to bed

Nothing particularly special but I saw an image recently where the cheeks and jaw had these absolute chompers and I really loved that idea so I've plastered that on one of my boys

I recently started a new job in retail on cashier in a dollar-like store and yesterday was my first shift! Let me tell you of the things I did and saw during that time:

- We had a woman bring in a monster of a shopping basket, the total came to about 245 dollars and 80% of it was crockery and breakables, so I'm putting other things in between the plates and cups to keep them safe like I'm at a Tetris championship game.

- Had several babies come through in strollers and shopping carts, were extremely cute and very well dressed, one was in a dashing reindeer onsie.

- Had a poor man cut his toe, first aid administered.

- A lady brought her own bag, did not want another bag (40c) for her items, ripped her own bag while packing her new items, got upset after learning she would have to purchase a bag despite us telling her at the start it costs 40c.

- Performed random security announcements over the PA, nobody was pinching anything we just do it to remind everyone that Big Brother is Watching.

- Permanently burned into my brain if customers would like our upsell item during each transaction, I think I asked at least 50 times over the day.

- I'D three people for buying bladed items (knives, box cutters, that shaving thing for face fuzz), thankfully we're all understanding but still felt awkward.

- Had a great time! Everyone was super lovely and supportive!

I want to do some kind of art project so ive settled on following the life of a Rather Tall Vampire while humans bother him but that also means I need to put him in some outfits

So far, we're not hitting the Historically Accurate marks but its Close Enough

So I was outside for that vitamin d everyone keeps talking about and I went to have a stickybeak inside my local op shop and I found this tiny adorable little lamb for a dollar. I decided then and there she was coming home with me but now she needs a name.

She's very resemblant to Nessie over in Loch Ness, so I could call her the Flock Ness Monster, but what do we all think? What should we name her?

[astrallar]

So I haven't actually finished a piece in about a thousand years, but I borrowed one of my older OCs and made him into a tiefling for the campaign I'm in! This is tiefling Mersey and bro is living his best life with that axe

Jewellery/Beads/Craft Tumblr I need your help please!

I want to make some really cute keychains and charms, but I want to make sure they stay secure on their hooks and jump rings. Is there anything here I can do better? Or any other advice for a first time bead-assembler?

Ok I need to show you all one of the most intriguing things I've seen with a kids toy because

This is Mama Hamster and she ☆~Magically~☆ has 2-4 hamster babies after an Undisclosed Amount of Time.

_When will they arrive?_

Well I can tell you because I was so impressed and shocked I needed to open this Pandora's box of hamsters.

I got her all set up in her enclosure, which came with these little silicone bib and bow for the BABY HAMSTERS. I also got jumpacared by feeding her the plastic celery that came with it because I didn't know her EYES WOULD OPEN AND SHUT as you fed it to her.

Moving swiftly along, you then fill up her little water bottle and slot it into the side of her cage, where the instructions said that it'll disappear all at once but let me tell you how unprepared I was for the speed at which she drunk it, like you would have thought she was doing a shot at the club with salt and a lime

Here is where the 'When will they arrive?' Becomes a bit more apparent because the mystery of hamsterbirth happens 60 minutes after the water drains, to which I forgot all about as I was playing Darktide and I got jumpscared by the hamster delivery.

Now I need to tell you, that when the hamster children get air dropped from the enclosure lid, I mean they get air dropped like a world war nuke from a plane. They get air dropped like they are being deployed to swat a raid.

Here it is in action the second time, to which I think they already got their kick out of scaring the shit out of you the first time so the deployment is instant:

Having survived all that, I hit the jackpot because I ended up with all 4 babies, she did not eat a single one and in so proud of Mama.

And the best part? This is repeatable for as long as your attention span holds. I did this several rounds more because just the way they drop from the ceiling next to her like the stalk from Dumbo was delivering express was hilarious to me.

But yes, absolutely worth the purchase of 30 bucks AUD because I showed this to my other friends who thought it was the funniest shit they've seen.

10/10 would air drop hamsters again

I've been on a binge about folklore monsters and legends and my current obsession is the Dullahan from Ireland.

Amongst the many wild features this entity has to offer, it has a primal fear or gold which begs the question:

Does the Dullahan fear the Leprechaun?

[creekfiend]

absolutely the worst thing that can happen to a person is to think "where should I put this object? oh I know, I'll put it somewhere intuitive and reasonable. I'll put it somewhere really convenient where it will make sense to look for it later"

[creekfiend]

trying to retrace my footsteps thinking where did I put this... all I remember is that I put it somewhere that Made Sense (derogatory)

I haven't drawn anything in a hot minute, but I have a Kris wip!

I'm pretty sure Discord has quietly changed their message notification sound ping and I absolutely hate it

Fabulous news everyone, I've found a YouTube video from Whimsicle that saves our ears from the horrid new noise by reverting it back to the old one!

I do not know if this works on mobile, but this is for the browser app

The TLDR: press Ctrl + R to refresh the app, as Whimsicle explains it somehow reverts back to the regular notification noise.

Thankyou Youtube User Whimsicle
