I'm so enamoured with this man

[fuckthisshitimin]

[ID: A sketchbook page titled "Quadrupedal" filled with several ink drawings. From top left to bottom right: A dog tag reading "Daisy", a rectangle filled with abstract worm-like spiraling shapes, a view of a house in a field, something round exploding in the distance, dark like a reversed sunrise. The profile of a shepherd dog and her shadow - or, maybe, another dog sitting next to her. Text above the image reads "Good dogs". The silhouette of a man coming through a door. The man is filled with abstract lines, uncertain. A pattern of worm-like lines. A dog tag reading "Winnie". A lighter and a cigarette. The cigarette is lit, smoke rising to the top of the page. On the lighter, text is engraved: "These things'll kill you, you know. Jamie." The page is signed, Meaningless Mikhaïl. End ID.]

So maybe I listened too much of The Mistholme Museum of Mystery, Morbidity and Mortality in a few days but I think S3E6 is definitely a favorite of mine. Yes, because there are dogs.

Every horror podcast should have at least one ominously engraved lighter.

for the last week of mistholme may, i'm finally posting this ux design project i did here!! its essentially a website design for the mistholme museum in-universe, and though it isn't perfect i'm really proud of how it came out ^_^ thank you to the mistholme server for being such a cool bunch when i originally posted this there :]

some pics are censored bc i took them myself, but hey its not not museum funkiness

the disclaimer section is actually up to date up until roughly early s6!! totally worth the effort imo

the weird video file sizes is bc i didnt standardise it and barely tested it but it's fine we ball (said with much stress)

michael afton is there bc it was the first filler name i could think of and i didnt end up changing it, apologies to the, if real, head of patronage

godfrey audio guide mention! i like the idea of them being a partner to the mistholme museum its cool

crystal skull my beloved, always destined to be incomplete

most buttons dont work regretfully, youll just have to admire the pretty text

the social media section contains weverse (social media for kpop stars) bc my sister thought it would be funny and it was hilarious to think abt kpop star guide

heres one more extra vid if yall r interested haha

Logically I know that the audio tour guide is in mother’s brain, HOWEVER, my brain doesn’t actually know how the tour guide got into her brain. Like, was he uploaded? Plugged in? How did it happen? So I end up just picturing her carrying around a mini radio like device. But my brain has made up many non-canon ways mother and the guide get around. Bellow is a few of those ideas, as well of some weird ways the guide could have gotten into mother’s brain.

Just a Mother and an Audio Tour Guide.

Found a new podcast I love, called “THE MISTHOLME MUSEUM OF MYSTERY, MORBIDITY, AND MORTALITY”. I am only on season 3 but I highly recommend it to anyone who likes podcasts. The scene above is pulled from season 3 episode 5.

One thing I love about the Mistholme Museum podcast (outside of the obvious part where it's amazingly written and has me in a death grip) is that when we're first taken on a tour the museum itself feels like a mystery, austere and magical. The exhibits are all neat and researched as much as possible and contained with the necessary precautions and the guide is ready to tell you every story there is to tell about it. Now I'm reaching the middle of season 6 and I know the staff, I know how the place is held together with glue and a timetravel loop, I know how the research department is powered by one lady's intense desire to Know Things no matter what and the museum's heart (non physical), soul (although that's an entire can of worms of its own), and reason for still being around is a non-gendered little fellow with self-worth issues and anxiety. And the museum is still just as magical and amazing, actually it's impossible not to fall even more in love with it when learning how much care and work and trial and error and pure passion is put into every aspect of it. We the listener just aren't a visitor anymore. We, too, are part of the museum.

the mistholme museum was the first podcast i have ever been there to finish— it caught my eye on the little recommendation tab in spotify, and i wanted to listen to something new, so i checked some stuff about it on tumblr and gave it a listen and holy shit i fell in love

i don’t think there has ever been a piece of media that has struck me as much as mistholme has. it’s weird, it’s cozy, lovely, strange, bittersweet it’s genuinely my favourite podcast out there.

i’m keeping this spoiler free, as i want people who haven’t listened yet to be able to know what they could be missing. i could compare it to other great podcasts— but there isn’t anything that matches it.

it’s made with so much love and you can hear it in all the actor’s voices, feel it in the stories, in the pacing and the plot, in every little detail and consistency in the strange little setting that the author’s built. it’s just fucking wonderful

go listen to the mistholme museum, it’s officially a finished podcast as of today

(and if you’ve just finished it, try dom’s other podcast, tales from the low city!)
