I just wanted to add this quote from the peppermint patty peanuts wiki page about Charles M. Schulz and his relationship with his gay cousin. The source here leads to a book that I did not read but the original source is Schulz's wife who confirmed this in an interview. If I can find the interview again I will link it here but uh. just in case someone tries to claim Schulz was a homophobe on this post again.

Hey! I went to your other blog to ask if you had heard the big dnp news and saw that you haven’t posted there (or here) for months! Obv you don’t have to post anything at all but I just wanted to check in and make sure you’re doing ok?

Hello!!!!! I’m so sorry that I didn’t see this ask the other day, I didn’t mean to leave you hanging — this is very kind of you to think to check in :) I’ve definitely had a lot of months of just not feeling like myself and not writing or watching my usual content and all that. I am doing okay! And doing better lately than I had been !! Especially with the big jolt of energy from this dnp news 😩

I go into a little more detail on a post here, but their news definitely has me inspired to push my brain cells together again until some writing falls out, especially with oct19 looming and I had meant to try to get a little something out for that at least before this!

Thanks again for lookin out ✨ I felt pretty disconnected from the community mostly because I was lost in my own head, but we’re a really special community that is truly like no other fandom I’ve been a part of and I do feel these last days like I’ve come home after a long trip away :’)

I finally got the tattoo of my dreams for my favorite author <3 I have been thinking this up for a long time. I truly love all 20 of Montgomery’s novels in their own way. Of course “Anne of Green Gables” is most well known; my personal favorite is “The Blue Castle”.

I wanted to choose a flower initially that represented each book, but a 20 flower bouquet started to feel crowded to me— I want this tattoo to be legible at the end of the day! So those in series such as Anne, Emily, Pat, and the Story Girl got one flower each. And of course, I couldn’t resist for this bouquet to be in the all-important jug at the center of “A Tangled Web”. I took a lot of liberties with it’s appearance because I don’t actually want something so gaudy as the real jug on my body forever lol but I think the jug my artist came up with from our notes together is ideal.

I have colors listed next to the flowers because I went back and forth on whether I wanted this to be a color tattoo or black&white. If it were to be color, it would be my first not to be b&w, and my main concern with it being color in the first place was to make sure the flowers were easily identifiable. Fortunately, I have an amazing artist who is skilled in botanicals and made sure the flowers are identifiable even in b&w.

Anne is the white cherry blossom because when Matthew picks her up at the train station, she tells him if he hadn’t come that she had decided to sleep in that great big cherry tree, all silvery in the moonlight.

Emily is the hop vines because New Moon house is mentioned many times to be covered, at least partially, in hop vines.

Pat is geraniums because in Judy’s window in her room she has them growing.

The Story Girl is canterbury bells because in the orchard she “wreathed her hair with Canterbury Bells, and looked like the incarnation of rhyme and story and dream.”

Kilmeny is lilac because the bench in the secret orchard where Kilmeny and Eric talk and fall in love is surrounded by lilac.

Valancy is rose because she has a rose bush she cares for while stifled by her family and it never blooms, and when she rebels she trims it all the way down in a fit. Then when she returns home after her own transformation, she finds the rose bush in full bloom.

Marigold is well ,, okay this one was a bit obvious. But I also couldn’t Not do it, was the thing, right??

Jane is a poppy because when she is back home at her grandmother’s after her life-changing summer, she brazenly wears a poppy on Nov11 for her father.

I couldn’t be happier with how this came out! I got it done at Lilith Tattoo in Seattle by Poni Colida — I am a repeat customer and will be back✨ I’m so in love with my new bouquet 💐🏺

Tumblr is the only place with enough patience to suffer my minimum effort Pictionary-style self portrait of myself in my car long enough to get to the ducks. I can check analytics on other sites that show most people are clicking away before the ducks.

Feeling art blocked due to stress from the upcoming Fanime Artist Alley, so I painted this scenery based on a photo I took in Japan. Nothing is more calming than the sound of water and leaves <3

AOGG (1985/87)＋Autumnal scenery

‘It was October again when Anne was ready to go back to school - a glorious October, all red and gold, with mellow mornings when the valleys were filled with delicate mists as if the spirit of autumn had poured them in for the sun to drain - amethyst, pearl, silver, rose, and smoke blue. The dews were so heavy that the fields glistened like cloth of silver and there were such heaps of rustling leaves in the hollows of many stemmed woods to run crisply through. The Birch Path was a canopy of yellow and the ferns were sear and brown all along it.’

Car Trunk vs Car Boot: A clear win for US English, trunk was already a thing in which you stored items, frequently for transport.

Crisps vs Chips: I gotta admit, the Brits have this one. They're thin slices of potato that have been made crispy. No chipping of any materials involved.

Car Park vs Parking Lot: Equally matched. What's a car park? A place to park cars. What's a parking lot? An otherwise empty lot where you can park.

Elevator vs Lift: Both equally fail to address that the damn thing also goes down.

cannot stop thinking about this tweet… AUGH 😭
