my totally random life

[dragon-in-a-fez]

imagine you're a fifth-grade teacher and one day a crow just flies into your classroom, steals some food, sits on some kid's head, and shouts "fuck off"

[inferentialdistance]

What asshole snitched!?

[queen-susans-revenge]

No, the story is even better than that! This crow lives outdoors, but he has a human family that rescued and raised him as a chick. He is highly vocal because he talks to his humans regularly.

They have some judgy neighbors though, who didn't love foulmouthed Cosmo, and who secretly captured him and took him to an animal rescue. He was eventually released far from from home.

When he came to this school? When he walked through all the classrooms telling the kids "what's up?" and "I'm fine"? He was looking for someone who could help him find his family.

“He went to the only kid I know in Allen Dale and knocked on the door,” Shattuck said. That was the fifth-grade classroom where Cosmo found snacks. That night, when the kid relayed the story of the talking crow to his father, the father called Shattuck. Colpron went the next day to collect Cosmo.

Cosmo's home now, he was welcomed back and fed sardines, he doesn't visit the traitor neighbors anymore, and those kids got to take part in a wonderful story about friendship, corvid intelligence, and Christmas magic.

Sunrise cardigan!

I’ve been working on this since June and just finished the other night! There are 9 different colors of yarn. I drew up the charts myself.  I also painted the buttons to match!

(prefacing this with saying that i did vote in the election) I think a lot younger people not voting has a lot to do with the immense frustration that comes with knowing that voting doesn't matter in many ridings? Expending energy that is already non existent to go vote when it's just going to get flushed into a void and not actually matter? It's exhausting. (NPD voter living in a riding where 64.2% voted Conservative, and 12% voted PPC apparently (that's terrifying..))

This is true, but so is this:

If young Canadians did vote for the NDP despite the odds, the NDP would win, and the NDP would fix our broken electoral system so we never have to play this game of chicken ever again. There are literally millions who didn’t vote, and only a few thousand in each riding was needed for the NDP to win almost any race, even in safe seats like the one you’re describing.

It shouldn't be this hard for the majority of Canadians to come together just once to vote for 1 party in 1 single election to fix this mess.

Random pics testing the jewish clothes I made today because I was watching Disobedience. (Everytime I see a movie I feel the need to recreate what I see, it’s tedious)

I actually wanted to share something for Rosh Ha-Shana, but I was busy with the internship (that I finished), and had 0 inspiration.

Anyway…

The black long coats with the FAKE shirt under…they were bathrobe. Lol.

Making that fake shirt cost me EVERYTHING, you can’t even imagine the amount of stress and time.

However, the “not so” talled is a scar from @confetti-ts4cc that I recolored.

The first hat of the young son is from @happylifesims.

Still much work to do, but that smile gives me the strenght to go on. (Lal)

I’m gonna release the siren eyes tomorrow BTW, I’m too tired now.

[mooncatcherscorner-deactivated2]

I’m improving all the items from my upcoming Hasidic fashion pack.

That lovely shirt it’s a drawing, SO the collar edge it’s harshly imperfect.

(I love how the shtreimel came out in the end, I hated Blender for a week, BUT)

I also started to made something for kids, but very few ‘cause the lack of EA meshes (all I make it’s retextures or edits of EA meshes) for them. Adults have like 30 pieces of stuff. LAL

“Rockabilly bombshell Sparkle Moore was born Barbara Morgan in Omaha in 1939. The quintessential bad girl, she dressed in leather (and often in men’s clothes), with her short blonde hair greased back in an Elvis Presley-styled pompadour. Dubbed “Sparkle” in honor of a supporting character in the “Dick Tracy” comic strip, she signed to the Cincinnati-based Fraternity label to issue her debut single, the hiccupping “Rock-a-Bop,” in late 1956, and though still just 17 years old she toured the US in support of the record, even opening for Gene Vincent at the peak of his fame. (A planned appearance on radio’s Grand Ol’ Opry was canceled due to a bout with laryngitis, however.) The sultry yet sinister “Killer” followed in 1957, but soon after Moore learned she was pregnant and abruptly quit performing to focus on raising a family. No subsequent recordings are known to exist, although an unreleased Fraternity ballad called “Flower of My Heart” subsequently appeared on several compilations, most notable among them 2004’s Good Girls Gone Bad: Weird, Wild & Wanted, the first to assemble her complete recorded output in one disc (including a handful of alternate takes).”

Happy 81st birthday to enigmatic platinum blonde rockabilly icon - and perennial Lobotomy Room favourite - Sparkle Moore (born 6 November 1939)!

I saw a reddit thread last week about jagmeet singh calling canada a racist country and the thread was basically everyone disagreeing and saying he was just playing to the left and it's an absurd statement. keep in mind this was a few days after the attack on that muslim family and a week or so after the bodies of those indigenous children were found 😐. this thread was just filled with canadians, most of whom seemed to be white, completely unable to connect the fact that the canada that was created through colonialism and genocide is still very much the canada today. white canadians have a real problem of seeing the systemic issues here even when tragedy after tragedy occurs in minority communities
