I love dollhouses and miniatures, so when I came across this little witch’s cottage, I thought maybe you’d like to see it, too. 

Adorable. Whoever made this is a very talented miniaturist.

Look at the details- even tiny drying plants hanging from the ceiling. The most I can do is buy pre-made furniture and paint it.

Look at the fireplace.

Her bedroom upstairs. Notice her skulls and things in the chest.

Toads and lizards in the garden outside.

fun fact about me is that when i was a kid id write capital E’s with as many of those little horizontal lines as possible and id call them ladder E’s and adults fucking hated them

[alivehouse]

artistic rendition

[ceekari]

All capital letters should have a leveled-up form

So far I’ve got

ladder letters: A, E, F, H, T

humpback B’s and P’s get as many bumps as you think they need

circle O’s, you just keep spiraling in til you feel like you’ve made your point

tree letters branch into smaller versions of themselves ad nauseum: X, Y

spider Q’s, so many legs

Please add your own unsettling godtier capitals!

New alphabet dropped!

oh my god, it’s beautiful

(future handwritten notes are gonna be so wonderfully cursed now, thank you! :D )

[theshitpostcalligrapher]

well it’s going to take some getting used to, @ceekari (don’t mind the redacted letter between T and U)

But I think i’ve taken a real shine to it!

Guys, I have a Yahoo mailing list that’s limited to thirty people, but we have to be careful, so make sure you always put disclaimers on each email about none of this is yours and TPTB shouldn’t sue you.

YES, you have to put that on EVERY email, do you want to get shut down?!?

Guys, we need to keep the webring to a certain standard, so PLEASE no more sites with frames or pages with background midis. Not everyone’s browser can handle it.

Also, this webring has citrus, so be warned!!!!

I’ll be purging sites that don’t adhere to this request.

@smol–jelly I can’t-

[sarah-yyy]

Okay! I know I said I was going to do this early in the month, but then work got a little HMM, and before I knew it, we’re already at the end of January?? I guess?? Iust like that?? ANYWAY, I hit 10k followers just a little before I went on my 12.12 taobao shopping spree, so I decided to get some stuff for y’all as well!

There are two sets involved in this giveaway, a MDZS set and an SVSSS set, so there will be two winners! Make sure you indicate which set you’re here for by tagging either “mdzs set” or “svsss set” (or “both” if you have no preference). I will pick pick one winner from the pool first, and that person will be excluded from the draw from the other set to be fair to the others who have joined the giveaway.

MDZS Set

Wei Wuxian keychain

Wangxian standee

Bonus MDZS ficlet (details to be discussed with winner)

SVSSS Set

Bingqiu tote bag

Bonus SVSSS ficlet (details to be discussed with winner)

Knowing me, I will add extra stuff into the pack! I have……..a lot of Yibo cards that are just asking to be shared ahahahaha so some of them will find their ways into the sets, no doubt. Washi tape? Stickers? Probably!! If there is room for it, I may be able to throw some Whittakers in as well!

ALRIGHT. Now for some quick rules:

This is a follower giveaway, so you must be following me to enter. I won’t be monitoring this, but I’d rather y’all not follow me just for the purposes of entering this giveaway, because this giveaway is meant as a thanks to existing followers who have stuck around.

Only reblogs will be counted; multiple reblogs will still count as one entry.

I’ll give this a few timezone reblog runs over the next couple of days to make sure everyone gets the chance to see this, but entries will close at 12pm, 11 February 2021 (GMT+12).

This is open internationally! I will pay for tracked shipping from NZ. All the items are with me already, so once the giveaway closes, I’ll be able to ship relatively quickly (by 13 Feb, most probably).

To end this post, I guess…thank you all??? For sticking around??? Even though all I do is to write the sads to make y’all mad all the time???? And take weeks to reply to your asks????? And make y’all obsess over terrible cdramas with me?????? Jiejie loves and appreciates every single one of you! 💕💕💕

the sad truth about oppa homeless style

and the unfathomable evil that is reddit

last year my followers and i began an investigation into the origin of oppa homeless style and we quickly discovered that there appears to only exists one single screenshot of the mythical tumblr post:

the screenshot was posted to imgur on the 1st of march, 2014, and appeared on /r/thatHappened/ in a thread titled ‘Fedora’d villain shames woman for giving to the homeless’

to further our investigation, @swordcats contacted the reddit user who had posted the thread. the user responded, saying they believe they “found it on 4chan”, adding that it was “probably fake”

we still had hope that it could be a real tumblr post, but this confirmed our suspicion that it was possible the story was never posted to tumblr to begin with. 

we then tried everything we could think of to find any mention of oppa homeless style that predates the imgur upload, but nothing showed up

we even tried carbon dating the post by the shade of blue in the screenshot

this didn’t help us find oppa homeless style, but by comparing it to older posts we were at least able to determined that the screenshot could have been taken around the time of the imgur upload

an anon later messaged me and suggested we should take a look at the post history of reddit user MechaMew2

as the anon noted, they were a frequent contributor to /r/thatHappened/

here are some of the tumblr stories they’ve posted:

after posting 10 different MechaMew2 screenshots to my blog, i was contacted by fellow detective @bluesidefanclub who had done their own investigation

and the findings were devastating…

ALL of these screenshots are fake. all of the posts that arent a screenshotted reblog are his own posts, evidenced by the little x’s on the bottom of some of the screenshots, which used to be tumblrs old delete button. i looked through his ENTIRE post history and every single one of them that isnt a screenshot of a reblog has the delete button on them. none of the posts that are screenshots of reblogs have the x on the bottom, though, so i tried searching for them. ive been on tumblr since 2011 and never saw any of them, even the ones that seemed viral. i searched key phrases from every single one and wasnt able to find any of the originals, and the only images of them that come up are the ones that were posted to imgur and reddit. this especially makes no sense for the “AAAA IT BURNS IT BURNS” post because (according to the screenshot) it had at least 83k notes at the time of screenshotting. so he probably just edited those with inspect element.

MechaMew2 has also been a frequent submitter to r/fatlogic were they post similarly ridiculous stories intended to make fat people look bad:

Tumblrina gets triggered by nephew; Hides his homework under the couch so it can’t hurt her anymore (3rd of october, 2014)

Fat-shaming Barbie gets told off at the gym (31st of october, 2014)

nowadays MechaMew2 is mostly fabricating fake facebook stories about pitbulls (they’re a frequent poster to r/banpitbulls)

Diapered pit bull named Naruto escapes through a window. Catch him and win dinner at Chili’s. (3rd of november, 2020)

Family cancels their Christmas; Sends the money to Trump (30th of november, 2020)

of all the tumblr screenshots, @bluesidefanclub​ was only able to find one real post (which still showed the url of the person who reblogged it)

in a last ditch effort @bluesidefanclub:  

searched for oppa homeless style on google, every major image hosting site (photobucket, flickr, imgur, etc) and also did reverse image lookup on about ten different sites, and each came back with the imgur result from march 2014 being the earliest upload. i searched every visible tag on the post up to the end and found nothing, and searched twitter for “oppa homeless style” pre-dating the imgur upload and couldn’t find anything explicitly pointing to the tumblr post.

so yes…  i think we must finally accept that oppa homeless style was never a real tumblr post

oppa homeless style was made by a redditor whose passion in life is to make fake screenshots of fake tumblr stories for fake internet points

as connoisseur of fake tumblr story i expected to be devastated by this news, but really it has only made oppa homeless style even funnier
