I made a thing a week or 2 ago. Finally got Tumblr to let me make a post again. It’s just an edit, but I’m pretty proud of it since I used MS Paint to do so. Also, @therealjacksepticeye said to be more happy with our art… I present: Jaune McLoughlin.
okay so we all agree that futurama is an isekai but what about an overly long and dumb title?

Undertale was full of raw ass lines and I’m sorry y’all are too chickenshit to acknowledge this because you’ve decided it’s cringy to like things
op is so right and here’s some evidence (not even a fraction of it all):
“I can’t go to Hell. I’m all out of vacation days.”
“Despite everything, it’s still you.”
“My brother’d really like to see a human, so it’d really help me out if you’d keep pretending to be one.”
“Don’t worry, my little monarch, my plan isn’t regicide. This is so much more interesting.”
“First, however, is as customary for those who make it this far… I shall tell you the tragic tale of our people. It all started, long ago… No. You know what? SCREW IT! WHY SHOULD I TELL YOU THAT STORY WHEN YOU’RE ABOUT TO DIE!”
“The more you kill, the easier it becomes to distance yourself. The more you distance yourself, the less you will hurt. The more easily you can bring yourself to hurt others.”
“If I were you, I would have thrown in the towel by now. But you didn’t get this far by giving up, did you? That’s right. You have something called ‘determination.’ So long as you hold on… so long as you do what’s in your heart…I believe you can do the right thing. Alright. We’re all counting on you, kid. Good luck.”
“I understand why Asgore took so long to hire a new royal scientist. The previous one… Dr. Gaster. His brilliance was irreplaceable. However, his life… was cut short. One day, his experiments went wrong, and… Well, I needn’t gossip. After all, it’s rude to talk about someone who’s listening.”
“You should be smiling, too. Aren’t you excited? Aren’t you happy? You’re going to be free.”
yeah yeah sans undertale jokes but “its a beautiful day outside, birds are singing, flowers are blooming. on days like these, kids like you, should be burning in hell” is extremely raw
Knitters be like “I’m going to tie a knot so elaborate you can wear it as a fashion accessory.”
Everyone else be like “Yes, but will you do it for me for free?”
In my limited personal experience knitting* is viewed very differently to other crafts.
No one has ever looked at one of my cross stitch or embroidery pieces and asked if they can have it, or if I’ll make them one just like that for free.
But knitting. Knitting is different. It’s seen as being so simple and, presumably, worthless that people feel free to pass unsolicited comment on your work as well as ask if they can have one. You name a price for doing so and they look at you like you should be able to magic free, decent quality, wool out of your arse so how very dare you suggest charging them for a scarf, hat, sweater, whatever (at this point you don’t bother mentioning that labour would have cost extra)
The one thing that knitting and stitching do have in common is the amount of people who will say: “Oh, I could never do that. It looks so complicated.”
.
BUT this isn’t just my experience of it.
My sister used to earn money making clothes when she was between ‘proper’ jobs. She never had any issues with payment or pricing with a sewn garment. She’d give them a price, explain how much the various fabrics, notions and labour cost and that was it. She only ever had problems with people wanting knitted items. They’d haggle over the cost, whine about how long it it would take her to make (knitting time was always given in advance), complain about the quality of the cheap ass yarn they’d chosen, etc, etc.
As time passed she just gave up offering to knit items for money.
Why has knitting become such a devalued skill for anyone who isn’t a big name knitwear designer?
.
*I assume crochet gets much the same reaction but I don’t crochet so I can’t comment on that.
I wonder if it’s so devalued because so many people grew up with a family member who knit as a hobby. That and machine knitting making knitted items so much cheaper.
I wore this shawl to my grandmother’s funeral:
Yes, her funeral. My grandmother, who taught me to knit, was in awe of this shawl. It is beaded lace and took me hours upon hours to complete. That is a queen sized bed it was being blocked on. If I were to add up the hours and calculate federal minimum wage (which is much less than the minimum wage here in MA), people just might choke
One of my aunts remarked how lovely it was, and asked if I would ever consider making them for sale
Knowing she was moderately well-off, not rich but comfortably middle / upper-middlr class, I decided to ask what she would pay for it
Keep in mind, hand knit beaded lace, covers a queen sized bed, probably 48-60 hours of work (maybe more; i never counted), took me months and months because it was done in my spare time
Guess what she suggested
Go on, guess
Got that number?
Ok, good
She suggested the grand and exorbitant price ooooofffffff……
$50.00
I laughed in her face and told her the materials cost that much (ok, maybe I exaggerated a bit. I shop sales almost religiously XD)
The cluelessness of some people just amazes me.
I tell people now that my knitting is like sex, if I like you and want to you don’t have to pay me, but if neither applies you couldn’t pay me enough.
I’ve got to remember that last one
Don’t ask crafters and artists to make you things for free. Just don’t. If they like you and you are lucky, you may get a gift. If you are not getting a gift and you like what they make, just fucking buy it, for the price they are asking. That’s how it works.
People have a stupid notion that, if you are enjoying doing something, then it’s NOT WORK, therefore it should be free. UGH.
I had an experience like @arirashkae. I crochet and a woman at the laundry whom I’m friendly with asked me if I could make her daughter an afghan like the one I was washing. It’s a throw that covers the top of a full-size bed with a complicated ripple pattern. Now, I do a lot of crochet and I could have whipped that up in three days, so I wanted to be fair. I totaled up the yarn in my head and doubled it for the labor. $250. Her eyebrows flew up into her hair and she actually said, “you shouldn’t try to rip people off when you’re just doing a bit of crochet.” I told her that it must be pretty good for “a bit of crochet” if she wanted to buy it instead of making it herself.
People who don’t do craft regard it as no better than the crap pipe cleaner decorations that they do for Hallowe’en which is why you just can’t sell craft.
A guy I work with – not a friend, not a close acquaintance, I don’t even know his last name – saw me knitting a hat on my lunch break one time and said I should make one for him, too. As a personal rule, I don’t knit for other people anymore even as gifts, so I immediately responded no, but that if he wanted to try making one himself I’d be happy to offer him some guidance on it. He laughed and said “oh, no, I don’t have time for all that work!” and yet for SOME REASON was unamused when I asked him why it was too much work for him to do it but I should do it for free.
Shit like this is why the default response to “oh that’s not a reasonable price for some KNITTING…” should be “Ok, then you go make it.”
One time I wore a small, lace shawlette I’d made to my job at a convent, and one of the nuns asked me if I could make 12 more for her just like it in about 3 weeks so she could give them to her friends as gifts, and said she would pay me $50 to do it.
I told her that the one I was wearing took about 3 months to make if you put all the moments I actually worked on it together and so, there was absolutely no way I would be able to make 12 of them in 3 weeks.
She got so mad at me, she reported me to the administrator. Fortunately for me, the administrator knew she was being ridiculous and made her apologize to me.
She reported you to the administrator like prime example of how entitled people are about this if I ever saw one
My friend was messing with Never Gonna Give You Up on her record player and she sped it up. It beCAME A FREAKING MAGICAL GIRL THEME.
Remember when I told ya'll last month to be ready to start looking for a Discord alternative?
Yeah things aren't looking good for discord.
#what is the alternative anyway
If you want a direct alternative there's Revolt, which is a free, open source discord clone.
Revolt is the chat app that's truly built with you in mind.
Oh...
It's even worse than I thought.
Time to go back to IRC.
I recommend Element; it's very similar to Discord and has basically the same features but it's privacy-focused and both servers and DMs can both be encrypted so only the actual users of those rooms can read the messages.
This means unlike most popular chat apps, including and especially Discord, Element doesn't sell your conversations or tracking data to advertisers, because the company literally doesn't have access to that data in the first place.
I've used it for years and I think it's a natural fit for Discord users.
sighs. saves for later
The problem with this is transferring YEARS of Discord usage to these new alternatives. Until a tool is made that allows full back up if not transfer of All That, then transitioning to these alternatives isn't feasible for the baseline everyday user.
