ok so this is another long shot but a few years ago there was a twitter post (in japanese i think?) that had measurememts for how to make this book stand thing out of cardboard that you could use to double up books and use up more space on shelves

back then i made a bunch of these but by now i lost the pic and dont know how to find the original post anymore

if it comes down to it i can just take one apart and get the measurements from there but i would be very grateful if anyone happens to have the original post or something similar??

[megacarapa]

don't mind how long it's been since i made this post, anyway i realized that i don't even need to take one apart to get the measurements when i can literally just unfold it and refold it /FACEPALM

so anyway here is the diagram for anyone else who is interested!!

this requires pretty big carboard pieces, if you have a really big box or something you can make it from one piece, but if you don't, you can also just make each of the pieces individually and then tape them together

and then in the end you put it together like this!!

and then when you make a bunch you can put them all next to each other and stack your books like crazy

EVERYONE START GETTING MORE USE OUT OF YOUR SPACE NOW!!!!

kind of making me insane that people have been thinking about grief and death like this for thousands of years

Everything I know about colour theory I learned from this hellsite (ie I know nothing about colour theory), but this soothes me.

We're looking for artists and writers to bring the darkest corners of the Wild West era (1860s-1890s) to life. Outlaws with unnatural appetites. Cursed gold claims. Things that ride under the desert moon. Gunslingers who refuse to stay dead. Et cetera.

Merch designers and zine cover artists also sought. All styles and skill levels welcome. Also, this is an OC / Original character zine - I want to see a wide variety of both human and nonhuman characters.

The Hierophant featuring Larson and Yellow for @malevolenttarotzine!

Guidance and adherence to order, spiriutality? It all reads Larson and his obsession to me. He sits on a throne made by a mineshaft with hands of the people he betrayed reaching to the daughter he sacrificed. Behind him and part of the throne is Yellow/KIY as the actual puppetmaster and a canary sits on his hand as a fill in for the wand found in the OG hierophant card and his hands are a reference to that original pose also.

The Lovers for @malevolenttarotzine

John and Arthur and the journey from S3 into S4. Because imo it's why the real harmony aspect of their relationship comes into play. The BG is various scenes from CODA/S4 because of the journey towards trust. The flame because of the OG lovers tarot and the lighter from the show.
