Or, chicken soup for the pornographer's soul | bi-bi-bi | PLEASE DO NOT repost my art. (Reblogs adored, obvi!) | The Umbrella Academy. Dirk Gently. Inception fan forever. Also Leverage, Hannibal, Star Wars, DC, MCU | mostly blogs about fandom, with occasional forrays into ADHD (late diagnosed) | I am an adult, and blog contains adult themes and language. I don't tag consistently, but will always tag spoilers. Follow at your own risk. My queue is hovering around 250 deep, and I queue just about everything I post. My wonderful flawless literally without flaw header made by circumstellars, and my icon was made by the glorious sarkywoman :D. The Handler was trying to protect us from 2020, and for that she deserves to be stanned.

Much Ado About Nothing Outfit is finished!

Doginlaw is weekending elsewhere so I tried on the skirt with the ensemble and I love it!

18 feet of hem!

The sleeves are very full and I’m going to leave them for now but I might slim them down later.

I remember someone saying “when I die, plant catnip on my grave. I want to be visited by lots and lots of cats” and that changes the way I see my own future death entirely

opened the comments on a post and tumblr somehow had a half written comment already autofilled from the last time I saw that post. which was at least two years and several computers ago. what does this site's back end look like

[mortalityplays]

tumblr is going to gain sentience 100 years before any fuckass genAI comes close. this site runs on mold spores.

was talking to a coworker and realised i could not for the life of me remember his name but i was too embarrassed to ask because we've spoken multiple times so mid-conversation i started concocting a plan to nudge the conversation towards the ID photos on our building passes so that i could be like oh my ID photo is awful haha the camera they use to take these has a real talent for making me look as unphotogenic as possible and then he would say oh yes me too haha everyone says that (because they do) and then i would be able to say well let me see yours it can't be as bad as mine! and he would show me his ID because we are coworkers and why wouldn't he and this would allow me to see his building pass which of course would have his name on it and then i would be able to say well yours is perfectly nice it must be me that's the problem! and then we would have a polite chuckle about it and i would have his name without needing to ask for it and he would be none the wiser and all would be well but then before i could execute this fine plan a little voice in my head went "so this is some light yagami bull shit you are about to pull" which was such a violent reality check it shocked me completely out of my embarrassment and i went "hey im so sorry your name has slipped my mind could you remind me" and he did and it was fine.

"This is some Light Yagami bull shit you are about to pull" <- Littany against avoiding small embarrassing/awkward moments that don't matter with over the top ass mind games.

Gale’s camp tunic is DONE!! Just under 200 (196) hours of hand embroidery on this piece and I’m so proud of how it turned out.

All that’s left is to finish the detail stitching on the trousers, so I can say with fair confidence that I’ll be bringing this along to Katsucon in Feb 👍 After over a year of working on this cosplay, the end is truly in sight!

By day I wove the web, and in the night by torchlight, I unwove it // ἔνθα καὶ ἠματίη μὲν ὑφαίνεσκον μέγαν ἱστόν νύκτας δ᾽ ἀλλύεσκον, ἐπεὶ δαΐδας παραθείμην

Odyssey 19.149–150. Emily Wilson translation.

a weaving based on Dora Wheeler's "Penelope Unraveling Her Work at Night", which is one of my favorite works that looks woven but is actually embroidered. I wanted to try out deborah silver's split-shed weaving technique, so I chose polychrome taqueté with linen and cashmere. I maybe should have chosen an easier technique with fewer colors to start, but here we are! on the right side, I left the uppermost warp threads bare to show the unraveling.

There's nothing like deciding you need to blast out a bit of Ode to Joy and THEN checking your work chat before bed to see that your morning meeting is cancelled and you get to sleep in. ON POINT vibes.
