In celebration of TAFCon, I did a redraw of my very first Polly piece from 5 years ago.

It was such a pleasure to be able to meet @hellofromthehallowoods in person. 💜

This is the best tag I've ever received on a post, I think

[achillesinhighheels]

sorry i never replied. everyday is blending together and i'm losing sense of time

[schlarklezyaoi]

the fact that we only have “herculean task” and “sisyphean task” feels so limiting. so here’s a few more tasks for your repertoire

icarian task: when you have a task you know you’re going to fail at anyways, so why not have some fun with it before it all comes crashing down

cassandrean task: when you have to deal with people you KNOW won’t listen to you, despite having accurate information, and having to watch them fumble about when you told them the solution from the start (most often witnessed in customer service)

feel free to chime in i ran out of ideas much faster than i anticipated

[sherbertilluminated]

Promethean task: opposite of a Cassandraean task. You have the right information, and SOMEONE has to share it. But it's all in the delivery and if you're the person to identify the problem you WILL be hated forever.

[thearrogantemu]

Oedipal Task: (1) Attempting to avoid an unspeakably awful outcome and in doing so creating the circumstances that will bring it about. (2) Trying to solve an problem and discovering that you are in fact the problem you are trying to solve.

[theoppositeofprofound]

Odyssean task: you’ll complete it but it’ll take 20 times longer than it should and involve multiple side quests and mini-adventures

[goblinindenial]

Ah feel 'sif an Odyssian task is basically a poor sod mid ADHD

[haarlow]

A Pandorean task - just the act of starting it unleashes all manner of disasters.

[cyranope]

damoclean task: the thing you've been putting off long enough that it becomes a constantly hanging doom over your head

pyrrhic task: you can get it done but it's going to cost you

medean task: you can get it done and you don't care what it costs you

dionysian task: task that might not be -better- if you do it drunk, but -will- definitely be more fun

hegelochic task: it was a simple job, but your name will be recorded in the annals of history for how impressively you fucked it up

task of theseus: a project for which the parameters have changed so many times that you're not sure it IS still the same task

gordian task: ok technically there Is a Right Way to do this but it's going to be fiddly and awful and take forever and what if. what if you just said fuck it. and started slicing

The real solution to MB needing at least one thing on its public id

[nicolauda]

image ID: A fake X.com profile for "SecUnit". It has replied "not telling" to 11 categories - name, pronouns, sexuality, shoe size, sign, smokes, piercings, tattoos, fav colour, fav drink, fav food. It has replied "The rise and fall of Sanctuary Moon" to the bottom category, fav show. ID Ends.

How I simultaneously avoid and indulge in dumb internet drama.

I dont understand like 90% of the fandom acronyms people are using in the tags, but I’m glad it seems like many people from different walks of life can relate to this. I feel like we’re kindred spirits in a way.

[yujateaandpi]

Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.

Cybertruck. It was a cybertruck.

Dancing to the Golden Record at 78 rpm, with apologies to Bill Watterson.

Attempting to figure out how to draw Rocky by just kinda scribbling with a brush pen. I had to switch pens midway through the dance sequence, though, so the line quality varies wildly, haha.

Also: the original sketch, which I liked the energy of too much to ink over:

[ID 1: a tweet by miauravilhas with an image of a cat laying on its back with all four legs up, on the ground right next to a wet floor sign. The tweet, translated from Portuguese, reads "Poor thing, he slipped because he can't read."

ID 2: same image but the graphic of the person falling on the wet floor sign has been replaced with the image of the cat on its back. End ID.]
