@jaygagen
what a deal.
And then your hip would break because their medical staff is garage and they donāt have the same regulations as over so no youāre back to square one you fucking tool
that is american propaganda used to justify their lack of a working healthcare system. itās not true and even if it was what good would having slightly better healthcare do if itās only accessible by the richest members of society?
You absolute fucking clown. Lmao
Damn. Spains healthcare sure isnt garage like they said
God Americans are so fucking brainwashed like seriously imagine thinking a first world country in Europe of all places is medically inferior, the patriot brain rot is strong
The rich have spent the entire history of the United States selling the lie of American exceptionalism to the population in order to keep fleecing the brainwashed and stop us from correcting their corruption.
Extremely City white people are so fucking weird they see a pic of a deer and theyre like āits an Old God, tell me the wisdom of the trees Forest Lord ⦠wow this is just like game of thronesā its a deer. Its a fucking stupid idiot animal it doesnt know shit
Yes deer are dumb panicky dinguses in real life, but sometimes a picture will capture one looking all majestic and we just⦠want to believeā¦
Case in point: this dude
Yes he got like that by being so hormonally addled that he tried to fight a tree. But try to tell me a forest god wouldnāt have big leafy antlers just like that if he were to take a physical form.
who says the old gods arenāt stupid animals who are so hormonally addled theyād try to fight a tree
@librariansheart for your enjoyment
Look, Iāve lived a good chunk of my childhood in a halfway abandoned mountain village in the middle of nowhere. Which meant wildlife galore whether you liked it or not.
And that meant sometimes we saw a deer in the middle of the road at midnight and the majestic motherfucker just stared us down until my mom shredded our tires to stop from hitting him. Once we stopped he did a little half-bow as if saying āYou have not committed an act of godslayer this night. Your bloodline shall bear no curse of mineā, and walked away chill as you please.
The next day a neighbor told us a deer with fucking big antlers got tangled in his fence because it was trying to steal his grapes.
I went on a hike with another neighbor to collect yarrow for tea. A bear came out of the woods towards us, went on its hind legs and inquiringly roared. And he pushed me, tiny as I was back then, behind me out of sight and spread his jacket wide to make himself seem bigger than he already was. He let out a sound I had not known humans were capable of making. He and the bear looked at each other for a moment, and came to an understanding. The bear went down and walked away, respecting a powerful opponent protecting its young.
A week ago, there had been a bear that completely tore apart our trashcan and gorged itself on half-fermented apples we threw away. My cousin had to chase it away, drunk out of its tiny fucking mind, with an umbrella that made weird noises when opened. The bear ran for its life, crashed into our wall, fell on its ass, and scampered away.
I was playing on a swing once, all alone, and a fox came up to me, the most beautiful animal I had seen in my ten years of life. Thinking it wanted to pass, I stopped swinging and sat still not to spook it. But instead of passing, the fox circled the swing, found it wanting, and came to sit before me perfectly poised and looked me in the eye, and I could swear it wished to tell me something but I could not understand the language spoken before human time.
Then my mom came out of the nearby inn, shrieked at the fox and swung her purse to chase it away. The fox jumped, ran off and fell into a ditch, all notions of grace gone with the wind.
What Iām saying is: the old gods are absolutely idiot animals who embraced the life of constant sex and hedonism in return for losing their higher power. Whether or not they regret it, weāll never know.
@thegreenchapel
Well the Old Gods are old. In the same way your grandparents are old. Theyāre a font of experience and wisdom, theyāve survived wars, famine, povertyābut theyāre thwarted by a smartphone. The Great Stag understands ācarā in the same way he understands āchallenger.ā He understands āfenceā in the same way he understands ābramblesā or āunderbrush.ā He can handle plant fiber in his way but metal might be a bit beyond him. The Old Gods understand their ways. The Great Stag can can give you the wisdom of being a stag, but humans arenāt stags, so not all of his wisdom applies to our experience. If you promise not to hunt in his forest for a year and a day, heāll show the trails his herd uses so that you can get out of the woods faster. Maybe youāll keep that memory, maybe you wonāt. If you do remember, you are responsible for being a stewart.
Some believe the Old Gods are living gods. Thereās no one single Mother Bear. Itās a title that gets passed on. The beings are inhabited by divine force much older and deeper than any human can imagine. Picture a pebble being thrown into a pond. Each new incarnation is like a new ripple expanding outward. If the Old Gods are living beings then they are limited and falliable. They make mistakes and are prone to embarrassment. Like we all are. Instead of merely venerating them, sympathize with them.
Behold, the rare sight of an Old God interacting with something new:

my sense of humor: getting birthday cards with the wildly incorrect age on it for people
I see this and raise you: getting cards for a wildly different occasion and customizing them to fit the holiday you need
throwback to the time my partner put in his 2 week notice with a birthday card for a 2 year old
Once I got a card that said āBEST GREAT GRANPA EVER!!ā
Iām a teenager
Iāve been doing this for my dadās birthday the last few years.
Itāll get old one day, but today is not that day.
IM GOING TO LOOSE IT ALL OF THESE ARE GOLD AND SHOULD BE HUNG UP IN A SPECIAL PLACE
I have a favourite mug.
I get very upset when people use my mugs
One time my brotherās friend used my mug (because someone had put it in the cupboard) and I was quite uncomfortable the whole time.Ā Mine looks like this, and was a collaboration between me and a friend in the pottery studio when we were in college in 2017. He made the mug and put the decal on, which was from a drawing I did specifically to fit it, and in exchange I screenprinted some shirts for him.
What a delightful mug!
Thank you! I just realized that since I still have the scanĀ I can add it to redbubble. It doesnāt fit on the travel mugs, but almost the whole thing fits onto the regular one!
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the WHY IS IT ALWAYS RAINING
Visible Mending
Introduction:
Visible mending is a decorative way to fix up an item. Instead of trying to make your mend as invisible as possible, the idea is to make it part of the garment's design.
Visual mending is not a single technique: it's more of a mindset. If you've got an item you love, it deserves to be mended, and if you're going to put that love into stitches, why not show them off?
That being said, there are some specific techniques that are popular with visible menders. Let's take a look!
Sashiko:
Sashiko is a type of traditional Japanese embroidery that is used to both decorate and reinforce fabric. In visible mending, sashiko is often used to cover up holes with patches or to reinforce thinning fabric. This technique uses a variation on the running stitch.

Embroidery:
Regular embroidery is also a popular technique to accentuate your mends. Check out my embroidery 101 post to learn how to get started. You can embroider patches, or use embroidery to hide or accentuate any stitches you've made to fix holes. Embroidery's also a great way to cover up stains.

Patches:
There are many ways to add patches to a garment. My tutorial on patches is a good place to start if you want to make custom-shaped patches to sew on top of your fabric. You can also sew your patch on the inside of your garment and have it peek out from beneath the hole you're trying to fix. Fun ideas for this are lace or superheroes.

Darning:
Darning is a technique used to repair holes in fabric by using running stitches to weave extra fabric over the hole as to fill it up again. While traditionally darning is done in an invisible way by using the same colour of thread as your fabric, you can also use contrasting colours to accentuate your fix. Check out this written tutorial on darning by TheSpruceCrafts.

Conclusion:
Visible mending is a creative way to fix up your clothes and give them some personality at the same time.
You should be proud of the fact that you took the time and learned the necessary skills needed to mend your clothes! Show off what you did!
A fun side effect of wearing these obvious mends is that people will notice them. They'll remember your fixes the next time they're faced with a hole in their wardrobe, and it will make them more likely to try it for themselves.
These are just a few ways to visibly mend your garments. Want more inspiration? Check out Pinterest or r/Visiblemending on Reddit.

World Heritage Post
like actually though. iām in AWE of the notecount.
A Twitter user saw an ad for this neat, unassuming house for sale for less than $159,000.Ā
It had a beautiful yard, so he made an appāt to see it. And, thatās when things got weird.Ā
The living room was messy and tacky, but it had a nice spiral staircase, an open 2nd fl. balcony, and Mediterranean style.Ā
But what was up with this mural of outer space?
And these 2 creepy homemade aliens?
Well, the space theme continued into the dining room. The mural made it look like you were in a spaceship that landed on the moon- see earth off in the distance?
Hmmm. This looks like the conference room in a space ship.Ā
The kitchen is plain, but still has a few touches, as well as aĀ āsealedā hatch door.Ā
What, you say you like the beach? This house has you covered. The bedroom has a waterbed and thatās real sand on the floor.Ā
The bathroom is a tropical rain forest.Ā
This 2nd bedroom is beautifully staged in a hippie retro theme- notice the square bed- it must be a cardboard box.
Look, this spare room is a blank canvas- you can make it anything you like.
And, I donāt know what this is on the mezzanine.Ā
The back of the house is nice, but itās a little overgrown- the ivy is starting to cover some of the windows. It was sold for $152,500.

Whatever the reason, itās clear that these people were living their absolute best life.
thatās an Animal Crossing house
Come with me, friendsā¦
To this house. Not a contemporary house, and the pentagons of those two windows on the left are a little unusual, but not particularly notable.
The sides of the steps to the front entrances are painted purple. Thatās a little interesting.
Oh?
OHHHH YEEEESSSSSSS
POUR THAT PURPLE CARPET ON ME BABY (also that fireplace FUCKS)
You thought youād bring your own furniture to this house? No. Only built-in seating covered with orange-pattered carpet in the purple living room.
This is where things start to get a little surreal to me. This house was built in 1975. But look how bright and new that carpet looks! It still matches the light fixture! And itās in the kitchen! It looks like it was never used (weird), or that it was REPLACED recently (WEIRDER BY FAR).
This is actually a lovely bright dining space, if you can ignore the purple carpet of the living room running up against the blue carpet of the kitchen. As sometimes happens in a house.
Thatās a new toilet. And thatās purple carpet in the bathroom. And a pink sink where the material reminds me of tiny independent movie theaters or hole-in the wall restaurants.
The only way to move between the three floors of this house, friends and foes. I have one drink and Iām sleeping on the orange built-in seating for my safety.
And nowā¦pink. (And some sliding doors which I hope open onto a balcony but I donāt SEE anything like a balcony railing.)
Stepping back, Iām still having trouble interpreting this room. My best guess is that itās the main bedroom, with a semi-public area at the top of the stairs and then this is the more private area where the bed would go. But itās not actually walled off. The decorative light switch cover shaped like a regular house is a nice touch.
Friendsā¦
This is a lot. I genuinely now start to think that this house was inhabited by beings that DID NOT USE BATHROOMS nor did they UNDERSTAND what bathrooms were used for. That carpet is so bright! So fluffy! It shouldnāt look that way if itās original, and WHO WOULD HAVE MADE THIS DECISION MORE THAN ONCE??? And it. It doesnāt even match the shade of pink around the tub. And the blue tile in the tub doesnāt match anything. Thā¦the shower head. Is there. But there is no place to hang a curtain around the tub. IN A CARPETED BATHROOM. There are so many signs of remodeling, and yetā¦the bathroom is stillā¦this.Ā
Non-Euclidian closet. First non-carpeted room we have seen.
I run from the non-Euclidean closet to face the stairs, which I fall down headfirst, dying instantly.
Ah, the lower level. Thereās another sink in another carpeted area, but at least the built-in furniture isnāt carpeted. Itās fine.
ITāS FINE
This bedroom makes me think of dorm rooms, but from a bad alternate timeline.
This bedroom doesnāt have carpet, but rather a portal to a different alternate universe.
Your best chance for normality in this house.
At least the childrenās toilet room isnāt carpeted? Iāve gotta count this as a win at this point. Iām blocking the sink and counter from my mind. I do not see it.
Itās fine. Oh THEREāS the balcony. ā¦it has no railing. Friends and foes, I really think Iād need my balcony to have railings in this house. But I guess if youāre an incorporeal being from another dimension who loves carpet, it wouldnāt really matter.
Thank you for journeying with me.Ā
(Btw it sold for about $160,000.)
so iāve seen this around a lot and i always felt like the version i listened to just. didnāt have everything? sO! i edited together my three favourite versions of the tik tok sea shanty! enjoy!!
(listen with headphones if possible!)
(yes i know the ending is bad oKaY-)
YES PERFECT EXCELLENT. THANK YOU FOR THIS!! I got literal chills listening to it and Iāve only had that happened in response to a handful of songs in my life, and itās a feeling I adore, so *dumps a bucket of kudos at your feet*
Itās likeā¦Ā Itās like the end credits of a movie where the last shot is the finally repaired ship sailing away with the ensemble cast who have gone through hell to make it to this point.
