[violent-darts]

No this is totally normal for Toronto.

“Got the morbs” should be a thing.

[breelandwalker]

Victorian slang is AMAZING, and select phrases really need to make a comeback.

“Bitch the pot” - Pour the tea (HOW RELEVANT IS THIS!?)

“Bang up the elephant” - Absolutely perfect; super stylish

“Well, that’s shot the bale” - Something that has missed the mark entirely

“Church-bell” - A woman prone to gossip

“Chuckaboo” - A dear friend, a bosom chum

“Beer and skittles” - A great time (see also: Irish Gaelic “craic”)

“Butter on bacon” - Something overdone or too extravagant

“Cupid’s kettle drums” - Breasts, particularly large ones

“Gigglemug” - A cheerful smiling face

[thecuriousviolet-deactivated201]

All of these??? Make me smile??? They’re so weird and wonderful I love them??? Especially bitch the pot because that’s something I could totally hear myself saying…that and chuckaboo

[thebibliosphere]

I worked in a Victorian tea house in my youth and I’m telling you, you haven’t lived till you hear a the 98 year old lady (this was some 15 years ago) utter the words “bitch the pot” because it was what they used to say when the tea house first opened and it just sort of stuck through all the generations.

(via Justin Jorgensen) “In 2007 I worked with photographers Williams + Hirakawa to create a concept piece of me sleeping on a sheet cake. I though these cakes looked like pillows, and there’s the obvious play on ‘sweet dreams.’

I wondered if I could fall asleep on a cake and have sweet dreams. I didn’t. It was pretty gross really and wasn’t easy to wash off.

A few years later, outtakes from the shoot were sold to Getty Images as stock photos. I didn’t know this until 2011 when one of those photos made #13 on the wildly popular Buzzffed.com list of “60 Completely Unusable Stock Photos.”

Into 2014, the Getty Image photo continues to make the rounds on Facebook and Tumblr.”

[skylorde]

i can’t believe i leveled up enough to unlock cake pillow guy’s backstory

[coelasquid]

I can’t believe the “sweet dreams” joke didn’t occur to me

[businesscasualprincess]

Also, they’re transparent, so have fun with that on your blogs.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE BRAIN SCOOP!!! 

Soon Raccoon cupcake charms :D

Polymer clay & liquid clay

tutorial here

[unicornbyte]

So here’s some of my concept art for that animated taxidermy princess movie that needs to happen. They were referenced off these photos and Brain Scoop episodes.

GAH! I love Emily so much. Whenever I watch an episode of The Brain Scoop I see raw unparalleled enthusiasm, strengthened by the spread of ideas that inspire people such as myself. She’s this magnificent force of awesome that has ignited my curiosity and is flaring through my LIFE. Emily is the best. She truly is.

Also, what are fans of The Brain Scoop called? Scoopheads? Brain Scoopers? Swoodily-scoopers? I dunno

I’ve been meaning to do some (more complete) pieces for Journey Into Imagination, but this speed paint of Figment will have to do for now.

[ttobydanger]

I’ll use that to paint with!!
