“Toymaker” as a job description in fairy tale fiction is one of my favourite bullshit occupations. “Dollmaker” is fine, “carpenter who makes wooden toys as a side hustle between jobs” is fine, but so many stories have a character whose entire occupation is described as “toymaker” and is heavily implied if not explicitly confirmed to have made all of the toys in their shop, from wood boats to plush animals to porcelain dolls to music boxes to tin soldiers, all made under the tiny hammer of one person.
And it’s not impossible for one person to be at once a highly talented seamstress and tinsmith and carpenter and clockwork engineer and every other talent in the world that would allow you to build everything from china dolls to rocking horses, but to be all that and then single-handedly supply the whole stock of an entire toy store? In a rural whimsical little fairy tale village?? By themselves???
No? Of course not, they have elves on staff. It's like, a legacy thing. In the same way the nicest restaurant in town is an upgrade from the humble street meat stall, so is whatever Santa has going on a grander version of the average toy shop. But they ALL have elves in the back. Elves love making toys. The 'toymaker' is just there to man the front and do the accounting and market research and keep the supply chains running. Maybe they do a little carving on the front porch to entice the customers, but it's elves all the way down.
That's why everyone made such a big deal about the elves working for that shoemaker - that just never happens. Only real rebels ever do work outside of toycrafting. Like that one elf that wanted to be dentist-
"elves love making toys"
"only rebels work outside toy crafting"
are we sure elves are not like. idk. in a sweatshop? with propaganda about how much they love that?
what was remarkable about matilda was that it was her actual family that treated her like shit, not an orphanage or a step-parent or that she was adopted or anything like that. there was no reveal like miss honey is like “im your real mother” it was all about found family because her family was bullshit and that was just the way it was. it is so rare to see a biological family portrayed as people who don’t get their kids and don’t treat them right in kids media
girl who's going to be okay
i'm in agony, SOMEbody please help me remember what the childhood book series was that centered around critters that looked like this:
IM IN HELL WHAT WAS IT
Little Critter?
THATS THE BITCH
alright smart-aleks, what about THIS one huh?? the dude had a really cool shading technique where he just swirled (colored pencil?) around??
Parts :)
YOU GUYS ARE TOO GOOD AT THIS WHAT THE HELL
ok my partner wanted in on this, I have no idea what this is
I GOT YOU
i'm never leaving this fucking site i stg i love you all.
OK
final one
for all the marbles,
this one doesn't have an illustration bc i think it was just a kids novel but i haven't been able to find ANYTHING about it on my occasional internet queries:
kids is staying with his (grandmother?) in the woods and she warns him not to look a fox in the eyes bc they're tricksy and will swap places with you. obviously that's the first thing the little boy does and gets body snatched by a fox who uhhhh proceeds to pig out with his new little boy human hands and the boy has to trick the fox into looking him in the eyes again to switch back...
thats all i got, it's an older book i wanna say from the 60's?? 70's?? kinda the same jist of "Little Rascal"
perhaps this?
A DECADE OF SEARCHING THANK YOU @dyketennant IM ORDERING THIS IMMEDIATELY
ok i lied i'm back bc this is fun and i get to share some of my most deeply cherished childhood books with you all
i cannot express how much these are from memory, that's how internalized these artists and writers have become, they're a part of me now
The first one looks like The Spider and the Fly, though the poses are a bit different.
The second one is likely Stellaluna.
I’m not sure about the third one, I will keep searching.
I think I found the third one, though I’m the least confident about this one. Is it Creature Tech?
Unfortunately it doesn’t have a praying mantis on the cover :(
#0001 - Bulbasaur: The Seed Pokemon
I’m attempting to draw every pokemon, wish me luck Update: I made a quick speedpaint voice over for this piece! Planning to do it with *almost* all the pokepages I do
when i say i don't like myself everyone assumes I'm talking about my body. I'm not. i like my body. very much actually. i just wish i was somebody else because, okay look, I don't hate myself, im nice and kind and everything, but i just kinda dislike the way i am, like personality wise, and i feel like an unbearable human being. but also i don't feel human.

Heres the thing you gotta understand about statistics.
“Increases your chances by 80%” does not mean “there is now an 80% chance”.
If your chances were previously 10%, your chances are now 18%, not 90%.
if your chances were roughly 1%, they’re now just slightly less than 2%.
thats how that works.
Wow I don’t understand math at all
‘if you have a baby after 35, the chance of deformities goes up by 100%’ is a line I hear alot.
It goes up from .5% to 1%
I think my brain just stopped working
100% is just another way of saying twice more likely. So 100% more basically means multiply the number you do have by 2.
Imagine how many woman are scared to have kids because of that statistic
This is why I took stats instead of calc. Because I don’t build engineer bridges in my everyday life but I sure do read studies that affect how I might live my life if I misinterpret them.
I’m terrible at numbers and math but I knew this and I really take it for granted. The average person definitely assumes, quite understandably, that “600% INCREASE!!!” must always mean a whole lot even if it literally only means that one of something is now six of something. Politicians probably take a shitload of advantage of this confusion.
just remember that increased BY and increased TO are very different things.
Oh god I didn’t even think about that whole other layer of confusion. Yeah if you’ve got 100 people and one of them is sick, that’s 1% of them who are sick, so if it “increased BY 100%” then that means now two people are sick. If it’s “increased TO 100%” then all 100 people are sick.
Reblogging again for that last addition.
You ever make friends so good you start to realize most of the people closest to you have been undercover operatives sent by the devil to ruin your life
You do it to yourself, you do
And that's what really hurts.
Could you draw the girls (and Zooble) helping Jax with his makeup? please
ofc i can ^_^
Husband called me into the bedroom to show me the tag on our mattress cover, he was very proud.
“This seems like something tumblr will like! It’ll get you all the notes…ReTumbls? It’ll get you all the ReTumbls.”
It’s important you all know he has this opened on his second monitor, delightedly refreshing it every few minutes to read the notes.
I don’t even need to update him, he’s still reading the tags.
He also took the opportunity on our monthly discord call last night to proudly inform his mom and sister of his recent tumblr fame.
He perhaps did not consider that he might have to explain “top or bottom queen” to his mom.
