“Crystalline Light,” reduction linocut, 2025. By William Hays

[testosterowned]

SCROLL UP THAT'S NOT A PHOTOGRAPH!!!!

[neonkarkki]

Okay but I don't think "that's not a photograph" is enough for this. That's a reduction linocut and I'm just going to assume a whole lot of the people here won't know what that means or google it. It means that the artist has had a linoleum block and has made this image by carving pieces out of it bit by bit, printing layers upon layers at different stages of carving to get the layered colours on the final print. Hypereaslistic paintings and pencil drawings and such are impressive, but I beg you all to look up how linocuts are done to get an idea of how this has been done.

Hi my name is Lady Aranessa I smell like flower petals my family’s patron is the fey I kick my enemies with my cunty boots my ex husband was the hottest coolest rebel in Dol-Makyar. This is my lame ass knight Julien. He’s hungover right now. He smells like blood and probably vomit. He cried about his curl pattern this morning. We both have Amex black cards.

You ever see something innocuous, minding its own business on the clearance shelf at Michael’s and before you know it, it takes over your life for a few weeks?

So it was with this desktop greenhouse.

I took it home and after taking an appropriate time to “season” my idea in my mind (read: a month or two) I set to make my vision of a mini botanical garden a reality.

I started by removing the heavy glass panels and building a raised floor above the latch. I wanted to use the base as a foundation on the building.

I wrapped the foundation in plastic stone textured flooring (meant for Christmas villages) and built a pond at one end of the same. I then gave it a more realistic paint job and designed a rough layout for my plants and displays.

I also knew I wanted to make the ironwork significantly more intricate, but I wasn’t sure how just yet…

Up next - PLANTS! I went wild making all kinds of plants. Some were specific species and some were more conceptual.

I made several trees with polymer clay and moss, cacti out of beads and flocking, cattails out of raffia, hot glue and coffee grounds, and giant monstera leaves out of paper and wire.

This part should have taken me a long time, but it really came together fast. I loved finding ways to replicate natural shapes and patterns using bits of this and that.

I did make adjustments to my plans as I went like eliminating benches in favor of a simpler overall design.

Then I needed to fill my pond with water. For this I used resin. Lily pads were added to the top layer, and I wired in simple LED fairy lights. The batteries are kept in the box under the foundation.

In a weekend frenzy I added more plants, metal (paper) steps, new (plexi)glass windows, a roof, wrought-iron vines (paper again), doors that open, and a hose reel disguising the latch. Suddenly, a project I thought would take months was finished…

I love my desktop botanical garden. Right now it sits on a simple lazy Susan in my office. But I’d love to get it a proper display box to protect from dust.

Thank you for coming on this little journey with me. This piece packs a lot of joy into a tiny space. I always love building miniatures, and I’ll be doing more in the future I’m sure.

ok but we know in the campaign molly and yasha’s relationship is important because they’ve known each other a while. now that in the show yasha is meeting the nein already together for the first time, but they still need to develop that connection she and molly shared. what if molly is the first person she tells about zuala? and afterward molly gives her a clover and she starts her book of flowers?

I don't want Lara Croft to be a Lesbian just because I think she is one (her literal first ever line of dialogue is her threatening a man).

I want Lara Croft to be a Lesbian because it would be the most Girlboss thing ever to take this female character who has been sexualised by men for decades and go "You know what, fuck all of you, Lara only kisses girls."
