The Color Game. “Humans can’t reliably recall colors. This is a simple game to see how good (or bad) you are at it. We’ll show you five colors, then you’ll try and recreate them.” I scored 39/50 but got a perfect score on one color.

Northern hemisphere friends, we only have to wait 17 days until the light starts to return. That’s less that three weeks. We can do it 💪

The drums rumbled in the distance, the girls yelped happily, the boys laughed loudly, and the flames burned so brightly that he air grew hot, as if summer had come in the winter night.  Yet another illustration for the novel. Didn’t know that drawing can bring this much joy to my heart)

[inkyami]

Remember Golden Lands? It is the amazing slavic fantasy series that I’ve been illustrating. The fandom grows, and some extremely talented people wrote a song about the Long Night from the book. And other extremely talented people filmed it.

Happy Long Night! Happy Solstice!

it actually is insane to me that it's a cultural norm for men to suck ass at getting their wives/gfs gifts. especially when they whine about how they have no idea what women like.

man, you're not getting a gift for Female Domestic Partner. you're getting a gift for Natalie, a person whom you have been married to for 7 years, whom has lived in the same home with you for a decade, whom speaks to you every day about her thoughts and interests, whom you presumably love, and whom you can directly or indirectly ask what she wants. it's not that you don't know what half the human population wants, that's irrelevant. you don't know what Natalie wants and that is inexcusable.

Spurious Latin plurals are great fun if you're a specific flavour of nerd, but improperly constructed verb tenses are a game anyone can play. The past tense of "screenshot" is "screenshat".

[wicker-and-scrap]

In an argument about D&D rules, I proposed that the past tense of "crit" is "crat". This was judged to be 'disgusting'.

thank you to this post for making me look up irregular verbs because i discovered a word i never even realized was a verb: wit, as in the phrase "to wit," which before this moment i absolutely thought was some odd metaphorical construct like "to[ward] wit (n.)" and not just . an infinitive?

wikipedia discusses it like we're all perfectly aware that wit is a unique english verb. it reads like a native english speaker is supposed to read this and go "huh, i guess wit is pretty weird, isn't it?" and not "i have never heard this word in my life":

i wot?? i did not wit this ("wit" means "know," which ig makes sense)

...also, what is the third person conjugation if it doesn't have an -s?

you wost??? you wistest?????

every other english verb needs to pick up the slack, no one is doing it like wit, we need some more of these

[prokopetz]

The set phrase "to wit" isn't the only place this verb survives in modern English, mind; it's also fossilised in adjective "unwitting".

(As for the past tense, literally the only place I've ever heard it is in a couple of traditional ballads whose lyrics come to us via Middle English, which contain the phrase "[to go] where no-one wist" – which is of course a fancy way of saying "where the fuck did they go?")

[therottenkingsreckoning]

Could it be the origin of "wistful" or am I wrong?

[prokopetz]

Oddly, no; "wistful" apparently descends from the unrelated Middle English "whist", meaning "silence". (In its older usage, the term suggests silent contemplation; the modern connotation of longing or yearning is possibly influenced by confusion with "wishful".)

[purronronner]

@orecchietta It wouldn’t be “you wost”, it’d be “thou wost”. ‘You’ is grammatically the second person plural, not singular :)

bruh this looks a lot like dutch

Helena from Alchemized

Drawn by me in Clip Studio, testing on a tablet.

It's been ages since I last drew a piece with this much love. There will be more..! And it's been ages since a book gripped me by the feels.
