━⊱•⊰━ Wow this piece was… an adventure. My first attempt at watercolor ended up as this mixed media piece- the ones that I got dried way too pale, so I ended up compensating with a mixture of… brush pen, colored pencil, and other inks to get where we are. Overall I’m not displeased! I learned a lot and I love looking at the piece in person. :D I’m excited to try more colored traditional work. I am considering offering this as a print, too… <3 ━⊱•⊰━ 🔅 Artwork made possible by my wonderful supporters on Patreon 🔅 • DeviantArt ║ FurAffinity ║ Ko-Fi ║ Patreon ║ Twitter • ━⊱•⊰━

A recent commission, back to the cave. Slowly started creating some kind of a story in cave paintings in my head, a continuation of the ammonite cave.

Tumblr ate my fucking link lmao so here y'all go

[prokopetz]

You know, when I've remarked that a lot of the responses to my posts feel like people are just plucking out keywords they think they recognise based on the shape of them and replying to what they imagine the post says based on that, the possibility never occurred to me that this is actually how many American schools are currently teaching kids to read.

[prokopetz]

Like, my assumption this whole time has been that when folks go "I misunderstood this post that says [thing] as saying [unrelated thing] because I mistook [word] for [completely different word that happens to start with the same letter]", that was a bit. What do you mean they're teaching kids a reading method that's tailored to produce this exact error?

[buggyhuman]

Three cueing. Once you learn about it, a whole lot of very frustrating online discourse with US Americans makes so much sense 😭

How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have

[woodsfae]

If you were taught to read with the three cueing method, and now struggle to read fluently, you can still learn to read properly!

I made a thing!

This is inspired by a pin Marlow made on Pinterest. They also have an Instagram called marlowcrochets. Their pouch featured a pointed cap.

Pattern under cut

Crochet Mushroom Pouch

I used worsted wight acrylic yarn and a 4mm hook for this pattern

Terminology: sc - single crochet slst- slip stitch ch- chain inc- increase dec- decrease sts- stitches blo- back loops only dc- double crochet.

Terms in brackets [ ] will be repeated the number of times specified. When something is done "around" it means every stitch will be done the same.

At the end of every round slst and ch 1 before continuing to the next round.

I would also like to note that I use an "x" stitch, which is a single crochet where you yarn under instead of yarn over. You can use whichever you like.

Stem (white)

R1: 6sc into magic circle R2: 6inc around (12sts) R3: [1sc, inc] ×6 (18sts) R4: [2sc, inc] ×6 (24sts) R5: [3sc, inc] ×6 (30sts) R6: [4sc, inc) x6 (36sts) R7: sc around in blo (36sts) R8-9: sc around (36sts) R10: [4sc, dec] ×6 (30sts) R11-12: sc around (30 sts) R13: [3sc, dec] ×6 (24sts) R14-15: sc around (24sts) R16: sc around in blo (24sts) R17: sc around (24sts) chain 70 and leave a short tail for sewing later.

Ruffles (white) Attach yarn to front loop of round 16 of stem. Ch 2 and then work 3dc into the same loop. Continue to do 3dc in each loop until you reach the end then slst to the first dc you made leaving a short tail to weave in immediately.

Outer Cap (red) R1: 6sc into magic circle R2: 6inc around (12sts) R3: [1sc, inc] ×6 (18sts) R4: [2sc, inc] ×6 (24sts) R5: [3sc, inc] ×2, 4sc, ch1, [3sc, inc] ×2, 4sc, ch1 (28sts, 2chs) R6: [4sc, inc] ×6 note that two of the increases will land in the chains (36sts) R7: sc around (36sts) R8: [5sc, inc] ×6 (42sts) R9: sc around (42sts) If you make the Inner Cap leave an 18 inch tail for sewing later.

Inner Cap (white) R1: 6sc into magic circle R2: 6inc around (12sts) R3: [1sc, inc] ×6 (18sts) R4: [2sc, inc] ×6 (24sts) R5: [3sc, inc] ×2, 4sc, ch1, [3sc, inc] ×2, 4sc, ch1 (28sts, 2chs) R6: sc around (30sts) note that two of the sts will land in the chains. R7: [4sc, inc] ×6 (36sts) Leave a long tail (40 inches) for embroidering on the spots.

Assembly

Start by sewing the Inner Cap to the Outer Cap using the red tail making sure that the chain holes line up. I used a wip stitch. Then use the white tail to embroider the spots. I used a French knot but you can just do lines or even crochet small circles if you like. Finally, use your hook to thread the Chain of 70 through the chain holes then sew it back onto the stem on the opposing side.

Voila! Now you have a mushroom pouch! Use it for dice, trinkets, or whatever you like.

This took me all day to make and I am very proud of it.

The disposable aluminum bodies they put on monsters trucks are kind of like lingerie if you think about it... Thin, decorative more than functional, meant to come off... We all know wrestling is theatre, but Monster Jam is burlesque.

[greelin]

did perfectionism ever truly protect you from harm or neglect as a child though. ultimately. Lol

[greelin]

[REALLY NORMAL AND WELL-ADJUSTED VOICE] well you never know maybe it COULD have saved me. if i ever actually achieved perfection. it could have happened then. if i was actually ever enough. Which i was not

I want to see more polyamory pride this pride month i'm serious. Stop being weird about people with multiple partners polyamory is awesome and beautiful and queer

[03josten]

stop fucking using the word psychotic to describe bad behaviour and violence already god fucking damn it

[03josten]

oh my god i'm so tired psychotic does not mean violent it does not mean angry or erratic. it refers to a person suffering from psychosis, a loss of touch with reality that includes hallucinations and/or delusions. psychotic people are not inherently violent and y'all need to understand how much stigma you create when you again and again incorrectly use the word psychotic without even thinking about it

[03josten]

would appreciate if non-psychotic people could reblog this

[chanth-thara]

okay, i’m curious. let’s play a game. reblog this post and put in the tags the name of a fictional Indigenous character.

No headcanons, no ‘coding’, only CANONICALLY Indigenous characters. You have unlimited time. Go.

Happy Pride month, all. We're a bit over halfway, and slowly running low on time. Can we get some good traction for pride month?
