Good morning/afternoon! Out of curiosity, how would you say comics in Russian? Anywho, have an awesome one! Your art continues to be gorgeous by the way!

Hello! Oh, well, “comics” is taken directly into Russian as it is. =) So it would be just a transliteration of this word which is “комикс”.

And thank you!!

musingsofashley replied to your post:why do my ~* not seizures*~ make me forget...

I hope that gets sorted for you soon. An MRI for me didn’t detect anything abnormal, but EEGs did show seizure activity for me, so that was how I was diagnosed with epilepsy a few years back. Hope you get answers ASAP!

ahhh yeah the thing about eegs is that if i dont have an episode in the time i have it on though then im kinda??? fucked. im just hoping theres some sort of residual marker from the really big one i had a few days ago because honestly the symptoms presented much more like a stroke than a seizure. :V but i aM TWENTY YEARS OLD i am too young for a fucking stroke. but my mom had a stroke pretty young too but i'm healthy and :VVV but there was serious speech impediment and complete right-side paralysis including my face for like an hour, and difficulty breathing. and unconsciousness for like. idk half an hour during the worst of the actual seizing idk. and ive never heard of a seizure that long, ever. but what the hell else could it be idfk basically i am fucked and my doctor is only trying to appease my mother because my doc doesnt actually think there's anything wrong. beep.

I am going to scream. Do people seriously try to argue with you that JSTOR and ARTstor are not valid databases for research??? Are they for real?! Seriously??!!! What the heck do they think professors recommend us to use in uni?! *throws things* I use JSTOR all the dang time while working on my BFA in art history. They- just- *inarticulate screaming* your bingo card hits home in scary ways.

Never underestimate someone willing to argue with a painting.

musingsofashley replied to your post: okay artists we need a plan of attack ...

I’ll definitely be trying to get my draft created today and send you the links. If possible, I’ll be posting tomorrow afternoonish? Early afternoonish? I need to find out if my work schedule changed tomorrow. I will let you know!

okay perfect! i'm gonna try to get the fic draft fully formatted today so it'll be easy to cut and paste the links in without much of a problem, and post basically whenever tomorrow.

okay artists we need a plan of attack for tomorrow, Friday 9/26, aka our posting date for the SLBB. my recommendation is to make the art posts and save them as drafts, and then link me each individual image for coding into the fic. destielobessed, if you made some other sort of media other than fanart, please let me know. musingsofashley, we've already kind of talked this over; i'll put your art appropriately where it falls within the fic and will link to your art post also within the fic. i will also be posting my own graphics/fanmix with the fic, too. there'll probably be an entire section of the author's notes where i link to all the fanmedia, etc.

we still have some time, i just wanted to allow extra to get in contact with you guys as early as possible, since I know tumblr isn't always the most reliable when it comes to messages and stuff.

please also let me know the approximate time you believe you'll be posting your content so we can try to coordinate together. even if it's as simple as "sometime in the afternoon" or "early evening", that can help a lot.

thanks guys! looking forward to completing this thing and getting it all posted!! :D

musingsofashley replied to your post: Stiles had a hibernation scare today. ...

I’m happy to hear that your hedgehog Stiles is doing well!

Thanks, I was really worried about her. Hibernation is really dangerous for African Pygmy Hedgehogs because they do originate from such a warm climate. While European hedgehogs have developed the ability to hibernate, they're much larger and better-equipped to deal with the strain of hibernation.

African Pygmy Hedgehogs are really tiny, usually weighing between one and two pounds (Stiles is about a pound, maybe a little less), and are better equipped to deal with excessive heat in a process called aestivation—like hibernation, their bodily processes slow down, but that's to avoid heat stroke and overheating, rather than freezing. When it comes to hibernation, their metabolism doesn't slow down enough to be fully effective. Hedgehogs that attempt hibernation usually die within the first 72 hours, sometimes less, of hypothermia or starvation.

Really, really glad that Stiles is okay. She'll be at a higher risk for attempting hibernation a second time, now, but that's okay. I'm better prepared to deal with that now, and I'll be keeping a much closer eye on her.
