Sea Witch Tentacle Spiral Scarf pattern by Jay Edwards

This scarf was inspired by the Sea Witch in Seanan McGuire’s “October Daye” series, specifically the one time she shapeshifts into an octop

Here’s HSTHETE, the 24 hour comic I drew this year!  Thanks to everybody who followed along on twitter this weekend as I posted these pages <3

PS: if you liked this, there’s a whole book of these comics available now!

[melgillman]

I’m reblogging this 7-year-old comic of mine because, not only is it somehow still circulating, it just passed 400,000 notes??? Thank you, several hundred thousand internet strangers, for keepin’ this ol’ goat girl goin’ so long

(Also hi, I’m still making fairy-tale-flavored lesbian romance comics and have a new one coming out very soon…)

more people need to actually pick a side

[psych-is-the-name]

yall need to pay attention to your surroundings more

[rebel13lion39]

When are you freezing cheese?!

[psych-is-the-name]

???I'm not???

[cannibalistic-cucumbette]

Thawed cheese? As opposed to???

[psych-is-the-name]

ok maybe there's some more common word for it, but I've only ever heard it as thawing

[minothtime]

you mean MELT??? as in MELTED CHEESE????? because it MELTS???????????

[psych-is-the-name]

No! Melting is completely different!

You just thaw it! And it makes this sound occasionally while it does!

[minothtime]

okay I'm gonna need you to explain what "thawing" a cheese means to you. is it bringing a cheese out lf the fridge and wait for it to be room temperature? is it heating it up so it's gooey and soft? i need to understand

[psych-is-the-name]

No the cheese isn't frozen or cold. I don't know what other way to describe it as other than thawing? It makes a noise occasionally and when it stops it's usually done thawing

[the-one-and-only-aroace]

What actual change happens to the cheese after it “thaws”

[psych-is-the-name]

it changes from an un-thawed to a thawed state

it's ready

good to go

[gardenofava]

What process are you doing to thaw cheese. where do you keep the cheese such that it's not thawed. Which physical properties of the cheese change between thawed and unthawed

[psych-is-the-name]

ok I cant be the crazy one here. Nobody else thaws their cheese???

[ninja-pieking]

I thaw my cheese, but only if I get a block of the stuff, the sliced stuff is better for melting.

[psych-is-the-name]

THANK YOU!

also ill temporarily forgive you for the sliced cheese comment. but pre-sliced is a sin

[minothtime]

no no no i refuse to let this rest until i fully understand

so you. FREEZE the cheese? and then when you want to use it you. THAW it. that's what I'm getting from this conversation. is this correct??

also this might be important: what type of cheese are we talking about. cottage cheese? hard cheese? fake cheese (cheddar)? because i think i might be picturing the wrong type of cheese

[psych-is-the-name]

no like I said before you don't freeze the cheese! That just dries it out! And the type of cheese doesn't matter. You. Still. Thaw. It.

[minothtime]

What I don't understand is the PROCESS. like what is the ORIGINAL STATE OF THE CHEESE. is it just the state it is in when you buy it in the store. or is it cold. or is it room temperature. or is it warm.

and what is the exact process?? microwaving?? warm water??? just leaving it outside in room temp?????

please I seriously need to understand the PROCESS the cheese undergoes. if step-by-step instructions need to be spelt out then so be it but i really REALLY wanna know what's going on

[gardenofava]

Can you like take a video of the cheese thawing from start to finish to demonstrate the sound it makes and the process of thawing cheese

[psych-is-the-name]

Unfortunately I can't. I'm at work right now, and I'm heading out on a trip in 2 days so I already cleared out my fridge so nothing'll spoil while I'm gone. But trust me I'd absolutely do that if I could. This is really frustrating and I GUARANTEE if you all saw it you'd immediately recognize what thawing cheese is. I seriously think I'm just unintentionally using a niche regional name for it which is causing all this confusion

[psych-is-the-name]

OK IM FUCKING BACK!

ill have you all know that the entire time I was gone i couldnt stop thinking about this so im DETERMINED to show you all not only WHAT thawing cheese is, but also what the SOUND is so i can FINALLY have an answer to my ORIGINAL GOD DAMN POLL

[psych-is-the-name]

i have nothing in my fridge and im tired rn from driving 6 hours so instead of going to the store i'm just gonna swing by my aunt's place and see if she has any cheese that needs thawing

gimme a few minutes

[psych-is-the-name]

ok looks like im just going to the store. video of thawing cheese when i come back

[psych-is-the-name]

now the question is will tumblr let me put a poll in the same reblog as a video?

the sound cheese makes when thawing is

Annoying

Pleasant

[syn4k]

ok note to self i gotta leave the house regularly so that i dont feel like im slowly transforming into an evil fucking shadow clone of myself

[syn4k]

So as it turns out your sense of self doesnt exist in a vacuum. You gotta actually use it and bounce it off of other people like echolocation to see where you are as a person and shit. So if you dont regularly interact with other people the echoes just get weaker and weaker and before you know it your personality is a blurry fucked up fog clone of its former self. which it sucks because this makes it really hard to interact with people again but yknow

breaking news! new beautiful photo of the best species of frog in the world just dropped

for everyone in the notes lamenting that this guy is poisonous: they are not! they're just pretty :) since they're a glass frog, their major defense mechanism is being translucent and hiding their blood while they sleep so they look extra translucent and blend in with leaves <3

Caramelldansen turns 20 this year and frankly I am not prepared for that.

So it’s settled? When November 2 rolls around, we’re all laying facedown and blasting Caramelldansen?

[kazooyah]

no we’re gonna put our big boy pants on and do the goddamn caramelldansen dance for once in our lives

Well I know what I’ll have to reblog on the 2nd

[rudjedet]

A solid 80% of the tumblr experience is accepting that you won't get the reference of [shit that's suddenly everywhere] until like 19 months later

[rudjedet]

this struck a chord with all the other people confused-by-yet-accepting-of the juggling man and/or plastic-eating crow boy i see

A rest day isn't enough. I need one billion years alone in a crystal.
