brooding men who cannot communicate their feelings if their life depended on it are only hot when they're fictional. if i have to deal with one in real life i will curse him and pray for his downfall every night before i go to bed

[kestrel-tree]

It's because the writer communicates their feelings for them. If people wanna pull that off in real life they need to hire a guy to walk around behind them narrating.

[bananonbinary]

#can i be the guy#ill narrate SO incorrectly#theyll all learn how to talk for themselves just to shut me up (via @cirrus-grey)

i'm loving the implication that this isn't something they hired you for, but something you'd do as some sort of public service.

if you see a Jabberwocky in an American National Park i cannot stress this enough you HAVE to report them to the nearest Park ranger. I know, I know, they fill human hearts with terror and whimsy in equal measure, but they are an aggressively invasive species in the Americas. Jackalopes are at risk of becoming extinct because during shedding season they have no natural defences against jaws that bite and claws that catch.

You don't have to worry about them killing it, they're actually endangered in England due to Victorian Era overhunting, so the British government's provided the National Park service with Vorpal Tranquilizer Darts so they can safely transport them to their native British Countryside where they can feast on borogroves and jubjub birds to their hearts' content.

Jabberwocks are starting to really intrude on the territory of the Snallygaster and crowd them out. Please report when you see them and help preserve our American monsters!

[tlaquetzqui]

Biologists prefer the term “fearsome critters”, just FYI. They resemble monsters but only due to convergent evolution.

The preview of this got some great attention. I can't wait for the completed thing to be completely ignored 😅

Quilt guild president: the summer quilt challenge. As you know it is the 250th anniversary-

Guild: -chilly silence-

President: so the challenge to you all is a quilt with your interpretation and/or feelings towards our current “democracy”

Guild: 👏👏👏

President: I know this bunch. I am sure you will come up with something spectacular, and it will probably get angrier as the summer progresses. Full quilt, mini quilt. Go wild, release some emotions.

How I spent my July 4th.

Appliqué almost done. Then onward to the background stitching

[theprofessional-amateur]

At the start I thought stitching “fuck you I won’t do what you tell me” for the last quarter would be therapeutic

I was correct.

Close to finishing the top. Now I gotta figure out how I want to quilt it.

[theprofessional-amateur]

I have one more line of embroidery and I think it needs to be bolder and messier than I started it.

Hard to tell in this light, and without ironing it, that the embroidery does get gradually bolder as it goes. Two strands at the top versus 5 at the bottom (6 for the started to be redone final line).

Not bad for first time doing appliqué.

Still need to decide how I want to quilt it.

[theprofessional-amateur]

@queerasaurolophus thank you for this. It is exactly what I was going for 💜

#!!!! hooooly shit!!!!!!#I love how the spacing also makes ‘hear the people’ into its own imperative#also. hoooly shit holy shit holy shit the combination of these songs is actually making me fucking feral#‘singing the songs of angry men//it is the music of a people who will not be slaves again’ YES YES IT FUCKING IS#ahhhhhh i’m feeling so many emotions right now

I finished the embroidery and gave it a quick press

[the-guilty-hero]

A request for a friend. My sense of humor is broken to the point that I spent half the stream laughing at the reference picture even after finishing the doodle. It's not perfect but sharing it in hopes it will make someone's day a little bit better!

[the-guilty-hero]

I received a very important art request to include an equally long friend for our long capy.

When people get a little too gung-ho about-

wait. cancel post. gung-ho cannot be English. where did that phrase come from? China?

ok, yes. gōnghé, which is…an abbreviation for “industrial cooperative”? Like it was just a term for a worker-run organization? A specific U.S. marine stationed in China interpreted it as a motivational slogan about teamwork, and as a commander he got his whole battalion using it, and other U.S. marines found those guys so exhausting that it migrated into English slang with the meaning “overly enthusiastic”.

That’s…wild. What was I talking about?
