Your nickname, Toaster, literally translates to ‘toast machine’ in Turkish, which I find oddly adorable, lol. Is there a story behind why you call yourself Toaster, or do you just really love eating toasts? Is Toastray supposed to be a toast tray (tost tepsisi)?
How do you like eating your toasts, Toaster-san?
An intriguing question. I see you know Turkish; a beautiful language. As for my username, I’m glad you find it adorable but the reason why I chose that name or why I’m called “Toast” or “Toaster-san” began strangely. I didn’t choose those labels but was called that by an anonymous user. From then on, I embraced the nickname, and thus we are.
However, my username was born of two words, “to” + “astray.” I joined it together for a smoother look but it ended up looking as a portmanteau of “toast” and “stray / tray.”
My mortal mother often fried bread by dipping it in egg yolk as breakfast; it has always been my favorite treat whenever I don’t feel like stuffing myself in the morning, so it is part of the “toast.” However, I didn’t indulge myself too much in it because I despise oily foods of any kind.
Where I live, the trend of fairy bread is also prevalent. It’s an easy thing to make my spreading some butter and cover it with hundreds and thousands.
How do you savor your toast?
in addition, could i possibly request a matching set of solid lace and lined dividers in alabaster {⌗d6d2ca}, hazelnut {⌗b6a18f}, espresso {⌗342b24}, and ecru {⌗eae6dd} as well? perhaps with a few gradients like those in your “neutral lined & laced dividers post”?
again, thank you so, so much!! your dividers truly are a work of art.

May I ask what principles you try to live by, Toaster-san? And what values do you admire most in other people?
Whether you call them principles or morals, I consider both to be social constructs. This does not mean I do not believe in a specific manner of living but rather they should not be used to assess an individual’s own moral values. As in, principles are subjective.
Since you asked, I try to live by principles of self-awareness and accountability. Admitting that I am wrong is not a wrong. Moreover, I believe apologizing shouldn’t be difficult and I will do so where I am required to.
For others, I admire the ability to speak the truth when it is difficult and to challenge ideas that bring new perspectives. Moreover, I find that internal beauty is more important than external; if it is not there, I don’t even find the most beautiful person attractive. I have always found people who work tooth and nail to achieve their goals truly remarkable (e.g. Nzinga Mbande, Sophia Duleep Singh, Mansa Abu Bakr II, Chandragupta Maurya, Ibn Sina, Thomas Sankara, etc).
Um, if it wouldn’t be a bother for you to answer this—could you explain INFP 4w5? I’ve been trying to research it for a few hours now, but most of what I’ve come across hasn’t been very helpful yet. I mostly ran into a lot of negativity… 😭
I feel like the way you explain things tends to be much clearer than what I’ve seen elsewhere, so I’d really appreciate it if you could help, even just recommending a source would be perfectly fine.
I’m glad you asked this thoughtfully. A lot of what you will find about INFP 4w5 online skews negative because descriptions tend to focus on unhealthy expressions of both Type 4 and Fi dominance. So I’ll break it down structurally rather than stereotypically.
First, separate the systems:
MBTI (INFP): describes cognitive processing-how someone perceives and evaluates information.
Enneagram (4w5): describes motivational structure and why someone behaves the way they do.
They overlap in tone, but they are not the same thing.
[INFP (Fi-Ne-Si-Te)]
An INFP leads with an internal value system, a strong concern with authenticity (especially for themselves), evaluates experience based on personal meaning, and emotionally nuanced rather than outwardly expressive by default.
Importantly, INFPs are not defined by fragility or passivity. They are defined by value-centered cognition.
[ENNEAGRAM]
The type 4's core motivation is to understand and define their identity and avoid being without personal significance, which logically places their core fear as being ordinary, insignificant, or without depth.
[THE 5 WING]
The 5 wing adds:
- Intellectual withdrawal
- Analytical depth
- A desire to understand rather than just feel
- A tendency toward privacy and self-containment
Which means 4w5 can be more reserved, more cerebral, less performative, and more comfortable in solitude.
[IN PRACTICE]
When these combine, you will often see a strong internal moral framework (Fi), preoccupation with personal meaning and identity (4), deep introspection and self-analysis (4w5 + Fi), symbolic, abstract thinking (Ne + 5 wing), emotional intensity that is processed inwardly rather than dramatized.
The "doom" stereotype comes from descriptions of unhealthy 4s (rumination, envy, self-absorption) combined with inferior Te struggles (difficulty externalizing structure).
But a healthy INFP 4w5 is:
• Self-aware without being self-indulgent
• Creative with conceptual depth
• Emotionally literate
• Independent in thought
• Comfortable inhabiting complexity
[ONLINE]
Many typology descriptions end up emphasizing dysfunction because it's dramatic and ignore individual developmental levels (healthy vs average vs unhealthy. Every type has destructive expressions that doesn't define the type. When they read that INFP prioritizes their own internal structure rather than others, they immediately label it as "selfish."
I suggest you studying your cognitive functions directly rather than relying on memes and composite stereotypes.
Any favourite quotes lately?
I’m glad you asked because I have several from various texts:
“Poor lovers! they embraced each other, as though they embraced an endless sorrow.”
— Narrator | THE GOLD DEMON
HAMLET: I see a cherub that sees them. But come, for England. Farewell, dear mother.
KING: Thy loving father, Hamlet.
HAMLET: My mother. Father and mother is man and wife, Man and wife is one flesh, (and) so, my mother—Come, for England. [He exits.]
— Hamlet to Claudius | HAMLET (A4, S2)
HAMLET: Is this a prologue or the posy of a ring?
OPHELIA: "Tis brief, my lord.
HAMLET: As woman's love.
— Hamlet to Ophelia | HAMLET (A3, S2)
"Is it not worthy of tears that, when the number of worlds is infinite, we have not yet become lords of a single one?"
— Alexander the Great | ON TRANQUILITY OF MIND
“Did I request thee, Maker, from my clay To mould Me man? Did I solicit thee From darkness to promote me?”
The Creature | FRANKENSTEIN / PARADISE LOST
HAMLET, [aside]: A little more than kin and less than kind.
KING: How is it that the clouds still hang on you?
HAMLET: Not so, my lord; I am too much in the sun.
— Hamlet to Claudius | HAMLET (A1, S2)
"I am inclined to think—" said I.
"I should do so," Sherlock Holmes remarked impatiently.
I believe that I am one of the most long-suffering of mortals; but I'll admit that I was annoyed at the sardonic interruption.
"Really, Holmes," said I severely, "you are a little trying at times."
— Sherlock Holmes to John H. Watson | THE VALLEY OF FEAR
"Despicable Paris, handsomest of men, but woman-mad seducer. How I wish you never had been born or died unmarried.”
— Hector to Paris | THE ILIAD (3)
"Whatever is found here may be found elsewhere, but what is not in it, cannot be found anywhere else."
— Vaishampayana to Janamejaya | MAHABHARATA (1/18)
“How I rage against my mother! I need only begin speaking with her and I'm annoyed, almost scream.”
— Writer | PERSONAL DIARIES OF FRANZ KAFKA
“I've won nothing for all I've suffered, battling on, pain in my heart, with my life always under threat. Just as a bird takes scraps of food, whatever she can find, to her fledglings, but herself eats little, so have I lain without sleep many nights, persevered through bloody days of fighting, in battling men in wars about their wives.”
— Achilles to Odysseus | THE ILIAD (9)
I'm wondering which artists Toaster-san enjoys listening to? Or genre of music?
I usually don’t listen to music but when I do it’s calm, quiet, and clear. As in, I’d prefer jazz or classical music, more Hindustani for its elegance and poetic depth. I don’t find the same essence in Western classical music. I would love to try Carnatic. However, I find a certain rawness in a capella singing, it shows proper talent of the singer when unaccompanied by an instrument. But this doesn’t mean I don’t listen to pop, I just prefer 2000-2010s. It was much less superficial and more defining for our era. Overall, I prefer the silence more.

yes please tutorials on animated lines would be amazing… as do anything else that you see fit! thank you ❤️
Greetings,
Here is the long awaited tutorial, I have tried my best to frame it in a way that is understandable for everyone. From my previous tutorial’s point, I assume you are on mobile to make this accessible for my audience. As always, you can use the created divider (with credits) from this tutorial. Do not hesitate to ask questions in the comments or inbox.
Step 1 - preparing the base
Choose a software of your preference for your divider. The color of the base depends on you—it is useful to have a color palette for your blog.
For example, I chose the color dusty red, specifically #A43721.
ⓘ Remember to use the recommended size: 540 x 5-20 px or else there might be problems when you try to upload your divider.
Step 2 - layering your animation
Now, this is the part where you prepare your dividers for animation. Add another layer (above the base) and draw a line of your preferred measurements—mostly 1/3 of your divider.
This line can be of any color—most common is black or white (enough to make the motion obvious).
ⓘ Use a soft brush to draw the line as it will create a smooth motion across your divider.
Step 3 - the motion
After you have drawn a lovely line, you can start the real process. Create several layers with each line ahead of each other to create a “running” motion (as similar to standard animation). You will see the preview clearly ahead.
Save each layer with different motions with an option like, “Add Layer From Canvas,” and then, “Save Transparent PNG,” should work (options may differ depending upon the software).
Step 4 - the creation
Using the software from my previous tutorial—on first glance, you will see many choices, choose, “GIF MAKER.”
Step 5 - rearranging your frames
This part depends on what you clicked as you uploaded your images / files but don’t worry, it’s quite simple to reorder (drag around) + if you want your previous order, the numbers will guide you.
ⓘ Make sure, “don’t stack frames,” is selected
You may have noticed that one frame is dark, I did it to show you that if you accidentally select a wrong image, you can simply tap “skip,” and the frame will not appear, which is why it has “enable,” for you to select again.
Step 6 - experimenting with time
Timing matters a lot. This is the part where you select how fast or slow you want your animation to be.
