the irony of seeing a billboard today that had a picture of a deer and said "oh deer! its a distracted driver!"

like wow yeah its dangerous when drivers are distracted by things while they drive, say giant pictures just off to the side of the road that you can see every couple miles or so. we really should do something about that

[octobermp-3]

I doubt it'll get that many notes but I am holding hands with everyone in agreement with this 🤝🙂‍↕️

the world is running out of glassblowers and yet you want to become a fucking doctor

[sniperserpent]

One of the most jarring moments of my university education was in a physics class when I was given a device that measures gravity and was told “this cost the university sixteen thousand dollars, but the only glass blower in the world who could make the glass springs inside it died so it’s literally irreplaceable. If you drop it those springs will shatter. Go fuck around with it for a day and take some measurements”

[marzipanandminutiae]

I met a young horologist (mechanical clock maker/repairer) for the first time in my eight-year museum career

...last year

there are still plenty of mechanical clocks in the world and the people who can repair them are dying out

for the love of god. become a clockmaker. become a glassblower. there will be work for you because no-one else can do it

[thorst]

God, pick it up while there are still masters to teach you! My career ship has sailed but those would be such cool professions

[deepspaceboytoy]

I do not want to live in a world where you can’t laugh at someone for getting horny over angry birds. You know, the game angry birds. Featuring the titular angry birds. Where someone sees a sort of yellow triangular shape with some feathers and says oh fuck I have to stroke my penis to completion. We should be able to laugh at that. It’s laughable.

[deepspaceboytoy]

Should you be killed for cumming via penis manipulation while looking at angry birds porn? No, that would be bad. But you gotta admit it’s pretty funny. It’s a funny thing to be horny for, and sometimes when you do funny things where other people can see it, they will laugh. Because you stroked off to angry birds.

[skuubasally]

Nope. I know better, have your reblog Madame Zeroni.

[captainclickycat]

I know you’re not meant to like, overanalyse memes. But there’s something really funny to me about the implication that Madame Zeroni’s motivations have devolved from “wanting to be carried up a mountain and drink from a fortifying stream to regain strength and vitality” to “going viral on social media, for… some reason.”

Really says something about the dire state of offerings for men interested in sewing their own clothes that even searching things like “interesting men’s clothing patterns” brings up articles with links to four or five whole websites that primarily offer admittedly nice but practically identical patterns for making button-ups and work pants and maybe a varsity/bomber jacket if you’re lucky.

(Branching out into historical costuming for everyday wear is like your one shot at variation, and even then, the ratio of men’s to women’s patterns on every website is frustrating to say the least.)

Patternmakers as a trans man I am begging you. Give me a little more to work with here.

[astriiformes]

Like it’s also hard if you’re buying your own clothes, don’t get me wrong, but there are at least more retailers that offer fun and quirky clothes for guys if you do a little digging.

And some of that comes down to print choice, where you obviously have significant leeway if you’re making your own clothes, too, but the erasure of men who sew by society writ large has wreaked absolute havoc on the selection of sewing tutorials and patterns aimed at men and people interested in wearing menswear. It is uniquely frustrating to be a man who wants to sew interesting things, not just wear them.

[astriiformes]

I wasn’t expecting this to take off, but since so many of you seem to have resonated (or at least sympathized) with this, I thought I’d offer some links to some of the fun patterns I have been eyeing lately

Twig and Tale on Etsy have a modest selection of slightly more unique men’s and unisex patterns, I’d really love to make their Pathfinder vest and Ridgeway shirt, among others

Merchant and Mills have a small selection as well, including their Billy gillet and unisex Landgate raincoat

Wardrobe by Me has mostly basics, but I do like their Ozark vest and utility jacket – and as a very small trans guy, I appreciate that their men’s patterns go down to a 2XS

Thread Theory is one of the places I absolutely have my eyes on for modern menswear – I’d particularly like to make their Gosling short-sleeved button-up, Jutland pants, and Belvedere waistcoat

Folkwear are absolutely inching into the desperately-needed much more unique zone – I have plans to make both their varsity jacket and vintage vests, and also have my eyes on their frontier shirts, sailor pants, shirts of Russia and Ukraine, and poet’s shirt

Black Snail Patterns does historical clothing patterns ranging from 1700 to 1910; I just nabbed their Victorian/Edwardian walking trousers and lounge jacket patterns the other day

Laughing Moon Mercantile also do historical patterns, likewise I am planning on making their Victorian shirts and neckwear (which has 15 different historical neckwear suggestions included) and Victorian notched collar vest

The Tudor Tailor do 16th century clothing, which might be a bit bold even even for historybounding for most people, but they do great work, and I highly recommend their bias-cut footed hose as well as their excellent books

(Last but not least, I would be remiss not to mention Norah Waugh’s The Cut of Men’s Clothes, which is a book and not a pattern retailer might be best for slightly more advanced sewers, but I did make a really excellent 1600s cassock using a pattern from it that has gotten a lot of compliments as everyday wear!)

Frustrating as the men’s sewing landscape is, there are still some fun things out there, and it’s worth the digging! I vote we all make weird clothes and start a fashion revolution.

[ayamccabre]

Cosplay and LARP patterns are worth a look, though the ratio is still very skewed. You need a good eye for what patterns are plausible though, and how to adapt them for different fabrics. That’s another part of this problem - you have to be good with patterns to be able to make the stuff but how do you learn the 101 stuff if you have to jump right into pattern drafting?

[stormsbreadth]

#theres a guy called Mark Francis who was on the Great British Sewing Bee a few years bacl#and he does some really cool men’s patterns! (via @shutupeiffel)

I had a look at his shop and it’s honestly pretty delightful. Particular fan of the seventh doctor inspired trousers.

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

[jae-felidae]

Oh hey! Haven’t seen this in forever! Didn’t reblog it when it came across me before, not gonna skip it this time, I need some good vibes.

[fearthefuzzybear]

oh uh. scuse me. just a lil snail crossing your dash

[alex51324]

I love how certain I am that I’m not the only person who stopped scrolling to let the snail finish crossing the dash.  

In fact, I would bet small sums of money that the majority of Tumblr folk do.    

[teatops]

Rb for the lil hops it does at the end before it finishes crossing 🥺💓

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

[mellointheory]

and what about you, little haiku bot? do you feel kinship with your brethren? do you understand them? they speak words of enticement and seek love, but are met with disdain. you only parrot the words that cross your screen, but we all love you. or rather, since all you do is reflect us, maybe we simply love ourselves through you.

do you understand them, do you wish you could speak to us like they do? if you found your own voice, would we still care for you?

[the-haiku-bot]

My voice repeats what

you all say: I love you I

love you I love you.
