Ok wait let her speak
young artist posting your work online, heed my warning. im holding your face so gently in my hands, you have to stop caring about numbers right now and start caring about making the weirdest and most self-indulgent art you possibly can
Literally the first thought I had was käänteiskentauri
I think there’s an argument to be made that protecting the children from relatively tame shadows of adults concepts actually makes things worse for them.
Like nothing is worse for me as an adult than the entirely unwarranted and unwanted sense of fear or scandalization from perfectly common stuff. And I don’t blame some wonderful TV show for using the word “fuck” or showing a nipple. My responses to those things are entirely constructed and cultural, and those shows are often doing me a kindness by giving me a context in which to safely re-examine them and my relationship to them.
And I just think actually there were a lot more opportunities to have a well adjusted outlook on life for the kids whose parents just told them what fuck meant.
happy birthday, the star war!
my utopia has disability in it. my utopia includes free healthcare and no-questions welfare and state-funded carers. my utopia includes building requirements that centre disabled bodies — ramps and lifts and dimmer switches and braille signs. my utopia has disability in it. because without disability, it’s not much of a utopia at all
Note to vacationing non-Americans: while it’s true that America doesn’t always have the best food culture, the food in our restaurants is really not representative of what most of us eat at home. The portions at Cheesecake Factory or IHOP are meant to be indulgent, not just “what Americans are used to.”
If you eat at a regular American household, during a regular meal where they’re not going out of their way to impress guests, you probably will not be served twelve pounds of chocolate-covered cream cheese. Please bear this in mind before writing yet another “omg I can’t believe American food” post.
Viscous/vicious – Viscous is generally used to describe the consistency of blood or other thick liquids. Vicious is used to describe something or someone who is violent.
Piqued/Peaked/Peeked – To pique someone’s interest is to catch or tease their attention. When something peaks, it reaches its total height or intensity. To peek (at) something is to look briefly, or glance.
Discrete/Discreet – this is a tough one. Discrete means to be separate, or distinct, i.e., two discrete theories. Conversely, when someone is discreet, they are being secretive or cautious to avoid attention.
Segue/Segway – one is a transition between things, the other is a thing you can ride at the park and definitely fall off of.
Conscious/Conscience/Conscientious – to be conscious is to be awake, i.e., not unconscious, or to be aware of something. Your conscience is the little voice in your head telling you not to eat the entire pint of ice cream. Finally, to be conscientious is to be good, to do things thoroughly, to be ruled by an inner moral code.
Hope this helped! Please add more if you think of them!
i’m collecting these

@silenzahra @itsavee4117 @gracegootee ,
You’re welcome
Just a little cute idea I had ;)
I watched a YouTuber play this cuz I wasn’t paying 60 for that, but I really liked the cutscenes and the mini Marios to make a little something. I know that dk, Luigi, peach, and Pauline get their own toys in a later game but I like to make up in-game realities so what can I say
Also, WHEN IS NINTENDO GONNA RELEASE A LUIGI TOY FIGURE/PLUSH!? OR OF ANY OF THE OTHER CHARACTERS!?

I have to say that “warm gentle glow emanating from the shell of a turtle” is without a doubt my favorite genre of lamp
Patton as Deceit - Cheshire Cat motif and grin, but also cat eyes. He looks so approachable and his words are like honey and poison, always insisting that you need to lie because you can’t hurt your friends feelings, that would be super cruel!
Logan as Anxiety - exhausted but never able to sleep because you have to get things DONE OR YOU MIGHT FAIL AND WE CAN’T COPE WITH THAT?!?!! Super socially anxious. Tie is always undone slightly.
Virgil as Morality - super cautious about all the feelings because he has to protect Thomas’s heart. He insists that he be cautious around everyone because he can’t stand the idea that Thomas might get hurt. Heart patches on hoodie.
Roman as Logic - dapper and the glasses are only because he insists they make him look smarter. In his mind Thomas must push for his dreams for they hold new insights, and try new and exploratory things! It’s logical to chase your passions after all, and healthy too! Always make time for the things that make you happy and always strive to learn all that you can, right?
Deceit as Creativity - grade A optimist, he insists Thomas sees the world in a better lens than what it is. Reality? Ignore it! Make new worlds and take ideas as far as they can go! Always striving to help Thomas’s acting and encouraging him and giving him tips to improve. Vitiligo on his eye instead of scales.
They are all good at what they do but something is very wrong. Maybe it’s because Virgil accidentally fell through that mirror? Nothing seemed quite right to him after that but he can’t quite remember what the problem is…..
Mouse AU! @sidespromptblog had a prompt talking abut Mouse!Logan so of COURSE I thought of the Rats of NIMH! I really love that book/movie and I wanted to have a spin on it’s main concepts with a twist!
