worse: it takes him even longer :( the extra time is for him to have 100 extra moral dilemmas about if he should use the gun or not

(he never uses the gun)

the late March of the Calendar Council was actual historical figure John Cassell, noted temperance campaigner, coffee salesman, and working man's friend. i was reading his Wikipedia page for......... reasons. and hey did you guys know that he's the reason the fuel for cars is called "gasoline"?

he sold a fuel-oil named Cazeline (named after himself, obviously), and then another seller started selling fuel oil named cazeline. when Cassell found out, he asked the other seller to stop, who then changed the name to gazeline.

can you believe that shit. what the fuck

People liking your personal OCs is still such a crazy feeling, I've been doing this for years and ppl asking about them still fills my entire heart with warmth and idk how to handle it

You enjoy this fictional guy I made up for fun?? Whose only content is random artwork or writing made by me and a handful of other artists at most? They have no show/book/game with a large fandom, it's just one person with an art blog?? I love u

writing historical fiction will make you google things like “when we’re towels invented?” “how much did a towel cost in American in 1885?” “historical average number of towels owned per household”

i am forced to assume that fbg made it bad on purpose to teach me a valuable lesson on fiscal responsibility

The Forbidden Treacheries That FBG WON’T Tell You About

Treachery of Seams: Invoked whenever characters have horribly anachronistic clothing/hairstyles/accessories. The Devils did this one but didn’t expect the consequences and now we have mall goth flat irons sometimes. That just happened to Griz’s hair when she woke up one day.

Treachery of Cradles: Everyone’s on birth control apparently there’s no human babies down here unless they’re needed for the plot or infertility angst. Urchins are born through fucking spores.

any of you have preferred ways of grinding hinterland scrip? i was doing mammoth ranching until that got nerfed, so i switched to professional activities, but now im bored of it 😔 might switch back to mammoth ranching even though idk if it's still efficient, just because i miss my beautiful wife, the bone market

“Before You Embark On A Journey Of Revenge, Dig Two Graves”. what a stupid fucking quote. I’m killing way more than two people idiot

now hold on just a minute where on earth is the parabolan part implied.

lore wiki you cant just post that with no source - especially since the whole part during the gift involves needing her sister to Take Something From You in order to appear human so this doesnt track.

( i presume this theory comes from the gift text where she looks the same in the mirror compared to her siblings? but at most thats an interesting theory, not facts. unless ive missed something. )

something i've been curious about

[irrigos]

everybody tweets like a social theorist these days, blaming their sad little lives on the commodification of art, decline of third spaces, hyperindividualism, and other such nonsense. I, on the other hand, know what's causing my misery--the demiurge's curse

This is why no one on the Calendar Council is mutuals with June anymore smh… based on that one picture of Junji Ito (under the cut along with the very powerful rough sketch)

Was thinking about the Firmament prologue with @awordbroken and went down a Wikipedia rabbit hole, starting with the War of the Roses, down to the Burgundian state, down to the city of Ghent, looked at duchesses from around the time of the War of the Roses, and landed on these two that possibly remind me of the Last Duchess' outfit (especially Mary). I'm not sure that everything lines up but I thought it was interesting nonetheless and we shall see

Regardless of all this. The War of the Roses was in the latter half of the 1400s and the fourth city fell in the 1100s right? So wonder if the G- city was meant to be the fifth city and the Masters mucked it up beyond repair
