I found an archive of some of my old writing from 2019
and this blurb I made for a (now long abandoned) story hit so hard? Is it nostalgia? Is it cringe? Is it... actually decent?
Tumblr media
Could this story have been good?

I first tried to read Yumi and the Nightmare Painter six months ago.
I got it on sale at the library and I started reading it, but it triggered my catagelophobia and I put it down after Yumi called Akane a concubine.
I picked it up again a couple days ago and I am enjoying it, but I have to put it down every chapter or so to not get overwhelmed. I also have it on audio from my library, but pulling out the paper version helps me deal with the awkward scenes.

Hypothesis: The Hatchy Pile will be a fun activity to do.
Tumblr media
For those new to my blog or unaware, I started The Hatchy Pile where essentially anyone and everyone is welcome to draw their versions of Hatchling and add them to my initial drawing!
When I started it, I had noticed that everyone had so many cool and interesting interpretations of Hatchling. Each one with unique designs and styles/quirks and stories. So, what better way to display that than to start this sort of open collab project with the community!
Aaaaaaand I'm extremely delighted to say that my hypothesis was very much confirmed!
Tumblr media
So many people joined in to add their Hatchlings to the pile and it grew so much that the canvas had to be extended to fit more! It brings me so much joy seeing so many different art styles and so many variations of the silly little fish frog alien we all play as in the game.
And I wanted to extend a HUGE Thank you to everyone who participated!!! For taking time out of your days to join in on an activity as a community. Genuinely, the reception to the Hatchy Pile has been incredible and I hope that this inspires more piles in the future! ::D
Below are the different branches of the Hatchy Pile (bc it can't be an Outer Wilds thing without a little spacetime tomfoolery hehe), along with the artists tagged!

I recently finished Shadows of Self and am enjoying getting back into the cosmere! I had been spoiled about the basic of the twist ending, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
Don't mind me I'm just going to glue googly eyes onto the face of a Steel Inquisitor

A lil 3D CGI guy
Let's do a Hatchling pile!!
------------------------------------------------------

What's this, you might ask? It's the start to the Hatchy Pile!
Essentially, anyone can join in to draw their interpretation or their version of Hatchling. Just reblog with your addition and let's see how many Hatchlings we can fit!
This is something I've participated in, in past fandoms so I thought it'd be fun to do for Outer Wilds ::)
Canvas size is 2400x2950, but feel free to extend it if it gets too full ^^
Update: You can also download my canvas here for the correct resolution (bc Tumblr sucks wheeeze)

So at work today one of my co-workers was talking about how he was going to sue Santa Claus for invasion of privacy. I pointed out that "invasion of privacy" would not be the criminal charge, but that he should sue instead for breaking and entering and for unauthorized surveillance. I then thought about it for a few minutes and realized that one could absolutely invoke castle doctrine (which basically states that it is legal to murder someone who breaks into your house and whom you believe is a threat) against Santa.

While September is the official month of recognition of suicide, every month is a good month to have those hard but crucial conversations. Awareness isn't meant to be just for a month and then forgotten. People suffering from suicidal ideations are used to being forgotten, but that doesn't mean they don't matter. Everyone—whether they are aware of it or not—has someone close to them battling depression; it's just so pervasive. So definitely have those conversations this month, but don't forget the lessons come October 1st. It's a matter of life and death that we don't forget.
