[superkitty4789]

I wanna start doing lists/rankings. I doubt anyone will wanna see them, but it's for me, so that's fine.

If anyone does wanna see. Some might have spoilers (like this one), so look out for that.

Anywhoo...

MY TOP 10 FAVORITE STRAWHATS

10 Sanji. I don't hate Sanji per se, as whenever he's not being weird around women, I actually like him. The problem is when he's around women. I don't like it. Stop it. Stahp. That being said at least he's cool when he's not around women and his genuine relationships with his crew and Zeff make me happy. I love his rivalry with Zoro

9. Usopp. Oh boy. I HATED him as a kid. I'm still not the biggest fan of him now, either. But he's... fine, and at least he gets better as the show progresses. He does get braver and less cowardly. But I still hate how much of a wuss and braggart he is. Also... his luck annoys me at times, but at least it comes in handy

8. Chopper. He was once one of my favorite straw hats, but as I got older, his naivity and gullibility started irking me. His "We need a doctor " joke was never funny to me either. He's still AWESOME. Don't get me wrong, all the straw hats are. I know my complaints about Usopp and Sanji may make anyone think i think otherwise, but i do geniounly like all the straw hats as characters. But those irks about Chopper are why he's so low. That being said, he's still a great character, and I love how compassionate he is about being a doctor. He's also adorable. I want to hug him.

7. Luffy. He's awesome! I just like the others more, sorry Luffy...I truly hate to put you this low. He's everything I love in an anime protagonist. Stubborn, brave, determined to protect those he loves. He can be smart when he needs to be and is so dang cool. Luffy is one of the best anime protagonists of all time, and I can't wait for him to be king.

6. Zoro. I love that he's not just a badass. He's also kinda dumb, and it makes him more endearing. But he's also still badass and super loyal. Amazing character, feck yeah. His directions gag is pretty funny, too. I also love the idea of three sword styles, and he actually makes it super cool.

5. Franky. Reverse chopper, he used to be one of my least favorites. But my God is he so FUNNY. He is easily the funniest character, in my opinion. He's also super epic, and I love his take on masculinity and how sensitive he is. I will say, tho...not a big fan of his redesign. I also love that he refuses to wear pants. Overall, great character.

4. Nami. She is so awesome. From day one, she was epic and I love that for the most part, she isn't a Damsel in distress. Her take on Fishmen despite what happened to her makes me respect the hell out of her. She's so strong and brave and even kind. She may be greedy, but it makes a lot of sense. Easily one of the best characters.

3. Brook. Look...I may not like his panty thing, but at least it's over fast and isn't as cringy as Sanji's thing. That being said... I admit I'm biased. I tend to like skeleton characters because I think they're cool. And well...Brook is no exception. He's a gentleman, a musician, and has skull jokes! There's so much to like about him!

2. Robin. She's my 2nd favorite character in the whole show. She's so intelligent and mysterious and super freaking cool! I love how she slowly starts to trust the straw hats and build bonds with them. Her character arc is my favorite in the entire show. I cannot stress how much I ADORE her. Amazing character. I will fight anyone on this.

1. Jinbe. Best character in the show, but it's close between him and Robin. Again,... some bias, as I think he's attractive. But I genuinely like him as a character, too. Fishmen are my favorite species in one piece, and I tend to like tackles of racism in media as a species. I liked this about the faunus in RWBY, too. Jinbe is a badass. He's funny and oh so huggable. Oh, and I love how he acts like a gentleman. So polite and well spoken. He's just...so damn cool, too. Love him. I love him so much

TIER LIST TIME

C Tier, lowest to highest: Sanji, Usopp, Chopper

Doctor Who, but Chronologically: 41

Well. Holy shit.

It's 1955, and hot on the heels of the incredibly socially important episode about Partition, we get one of the greatest episodes this show has ever produced: Rosa, co-written by Malorie Blackman.

(Funnily enough, once again, this dumbest of watch orders has triumphed - this close to Demons in the Punjab, you feel emotionally prepped for Rosa. "Ah yes," you think. "A much-needed and blindingly important historical episode that educates white British people in race relations. One of the functions of Doctor Who."

You still aren't ready.)

I mean this without hyperbole: of every episode, book, comic, radio show, and everything else Doctor Who has ever produced or had a hand in, this one makes you feel the imminent danger to the companions the most, and on a level that none other ever has. We get Whittaker, Ryan, Yaz and Graham back as they all go to Montgomery Alabama, the day before Rosa Parks stages her sit-in protest, and sweet Christ on a stick they do not pull their punches in making every single white person into a raging cunt of epic proportions. They do not shy away from stressing that Ryan could be lynched at literally any time and it would be legally sanctioned. They are not coy about citing the real-life murder of Emmett Till - murdered for daring to speak to a white woman - within seven minutes of the opening credits, after a white man physically assaults Ryan and snarls that he will have him "swinging from a tree with a rope for a kerchief, boy".

It is visceral and shocking and completely out of the normal tone of this show. Part way through, Ryan chooses to go off alone because his spine is apparently made of fecking titanium, and I honestly don't think I relaxed for the rest of the episode (although it leads to a fantastic scene of him meeting the leaders of the civil rights movement, including Martin Luther King Jr, and I really mean that it is FANTASTIC). I've watched companions be menaced by everything from statues to large pepper pots to fucking Bertie Botts; I've seen them trapped in drifting spaceships, partially turned into birds and fish, stuck in the Blitz, slaughtered in the Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve, melted, possessed, infected, mutilated, and threatened with compulsory roller derby membership. I have seen it all and then some. Some I have seen in more than one iteration.

This is the only episode where I have been genuinely frightened for one. I've aged, Tumblrs. 73, I am now. Wizened.

Anyway. You know the story of Rosa Parks sitting on the bus and refusing to give her seat to white people. This episode does cover that, but it does so through the medium of an awful time travelling neo-Nazi, complete with Richard Spencer haircut, who has been released from intergalactic prison Stormfront Stormcage and decided to use a vortex manipulator like Captain Jack's to come to 1955 and stop the Montgomery Bus Boycott from happening. There's a nasty scene where he tells Ryan he's doing it to stop Ryan's "kind" from "rising above their station", so when I say he's a neo-Nazi, I am not pissing about, and nor was this show. (Ryan shoots him with a time gun in the end that sends him to a prehistoric past trololol enjoy that, conservative, you people love The Past)

The TARDIS team spend the episode trying to nudge history back into place so the protest can happen. It's genius, really - super simple sci-fi plot, so the focus can be on the social issues. There's a beautiful conversation between Ryan and Yaz about the way they both still face racism in the present day, and the way Ryan has to constantly police his emotions and faces police discrimination even now; but, also about the nature of social change, and the importance of looking forwards and fighting the good fight. There's also a great scene when they first get on a bus - Ryan is forced to sit at the back, but Yaz doesn't know where to sit. The driver lets her on at the front, but she's not white - so which box do they want her in? "Does 'coloured' just mean black in the 1950s?" she asks, having been accused twice of being 'Mexican'. It's a subtle performance, but the indecision of it - guessing if she's endangering herself or not - is shown to be genuinely distressing.

God, fuck, this is such a good episode. It's absurdly good. They fit so much in 42 minutes, while still making it a Doctor Who episode and yet not shirking on any of the fundamental issues. And the writing is still deftly done - there's a dry humour that they intersperse throughout as a palate cleanser that never undoes the impact of the social stuff, like some stupid MCU LOL NOT REALLY bit of obnoxious bathos; instead it's a foil for the serious stuff, making it that bit more impactful. And! A rare Sexy Lamp Test pass for all three companions! That does not often happen in Chibnell's run, so shout out there.

Anyway. ANYWAY. I could honestly write a whole scene by scene breakdown of this episode complete with citations and explain in exquisite detail how much I love it, punctuated with "We laughed at this bit, and then cried at this bit, and threw shoes at the screen at this bit" but uhhhh, that is not the point of this project. So I shall stop.

Plot threads! Any answers? Not really. A few things we've seen before though, like the vortex manipulator, that was fun.

And apparently there's a big prison called Stormcage that puts anti-violence implants into its inmates' heads before release! That's fun. Good to know that policy.

“She” (an unknown person) is returning (perhaps River returned as Missy. Maybe Me? Maybe Clara???!)

There is something on Donna’s back

An entire planet, Pyrovilia, just… disappeared, somehow. (Maybe because the TARDIS is exploding??? Saturnine was also lost, and that WAS because of the TARDIS exploding.

[mochalottie]

Some of you asked, and you shall receive! My playlist for writing/for Spider and the Tonowari Fam! Be warned, quite a lot of these are film music or classical stuff. Because I can't write whilst listening to lyrics because it's distracting. Otherwise, I'd be listening to Kpop as I write!

First, our little boy, my #1 blorbo, my hunny bun sugar plum; Spider! His main theme? Here I Am from Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron! An oldie, to be sure, but still a goodie to my ears. The lyrics just link so well to his character, and how Pandora is his home and he fought to keep it that way. You know? Ooo and a classical theme for him: Alone in the World from the Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack. Just listen to it please? It's beautiful, and so playful, yet connotates so much and Alexandre Desplat is a fecking genuis.

Secondly, our badass mum of the year; Ronal. The beauty, the goddess. For our brilliant woman, a classical piece: Mars from Gustav Holtz's The Planets. Specifically the 1984 recording with the Berlin Philharmonic and Herbert von Karajan. Why? Because it sounds like how I think Ronal's feelings work. You see the anger, and the passion on the horizon, but it's not quite ready to strike. Until it does in an impressive crescendo that's sure to give you the shivers!

Thirdly, Tsireya. Kind, gorgeous Tsireya who's smile has my heart (and most definitely Lo'ak's). I couldn't quite figure out what to give her as a theme, but then I figured it out. The piece The Tulkuns Return from the Way of Water soundtrack. It just feels like a musical description of her aura, in a way? I can't really describe it but there you go.

Aonung was tricky to think of, because he's a big brother, but also playful and knows how to work Spider out of his shell. But then I figured it out: Forbidden Friendship from How to Train Your Dragon. Powell, you brilliant bastard you, kicking me right in the feels. Specifically, I feel this piece perfectly showcases how Aonung and Spider's relationship has grown from something tiny into a thing that is awe inspiring, beautiful, and nearly larger than life.

Lastly, best dad Tonowari. I needed something stately, nearly grand, epic in proportions, because he's a strong leader, but also a good father. So, what better than The Legend of Ashitaka from Princess Mononoke. Strange choice, yes, but the way it builds into the grand motif, but still has the quiet moments towards the end just-- ah, Hisaishi you do it every time.

In terms of general stuff? I listened to Mermaids from Pirates on the Caribbean On Stranger Tides for the palulukan chase in chapter one because of the tension build up. But otherwise, I just shuffle my classical/games/film playlist and hop to it (which I will link but I doubt people will want to listen to it. And warning, it is quite long).

Anyway! Ta ta for now! The chapter is at like 7k at the moment and I've not done the last (and biggest) scene so look forward to that tomorrow my lovelies <33

[malscare]

I don’t ever want to spoil anything, but if anyone wants to get the gist of Riverdale and it’s insanity without watching, I love Alex Meyer’s YouTube videos on it bc you learn about the fecking way the writers continue to up their game of “what ridiculousness can we get away with,” without having to suffer for it lol. They randomly have musical episodes and supernatural stuff and ugh, I can’t imagine the regret I’d have sticking to the show for 7 seasons 😅

okay my thing is i have watched video essays about it and i know it gets like unwatchably stupid in the boring way at some point, so i probably will stop and do what u suggested when that time comes but i have to see it through to at least the epic highs and lows of high school football or the heathers musical episode

TPN S2 Appreciation

I remembered I started this so here we are: there's a lot of problems with s2 but you've probably heard everyone talk about them anyway so I'm skipping that and going straight to all the stuff I DID like about s2:

opening

episode 1

(episode 1) seeing them interact with the environment

(episode 1) Ray running + being out of breath animation and voice acting

episode 2

(episode 2) especially the parallel with the drop like holy shit

episode 3

(episode 3) the fish bug scene while maybe out-of-place is pretty cute and funny

(episode 3) the wall scare is pretty ominous and as of ep3, not yet stupid.

the **OPENING**

(episode 4)

(episode 5) the shot of the apple rolling and the camera turning over with it. so cool.

(episode 4) Ray shooting the demon animation cut even though Emma was robbed

(episode 4) Chris knowing the bunker tunnels after we saw him playing there with other children is really nice. Especially knowing that in the manga he's sad he can't explore properly, I think it's a nice in-character touch haha.

(episode 5) masked Norman with blood splattering behind him

Myuk Mahou cover art makes them look so cuteeeee

portraying the two worlds in parallel from the OP to wanting to care and save your family

the opening making me cry every time

cup-kun memes

(episode 3) them entering the bunker being so fecking tense and suspenseful, like i was expecting a corpse the entire time pff-

(episode 5) ray and emma using hand signals during the rooftop chase

(episode 5) the natural in-convo reveal about how they hide their scent by Lani/Thoma

(epsiode 5) the detail that they throw it in the fire to spread the masking scent when the old demon gets there

(episode 5) the old demon scene (listen ik people questioned this, but it's an old weak demon... I kind of see it like helping out a weak strong animal. I doubt this old geezer would have jumped Emma; it could reveal their location, that's true, but oh well - it’s implied he met them more often before so maybe Emma just slowly considered over time / maybe her realizing they’re not that different and all that yadayada)

(episode 5) Emma doubting herself because they've literally just been chased around (ik some people didn't like this and I get why but they've been barely surviving for like 11 months... she's lost and paralyzed, she's allowed to have her doubts, though they could be worded a bit differently. It just sucks that there wasn’t much of an arc regarding this after that, so. Yay Norman Christ has rescued us all.)

(episode 6) the reunion hug / scene, it looked so soft and nice ahhh- the entire art in that scene was just nice.

(episode 6) the atmosphere and framing of when Barbara was eating the demon meat. it came pretty unexpected and the moment you realize was such a big “ohhh… oh no.“

(episode 7) Lani and Thoma mentioning the migrating birds during their tower watch and that then later coming back when the kids think about where they could be was nice!

(episode 7) Norman’s soft “be careful” to Emma and Ray

(episode 7) Also Ray's reaction to "the gate is in gf" is just a mood haha

(episode 7) THE SHIPMENT PARALLELS! the sounds, grabbing his hand this time when he had to take hers during his shipment AHHH-

(episode 7) evolvment of the “dont do it on your own / involve your family/friends” by asking Gilda and Don to come with them on the search for Sonju/Mujika. Sadly this doesn’t carry over to ep11 where they decide to do sth as drastic as staying behind for god-knows-how-long without letting anyone know beforehand.

(episode 7) like their reactions to it are so wholesome, I really like how it is portrayed. Especially because up until now Emma was still bottling up. Idk I like that it takes a while for this to really settle in properly.

episode 8

(episode 8) “are you god?” / “I’ll be a god or a devil” / “are you a human?”

(episode 8) showing the demon suffering pretty graphically for what I expected

(episode 8) the simple fact that I got the experience of pure euphoria and a laughing attack when the parallel between Vylk and Norman was actually a thing, when I was so confused why they both had a distinct characteristic (the walking stick) in episode 5. My friends thought I was crazy but I was just big brain. (we were robbed of more stick though)

(episode 8) norman hand symbolism, with blood, Emma grabbing it, him looking at it and how it ties Emma to his plan inherently and then when it's not his blood on his hands but someone's that he's taking away from another living being.

(episode 9) the unspoken realization that he’s not the only one being tested by the test scanner was on the right-hand side. good shit. Ik thats technically not the anime’s idea but I like how they put the focus on it with blur and didn’t actively state it.

(episode 9) him coughing up blood to show how fast it’s been progressing/getting worse // though that implies he refused to take his meds OR that its that bad even with the meds which I don’t think is the point. Like the psychological warfare of giving the kids a condition that they can only fight while they’re in their prison bc they’ll run out of meds is just. hHHH

(episode 9) I really liked Norman going to talk to Vylk and… hhh- Emma *AHEM* and how he didn’t really know what to say, and .........… E-EmMa going up to him and apologizing for what demons did, showing empathy and understanding AND ABSOLUTING WRECKING NORMAN and me. man, cycle of hatred bad.

(episode 10) Emma speaking over the radio to everyone is just… so heartfelt ahh

(episode 10) The little kids sneaking amongst the others is rly cute and honestly kind of epic haha

(episode 10) the moms/sisters either not noticing them or not doing anything bc they’re on their side anyway is just… a funny thing to think about either way

(episode 10) Phil and Emma hug TvT

(episode 10/11) MICHELLEEEEEEE

(episode 11) the turning ceiling is pretty

(episode 11) I like the shadow asthetic of the Ratri exposition, generally the Ratri exposition is pretty nice aside from being so fast you cannot take all that in and process it properly

(episode 11) dramatic gate closing is dramatic

(episode 11) the slideshow of them in the human world gives nice glimpses into things, even if… very vague haha. Especially the shot of Isabella playing guitar stuck with me. And Phil on a train! Not a steam one, sadly.

(episode 11) while the demon world slideshow is uhhhhh SOMETHING, I do like that the weird dragon-on-water thing is in both the Ratri exposition during the promise thing and then also at the end, which at least gives A BIT of context to what's likely happening. Idk I liked that, but then again my standards aren't very high.

I'm not saying any of this outweighs the problems bc oh boy, but ye.

[aquitainequeen]

Today, while playing DnD and fighting a party that includes a wizard and a cleric:

‘The cleric uses polymorph to turn the wizard into an elephant.’

‘...what???’

‘An elephant. Which charges at you, trying to gore you.’

‘Hmm...yep, it gets through my armour.’

‘So it gores you. It’s also trying to push you backwards off the bridge. Make me a strength check.’

‘I roll a 28, so yeah, I’m staying right where I am. With an elephant tusk in my shoulder, but holding it at bay.’

‘Epic. And now, fittingly enough, it’s your turn.’

‘Can I climb up the elephant’s trunk and onto its back?’

‘...sure, make me an athletics check.’

‘27. I get up to its back and attack with my long sword and battle axe. I’m gonna be like Legolas!’

’So the cleric loses his concentration, meaning the elephant promptly turns back into a wizard, and both he and the barbarian plummet several feet to the ground.’

‘Ah, feck!’

‘Indeed. Also, five damage.’

[lady-book-trash]

i got my new into the wild tarot deck !

these cards are actually so fecking pretty i might keel over and die.

to the left is my lovely kalanchoe tomentosa, aka panda plant. thanks to the crew from this epic gardening discord server for identifying it!

[terminally-karkalicious]

allow me to rant about the only thing that has been in my brain for the past two months and that is doll customizing babeyyyyy

i know there’s a 90% chance that you wont give a Shit about any of this but here we go anyways

SO first you gotta choose a doll. preferably one with a high range of motion to avoid creating new joints or having annoying limitations like not having elbow joints for some fucking reason. what the fuck mattel. give monster high dolls back their ball jointed shoulders and elbow joints. smh

the most common dolls ive seen used as bases are monster high and ever after high. most customs ive seen are highly stylized so the stylized face molds work well for those types of dolls but dolls like barbies are good for when you want a more realistic face-ups.

once you’ve got your base picked out you gotta wipe that bitch’s face off with like. acetone or nail polish remover or something strong like that. you can also use acetone to shrink doll heads which is cool as hell imo. n e way once the face is wiped you gotta chop off the hair and remove the hair plugs from the inside. ive seen this done several ways but the easiest and most common way ive seen is to dunk the head into boiling water for ~30 seconds until it gets squishy and malleable. once you’ve got the head back, you can use pliers (i think tweezers would work in a pinch) to pull out the hair plugs which are kinda icky because theyre covered in glue and other gross shit. ew

now you must decapitate the doll. dunk em back in the boiling water to soften them back up then just tug the head off. the neck pegs look funky and are usually a different color than the body so thats cool ig

once the head’s off, you can start the face-up which is basically just giving the doll a new face using stuff like watercolor pencils, acrylic paint, gouache, and a whole lot of other stuff. hell ive seen people use person makeup on these dolls.

next,,,,, hair. there’s about twenty million ways to do hair from gluing yarn wefts to sewing to rerooting with purchased nylon doll hair or yarn wefts but i’m gonna talk about the most common one ive seen which is rerooting and gluing.

before you can reroot, you need doll hair. which, as i mentioned, can be bought at stores like the doll planet or made at home with yarn in literally any color. have fun with it! make rainbow hair or something idk

to make homemade wefts, you take some acrylic yarn, cut it twice as long as you want the hair to be (keep in mind you can cut and style the hair once it’s been rerooted), fold them in half, and tie it to something sturdy like a wire coat hanger for the next step.

once you’ve got your yarn tied to your hanger, use a pet brush and brush the yarn until it’s wispy and looks like hair. then take a straightening iron and iron the weft flat. then remove from the hanger and boom. hair wefts. ta-da

to reroot the wefts onto the head, use a rerooting tool (which can be as simple as a needle with the eye cut at angle) (just google it please i’m shit at descriptions)) to poke small sections of the hair into the head. you can use the pre-existing rooting holes for your own reroot as they’re usually pretty reliable. to reroot, take a small length of you doll hair (about 10-15 strands), loop it in half, and put the middle of the loop into the reroot tool. poke the end of the tool with the hair on it into the pre-existing hole and remove the tool. the hair *should* stay in and fill up that plug!! also remember to plug thickly at the hairline and part of the hair where it's most noticeable. it doesnt matter as much in the center of the head as that’s not usually visible on the doll. once you’ve rerooted, squeeze in strong glue through the neck hole and squish around the head to make sure it covers all the plugs and secures them in place. then pour hot water onto the head to make the hair lay flat for styling later.

also, you can reroot yarn directly into the head to make thicker, more textured hairstyles. and since the yarn is thicker, you dont need to glue the inside of the head for the hair to stay in place!!

if youre not doing body modifications (which are also cool as hell) then it’s time for clothes but clothes are boring and i like body mods more so i’m gonna rant about them instead

the material ive seen most doll artists use is apoxie sculpt, which is like play doh on steroids. it comes in two parts which you gotta mix together for some reason. why dont they sell it pre-mixed. what was the reason. also once it’s dry it’s super super strong and you can sand it, drill into it, paint it, and all kinds of stuff. very nice and i want some for myself.

you can use hand saws and drills and shit to whack off doll limbs to make stuff like digitigrade legs or new joints. also dont be afraid to use other mismatching doll parts when customizing like heads and bodies and forearms and hands and shit. it literally does not matter if youre gonna recolor the doll anyways so have fun with it. make frankenstein’s doll if youre feeling spicy

accessories my beloved. stuff like tiny beads and clay baubles and shit will literally transform the entire doll plus they’re adorable and multi-purpose

i suppose i must talk about clothes now. ah well. you can find great clothing patterns if youre new to customizing on other customizer’s etsy shops and probably google although those will probably be lower quality than paid pattern pieces. and keep in mind that if it exists as clothing irl, you can likely make it doll-sized. there are literally no limits to your clothing options as long as you can execute your idea.

the once all your components have been made, you can assemble the doll again!! and finally see what all the parts look like together!! very cool 10/10 stars.

ight that wraps up my doll rant. i could really go into more detail on certain parts but thats a whole other rant for a whole other day smh. sorry for fucking flooding your inbox ender ahaha……………. you asked for this

little did you know that dolls have been one of my favorite things since like ever. if i can read a 25 chapter long fanfic i can read this B)

mattel definitely fucked up by completely ruining MH doll designs and just stopping EAH, alot of their profits most likely came from people who collect and customize dolls and by changing MH doll designs/Stopping EAH dolls they 1. most likely lost a small (or big if we're not jus talking people who customize dolls) part of their profit and 2. made it harder for doll customizers to make dolls/get commissions out rather quickly because they probably have to waste more time making joints or learning how to make joints.

EAH/MH dolls (specifically MH dolls) had AMAZING MODELS because there was so much variety with height, face shapes, etc (my favorite molds had to be the short/tall dolls and the cat molds because of the tails) and doll customizers really went all out with enhancing a molds unique features. The only "downside" abt MH dolls is that they (or atleast most)(from what i remember)) had slimmer faces but wider eyes while EAH dolls have wider faces with slimmer smaller which left a canvas for the face and not the eyes (and vice versa for MH dolls)

I've never seen any videos where a barbie is customized (maybe because i absolutely despised barbies at the time) so I'll definitely have to check those out but they seem to be good for realistic makeovers. I've seen like like semi realistic makeovers for EAH/MH dolls that were pretty good too tho (pretty sure mostly EAH dolls since yk MH dolls were used for creature makeovers while most EAH dolls weren't)

yeah i was always amazed by the head shrinking with acetone. honestly i still am?? idunno i have no idea how that chemical bullshit works. Ive seen a few of uh makeovers that just pain over the face (in multiple layers ofcourse) but that's usually when they're painting the entire body a different colour (again usually when they're turning a doll into a funky little baby man). I've also seen a few that just chop the hair off and take out the hair plugs yk without uuh like softening the head or just go straight for the hair plugs after taking off the head (i used to do that it was funny to me??). i always really liked when they used watercolour pencils or just colour pencils in general to draw/sketch on the face cause like wow ur drawing on ur doll without ruining it?? kinda epic maybe even poggers and pogchamp?? oh god my brain is failing wjshsmsj.

Watching them putting the hair back on the doll was, other than the face stuff, was the BEST part for me. Favorite type of hair was iuuuuuh was either thick yarn or brushed out yarn. Literally worship the people that would reroot the hair, theyre the most patience people on this earth!! it's literally insane but i guess that's what happens when you've been doing that for years? you guess kinda get used to it. when they put glue into the head does it just become stiff?? like it's just a clump of dried glue or does it like..hollow out again??

dude you literally cannot convince me most of the supplies used for doll makeovers. APOXIE CLAY LOOKS SO FECKING GOOD. its edible and i will die on that hill. The body mods are literally so amazing!!!!! it's so impressive how theyre able to imagine certain features THEN LIKE ACTUALLY MAKE IT LOOK ACCURATE TO WHAT THEY WANTED TO LOOK LIKE AFTER LIKE ON TRY (or many yk trial and error is very necessary for..everything). Absolutely loved when doll customizers would saw off a dolls legs and use different ones or just completely get rid of the torso to use a different one. it's like uuh that one big guy that's mismatched and sewn together. very cool. The accessories are so fun!! just small little details you seen really need but can add because it's your feckin doll!! I used to be absolutely obsessed over the doll clothes i would find on etsy, so much so that i started sewing shitty shirts and dresses for my uh "customized" dolls (they were absolute HORRORS idk WHY my mom let me feck up my dolls like that).

Thank you for this!! i haven't been able to talk about any of my interests for a while and this just really made me happy!!

Question fer u my fellow MH/EAH enthusiast: what was your favorite MH/EAH movie/episode and doll series. Mine was The fusion dolls (MH obvi) and that MH movie "Haunted" cause we got to know more about Spectra :D

One Piece Chapter 983 - Initial Thoughts

The ending may be exciting but there’s a little bit of suffocation happening in the raid as we continue with One Piece

Spoilers of course, Support the Official Release

Back with the Cover Story and the family reunion happened! Now watch Pound have amnesia...

Fecking Perospero with his ability to make candy waves, Big Mom and co are not out of the picture yet

Looks like BM is prioritizing Zeus over the tank, but the tank has reconfigured to legs, must be something relevant for that, we still haven’t seen Franky yet either

At least Carrot’s being polite about telling Zeus to stop being a snitching bitch

Zeus doesn’t seem to wanna come with though, which will stir the pot nicely

To be fair ladies, Sanji doesn’t hit women so he wouldn’t have been much help anyway...

You tend to forget that Big Mom has a DF that can animate the inanimate, what if she animates something that reveals something? Overall though even in Wano it is a tad terrifying

Oh god Momo, they are fast tracking that to hell, and Queen is with Orochi so it will not be an easy feat to get him

The Zoro stuff has me a little worried...like, Zoro wouldn’t, right? Joy Boy Theories often liked to do a ‘Zoro leaves the Crew’ theory and I always disliked the idea, but come on, not Kaido...he may feign it though to get close, but he’s not even using 3 swords...He can’t go all out just yet, even if beating 500 gifters would do some bounty buffing

Also found it odd that the gifters just assumed that Zoro wanted to be King, that may be where they fail also

Kid and Killer are holding their own though, preying on the distraction caused off-screen when the gifters learn about Yamato...maybe one of the Flying Six is nearby

Yeah, I love Ulti...I didn’t like the official release’s translation last chapter, at least compared to ‘Go, go! Pay-Pay!’ ‘Pay-Pay, dearest’ and ‘GIMME A DAMN PIGGYBACK RIDE’ but her mannerisms are hilarious

Wano is just full of epic clashes isn’t it? Oden/WB, Roger/WB, Luffy/Kaido, Zoro/Hawkins and now Luffy/Ulti

The moment she did that headbutt I knew what Zoan she had though, Pachycephalosaurus - if you’re unfamiliar, think Craniados/Rampardos from Pokémon

My enjoyment of Ulti grows with her seriousness too, she quickly acknowledges Luffy’s strength, exhibits her own Observation Haki to reprimand a goon and gets acknowledged by Luffy, plus her DF is not as bad as I thought Oda could’ve gone

It is a little worrisome though that Luffy feels like he needs Gear Fourth to beat a Flying Six member, it’s like Cracker over again. Though I’m glad they didn’t Blueno her like they did to Pay-Pay

Thunder Bagua raises a brow, Kaido’s kid is here with the Shinigami mask, apples and trees when it comes to power, plus he kinda dresses like Oden

“Come with me if you want to Live”

Waiting huh? Did he put his chips in Luffy’s corner already? Maybe Wano sneaks in volumes of the manga XD

So a good chapter with the surprise of Yamato and Ulti being awesome. But it is still worrisome, while the samurai’s part is slowly succeeding the Straw Hats are being choked out, Momo is due to be crucified and Perospero is gonna provide a little equalizer to Marco and co, unless he attacks Kaido as well...we still need to wonder about Law, Hiyori, Brook/Franky and probably Robin/Jimbei though I am guessing that Yamato found them first to discover that Luffy was here.

But exhaustion is also a big thing, Sanji’s gone walkabouts like he always does but Zoro, Kid, Killer and Luffy are being pushed into corners, same with Nami, Carrot and Shinobu. And there’s still the question mark of Drake and Hawkins, and Who’s Who is now set to cross Luffy’s path now too.

And we have to wait another week for it D: ah well, Oda earned it, anime comes back next week and this sunday is Father’s Day (in the UK at least), but still...lot to be excited for but a lot to be concerned over too

feck i have a doctors appointment in 2 hours...this is so not an epic gamer moment 😔

1.  If you were an animal, what animal would you be and why? I relate a lot to cats. Sleeping in the sun all day is truly The Dream. Kind of being an asshole because you just want someone to give you attention.

2.  What two anime characters or kpop idols are your type? Sugawaraaaaaaaa Koushi

I'm not going to say Park Jisung but know that's who it it and that's who I'm thinking of

3.  Are there any writers or artists (art or music) that inspire you?  If so, list 5.

Okaaaaaaaaaaaay. Dodie Clark. I think my voice is kinda breathy like hers so if she has so many fans I have some faith I can sound good.

Terry Pratchett. Haven't read a single book of his but everything about him is legendary so it doesn't even matter.

How could I forget the one and only Rick Riordan? Started a story about white straight demigods (who still had ADHD and dyslexia mind you) and expanded it into this whole epic world of actual diverse people. And no publisher could tell him no because by that point he was a literary giant!

Say what you will about the Eragon series but the author started the series when he was 15. Every single book is massive, the fantasy world is incredible. Aka I hope to achieve even 1/5 of what the Eragon series has in whatever I will write

Finally 😯😮😲 Bang Chan. This needs know explanation. If you know about him you know how amazing he is

4.  If you could play any instrument, which would you play? Aaaaaaaah I'll go with piano because a lot of things you learn there is a lot of general music stuff and that would reeeally help me

5.  If you could choose one anime to live in, which one would you choose and why? DAMN. Ok first of all 99% of anime takes place in Japan aka not anywhere near me 🤧 RWBY seems kinda dope anfd I'm hoping if I grew up in that world I'd survive

6.  This is a bit of an old DeviantArt fic trend, but if you received an Android of your favourite character from any anime/show/etc., who would it be? Can I cheat because they’re twins? I obviously haven’t shut the hell up about Alphinaud and Alisaie Leveiller from FF14. If I had to choose one of them. Feck. I’m probably gonna go Alisaie, she’s just such a queen.

7.  Is there anything you would like to do but haven't because your friends/family didn't want to do it with you? I don't think so... I'm not really the type to want to go somewhere or go do something weird in the street or anything. Some of my friends and family are more likely to do it first tbh

8.  What's your favourite flower? Big fan of lilacs since I remember seeing a lot of them in my childhood city

9.  What are some of your hobbies? I like to draw, write, read, dance, sing, watch anime, play video games.

10.  If you were going to be stranded on a deserted island with nothing but the clothes on your back and a bag, what would you put in the bag? Hmmmm I guess some food and maybe some flint? I have no idea how to survive on an island so I have no idea what I'd need 😬

@kaptain-k-pop @ladyluck852 and @nanjaemin

1. When is the last time you can remember feeling totally at peace?

2. Do you think it’s possible to put on mascara with your mouth closed?

3. What are you looking forward to most?

9. What is the biggest lesson you’ve learned so far?

10. What is your favourite thing about your favourite person?

[sobeautifullyobsessed]

No matter how many times I see the epic battle from Endgame, if it’s been at least a couple of days since the last time I watched it, I still go through the exact range of emotions, still shout aloud the same things I did that first night in the movie theatre.

The loudest WHOOO in the whole theatre when Steve lifted Mjolnir for the first time, because bitch it’s about damn time...

“THAT’S MY MAN DOING THAT!!!!”, at the first hint of the first portal...

💖💖💖Starting to cry softly because he looks so damn beautiful and magnificent, like he’s some celestial being descending from the heavens to set all things to rights...

Hand on heart, full fledged crying, “THERE’S MY SORCERERS!!!”  And that can’t ever express how fecking proud I am of the whole lot of them, come from all corners of the world to fight Earth’s greatest battle! 💙💙💙 Man, I love my sorcerers best out of all the armies because---well, like Doctor Strange--they work without recognition and with 100% selfless dedication to defend life wherever it is under threat.

AND THEN FINALLY. FINALLY WE HEAR IT.

AVENGERS ASSEMBLE

...me, blubbering like the blubbering-est fangirl in history

(would you believe I was tearing up just writing this post? 😉 )

[stonestridernerd]

🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 Its a little Blumensträußchen!

That this is, @shuuhuu! Thank you so much for all the lovely flowers!

I'm going to apologize now though, since there is no read more button on mobile, so we're stuck with all my ramblings! Huzzah!

First off, Happy (late!) Canadian Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has eaten well this past weekend and enjoyed some good family time.

I certainly did, to say the least. The holiday was wonderfully peaceful, with all the ham and potatoes I could stuff into my mouth before falling asleep.

Unfortunately, we woke up Monday morning to hear that my great uncle passed away. His wife woke up to find him struggling to breathe. They took him to the hospital, but couldn't get him back up. He was 58 years old, and last we saw him (three weeks ago at another funeral), he was the healthiest of the adults.

It was so shocking that my mum and both of her siblings are going down to Missouri for the funeral. I can't emphasize this enough, but those three are never in the same place. The aunt and mum have a crappy relationship, with the former often flying around the county while mum cares for the grandparents, while my uncle is on and off tours to the Middle East. I'm not sure what to think of this, but I'm hoping we don't have anymore funerals for a while.

Onto less depressing subjects, I've been using my October Writing Challenge prompts on a wee Kul'tiran alt I have named Coquina Barros to flesh her out more.

She's one of three rock based characters I have and the only one that isn't dwarven. As suggested by her name (Coquina, literally translating to seashell in Spanish, is a type of limestone made of compressed and cemented shella. Meanwhile, Barros refers to clay, or the clastic types of these rocks), she's based on sedimentary rocks!

I'm really excited for her, since I've finally solidified that she trains service animals (mostly dogs right now, but she's open to trying to train more exotic creatures). She has her own service pupper, a Kul'tiran water dog named Argie, that helps her with her anxiety and disassociation.

Speaking of help with disabilities, Gizzie's background is actually in prosthetics. It's what she learned as a child to make under her parents' home and she still continues it on the side to this day (hence her fox mount has a nice arcane fueled leg).

I mean, I'm not sure why prosthetics are more common in goblin society. With how much their inventions blow up (and their love of firepower and bombs), you can't convince me that they don't have a high injury rate. Some of those have to be of lost limbs, so why not bring that zany goblin innovation to their medicinal care? I'm talking robotically propelled legs, magically infused arms for the ultimate arcane missels, all the Detective Gagdet beauties. Maybe some bad inventions for the sake of puns, a la a leg designed to be heated up and safely cooked upon without harming the attached goblin (great for on the go bacon and 'baby, my thighs are sizzling' flirts).

TL; DR: I have such a mighty need for incredibly powerful, crazy, and maybe dangerous answers to disability that I've said feck it, I'm doing it. So if you're thinking of having your character lose a limb or deal with trama, I have some ideas.

Next up for rambling, tumblr has shown me a love for tropes I didn't know even existed. For instance, sword lesbians are my jam. I've noticed throughout the years that the only characters who get happy, long lasting relationships to RP are lesbians who wield some epic forking swords. They can actually flirt while the rest of my characters struggle with it as well. I'm not sure what -if anything- that says about me, but it's interesting.

I watched the demoncratic debate about it last week with my sister. Along with learning about the candidates so I can vote in the primaries, I'm trying to get my younger sister more informed about what's going on, what with her 18th birthday coming up next year and right to vote. She seemed to be more interested than last time, so the hope is that she'll be willing to watch the next one with me.

Okay, I'm running out of things to remind myself of or random thoughts, so....have some dogs. The lighter hound is Lola and the black and brown one is Bruno.
