an immortal being is sitting, motionless and silent, in a blank room

they have sat here, unmoving, for the last 3,648 days, 7 hours, 13 minutes, and 47 seconds. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53.

Then, they stand up.

and the other figure in the room responds to this.

"Tsk tsk, impatient again, young one. You were less than 2 days short."

"Dang. How far specifically was I off?"

"You waited 87,559 hours and 14 minutes exactly."

"I see.. Ah well. Should I attempt 10 years again?"

"It may help you to practice smaller scales. Try for 3 weeks."

"Hmph. Alright."

And they sit back down, (1 second.) returning to their (2.) stillness, not moving (3.) for the next 21 days. (4.) (5.) (6.) (7.) (8.) (9.) (10.)

#lynnscription #i was watching a vsauce video #and michael mentioned the idea of sitting still and letting time pass and trying to guess when 10 years had passed #and how difficult this would be #and i wondered if it would be possible to become skilled at this

Do you guys notice how when Shawn Fain, president of the United Auto Workers union, started planning a general strike, he did it by a) targeting his messaging towards unions with the ability to safely and effectively strike in large numbers, b) laid out a clear, actionable plan for those unions to follow (setting contracts to all expire at the same time, since many unions cannot strike while under contract), c) is using union contracts to set clear, actionable demands that can be met in order to gauge success and provide an end goal, and d) started organizing FOUR YEARS before the proposed strike date to give people the chance to plan accordingly, because it takes a really freaking long time to get tens of millions of people organized?

You notice how he didn't do it by slapping a message on Twitter saying 'hey nobody go to work on Monday, that'll really show 'em'?

#those 'monday is a general strike stay home if you can!!!' posts are SO performative and they really annoy me #like. you MUST know you can't organize a general strike of tens of millions of people by sharing an infographic on twitter. Right?#don't even get me started on the most recent one that was like 'we understand the last strike only gave one day of notice'#'so this time we're giving you two! strike is on tuesday everyone don't forget!'#like GENUINELY was that supposed to be a joke #the linked article also touches on how difficult actual organizing a workplace is which is nice #because they mention previous failed attempts in which organizers basically just handed out leaflets #and assumed the benefits would be obvious. which i think is basically the equivalent of posting an infographic on twitter #which is to say - not effective at all. Organizing is a LOT of work! Running an effective union even more so!#labor rights

Kingdom Hearts 3 - Nobodies

#kingdom hearts 3 #kh3 #nobodies #dusk #sniper #reaper #ninja #gambler #berserker #sorcerer #my gif #i'm a nobody enjoyer so of course i'm gonna make another set with them #nobodies are so reflective in this game i wonder if it they were originally intended to look this way #it would have been difficult to visually convey that in the old engine since lighting and shadows were all drawn onto the texture map #but that's not an issue anymore since there are far less lighting and graphical restrictions #anyways i'm glad we got a couple new nobodies #because their designs rule #i love how the one that represents marluxia can morph its body to look like the pod that sora slept in at castle oblivion #while the one that represents larxene has flowy scarf tails that are reminiscent of her unique hairstyle. the knife hands are cool

A little flannel cow!

I think her name has to be Dottie

#sewing #handmade #plushie #cow plushie #some interesting construction in this cow pattern #like. not unique but just enough different that it’s got me thinking of how I could do something like that #all in all 10/10 excellent pattern would make again #not super beginner friendly but also not difficult to make if you’ve made a plushie before

It's 2024 and there are still people who *checks notes* apparently hate Damian for sometimes being a prick who acts "disrespectful" towards other heroes including Bruce. You know, Bruce Wayne aka Batman, the grown-ass man who is often written as a prick who doesn't respect the people around him because he thinks he knows better than everyone else.

Who could have thought that the offspring of such a man might turn out to be just as stubborn and bad at social interactions as he is.

#like seriously #why would Bruce have a biological offspring that is kind mild-mannered and well-adjusted #and why would you want that when Bruce having to face his own issues in the form of a child is both more interesting and funnier #bruce wayne #damian wayne #there are many things to dislike about how Grant Morrison went about introducing a bio son of Bruce into the main universe #but Damian having a difficult personality is not one of them

Gore, Violence and Blood under the cut

What a mess

#fop nature au #fairly oddparents #fop a new wish #fairly oddparents a new wish #fop #dale dimmadome #Flowers OC #candy gore #gore #blood #body horror #this really is a mess on so many levels #I wanted to make this situation as difficult as possible for the fairy council to theoretically clear up #everything from the animal to the location to the injury is a nightmare to try and explain #And theres a reason I spent so much time showing the gore getting on his injury. Mans gonna have a rainbow bitemark on his leg forever now #Not exactly easy to explain away #Also I think I accidentally established that Magic was a little toxic so he might have minor blood poisoning lol #Im sure he'll be fine #This is how all gay people are made but the fairies make you forget it #Actually while scripting this I realized how much this looked like the set up for some kind were-deer or were-fairy(??) plotline #which was not the intention but would be a hilarious direction to take the plot in LMAO #Also Id like to mention that flowers is fine. Fairies are functionally immortal aside from magic backup #Itll be healed up like nothing happened it no time #that being said it is still kinda pissed about the skull smashing #Dales got multiple broken ribs plush his leg is in shambled. Absolutely demolished #He's gonna have to get metal implants #You might think 'oh he's gonna opt to get a prosthetic leg now too'#No. Because hes a cowardly little bitch #He doesnt want to get his leg removed if its not absolutely necessary and because he's a nasty little hypocrite #Anyway this will be the start of a very nasty spiral methinks

Something I miss from earlier eras of the creative side of the internet was things just being unabashedly low-budget. Just all unashamedly amateur, unprofessional, ‘I don’t own a good camera but I have a story to tell you’, ‘I can’t afford a good mic but I have a song to sing for you,’ ‘I don’t have any kind of background in editing or lighting and I only just picked up this guitar last Tuesday but here’s an entire musical me and my friends wrote about our favourite book, we filmed it on a potato and put it up on YouTube in ten minute segments because we thought it was pretty funny.’

#everything felt so much less like Content then #and as someone who wants to share creative stuff online #it’s now incredibly daunting thinking about doing that bc #especially as a disabled person who can’t work full time #it feels almost impossible to extricate art from being Content #like there’s this immense pressure to produce things that could pass as professionally produced by a team of educated people #and to make smart decisions so that somehow eventually you can profit off your art #and instead of it being a ‘hey look at my silly little song’ it becomes #competing in an over saturated market already dominated by the nepotism afforded by wealth and connections #and it feels like it would very difficult not to measure my personal satisfaction with how a certain piece of art turned out #by how much attention it got online #even though I genuinely have zero desire to be famous and it sounds like a complete nightmare #anyway I’m gonna have ice cream for dinner how about you guys #hmp42

[ID in ALT] Steph and Damian doodle! This taps a bit into their pre-52 dynamic so that's what I was thinking design wise at first but I wanted to draw it w their more recent designs as well to stay hashtag current and topical, so you get both/a fusion, lol

#dc comics #dc #batfamily #damian wayne #stephanie brown #tims there too but he's not the focus so i won't clog his tag #for this to be completely in character Damian would have to be much more disinterested in what she's saying #or i mean ACT disinterested in what she's saying. he's very interested in violence done to tim. esp by his favorite weird big sister #THEY (tim n damian) DO NOT HATE EACH OTHER BTW. this is just the cain instinct at work. also admiration for unhinged steph #idk how much of pre-52 is in play rn visa vie steph (i know cass was still discovering her pre52 past in spirit world so...)#but for the sake of this lets say the brick meeting from detective comics og is still valid. bc i love it #steph violent eye-for-an-eye scrapper tendencies and tims insanity (HE'S STILL INTO HER AFTER THIS) on full display #i don't post a lot of dc fanart bc i find them exceedingly difficult to draw (DRAWING SUPERHEROES IS HARD WHEN UR BAD AT ANATOMY)#(ALSO THERE'S NO CONSISTENT FACIAL/HAIR/ETC DESIGN FOR ANYONE)#but i have done a lot of art and now I'm trying to make an effort to post a wee bit more #mine

the anon saying they wish vaschete were plushies inspired me

.

#oh no #oh #oh boy #they're adorable #I'm sorry but I'm just mentally smooshing their soft round little heads together #their expressions!#the teensy paws #really feeling that cute aggresion #you made their faces translate into simplified plush form so well #I'd be lying if I said it never crossed my mind how neat it would be to have plushies of them #not as merch but like to keep as mascots and have them sit contently next to each other in some nook of my home #I'm not completely hopeless at sewing but I've never designed patterns quite as complex as this #and I think commissioning a professional for a set is likely beyond my budget so eh one can dream #gift art #makedamnsvre #own characters #Machete #Vasco #from a technical point of view #I feel like I'd be adamant about keeping Vasco's ombre ears and muzzle but they could be potentially difficult to execute #unless you airbrushed them by hand or something I don't know how this works #and I'd probably be really picky about the texture of Machete's fluff as well #finding a faux fur with the right length curl and springiness might be hard #honestly I think I might have easier time if I tried art doll/ooak route because that permits more painting and sculpting than pure sewing #but then the squish factor would suffer

Thinking about Cas roped into a little kids teaparty while they're investigating a case and being firmly told he's a princess and a plastic crown slapped onto his head and Dean checks in on him saying "hey you wanna come to [next investigation scene]?" And all the kids go noooooo bc they love Cas bc he's Weird and very serious and patient with them about their games which is very funny to them and he pays focused attention which almost always makes kids happy.

And Cas, very solemn, goes "I'm a princess now Dean, I need to oversee my kingdom's affairs". And it becomes a comedy C plot of Cas n the kids fantasy game getting really politically detailed and fucked up while the boys do all the investigation work. Maybe there's some cut-betweens of the kids fantasy violence of smashing dolls together and Sam n Dean getting thrown around.

#the joke is how engaged he is in the game not that he's a princess #he's a princess bc he'd make a cute princess is all #i think cas IS good with kids but it's not quite in the way that's depicted in the show when he talks to that one little girl with Hannah #he's good with kids because he gives a lot of attention and would let them do whatever play they needed to and would stop them getting hurt #but would let them try difficult things rather thab do things for them #and he's remarkably patient unless it's with someone he already doesn't like
