reveal of my gordon hlvrai costume project, now that about half of it is done! this is cardstock and glue and tape and more glue and paint and velcro. and 2 gloves (one hand-sewn)
i got started sometime in early-mid fall, but i committed to making it work with cardstock in january- it was originally meant to be a sizing test before construction with eva foam over the summer. then i realized how expensive thatd be, too much pressure for a form of craft ive never practiced. im pretty amazed with how its come together, even with the large seams! during that whole time when it was unpainted (started painting two weeks ago) there was no way to tell
#thank you sketchfab thank you blender thank you pepakura#school library printer… you were necessary but i dont appreciate that i had to pay per page despite my tuition#i started this because theres a tradition of wearing whatever you want to graduation at my college. ive thought abt how cool itd be to wear#an hev suit like gordon hlvrai.. hlvrai has been important throughout my whole time at college. that plus the stem degree im going for makes#hlvrai the most fitting thing to homage with my outfit#*so important to me#the support of my friends was the last push i needed before research#i havent seen anyone else go for the in-game low poly look for the hev suit! multiple tutorials out there (as expected)#but all i saw involve eva foam and molding. most of them were based on the half life 2 suit which. yeah. that one seems more desirable for#cosplay#lucky that this way was much more simple because its also the most in-theme!#hlvrai#half life vr but the ai is self aware

btw if you borrow dvds or cds from library you can rip them onto your own blanks or onto your hard drive or whatever. librarians don’t care and they won’t know if you do it or not
#not pjo#chitter chatter#library tag#when I was training as a page one librarian was showing us the music section#and was like people come in and take out a bunch of cds and rip them onto their phones and return them the next day#it’s materials moving in and out baby that’s all that matters#get yourself a library card#(not all libraries have a music and dvd/bluray section but it’s worth checking!)#(and get a library card even if you don’t use it)#(but check out your local library to see what they do offer bc there’s lots of programs and other things too)#(not every public library is perfect but you can help influence it to make it the space you want)#100#1000

I accidentally got really into X-Men lately, and I'm not immune to... them. 🥺❤️
#x-men#xmen#rogue#gambit#remy lebeau#anna marie lebeau#romy#listen#all I was gonna do was watch x-men 97#but a couple of episodes in I realized I should probably rewatch the original animated series#because I hadn't seen it since I was a kid and I didn't remember much#(also let's face it - kid me was way too stupid to understand the plot anyway)#(I just watched it because I thought the x-men were cool)#and then after rewatching the original series + 97#I didn't know what else to watch so I just watched x-men evolution#and then I found a bunch of 500+ pages 'essential x-men' collections at the thrift store#and was like WELP MIGHT AS WELL GET THESE#and also why don't I check out what comics the local library has?#(turns out a decent amount)#ANYWAY#here I am#in x-men hell

one of the things that continues to strike me on reread is how much the character of Darcy, and Austen through him, finds Mr. Bennet dead. And how much Elizabeth, in growing and changing and discarding her past blindness, has to move past her way of seeing her father and thus of seeing reality, because the two are connected! Darcy’s letter exposes her father’s flaws to Elizabeth in a way she’d never been able to see before. Most especially the way his laziness and neglect of his own gifts have hurt his family and that ultimately he doesn’t. care. Not enough to change. It literally says that she comes home from Hunsford and tries to laugh at her sisters’ and mother’s folly (the way she used to; the way her father has taught her to by example for her whole life) and she can’t anymore! It sticks in her throat. She is grieved by the failures that she sees in him, all the more so because she IS his favorite and she loves him! And the thing about Mr. Bennet is he never changes. The Lydia/wickham situation exposes to him sharply his own conduct and the consequences and he feels it! Because he is neither stupid nor unfeeling. But he, like everyone, has free will. And he chooses not to change when the opportunity presents itself. He even jokes about how quickly his feeling bad will pass and how soon everything will go back to normal, to his laziness and his selfishness. He is set in his ways and he serves as a contrast to Elizabeth’s personal journey because he embodies a version of a person she could have become and was in danger of becoming if her only goal at all times was to laugh at and judge people from the sidelines.
#pride and prejudice#I’ve always loved his character because he IS funny and he is iconic!!! and his love for Lizzy is touching!#he’s not faking it.#but he is so flawed. a man of taste a man of ability a man of judgment.#a man who could and SHOULD have set a different tone for his children and chose not to!#and they SUFFER FOR IT#their house is a divided one. and every child feels the pain of living in a house where the parents neither respect each other#nor are on the same team#there is a crack running through their house for this reason and it’s how Lydia (and Kitty) came to be so neglected!#who is going to discipline them or guide them? certainly not Mr. Bennet!#he’s so important to teach too. because the boys LOVE HIM. of course!#and are always very struck by his failures and laziness once I point it out#and yeah Darcy one of the only people who can expose him. because Darcy is putting in the work a man should be doing#Darcy’s house IS in order. his love is active and protective. he is fulfilling his role!#Mr. Bennet’s gifts are so extraordinary—the wit. the insight into human nature. honestly the capacity for wisdom#but he likes his library. he likes enjoying himself more than he likes doing his duty#as either a father or a husband#he does fail Mrs. Bennet! I have compassion for her there#anyway I love to think about this: something no version I have ever seen has ever fully explored#but man is it on the page#yeah yeah sorry for all the words. teacher off duty etc.

Libraries are fantastic, but you have to understand: there is a tradeoff, which is: you don’t get to hang onto materials indefinitely.
You can’t yell at us because you’ve decided to use a library music score for 3 months and you have to at least bring it to the library before checking it out again. You can’t yell at us if you can’t renew it because someone else placed a hold so they can use it too. Don’t get snippy if you signed an agreement saying you understand you get this laptop for 4 weeks and then you have to return it.
Yes, libraries are fantastic, but things have to be accessible to everyone, not just you.
#you also have to return the materials in good condition#thinking of you asshole who did half-page dog-ears in like a full quarter of an entirely new book#there's normal wear and tear and then there's 'returned a dissertation with a ton of highlighting and margin notes'#:shocked pikachu face: 'why can't I check anything out???'#well u see you checked out a 3-hour item four weeks ago and haven't returned it. so. y'know.#tumblarians#working in a library#library life#text post

T-01-14-92: The Mountain of Fetid Dreams [Waw]
Humans dream endlessly. They dream of filling the world with filth. They want to choke the sky with smoke and cover the seas with oil.
Let's rejoice! Your dreams have come to pass! From me endless sewage, trash, and pollution will spew and lift you ever higher! This is what all humans wish for! I have seen it in their hearts...
For this is the price of the comfort they want, the progress they love, and the admiration they crave!
I will bear your burdens and fill the world with filth for you so you can finally fulfill your dreams.
#myart#art#lobotomy corp fanart#lobotomy corp#lobotomy corp oc#lobotomy corporation#back from the dead again#idk if people are interested but this guy and my other abnormality ocs have full encyclopedia pages and ego stats#library of ruina#oc#ocs#waw#abnormalities#abnormality#mountain of fetid dreams#limbus company#project moon

tbh i did think that reading the WoT books after watching the show would either a) make me like the show less because there are quite a few differences between the two or b) not care as much about the books because i'm already attached to the showverse but plot twist! i'm having a great time reading and love the show more than ever.
#read new spring last month and almost done with the eye of the world now#i committed enough that i've bought the next two books instead of getting them from the library#lmao this is the first time in like a year that ive read more than 300 pages of a book in a day. i feel like a kid again#i dont want to go to bed now :( i want to keep reading my fantasy book :(#anyways people who are impassioned about one being so much better than the other are lying. theyre both really good#the books just have the benefit of being 800+ pages and more freedom to have a bigger story#and the show has the benefit of not being from the 90s#wheel of time#my posts
