I can’t believe the future comes except as tragedy

Alice Notley, “Diversey Street” from Mysteries of Small Houses

[thelonguepuree]

First I'm fearful of what's called motherhood— I call it unpaid work like poetry—but a family is not a fate, it's that we're nakedly related our heirlooms are thought to be doomed psyches that's just one myth a psyche's not real a soul is, a grave child that peers from his first house.

Alice Notley, from “The Howling Saint T-Shirt,” Mysteries of Small Houses (1998)

How it feels to be into multiple fandoms (this isn't all of them)

[buddydolly]

I am dead fucking serious when I say I wish I saw more fat women in public. I want to see fat models. I want to see fat women in department stores getting absolutely HYPE when they find racks and racks of clothing in their size and sizes up, so they too can get the "oversized, baggy fit" like women who fit into smalls and mediums. I want to see fat women wearing crop tops proudly and rocking mad midriff. I want to see fat women trying on clothing for their friends and family and saying "look! it compliments my body shape! it's like it was made for me!" I want to see fat women with "cankles" wearing pretty jingling anklets skipping and jumping just to show them off. I want to see fat women on TV, in magazines, on billboards, in all manner of ads, and in online shop images because I want to see my fucking self and all the women I know who don't see enough of themselves. I want to see fat women living, loving, and being visibly proud of who they are because they are beautiful, WE are beautiful. I want to see fat women because fat women need to see other fat women.

It just occurred to me how influential Sooby-Doo was for me as a child

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if it's the main reason I enjoy most media I consume today

[fiomeras]

Its funny to me when people consider the hollowknight bugs as actually bug sized itsy bitsy as if there would be humans to compare them with in the world hollownest is in. I think if humans were to be introduced in the setting it would really destroy much of the games atmosphere... In my onion

[edwardian-girl-next-door]

Does anyone else consider certain tv shows as happening in the same universe? For instance, I always think that Grantchester and Endeavour occupy the same universe, with Granchester obviously coming a bit before in the 1950s. Or Father Brown (2013-) and Miss Marple (2004-2013) are both simultaneously snooping around solving mysteries in different parts of England. Agatha Christie's Poirot and The House of Eliot definitely share a timeline too.

Welcome to my Art Dumpster!

Hello world and all who inhabit it! My name is Mae 🧡I'm 28, she/her, and I try to keep myself sane by indulging in art, writing, and games! I used to upload art to my main blog, but I figured keeping things a little more organized this way would be better!

I do both fanart and OC work, but fanart usually takes priority! This blog is multifandom, and I do jump from fandoms pretty spontaneously. Unfortunately, I may not spend a lot of time in just one series or fandom, so just a heads up on that end!

The Amazing Mystery Of Mildenhall Manor!

On The Next Again, Finally, It's Coming Soon On An Whole New Episode Of "The Amazing Digital Circus"!

I Always Wanted A Big Halloween Event. And In The Next Month, We'll Got One. Because Episode 3 Is Coming Octopus Force. I Mean, October 4th, And Caine Finally Bringing, Ghastly Ghosts.

I Had The Dream About This Episode Month Ago.

The Dream Ended At The Haunted House Part, So I Didn't See What The Inside Of Haunted House Was Like, But Haunted House Was Very Similar To What I Had Seen In My Dream.

I Remember College-Shaped Oldish Hotel Seen In Dream. But Official Thing Is Dormitory-Shaped Oldish Mansion.

Any Way, I Found 3.3 Another-Advanced-Adventurous-Advantages In This Ghostrailer!

I Remember Episode Title In My Dream Was "Martha's Maid Mayhem!". Or "Adventures In Ghosty-Sitting!" Or "Haunted House Halls!" Or "Phantom Praise Pandemonium!". But Now, Official Title Is Selected By Glitchworx Productions. It's "The Mystery Of Mildenhall Manor!" Well, It's Right That It Rhymed With The Letter M. M's Stand For Mind! And C's Stand For Crazy Or Candy.

Of Course, The Fact That There Are Many Goofy Characters Cannot Be Ignored. There's Martha Mildenhall And Her Small Ghost. Who In Main NPC Of The Adventure. They Lives In The Haunted House, And That Haunted House Is Ghost's Place, And Monsterous Things I Think. Because Pomni Meets A Monster. (0:16)

Also, In This Ghostrailer, Jax Has A Very, Very Evil Expression On His Face As He Holds Up A Scrap-Metalical Vacuum Cleaner, With Finally, Kinger's ShotGun Affeared! Vacuum Cleaner...So It Means, There Will Be A Parody With Tragedy Of "Luigi's Mansion" Included?

And Speaking Of "Luigi's Mansion", "Luigi's Mansion 2 High Definition(HD)" Comes To Disengaged Mind. I'm Not Very Famillion With "Razzle-Dazzle-Puzzles-&-Battles", So I Took Over Of 3 Months Playing On This, For Real.

3.1. The Mystery Of Mildenhall Manor......Manor? As Expected, I Was Correct. Someone Owns This Mansion, And I Believe Owner Is Martha. And Mansion Is Make Some Manner!

3.2. Also Again, There's A Scene Where Zooble Is Havin' A Conversation With Caine Somewhere. Zooble Understands This As Theraphy, But Given The Circustances, It Seems Like Caine Is Interrogating Zooble For Deciding To Remain In The Circus. And It Makes The Amazing Digital Zooblore.

3.3. Eh, In This Trailer, Le 4:3 Aspectio And Slightly Outdated Quality Co-Exist, Which Definitely Doesn't Fit That Needlessly Convincing "Theory".

Unlike The Trailer For Episode 2, This One Has A Lot Of Hintness Parts, So I Thought-A-Lots About It For A While Before Writing This Post. So, If It Doesn't Look Like "Another-Advanced-Adventurous-Advantages". I Forgive Myself.

Gooseworx Said That We Are Lookin' Forward To See-In' Jax In A Maid Dress In Episode 3. So Storyline Will Be Exciting As A Mission.

See You Next Month, Again!

P.S. https://www.glitchprod.com/thewackywatch

P.S. I'm Don't Like Horrorous Things. But Gooseworx Said It's Just Not As Dark As People Seem To Think It Will Be.

erase all that it’s not right. You have to erase whatever it is and erase before that and before that to be perfect

Alice Notley, “Would Want to Be in My Wildlife” from Mysteries of Small Houses

My media this week (7-13 Jan 2024)

the addition of this disaster boy was delightful

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

🥰 Second First Chances (Kedreeva) - 92K, steddie, canon-divergent Ladyhawke AU. Very well-written, exactly what it says on the tin. Very enjoyable.

😊 Murray Mysteries (Knöves Storytelling) - "full-cast audio-drama style re-imagining of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, set in the present day. Mina Murray is an unemployed twenty-something, jigsaw puzzler, and brand new Podcaster. Her life doesn’t exactly make for interesting content. That is until her best friend Lucy falls mysteriously ill and Mina’s boyfriend Jonathan loses contact on a work trip to Romania…" Very creative, very queer, very enjoyable!

🥰 ship-to-ship combat (pomeloquat) - 76K, SuperBat - "Clark, in an attempt to make some spare cash, unintentionally stumbles into the world of superhero fanfiction, becomes a prolific writer for Gotham's OTP, and tries his best to fend off rival fans who want him to convert to superbat instead." - extremely funny and delightful identity porn fic

🥰 Tension and Tonic (Zenaidamacrouras1) - 78K, cellist!Bucky/artist!Steve, one night stand that develops feelings. Mostly hilarious, with some fantastic characterizations, especially of the supporting characters. Fic does go to some pretty dark thoughts very briefly but ultimately the vibe I ended up with was much more on the funny side of the scale.

💖💖 +41K of shorter fic so shout out to these I really loved 💖💖

A Letter from "Crawly" to Azirapil (mostlydeadlanguages) - Good Omens: Aziraphale & Crowley, 486 words - actual cuneiform on actual clay tablets, 'translated'. Our boy Ea-Nasir gets a shoutout. Fan makers are amazing.

veracity (pomeloquat) - DCU: SuperBat, 3K - a group of Metropolis criminals give Batman some truth serum to find out how to deal with Superman & get more than they bargained for. Absolute hilarity. Fantastic related art.

idk if there's anything in stories i get more petty about than poorly-written "main character shows up to a new place and meets everyone" character introduction scenes

You know how I said in my last post that that’d be the last listing for awhile😅? Clearly I was bluffing, because I’ve added another! Please check this out guys and share it around with others! I’m so thankful for you all💖! I honestly adore how these all turned out!

[jejciu]

Writing about vampires or any other supernatural human-like predators is fun bc of how the cravings for the blood and the meat and guts and whatnot is so like.... erotic or whatever. It's cliche but it's so fun.
