Becoming Tree Wise
So here’s the deal. A friend and I were supposed to lead a tree workshop today, but the weather didn’t cooperate. I’m not complaining about the few inches of snow–it’s the sleet that came first and the rain that is now eating up some of the snow that bothers me. That said, I’m going to take you on a deep dive to meet some of the trees of Maine in their winter format. We are so fortunate to live…

Halfway through The Priory of the Orange Tree and the funniest thing about the queerness of the book is that the world is generally not homophobic except for one person who needs to be straight in order for her religion to work, and folks you’ll never guess who’s gay.
#the priory of the orange tree#tpotot#it’s a good snapshot lesson on how to make your setting interesting

On my knees begging for anything trans!Obi-Wan :') love your work btw

your wish is my comand lovely anon, here's obi-wan having a nice peaceful moment training
#art requests#i got perhaps a little carried away i cant lie buuuuut im very happy with this#first thing ive really drawn in like 6 months#i came up with a silly over complicated lore for the tree in the background because .. well you gotta think about something when you draw#its a short lived species that picks a direction and grows in it until it falls over and dies and lots of smaller ones grow up in its place#and yoda plants them around the creche / training areas/ gardens / wherever and they act as a lesson in attachemnt for younglings :)#like yes this tree thats been around all your life (10 years or less) is dead but look it dying has made new trees and new opportunities#and maybe sometimes he gifts them to younglings he likes or ones he thinks could use the reminder sometimes that things ending isnt the end#new stuff happens after everything continues its all fine#anakin definitely recieved one or ten#probably was still recieving them into knighthood because yoda is a troll#he doesnt know theyre supposed to collapse and die though he just thinks hes really bad at looking after plants#anyways#yep#done with that#my art <3#cal draws#obiwan kenobi#trans obi wan#trans obi wan kenobi#trans! obiwan#star wars#star wars fanart#fanart

I'm not getting into The Giving Tree discourse...
#personal#delete later#idk i just saw a post of the “alternate ending” comic on my dash and everyone praising it as an improvement and “fixing” the original#which i kinda resent#while tulli and i was taking my nephew to a book store we walked around the kids section and found the giving tree and we read through it#and i was so stricken by how profoundly sad it is. it's not a happy story#in the end both versions tell the exact same lesson. but one flat out tells you and the other makes you sit with a pit in your stomach#and work to find the answer#i dunno it's kids literature but kids literature is important. i don't wanna discredit anyone's bad memories with the book but also i think#sometimes it's ok to make kids a bit sad and upset with fiction.#tweet that goes “what if romeo and juliet didn't kill themselves and explained to the audience that family feuds are bad”#idk you can't seriously read the original book as an adult and say it's glorifying self-martyrdom#when the final drawing of the book is of an old tired man sitting on arotting stump with his hat fallen to the ground#again i don't wanna invalidate people's feelings if they enjoy the alt version i think it's really nice too. but the original has its#purpose too. imagine if at the end of the lorax they show that the boy did it and replanted the world happy ending#wait they did that in the movie shit#i dunno i just love somber children's literature. tulli and i are talking about moomin right now and how the series ends with the moomin#family just leaving. and nobody gets to say goodbye to them. their friends have to find ways to live with the emptiness they've left behin

Trees whisper timeless truths~
to stand firm with grounded roots, to reach ever upward in quiet growth, and to let go with grace when the season calls for it.

One day it will all be worth it <3

Nights like this can be so draining and tiring but posting stuff like this remotivates me to keep going. Struggling so hard to not be distracted but it will work out…

@eallyrayadbay look below deck.
Happy birthday, mentalist.
#i figured you would like something of sentimental value rather than something practical#because you know I'd make anything you need for you anyway.#and i know people will harass me until they find out what it is so here:#a bouquet of synthetic flowers with viscose petals which i was able to make with tree pulp and some of Sulfurina's cousins#and also some crafting lessons from Yuzuriha from a while ago#irises for affection#yellow lilies for gratitude#violets for reassurance#black nightshade because it's his favorite#white chrysanthemum for truth#and of course red chrysanthemum but only because they look nice yk#i dont know a lot of flower symbolism but these are the ones i remember#oh and of course the cola#i couldnt possibly one-up the observatory though#dr stone rp#rp blog#dr stone#senku ishigami#dr. stone

The Present 🧡 Chestnut Ridge






Prev // Next
Transcript below the cut:
Danny: Papa? Joseph: Hm? Danny: Do I have a grandma or grandpa?
Joseph: Uh, well, you do, that would be my parents, but they died before you were born. Danny: Oh. What were their names? Joseph: My dad was Luis, and my mom was Adriana. Danny: Did my mom have parents? Joseph: Of course. Unfortunately, I never met ‘em, so I don’t know anything about ‘em.
Joseph: What’s with all the questions today, anyway? Danny: We were supposed to do a family tree in class, but I couldn’t finish mine. Joseph: Your teacher won’t give you a low score for it, will she? Danny: No, she said it was okay, but that I should ask you.
Danny: So, is anyone in our family alive? Joseph: I have a brother, so he would be your uncle. He’s alive, he just lives far away. Danny: What’s his name? Joseph: Julian.
Danny: Does Julian have any kids? Joseph: No, no kids. Danny: Hm. I wish I had a brother. Joseph: …
Danny: Then I’d have someone to play with and we could— Joseph: Hey, Danny, how ‘bout you go feed Daisy and get washed up for supper while I finish up out here, okay? Danny: Okay.
#full disclosure#i totally got the family tree idea from lessons in chemistry#i had this topic coming up a different way but i didn't like it#then i was watching that show and it was too perfect#so i incorporated the same idea here#also that show made me sob so hard#i still haven't fully recovered#enjoyed it otherwise tho#oh also also that second to last shot#the way all the animals are looking at danny#if all goes according to plan then that's a bit of foreshadowing#ts4#ts4 simblr#ts4 story#sims 4#sims 4 storytelling#sims 4 challenge#starsignchallenge#starsignlegacychallenge#gen1 aries#aries pt4#present#joseph vega#daniel vega#daisy#coffee#chester#goober#lucky#yes i'm tagging the goats

AVA Secret Gift Exchange!!
Hi @compressedrage , I was your secret gifter >:] I picked your prompt of Chosen and Dark experiencing seasons for the first time. SUPER fun concept and i enjoyed drawing it I unfortunately didnt manage to finish all the pieces before you dropped out <<; very sorry My plan was to create four pieces of art, one for each season. Winter was the one i had most finished
I was actually working on it when i received word youd dropped out LMAO Only other season i have thats even kinda drawn is Summer
Its Chosen and Dark on the couch together. Dark is complaining and miserable because it is TOO HOT and Chosen is icing the couch for him
Autumn was going to be Chosen and Dark walking through a park i think?? Chosen was gonna be eating a leaf (or about to, it featured his pacman mouth) Spring was the one i had the least ideas for, i think chosen was going to be face down napping in the grass and dark was watching a spider build its web I am So Sorry half the gift is missing, turns out hand drawing trees and snow onto those trees is. rather time consuming /lh Still!! I hope you like it
@avagiftexchange thanks for letting me participate :D
#AvA Gift Exchange 2024#ava chosen#ava dark#ava the chosen one#ava the dark lord#my art#an gift#i hand drew every glob of snow on those trees btw#every shadow on them too#no copy and pasting#no fancy snow brush#i should not have done that. it took. so long#i will not learn my lesson#alan becker
