Happy Halloween! I've been reflecting a lot on fat representation in media and how still very little meets the bar set for me by reading Discworld at a fairly young age. And also on what kind of Actual Adult Woman I want to be. And really if I could just internalize the entire coven I think I would be pretty satisfied with my life.
And I sewed a witch hat!
My cat is exactly as enthusiastic about pictures as I would expect Greebo to be.
("Tarrie, why didn't you pick Agnes? She's closer to your age and still your size!" Because Agnes wouldn't have given me an excuse to wear a hedgehog on my head, obviously.)
i wanna post my skip to loafer art but i cant do it knowing ppl are gonna put it on tiktok and pinterest bc itd be like. bringing an invasive species ykwim
watching the flashback scenes in redding weddy caressing my screen while a single silent tear falls, like a mourning army wife in the 40s with a locket. which is appropriate given the subject matter.
hi!! im so happy we could find an endogenic-friendly graphics blog, thats so cool.
is it okay if you could make/suggest pluralkit banners for these pfps that match the color palettes? i think our spy part is a little bummed we cant find a serious banner for him unlike the others, and though i know fritz/medic loves his joke banner, our system is really big on proper and simple organization. thanks in advance, its so cool youre giving to the community for free. we appreciate your gifts, soldier. 🫡
by the way, these artists are virtualmish (for medic fanart) and medicsmalewife (for spy fanart)! they both have pages on tumblr. and yes we credit our artists (we dont use icons unless we can find who made them. yay)
HI!! well i am so happy to find YOU, dear asker, in my inbox! to be honest i made this blog and i was sitting there like 'ehhh there's probably so many graphics blogs out thereee is this going to be pointlesssss' but it turns out you're absolutely right there is a sore lack of endo-friendly ones out there! ridiculous, really. oh well. more clientele for me :3c /silly
i just want to say having dwelled in the depths of image finding sites all day i am very much with your spy part on here: its SO hard finding something that matches those colours? i have the goods, of course, but they might still look a little off. just presume that a lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into editing these headers 😭
here's your hard fought-for spy banner (i do apologise if it still doesn't fit! you may need someone stronger than me- or, at least, a little tweaking, but i tried my very best)
i've had "remove that mistletoe from that tree" on my mental list for at least a couple years if not longer but it's way up in the tree
mistletoe is parasitic - birds eat the seeds, fly to another tree, crap on a branch, seed sprouts and grows roots into the tree. eventually if there's enough in the tree the tree will fail...
the problem here is that the mistletoe was about 32' up and my pole saw with all four sections together is about 25' - and you can't cut from right under a branch because the saw only works when gravity pulls the teeth into the wood as you draw it and back forth.
either i was going to climb into the tree (not a popular idea around here) or i needed a boost
so i put the forks on the tractor and put an empty firewood tote on it (strapped on nice and snug), climbed in and got to work. with being about twelve feet from the tree, i had a couple feet height gain already for being uphill from it, plus the tote was raised another six feet
as you can see despite mid-40s temperature it rapidly felt warm... probably took 15-20 minutes as i can't get a good stroke going with four segments of the saw together since it's really bouncy and often jumps out of the kerf (cutting notch in the wood).
