Modern GOTY as realistic people
So last night while I was researching the pets, I noticed something when i was looking for blaire’s pig. As you all know, In 2018, american girl switched art styles completely for the GOTY line from a hyper-realistic style that gives us a very good idea of them in real life, to a very cartoony look that left me wondering and wanting. 
But what I did find, is that in the catalouge and website pictures for Blaire, there were many pictures of a red haired girl re-enacting scenes from the book with her doll. I did some poking around and found that they did this for luciana, joss, and Kira too (they also did it for a few years before that too, but the models they chose looked almost identical to the illustrations, leading me to believe that these are what american girl is trying to tell us they look like in a realistic style now as well.)
They had a couple different models for Luciana, but this girl appeared the most.

This was the only girl used for Blaire

With Joss, again they used a couple different girls, but this is the one who appeared the most
Tumblr media
and Finally, this is the only realistic kira picture Ive found so far.
Tumblr media
So there you have it! I always wondered what these new catoony girls would look like in the old realistic style and now I have somewhat of an idea!

This is so cute! At first I was confused because I thought the dolls actually represented the Disney characters and then I realized it was actually the theme of the dolls clothes!
Full Disney ILY line!

a work in progress! 
I’ve been wanting to draw the pigeons in my neighbourhood for a while. the colours of their flock have shifted a bit over the years - a ton used to have pure white heads, probably due to an escaped purebred who sired a bunch of kids but now I’m seeing less of those, and more white flight feathers.

hello! do you have the repro pattern of Addy’s meet dress for sale/share? I would love to use it if you do
/enby-dollhouse
Hi, @enby-dollhouse! It took me a minute to proof the pattern pieces and scan them in, but here it is to share. :)
Note: the placket, then collar should be put on last. You can omit the facing pieces if preferred.
Here is what it looks like when sewn up.

Also the look can be changed up by using different skirts, skipping the collar or placket, shortening the sleeves, or adding in gathers at the bodice front. I included a couple of skirt patterns as well. Feel free to alter or use the pattern as is.
I also put the links in my pinned post. Happy sewing!!

I do not know if anyone would be interested but I have a friend living in Scotland area for a year right now. If you are interested in paying US shipping( she has this thing where I can ship items to her as if she was still in the US) plus shipping from Scotland to where you live shipping plus cost of what you want, I could ask them if they would be willing to receive and re-ship to you. I have no clue how much shipping would be from their end to your final destination but I just thought I would ask if anyone is interested. I do not know it they would be ok with it but they might be.

i know this is just one post on tumblr but i am BEGGING people who can to be loud about strange world.
it is so fucking unfair for disney to not properly promote this movie at all and for it to bomb so badly in theaters like it’s doing just because it actually had genuinely good poc and queer rep! i am SEETHING about how they intentionally set it up to fail and i can’t imagine how the people who worked on the movie feel!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
please be loud about it! please go see it if you can, tell your friends to see it, post about it on social media, get it trending, get as many people to see it as possible!
let the idiots at the top know we WANT better representation in movies!

“The remains of three Paleolithic dogs, including one with a mammoth bone in its mouth, have been unearthed at Predmosti in the Czech Republic, according to a new Journal of Archaeological Science paper.
The remains indicate what life was like for these prehistoric dogs in this region, and how humans viewed canines. The dogs appear to have often sunk their teeth into meaty mammoth bones. These weren’t just mammoth in terms of size, but came from actual mammoths.
In the case of the dog found with the bone in its mouth, the researchers believe a human inserted it there after death.”
Do you guys even know what this means… It means that someone cared enough about this dog, and knew it’s love for mammoth bones, that upon the dogs death, the human placed a bone in the canines mouth because they wanted it to take the bone with them in the afterlife. I love knowing that humans have always been like this because I’ve been burying stuffed animals with my passed pets since I was a kid

SO YOU WANT TO HELP THE RAILWAY WORKERS: A CHECKLIST
If you don't know what I'm talking about, here's a news article.
This is a shitty, shitty situation, and unfortunately we're in a position where all we can do is make it less shitty. BUT. WE HAVE THE POWER TO DO THAT.
Grab that phone and your unlimited data plan, because we're about to flood some phone lines, babes. Start by texting "Sign PZPAKG" to 50409 to sign the action letter written by Resistbot. Once you've done that, reblog this post (if I see more likes than reblogs on this post I'm gonna shit lead) because there are links in here and Tumblr search will eat it, and this will only work if we get a ton of eyeballs on it.
First, you'll want this link, which lists all 100 State Senators. (If you live in Massachussetts or Rhode Island, skip down to "Ready to do more?" Don't call your Senators yet.) Yes, I'm aware this webpage looks like it was made in 2006, I'm extremely sorry (your tax dollars at work), but you do what you gotta. You're going to start by looking up the Senators from your state. This site will direct you to their official webpages. Look for "locations," not "contact," because most of them use email contact forms as a first line of contact these days. You want phone numbers. You should find at least two--one in Washington, DC and one in your state's capitol. (Some may have more than one in-state. I know here in AZ Kelly and Sinema have both a Phoenix and Tucscon office, and Kelly also has one on the Navajo Nation.)
Pick one, it doesn't matter which. Call it. You may get either a staffer or a voicemail. (If it's voicemail, listen carefully to the prompts. If it says voicemail is full, go back and try the other phone number.) Staffers are pretty friendly, but can occasionally seem a little disconnected or brusque. If that's the case, it is not you--your call's probably been routed through a switchboard and they're experiencing lag. Don't worry about it, just say your bit.
HERE IS THE SCRIPT I USED THIS MORNING: "My name is [legal name] and I'm a constituent of Senator [name]'s from [my town]. I'm calling in support of the railway unions in light of this frankly extremely bad deal they're being asked to accept. If railway workers are so important to our economy that Congress can get involved, then they're important enough to deserve paid sick time. I'd like to encourage the Senator to vote NO on any bill that doesn't provide railway union workers with at least seven days of paid sick time."
Total time elapsed for me doing this: about five minutes.
OKAY. READY TO DO MORE? Some Senators have already signed an open letter saying they're in support of providing sick time to railway union members. Those Senators are Bernie Sanders from Vermont, Kirsten Gillibrand from New York, Tammy Baldwin from Wisconsin, Cory Booker from New Jersey, Sherrod Brown from Ohio, Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts, Jeff Merkley from Oregon, Alex Padilla from Callifornia, and Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse from Rhode Island. Give them a call next. HERE'S THE SCRIPT I'VE BEEN USING: "My name is [legal name]. I'm actually an Arizona resident, but I wanted to thank Senator [name] for supporting sick time for railway union members. I was really disappointed to hear President Biden basically decided to get involved in union-busting and I'm glad to hear the Senator is on labor's side. Please encourage them to stay the course and get that sick leave pushed through." If you're from Massachusetts or Rhode Island, feel free to say something about how you're glad your state is standing up for labor when you're calling your own Senators on that list. You can say that to any Senator on this list if they happen to be yours, obviously, it's just definitely got even more of an impact if you're already a constituent.
OKAY. WANT TO KEEP GOING?
I've got one more assignment for you. This is the list of committee members for the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. There are ten of them and some of them overlap with phone calls you've already made, so you're almost done. If you look at the script below and then look at the committee members and go "you think Republicans give a shit about this?," I am begging you to at least call Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney. Yes, the majority of the Republican Party is a nuclear trashfire. Yes, they're Republicans. But if you said "Nina, you have to go to dinner with six Senate members and three of them have to be Republicans," my picks would be Murkowski, Romney, and Liz Cheney. We might actually be able to make a dent in Murkowski and Romney if we try hard enough, and yes, "try" is important here. Fuck Yoda and his do-or-do-not bullshit, if activists in this country only went for sure things we'd still have chattel slavery and no votes for women. YOU GOTTA GET UP AND TRY.
SO HERE'S YOUR SCRIPT FOR THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS.
"My name is [name]. I'm calling because Senator [name] is a member of the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. I'd like to encourage him/her as a Committee member to lead by example in this current situation with the railway unions, and vote NO on any bill that does not provide railway workers with at least seven days of paid sick leave. I'm sure Senator [name]'s position on this committee has given them plenty of examples to know a healthy and organized labor force is far better for our economy than a sick and demoralized one."
GO BLOW UP THE PHONE LINES LIKE YOU'RE GUY FAWKES UNDER PARLIAMENT. The railway workers have had our backs all through Covid. It's high time we had theirs.

I live near a Costco. If anyone wants something, I can get it for you for the price of item($129 plus tax for the back to school/ soccer) plus price of shipping. Nothing else. But I admit they are going fast. There was a few tea party kits and a Willie wisher too but like I said it is going super fast. I was tempted to get the Sonali face mold doll lol.
