Actually i need to append this because my beloved followers need to appreciate that i manually aligned/size-matched/jpeg-artifacted the text to match the original. due to my agonies. and also due to my dedication to giving fiddleford fun clothes

concept that i rotate in my mind every couple of weeks. their sex life is this post, to me

cohost crosspost

hey every. i've been pondering the state of this website for the past couple of weeks, and i think that while i will tentatively continue to post art here when i do it (← operative phrase), i will also be crossposting on my cohost. I may also make some cohost-only posts for "their content warning system is better than tumblr's and i want to draw gay old men having sex" reasons; we'll see where the wind blows. Well that's all for now thanks

#nothing on there as of yet though because i will actually die if i try to reupload a full decade's worth of posts lol

got shifty on da brain tonight (first comic inspired by this post)

#gravity falls #ford pines #stanford pines #fiddleford mcgucket #shifty #i know canonically they were wearing masks around him or w/e but i live in the beautiful world where shifty was just ford's weird ouppy #or alternatively his weird son. i'm torn because i'm so 🤔 about shifty copying ford's avuncular mannerisms but also #i talk to my cats like human children all the time. i perhaps think about this way too much

@tazmiilly and i talked for no fewer than six hours today about parallel ford and his mobility aids. here's some of what i came up with

you can barely see it but credit to @badwaves for the institute logo (link to a drawing he did with it)

image IDs are in alt text; design notes below the cut

Image ID: a screenshot of writing on a digital whiteboard. the text reads as follows:

wheelchairs - 2

foldable chair - easily transportable - designed for manoeuverability in high traffic/urban areas - mostly used at the end of a long day

motorized chair - for long treks/field missions - ridged metal frame - designed for rough terrain - souped up by fiddleford

two or three canes

fancy cane for formal events (mostly for fashion)

everyday cane (sturdy, classy)

field cane (collapsible, has a concealed weapon)

mabel puts stickers on all of them

end image ID.

#SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP #you guys are so real for this one...what a great thing to be tagged in. i need some mabel stickers for my cane ASAP #gravity falls #not my art #(also you are very sweet to credit me for the logo but it's really just a slightly fancier version of the one we see in journal 3 LOL)

so delighted to see so many of my fellow seizureheads in the notes + special shout out to my PNES/FND comrades. may we all continue to project onto our favorite characters in the new year

based on true events because i've been thinking about ford having a seizure disorder since 2016 and still yearn for fanwork where his relationship to said seizure disorder is as stupid and slapstick as my own. Hugs and kisses to all my friends who have hurled me into bed like a javelin over the years

#take care of yourselves but also i know it can be really hard to take care of yourself sometimes. doesn't make you any lesser

extremely well-timed revival of my ancient AU because i'm replaying psychonauts 2 and working on an overhaul

okay listen i’ve been sitting on ideas for a psychonauts AU since early summer and i have to put them somewhere before i explode. here’s a mostly-coherent google doc outlining my Concept

(as an aside, i will admit that this got off the ground entirely because i’m delighted by the fact that if i list the following character traits:

is a mysterious, turtleneck-wearing scientist

has an underground lab and a machine that allows you to examine your own thoughts

projects onto and is idolized by an enthusiastic preteen

gets captured by the antagonist and put out of commission at a pivotal point in the story

you have no way of knowing if i’m talking about stanford pines or sasha nein)

#gravity falls #psychonauts #i forgot how hard i went with the true psychic tales cover also. still proud of that one

what does ford know anyway. all he's got is an honorary PhD from that two-bit anti-torture college

(dialogue is of course from this classic dril tweet, which will live in my brain forever)

#gravity falls #bill cipher #ford pines #stanford pines #my hands are too shaky to draw consistent straight lines which is why bill's true evil was losing his squash and stretch between seasons

well now i want to know your picks for the top 10 pjackk posts to read in jk simmons' voice.

the trick is that most pjackk posts are actually stanley posts so this is a very complicated process. with that said:

10. Felt heavy radiation close to gas station turkey sub at 0300 hours today

9. THE little squirt working the gas station said they arent doing the sweetwater IPPA 2 for $4 deal no more and yet the tags... are still there. Stop trying make me go crazy, okay ? (note: this is also a stan post. but it is also also a "ford having a paranoid episode trying to buy beer" post)

8. Wtf is the point of the tutty fruitty flavor when it just tastes like bubble gum wich btw there is already a fucking bibble gum flavored jellie bellie for your information i think the giys making these must be kind of fuckinf stupid from time to time

7. Shooting laser pointer in my eye is giving me steange sensation. Cant tell if good or bad. Who has info or data on this phanamena

6. My fucking puppy* just killed an elf

*shapeshifter

5. Did i just see a mutant malard with a green jead?or am i seeing thigns again

4. Ive circled the anomalieys....
