I feel like barnabys favorite drink (alcoholic) might be a old fashioned? And non alcoholic mixed drink. Might be a Shirley temple. (Which Is my favorite non alcoholic mixed drink!)

(Of course this is all my opinion! But yea!

he Does feel like a classy guy, huh? but who's to say! Who's. To. Say...

#ohhhh dont say shirley temple thats one of my favs as well.... #dont put that thought in my head... #oh what i wouldnt do for one rn. its been so long </3 #catch me going to the bar and getting one of those instead of Anything else #rambles from the bog #but yeah. who knows maybe he'd enjoy just plain whiskey #a nice Quality bourbon perhaps... #we're probably way off the mark here! #no wait he seems to have a sweet tooth given his hotdog order... as well as a lack of tastebuds... #idk. you know that guy who makes hellish alcohol concoctions in bathtubs. bathtub jungle juice #maybe barn would enjoy That. absolutely absurd concept.... #but as always! what do i know! #lmfao im picturing him swirling whipped cream on whiskey aaslcnjalscnslkd + a cherry.... maybe some sprinkles.... #actually that doesnt sound too bad. hm. #we Do have whiskey i think... maybe ill have some fun tomorrow #nah actually im not a big fan of straight whiskey #im more of a rum guy... maybe ill do that to some Rum...

reread the rest thus far of lackadaisy and there's the both v easy & difficult task of gathering a shit ton but only a shit ton of excerpts (like every single page is a highlight i'm not exaggerating)

and every single element is superlative and the way it all only becomes More So....already mentioned the way the like smooth gradient shading made the successful evocation of 3D Shapes more noticeable, along w/the consistent geometries of character design & details in fabric folds; the way Lighting & Coloring only goes on to become more prominent elements only enhances that further. the compositions, backgrounds, pacing, angles....everything is so dynamic & expressive, such as including the expressions which you know i also Love / absorbed

going "hell yes for people to discover this superlative comic" then having to occasionally refresh past site traffic overloaded server errors like "nooo" but actually yes

whilest clapping & cheering for the fun of everyone who's been here a minute. My God the invigorating reward when again i started reading in '07 & the concept of rocky & freckle on a "proper" run had only manifested via fun official bonus art, then a literal decade later as it was actually happening in the comic like screeeeaammm i can feel it coming in the air tonight oh lord etc....i've loved following it, again, if i see another new comic page. i am going to be Enriched

i also really was right on the ball myself this time around like okay okay yep i have picked up on Everything, at least to the degree i can lmao. i love the mysteries. i love how Character Focused it is too ofc and there's no characters i'm uniterested in / dislike. you gotta point to one of them, truly, and i have been a [pointing at freckle] enjoyer these fifteen years but fr i am a connoisseur of everyone, i love that so many characters are a weird mysterious chaos element story driver in their own right. i considered mordecai more intently than ever, love his like ultra mystery (and that we leave off on him doing some detectiving even) and truly fun that like, the source of the more Immediate problems he keeps having in every damn interaction isn't the like [wow mordecai with the just diving into the hatchet murdering] factor so much as it's that he's generally like "i am just standing here" and is not nt in any way that matters and people insist on fucking with him on that front. the peak tragedy of him in a bonus comic getting bullied into having to dance with someone to Be Polite like i'm so sorry i wish you could be that ficus too. anyways intrigued with the marigold &/or mordecai mysteries including that it's like, how coincidental is it that he talks about marigold having a thorn in its side & the savoys' nickname for him is peekon = thorn. there is so much to consider, love that for us truly. and i'm rooting for mordecai & nicodeme's dynamic out here, is another conclusion....very enriched by comparing & contrasting that serafine nicodeme mordecai triumvirate with the rocky ivy freckle one, to be sure. im enriched

i'm also enriched by every footnote that's got like historical facts / research notes / [this is inaccurate for xyz prioritization but here's the disclaimer] explanations. i Love information. and everything else like i loooove this comic it's Soooo Fucking putting my hands to my temples and inhaling at length through my teeth

#first time i've really taken tumblr up on that new thirty image limit expansion; bit of a surprise maybe lol #put your back into autism acceptance month &/or press j; scroll fast; read through it actually; filter the following: #long post // #learning abt the overwhelming popularity of baby ruth candy bars from lackadaisy footnotes? relevant to gtm:pota aficionadoship at one pt #remember discussing what i learned from another footnote abt some christian denominations / other religions being very Anti Prohibition #every time i use the word cagey i think of lackadaisy. cagey thing... we've all been there #fantastic time revisiting and i love to be considering all these characters all the further / with reckless juxtaposition #especially the two triumvirates as mentioned. rooting for them all #rooting for mordecai to be relieved of that v realistic [ppl sensing a Mess With His he is not nt in any way that mattersness Free For All] #either let him be or start shooting at him lmfao. but i Love that the gang had that pleasant nonbrunch together & no shots exchanged yet #more brunches! and i think nicodeme could be mordecai's bestie or w/e he wants. turn out to be Supportive in any way that matters #they are more so the ivy and freckle of their group after all lol. slightly would-be Unlikely coupling there as well anyways; and yet! #i am as enriched and intrigued and appreciative and etc as ever #and reminded that in my rereading i haven't yet gone over all the bonus material lol.... #also stumbled across that sungwon cho had fandubs of lackadaisy comics posted like 9 yrs back?? #which means i probably saw one or two; think i remember one being shared and checking that out #like hey didn't know i'd encountered you before like; vines & oh the lamps are fucking & etc. and now there he goes voicing mordecai yaay #lackadaisy

my 2023 year in review:

published the most recent update for tnp in january

started work on hh originally in twine back in march

wrote and published one day hike in april

wrote and published faith in june for neo-twiny jam

refined hh as a novel instead and wrote the first draft between may-august

wrote and published siren's call in september

also started working on blood choke in may and published the prologue & ch1-2 in july, then ch3 in november

i started a few things that i haven't finished but will hopefully finish this year... bleeding heart will definitely be published within the next month for vampjamp.

i guess my hopes for this year will be:

finish bleeding heart in time for vampjamp (this will definitely happen)

finish the blackwater route for tnp and finally move on to ch3

ch4 of blood choke

workshop hell or highwater & decide what direction i want to take it in

start second draft of hh

#i did write a lot this year i guess. lol #just not for any of the projects i should have (tnp) #i cant really say im that proud of anything that i published tho #one day hike was cathartic and felt like the best thing i'd ever written at the time #but really i think it's just cus i actually finished something for once lmfao #i havent reread it and probably won't #i rushed siren's call and also havent reread it since september #i do like what ive done with blood choke. but im disappointed how much i dropped productivity on it after november #tnp took me at least 2 yrs before i started writing this slow #its frustrating how fast it happened with blood choke... #and even more frustrating bc im so excited for what i have planned. i want to be more proud of it #oh well. the time will pass anyways as they say #i really wish i had an office or desk to write at. i feel like i would be so much more motivated & productive #and also if i didnt work my shitty soul-sucking retail job but. lol

going to be singing in our school's talent showcase tomorrow!! i'm so so excited, i chose the best song to sing as my final tribute to the school

#for anyone wondering the song i chose is sway by michael buble #funny story #i was asking the music director what song i should sing earlier today cause i put my name down on the list without actually knowing what- #-song i was doing #and he was like “if i could suggest a song to you #please please don't do a slow song or a ballad-y kind of song“ #“because many people have already chosen a slow song to sing. of course that's great we want to show off their talent- #-but it's going to be held at 7:30pm and we don't want to make the audience sleep pahaha“ #and i was like oh shit because the songs i had in mind were slow-ish. so i had to change my song #and i was like frantically looking through my playlist on the bus #wondering what song to pick #and as i was scrolling sway shows up and i was like “that song is so upbeat and people know it well enough” #“if i want to go out with a bang during my last week of school i should go for it” #so i changed the key and learnt the key changes the lyrics and the technicalities of the song (when to get louder how to add dynamic etc.)- #-in one night lmfao #now i'm going to sob over my final day as i write teachers' cards #[🌺] my posts! #[🗣️] nessa's rambles! #[🧍] ramble in the tags #probably the biggest ramble in the tags i've ever done

[lesbianlenas]

i have to say i find the way ppl talk abt gaylors to be strange…..i’m not one myself but as a lesbian i don’t like the way ppl act like gaylors are evil somehow for calling tswift a lesbian like in reality who cares…….truly i think it’s bc they r the only mainstream group of women speculating on the sexuality of a celebrity woman to that degree of fame. bc tswift fans who r obsessed w her heterosexual dating life r not in any way subject to scrutiny by ppl in general no one cares. and as much as there has been general debates on the ethics of speculating the sexualities of celebrity men and making fun of ppl that do there is a vastly different tone abt it. like ppl make fun of them and say they shouldn’t do it and whatnot (although i would like to point out that similarly this is mostly done by woman & all of this very much takes on a look at these silly women tone) but like there is a tone of superiority around ppl who dunk on gaylors and very much a tone of like look at these delusional women who have convinced themselves that someone sooooo obvs heterosexual is a lesbian aren’t they crazy. there is smth in particular abt talking abt a woman possibly being a lesbian that really rubs ppl the wrong way perhaps bc it is the antithesis of a woman’s role & it makes ppl uncomfortable to think a celebrity woman who has been marketed to them as being an ideal woman could potentially defy her expected role……i personally don’t think she is a lesbian but like other ppl calling lesbians delusional for thinking she is bothers me……so i am coming out to you all as a gaylor ally i stand w gaylors

#michelle speaks #also i saw a post that was annoying to me like oh ppl don’t want to engage w REAL gay artists so badly & they want to be so normal #so they want to listen to tswift and pretend she’s gay to be normie & not have to listen to real gays 🤪 #which is like. a very strange take. do u think all the gaylors do not listen to other lesbian music? do u think they only listen to her 😭 #also like idk…..smth tells me a lot of ppl reblogging that post probably do not listen to a lot of gay woman artists either lmfao. #obvs there is an extremism to this which goes too far. but like in general. just let the girlies have fun. who cares. #i also do think there is a general misogyny to the hatred ppl have for tswift fans who r mostly young women/girls lol #i’m by no means a tswift fan either but like 😭 ppl just love to criticize women so much fr…… #also like idk. i listen to a lot of not so well known gay/bi women artists and like. i think virtue signaling abt ur music is just weird 😭 #like u should listen to music that u enjoy…..who cares if it’s mainstream pop like tswift……it’s music 😭

my parent tonight rlly said "did you say those things last time i saw you to set me off??" as i was giving real and vulnerable answers about how i see the world and my life 💀 like NO bro why ?? what ?? why did that make you MAD and also NOW you're telling me ?? you're insane dude lmfao

#i was telling him about how i am willing to make sacrifices in my career #if it means being truer to my values #like ... not working for companies that i boycott or don't morally support #basically saying like my morals mean more to me than my career #and he was So Confused and kept giving like realllyyy long awkward silences followed by even more specific questions #and i - like a dumbass - kept answering them thinking he was genuinely interested #i now realize he was probably trying to mock me #but i was like 'oh good question well how i see it...' 💀 #why am i like this with him lmfao i just Deny his bullshit until it flys over my head #and then he spends days thinking about it meanwhile i forgot about it on the way home 💀 #what a dumb stupid guy lmfao #hikey #father figure

New fun language learning activities: read Wikipedia pages for philosophical and political theories in your target language, just for kicks.

#but actually. very funny. #this was inspired by the fact that I hit the random page button on italian wikipedia and ended up on the page l'anarchismo collettivista. #feel like this is probably either bewildering to any data trackers OR what will get me put on a watchlist. toss up really. #but actually great for like. weird verb forms and prepositions. #got told by an italian woman last month that she was impressed I used the word 'mentre' and I was like. welp. #might as well embrace being That Person who talks and writes like a fucking nerd regardless of context in TWO languages. #but also like. idk man. this is the problem with language learning. is mentre NOT a normal preposition? how do you say 'although'? #it was in fact used in the l'anarchismo collettivista article tho so. points for me. #but yeah I did squint at the word 'mezzi' before I processed the whole phrase and went 'oH MEANS OF PRODUCTION' so like #REALLY the moral of the story is to read up on pages that you would know the phrasing of in your native language lmfao #so you can figure out the weird words via context clues.

So weird to be in the "Sentido active" doc again

Finally following thru with my promise to make a sequel fic for it......

#speculation nation #im going to name it smth more well thought than just fucking Sentido #laziest name ever. oh well. #i'll probably keep with the theme and name it smth in spanish #to be like 'no this is Not just me using a spanish word bc it sounds cool' #i swear i speak spanish 😭 imperfect spanish but i am conversationally fluent i swear 😭 #i just dont like typing it usually bc im awful with spelling and then i end up self conscious about my grammar hfkshfjdj #easier to speak it. #anyways im at work and thinking about the oneshot #im only doing this bc i want vashwood Now and it's got some basis. also i want to write smut. such is life. #this will be the last tristamp related thing i make lmfao. and it is decidedly trimax flavor even still. #cant help being a trimax bitch! #still at work tho. i should probably work on closing things. :P

[pinksdoodles1]

been a while. stuff kinda happened but i don’t really feel like getting into it. anyways here’s yet another WIP. these two are tabaxis related to my pc - esmerr esterr (the litlte girl on the right) and an unnamed male relative (maybe an older brother, or an unrelated caretaker, idk).  they were part of a nomadic desert tribe, and one of their favorite pastimes was exploring ruins and other fun places in search of items and other treasures that they could trade away or sell to other tribes and travelers. i was thinking of making the boy a druid and the girl a rogue (and perhaps an assassin later on, but don’t worry about it).

their story doesn’t have the best ending, but that’s like the main risk of being part of a pc’s backstory. sometimes you just gotta die for someone else’s character development. whoops.

what even is the benefit for the user of an uber vs a taxi. like why are taxis a dying business due to ubers when functionally they are the same

#i get why ubers are appealing for drivers (independent get to choose hours etc) #i wouldnt really take either as a public transit liker but i would never take an uber tbh #anyways. posts written in the backseat of a taxi lmfao #oh my god. unrelated but i just realized i gave the driver the wrong address lmfaoooo 😭😭 #oh well probably street smarts to do that anyways. hashtag safety or whatever
