#Hand carding

[ezekiellsplayground]

Decided to blend some grey BFL tops from my stash with the black Faroe Island sample tops from one of last years monthly fibre club. The difference in staple length is INSANE! The faroe is easily twice the length if not longer than the BFL. But it’s making such a lovely blended charcoal colour.

The onion skins dyed wool is dry!

So time to card it with some yellow silk, that I still have from the rdf 2022! (I wanted to mix it with super fine merino, but i fits better with the south German onion merino )

1. Time through the carder:

Much carding to be done.

I will sit outside and do it but under a cape and a wide brimmed hat because I am not going to become the lobster.

I have done up more singles. The purple is SO SOFT. I love it so much. Such fine squish and the texture gives me the good brain. Unfortunately I have no idea what I did to get that result. My hand carding technique is basically:

1. Wool on cards

2. Brush brush brush

3. ????

4. Spin single

The spring green is the last of my pre-card stuff I did. I much prefer the rolag-to-long draw than combed top-to-anything. Even if my rolags are basically long dust bunnies, haha.

I'm debating on what to ply together. I'm wondering if the blues and the white would look like a wave (ala Katsushika Hokusai). I think I might save the yellow and see if I can't do a nineties inspired throwback. All the eyes must bleed!

I swear there's wool coming out of the bag. I promise it's not as full as when I started.

Tried to tip a tumblr blog at 1am and it was such a suspicious transaction it immediately put a full fraud freeze on my account

Fortunately, banks no longer just ask 'did you make that transaction' they want to make sure you weren't scammed into making that transaction and 5mins after their call will give away all your money anyway.

This is an honest to goodness life saving movement and I cannot be happier banks are adopting it

Unfortunately, it meant I had to have the most embarrassing financial call of my life

-

Me: Ah yeah I was just trying to tip a tumblr blog

Cash: right and were you directed there by a Facebook link? An Instagram advert?

Me: no I was just on tumblr...on purpose

-

Caah: and this person asked you for money?

Me: oh no they just had a funny story, which happened to be about money and I thought, "wouldn't it be funny if I tipped them"

-

Me: * covering a reblog by reblog update on the adventures my mutual was having *

Cash: okay I don't think that can actually happen though..

Me: It might not have, but i was happy to tip them just because it was funny

-

Cash: and how well do you think you know this person?

Me: *considers explaining how much I know about a beloved mutual without ever knowing their name or face* ... I have no idea who this person is

I think in the end Cash decided there was no saving me from myself

#Chase unblocked my card #But I did not come off well #But this is a good thing! #Be fraud aware! #Tipping a blog should be like handing money to someone in the street #Only do it if you can afford it and WANT TO and do not care what it goes on #It COULD be a scam #You've got to be alright with that #YOU DO NOT KNOW THESE PEOPLE #THE VET BILL ASKS ARE A SCAM #scams

Generation Loss is a comedic tragedy in every sense of the word. Every character we see exemplifies this fact, but no one other than The Austin Show proves its truth.

We begin at the carousel. Austin, Gay, takes his turn by pleading for himself to live because he has a wife and children back home. The rest of the cast interrogates him about his “wife and kids,” clearly suspicious of his truthfulness without even knowing his dubbed “title.” Everyone in the room treats Austin like a joke.

In turn, so do we.

Next, we reach the closet and shortly after the failed drag show, Austin remarks, “Look, I uh… I didn’t expect to die here.” It’s a moment of pure honesty, whether we like it or not. It happens again when the Puzzler tries to party with them, and Austin has to angrily remind him that they are his captives and are actively trying to kill them.

Austin: “What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing? We're trying to get out of here. I have children and wives— wife. One wife! What is this some sort of game? I’ve been stuck in hear for hours it seems. We’re trying to get out. Why is nobody else freaking out? We’ve got C4 strapped to our neck…”

It isn’t until Ethan’s death, his blood pooling out from underneath the door, Austin screaming at the others, begging them to have a reaction, to care about their circumstances, to care about death, that we finally understand Austin’s role in Generation Loss.

After all, in every great comedy, someone always has to play the straight man.

#generation loss #genloss #ranboo #ranboolive #austin show #I LOVE IMPROV STORYTELLING SO MUCH #You can pry genloss improv from my cold dead hands #yeah yeah the pacing was funky #But you can’t ignore the joy it brings when it creates accidental dramatic irony #I adore it so #remember the artwork of genloss characters as card suits? #Like Ranboo is the diamond Sneeg is the spade and Charlie as the club? #This is my formal application to make Austin the heart #he always talks about love and his family is his motivation to keep going and oof :( #he deserved so much better #gl!austin

need to kiss him until we’re both silly and delirious and giggling, until we’re both grabbing at each other’s shoulders and sides and arms, until we’re both half hazardously stumbling our way backwards onto the couch in a heap of laughter just so we can be as close as possible and we’re clumsily bumping foreheads and noses. need to kiss him until he can’t stop smiling and until we’re both stupidly lovestruck and just clinging to each other

#head in hands. i need to be kissed #waaaaah ignore meeeee… #but not like. really. witness me being so horrendously in love with the card game anime boy please #warmshipping #was going to say something about breathing each other’s air but i’d sound way more unhinged about this guy if i did so #i will be. somewhat normal. for now #rainy’s posting about premarital kissing again everyone point and laugh #self ship #f/o imagines #romantic f/o #self shipping #imagine your f/o
