'Wool waulking is a traditional Scottish process of finishing and strengthening newly woven woolen fabrics. It is a significant social and cultural activity, often carried out by women in the Highlands of Scotland. The Gaelic songs that are sung during waulking have a distinctive rhythmic pattern that aids in synchronising the work.'

#so obsessed with waulking songs so i had to share this #folk #folk culture #scotland #scottish folklore #celtic folk #scottish gaelic

Watching The Bear is like... What if everyone loved you? What if they loved you so fucking much and what if you did right by them? What if you and your best friend took all your traumas and mixed them together and decided no-one else should go through that shit to be meaningful in your world? What if you fucked up and then got to take a breath and clean up and apologize? What if they gave you a chance and then helped you back up when you fell and you got to come through for them, over and over and over? Wouldn't that be so nice?

#the bear is about half 'how much mental illness can one person contain' and half 'how much community can fit in one kitchen' #fucking obsessed with a story that has almost no bad guys. just a bunch of complex people living their lives as best they know how #like carmy and syd really said that violent kitchen culture is destroying all of us and we will not be having it here #AND THEN IT WORKED! #the bear #the bear fx #carmy berzatto #sydney adamu

One of the most heart-wrenching things that've ever happened to me occurred while trying to research the Super Paper Mario art style.

"Ohh what a beautiful and interesting art style! It is very distinctive! I wonder if anyone else has tried or wanted to try breaking it down and replicating it?" Obliviously, I typed in Super Paper Mario Art Style into my search bar... only to find many people calling it ugly and saying they hate it.

This simply could not be... permanent damage was done to my artistic soul.

No joy? No whimsy in this world? No love of early computer graphics? Of the art that was born from the computer and is difficult to replicate without one? Of the art made when this was something new and fascinating? No love for something unique?

Super Paper Mario don't listen to all those haters I love your geometric art style influenced by what shapes are easily drawn on a computer and the smooth mechanical interpolation within your animations. I love you. Also the music is banger.

#super paper mario #spm #funny talking tag #I cannot understand why anyone would truly hate the art... it looks so cool it's so interesting to me. #However I realize that I'm not a Mario fan. SPM is quite literally the only Mario game I know anything about (beyond cultural osmosis). #(Well I know a little bit about Luigi's Mansion but mostly because I was obsessed with gameplay videos of it when I was 9) #(and whatever information that Lorraine feeds me because of his PHD in Mario autism) #SPM's only flaw is that you have to play it with the sideways Wiimote which is the worst control scheme that has ever been thought up. #(I did watch Lorraine play PM64 as well but as silly and charming as the game was... SPM has cooler art and a story. I like it a lot.)

Starting off the new year with I think the most background heavy piece I've ever made! I think Rainwings and Nightwings would celebrate their traditional holidays together after the events of The brightest night. So this drawing is meant to show their cultures kind of blending together during a very joyful time. I remember talking about this concept with someone on tumblr a year ago but when I went back through my posts I couldn't for the life of me find it - so if your reading this, I remember you and this drawing stems from that conversation so thank you!

Close-ups:

#They are celebrating the brightest night that's why there's so much moon symbolism in the decorations #I hope I translated my thoughts well enough so you can get the vibe of their celebration #I was split between drawing a tree glows from the lights that were hung up upon it #or a night rave with neon lights #because I think those two situations would result from blending nightwing and rainwing cultures together #also I wanted to show this like organised chaos of the different decoration styles of both rainwings and nightwings on the tree #Moon and Kinkajou are there too! #also you don't see the spearmaster looking nightwing #it just kind of came out looking like them? by accident #continuing my weird obsession with drawing giant trees I have to draw one every year so I might as well just check that now #wings of fire #wof #nighwing #rainwing #moonwatcher wof #kinkajou wof #dragon #art #cinnamon's doodles

to all of my dolls finding themselves:

originality is the "aesthetic" you are looking for. individuality is the "it factor" you are looking for. from your personality, pieces, hair, cadence of voice...even down to your favorite foods or special interests. you aren't supposed to change every aspect about yourself to be more palatable for everyone you meet. that actually makes you BORING!!!

"but so and so is doing this" "but what if people don't like it" ... so??? don't take people disliking your aesthetic as a sign that you need to do something different. like, of course they don't like it or have second thoughts - it's because THEY wouldn't do it themselves because it wouldn't go with THEIR given aesthetic. HELLOO??????

unless they are like minded, stop asking other people to weigh in on the things you CLEARLY like about yourself. especially if it's a core personality trait or interest. your LIFE isn't a group project. your LIFE is not a co-op game.

and yes... people will try to force you to assimilate and follow the crowd by speaking misfortune on your rebrand, your expression, your hobbies, your chosen path out of jealousy. however, that jealousy is lowkey unspoken respect for the fact you have the candor to go against homogeneity.

your authentic dedication to everything that makes you YOU is what will bring you the illustrious life you so fervently seek in the end...not some book a celebrity wrote or a youtube video. it's in YOUR DNA to be a star already in anything you want to do.

there isn't one tutorial on this world wide web that will help you if you don't realize you have the components within you first. there is NOTHING wrong with you!!! you are EVERYTHING that is right already!!!

NEVER conform to the way they think you should shine.

#thoughts #i cant stand seeing a pack mentality i hate seeing ppl shy out of who they are esp neurodivergents #while it is to be expected and is a result of our age group as well as cultural factors especially collectivism #i cannot help but reiterate how harmful it is for everyone to move as if they are the SAME PERSON! you are not so and so and they are not u #yall both just have the same hair or skin or smth you are still YOU hello #inspo is everything and dreams are a foundation BUT make it ur oWN #we all gotta start somewhere but golly gee! PUT THAT STUFF TO REST! #the obsession everyone has with humbling someone who is being themselves is old and tired! KEEP GOING I BELIEVE IN U DONT LISTEN TO THEM. #words i needed to hear when i was younger #ok rant over

Ya'll, putting the fact that I'm Keefe-obsessed aside, 9.5 is actually going to be so good. It sounds like we're going to get:

-What it feels like to go numb due to Empathy (and then we can understand Vespera more :D )

-Keefe trying beans on toast

-Keefe realizing that humans really don't have it very easy (no gnome servants and birthfunds for them!)

_SHANNON FINALLY MAKING IT A FOCUS THAT ELVES AND HUMANS ARE REALLY SIMILAR AND THE WORLD'S PROBLEMS LIE ON EVERYONE'S SHOULDERS

-maybe MAYBE some jucy bits about Keefe reading the myth of the sinking of atlanis

-Please please just give me some Atlantis crumbs

-Keefe meeting struggling teens like him (humans can go numb too without even having empathy)

-The narrative slowly going from hating on "stupid" and "weak" humans to feelings of respect and understanding

#I just want there to be bits of culture that only humans have or somthin #im so happy for 9.5 #gives me an excuse to be obsessed with kotlc longer #keeper of the lost cities #kotlc #kotlc fandom #keefe sencen #kotlc keefe #kotlc 9.5

For those of you wondering about Les's mysterious younger sibling. It's Hed, he's the little brother.

They share a mom who was a rock troll. Les's dad is funk, and Hed's dad is rock, but he lived in Vibe City since very young so he's also basically mixed genre like his bro.

In the second pic he's singing/rapping Tastes Just Like Chicken by Scatterbrain. I feel like this is the kind of music he would make when younger.

and bonus: meet the nominees for the worst parents award

#trolls #dreamworks trolls #ex bandmates #my art #I feel like trolls' music genres are based in their genes (race) #but are also an amalgamation of their upbringing. culture. and perhaps even gender (🤔) #like it's an integral part of their self expression that they can't live happily without #and like all those things many have a clear relationship with it while with some it's not so cut-and-dried #and they need a while to figure it all out #I chose the parents genres solely based on what the brothers' genres derive from irl because I'm a little obsessed with the little details #they are also whatever is the troll equivalent of potheads and crackheads. also drunks... #also just awful trolls all around #the brothers really hit a jackpot with them #trolls oc #les #hed

I am obsessed with the idea of two characters growing into love instead of falling in love, like they wouldn’t instantly love each-other, they would learn with time how much they deeply mean to one another, on all their good and bad days they would choose to love the other , learn new things they like to do together, live their lives and wanting the other by their side always,they’d grow into a live they made all by themselves. growing into a sense of love that isn’t exactly romantic , but a love they made together, a bond that they wouldn’t break for the world

#with all the kate middleton conspiracies and detective work with photo analysis and media etc. #it just reminds me deeper how so much that occurred during 1D and especially with BG #could’ve only happened in the timeframe it happened in #when twitter and social media as a whole wasn’t as engaging and analytical as it is now #like there’s now such a need to uncover all the lies and curtains that hollywood and the industry pulls over on the GP #and with such a trend of exposing things and people in the industry #it would be like moth to a flame #so much shit could only be pulled off because of the vacuum of the time it was set in #imagine so many things that occurred during that era and the consistent weirdness of BG (especially with photos and videos) #it would’ve been torn to pieces by twitter internet sleuths in 2.5 seconds which would bring so much of the twitter GP obsessed with pop #culture to start threads and jump down rabbit holes etc. #it’s just always fascinating to see #especially when the buzzfeed article that occurred during BG that tried and failed to highlight all the inconsistencies #was like. the peak of coverage about it #on the other hand i’m sorta glad it did happen the way it did because imagine how much would be said about louis over that entire thing #and people would be ruthless #idk just some rambles
