#does this make me canadian?

[kyistell]

Heyhey, you know whats still open? My ask box. Art and headcanons, I'll do it at some point, you just gotta specify what you want me to do :D

I have stuff I should be doing, but lets be honest with ourselves, procrastination makes you do more than you thought you would because it's 3 in the morning and you need sleep but can't till you done the thing

#welcome to the table #wttt new jersey #wttt new york #wttt california #literally need to be writing something #cause im kinda behind #cause i wanna do a chap a day #ive been doing well til yesterday #damn you hockey #but i need other things to do inbetween when i have no idea what to write #just art and hcs this time #since like i said #already writing lol #also #side note #went out a little bit ago to quick check #wearing shorts and a light jacket under my jersey #am i okay? #does this make me canadian? #idk i heard Canadians do that #oh god being friends with a canadian #has made me canadian by proxy #shit

Americans not giving a shit about the wildfires burning down forests and homes in Canada until smoke starts spreading across the border. Meanwhile Indigenous communities across the country are far more likely to be impacted by the fires and I’ve seen all of one link to a charity and about nine million memes. 🙃

#yeah yeah hashtag notallamericans or whatever the fuck #I’m just irritated watching people whine or centre themselves #like sorry your clothes smell like smoke gladys but people have lost their fucking homes #and the government does fuck all for indigenous communities #so you know who’s gonna end up getting more aid #but sure brad can’t go out for his usual morning jog because of the canadians #also all these fucking news articles making ir about america as if canada has somehow done this on purpose out of spite #someone buy me a punching bag for my birthday thanks #artschoolrambles

Darling, there's a part of me / I'm afraid will always be / trapped within an abstract from a moment of my life.

#does it even count as a fandom for me until I make an extremely elaborate 8tracks style blorbo playlist with a full narrative arc ??? #and YEAH I KNOW I put the same bands in my playlists every time - what of it - I have consistent taste #bbc ghosts #bbc ghosts playlist #the captain #the captain ghosts #capvers #captain/havers #capvers playlist #sitzfleischh.edit #anyway this might be my best playlist yet - there is basically an entire fanfic in my head that accompanies this tbh #caphavers #I JUST HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS ABT THE CAPTAIN OK #also more people need to listen to legendary Canadian band the Weakerthans #it didn't fit for this playlist but go listen to Past Due by the Weakerthans and think about all the ghosts and cry

I want to buy a sticker from your shop, but shipping (to Canada) is down as $22 before tax. May I ask why it costs so much to ship a single sticker? Is it Etsy being weird, or does it really cost that much to send an envelope over the border?

I'm not trying to be snarky or passive aggressive or anything, I'm genuinely just kind of befuddled atm.

A fair question honestly! USPS sets the rates for international shipping, and shipping to canada really is about that expensive 😭 I considered sending stickers via envelopes, but 1. if I send them with a stamp (less than $2) they don't have tracking, and etsy Does Not Like That. I gotta send packages with shipping to qualify for star seller, plus it covers your ass in case USPS loses it. and 2. apparently it's illegal to send merchandise internationally in envelopes!! so sadly we're all stuck dealing with the super crazy international rates. I don't like it either because as someone who deals in trinkets, people generally do not want to pay $16 for a charm that costs $12, and they especially don't want to pay that for a sticker that costs $4... I would ABSOLUTELY have way more international sales if USPS wasn't fucking us with the prices but it's out of my control dssdjkfjksdf

I give this advice a lot, but if you don't want to pay international shipping (or just live in a country I don't ship to myself), you can borrow the address of a friend that lives in the states and they can forward it to you! I don't actually know if this is cheaper, but some people have said it is. it's def cheaper for stickers though if your friend uses a stamp!

TL;DR yeah etsy and USPS are Both Weird, sorry ; - ; i assure you i hate it even More than you do lmao

#etsy #not art #ask #anonymous #anon #i think i actually did have like three canadian sticker orders last week all in the same day #one of them ordered multiple stickers but two were just. One. and i'm like. you guys are either rich or crazy but either way i respect it #even US shipping is getting more and more expensive. five years ago i'd pay 2.80 to ship a 1 oz first class package #now its almost $4. even just over $4 if i ship to like California or something! #i'm gonna put a general PSA here to please not be too upset with small businesses' shipping rates even in the US #not to imply anon is or that anybody has said anything! but i do see like tiktoks and social media comments #on Other People's Pages saying like OMG $5 SHIPPING??? INSANE I'M NOT PAYING THAT #amazon has spoiled you guys sorry. shipping isn't free. not only do i have to pay for the shipping label #i have to pay for my bubble mailers. my envelopes. the thermal labels i print on. i recycle my bubble wrap at least but i have to pay #for materials as well. so this seems like a good place to mention it #frankly i shouldn't even have the stupid 'free shipping over $35' thing because again shipping is like $4 give or take 30c by location #but etsy makes me and it Does bring in sales so i'll pretend it balances out

I don't think I'll ever stop getting chills when Jane starts floating in the middle of the "Ballad of Jane Doe."

Like, singing while floating and twisting upside down is hard enough. But to hit high soprano notes like that while floating and twisting makes it all the more impressive.

#the fact that og jane is also canadian #makes me so proud #ride the cyclone #rtc jane doe

The majority of Canadians who vehemently hate Trudeau don't even know what the fuck they're hating. So few of these people actually have anything coherent or of substance to critique Trudeau on and resort to name calling and thought stopping techniques when you press them on to explain their thoughts and opinions.

#insane how many people are willing to just be blindly led and not pause to consider their own viewpoints in depth #for the record i too have criticsms of our PM but a lot of Canadians hate trudeau for things that aren't even his fault or responsibility #voting for the PCs out of spite is painfully stupid and ignorant #canada does not have a two-party system the way the US does #canadians as a whole are so PAINFULLY ignorant of polictics and and how our government works #makes me worried for our 2025 federal election especially with how increasingly right wing this country has become

btw i also think kucherov should take the hart which makes me seem like an a.vs hater which i literally am not! however this one i am not so bullish on because nathan has also had just an absolutely incredible year. i just feel like if he won it would be partly because they're leaping on the chance to give it to him because of his body of work and the fact that he hasn't won it before, whereas kuch, with respect to the rest of the bolts, particularly mr. point, is quite literally the entirety of his team's offense LOL.

#BUT i do grant i have a real fondness for kuch which does make me biased. i wouldn't be as mad about this one as if quinn lost the norris. #i will say though. #the general treatment of kucherov also uh. reeks of russophobia which is like. a fraught topic in the year of our lord 2024! #and the tags of this post aren't the place to get into that but. just know. if he was canadian or american the convo would sound different #meg.txtpost

(WIP) ummm lets just say that theoretically

I mucked around with some genders

because it would be interesting if these two were inspired by different things while creating their version of Cap

#and you won't see the version of Cap until im done XD #wow genderbends how original!!!!!! #/sarcasm #anywayss im not tagging this properly because its not finished #also i gotta name all these idiots #(i don't want to go for the cliché of calling George “Georgia” and stuff like that) #though funnily enough i already have a name for this au version of Melvin #does this count as an au?? #kinda i guess #because the Cap of this AU has sort of different powers and stuff from canon #which reminds me that I don't have a name for her yet either :P #yeah #i initially had two names lined up for this universe's Melvin but i thought one of them would fit George better #idk #I'll probably say the names that i thought of when i finish this #though if anyone wants to give me suggestions for Harold and Cap's names that would be cool #I'm trying not to go with the obvious ones or copy anyone else #but still have them be related to the characters if that makes sense? #like for example #i stole Melvin's name from the Canadian French dub of the movie #(which is a pain in the bum to find #as per usual with Canadian French/Swiss German dubs of anything) #(kinda wish there was a swiss german dub of the movie because professor p) #whoops went on a dub tangent #hehehe autism™ #ok I'll stop now
