I feel like I’m really seeing my growth, & I just… I fucking love that for me….
The old Xiomara had lost all passion, she let the world taint her view of herself…
The Xiomara I am today is…. A dream come true… She shows up for herself. She embraces the journey of starting anew….
I can say that I definitely inspire myself. I shall continue to do so! ✨🔥💚🔥✨🤘🏾

people being like "the new fob cover is bad because it's tonally inconsistent and silly" as if the original song doesn't list wheel of fortune, AIDS, and "rock and roller cola wars" within like 20 seconds of each other

Even though I enjoy 3/4 LOONA’s Japanese releases, the lyrics in PTT and Luminous annoy me. I kind of get why PTT was like that since they decided to have a Korean AND Japanese version with specific English parts in place, which causes obvious constraints, but Luminous? Just frustrating, even though I always love it when LOONA have the astronomy motif.

Carnie/Circus one piece au but set in the one piece world:
Zoro is the strong man, easy. He’s lifting stuff that shouldn’t physically be able to be lifted. Sorry, he doesn’t do sword swallowing because he respects his sword too much and also the one time he tried, Luffy got the idea you could actually eat swords. Not good. He has however done some performances where he uses his swords, but he doesn’t like to do that too often.
Sanji is the contortionist but also does acrobatics. Sometimes he’ll do contortionist/balance performances with Zoro where Zoro is lifting like 7 chairs stacked on top of one another and Sanji is climbing and balancing on the top.
Nami is the ring master. DUH. She also is in charge of finances.
Luffy is kind of a jack of all trades. He’s doing set up and take down, he’s joining the contortionist act, he’s dressing as a clown, he’s doing face painting, the only thing he’s not allowed to do is work concessions.
Usopp is the fortune-teller, spinning stories of love or disaster depending on what the persons vibes are
Franky is in charge of maintaining the whole thing. He’s fixing things and building sets and figuring out logistics of take down and set up for different locations across the nation.
Robin is doing aerials, with those long fabric pieces and soaring around. She’s elegant, she’s cool, she makes it look effortless (and it is for her). Behind the scenes, she’s in charge of helping Nami with the administrative stuff
Jimbei is working with Franky, but sometimes zoro ropes him into joining his strong man shows. Everyone thinks Jimbei will be the strongman and then zoro lifts Jimbei and everyone loses their shit
Chopper is an animal act (come see the talking raccoon dog!) to get easy money but he also runs the med tent. People get weird at circus/carnivals and a medic is always needed.
If Ace comes, he does a hula hoop / fire show with Sanji that results in a suspiciously pissy Zoro watching their rehearsals

The Witcher Headcanon (Modern AU) - Error 404 Brain Not Found: Bonus Scene - Part 2
Geralt 'hmm'ed distractedly as he watched the tv. He was vaguely aware that Jaskier was talking, but that was nothing out of the ordinary. Jaskier was always talking, or singing, or making some kind of noise.
Geralt blinked as something Jaskier had said brought itself to his attention. It had been something about his mouth, and balls.
"Hm?"
"I said 'How many cheeseballs do you think I could fit in my mouth?'"
Geralt shrugged, "I don't know, one? They are pretty big."
"That's what she said!" Jaskier said almost automatically, then contiued, "Not the actual ball of cheese ones, I mean the little crunchy snack ones that come in the barrel."
"I don't know, three? Four?"
"How many do you think you could fit in your mouth?"
Geralt shrugged. They looked at each other for a moment, then Geralt said, "I'll get the keys."
One quick trip to the grocery store later, and they were sitting on the couch, shoving cheeseballs into their mouths and grunting muffled numbers at each other
"What the f**k?" Yennefer asked, having walked in to see them covered in orange cheese dust, and looking like chipmunks getting ready for winter. They made grunting and mumbling noises at her, excitedly trying to sign numbers at her.
"Never mind, I don't want to know."
From then, it became a sort of competition. Geralt and Jaskier would see a small food item and try to see how many they could fit in their mouths.
Yennefer walked by the kitchen one morning to see Geralt and Jaskier standing at the table, a variety of small food items arranged before them. She didn't even try to entertain the idea that they were being considerate enough to make lunch.
Neither of them could cook a decent meal to begin with. They regularly sent Yennefer photos of their failed endeavors. Broken dishes, melted kitchenware, shattered knives, food on the ceiling, food on fire... She's seen it all.
No, this was not an attempt at a meal. The foods laid out on the table were too small, and while they had the odd vegetable and fruit sprinkled in, they were mostly junk foods like chips, candies and other sweets.
It was some kind of stupid game, Yennefer knew. She could tell by the score card and how Geralt was carefully counting out loud as Jaskier stuffed blueberries into his mouth, which didn't look like it had room for much more.
Yennefer poked her head in the doorway, said "Dookie!" then walked away as Jaskier spat his mouthful of blueberries all over the floor and wailed in dismay.
They had to try to either play the game while Yennefer was out, or play in secret. It was exceedingly difficult to play if Yennefer was around because she would sneak up on them and yell random things that would make one of them spit their food out.
"Bumhole!"
"When his pickle tickles the back of your throat!"
"Mud cupboard!"
"Starting out small with the ball gargling training?"
"Butt nuggets!"
"Stink wrinkle!"
"Beef hula hoop!""
"Titties!"
"Bum fluff!"
"Hershey squirts!"
P*ss flaps!"
"You going to spit or swallow?
"Peepity poo!"
"Dirt star!"
It was almost always Jaskier who ended up spitting everyting out and almost choking.
So now they were out on the back porch, trying to be really quiet, which wasn't at all suspicious, while they tried to see how many twinkies each of them could fit in their mouth
Yennefer happened to walk by and see them. Jaskier and Geralt both had their mouths stuffed to where they almost couldn't close them. It was equal parts disgusing and humorus.
Jaskier was right in the middle of using both hands to cram one more twinkie into his mouth. Yennefer could not stop herself.
She paused at the door and asked, "Did Geralt fill that twinkie for you?"
Jaskier immediately started giggling, and fumbled, trying to catch the bits of mushy twinkie that fell out of his mouth. Then he tried to stuff them back in while making incoherent noises, which, judging by the tone, were strings of cuss words.
The sight made Geralt laugh, and with his mouth full of snack cake, he'd sounded like a barking seal.
Jaskier lost it. He gagged his twinkies onto the porch and laughed so hard he wheezed.
Geralt laughed even harder, which made Jaskier laugh more.
The bard went to grab the edge of the small table to support himself, and slipped in the twinkie mush, landing right in it. Geralt just gave up and dropped on the ground, barking around his mouthful of sponge cakes.
Geralt: *seal noises*
"A-a seeeeaal! A f***ing...sEAl!" Jaskier guffawed.
They laughed until their sides ached and Geralt finally got smart and spat the massive hunk of twinkies out.
It was hours later before either of them remembered that Yennefer had f**ked up their count, and even after they did remember, all they could think about was Geralt's stupid Seal Laugh.

kaiagpt, can you tell me a bit about flow arts? Please explain as if I'm a total beginner
Flow arts is a term for a variety of disciplines generally considered to be at the intersection of object manipulation and dance, and the culture and community surrounding them. Common props used in flow arts include staff, hula hoop, poi, fan, sword, and many more. It's similar to and overlapping with other terms, like juggling, circus arts, prop manipulation, martial arts, etc. It is also sometimes used to describe associated arts like acro-yoga, aerial and pole dance, etc.
The term "Flow arts" is used by practitioners to emphasize the meditative nature and "flow state" that some practitioners experience when doing flow arts. It is also often called "fire dance" or "fire spinning" because many practitioners light their props on fire. However, it is also frequently practiced with LED-light props or non-glowing props.
Flow arts is often associated with music festivals, burning man, and alternative spirituality. Practitioners often meet at "flow jams", or for more elaborate multi-day "flow festivals". Many flow artists also post videos of their performances online, particularly on Youtube, Instagram, and Tiktok.

Fire Dancer
But- but hear me out. Ami as a fire dancer preforming with a group that travels around Briar Valley and one time when she's on show Lilia and Baul are also there to watch. She uses a hula hoop as her main preformance that has these spikes that you can light on fire, spinning it on her hips as you're supposed to. And naturally, that kind of hip movements draws the attention of mainly the male side of the audience especially with the purple and gold bellydancer dress she has on. And the same can be said about the two fae soldiers
After the show..needless to say they want to watch those hips roll a bit closer in private. And she's not above giving a demonstration to them fine men *wink wonk*

Here’s the glamour shot of the doily I just finished, and I want to start with it because it’s such a contrast to all the steps it takes to get to the aesthetically-pleasing endpoint. It’s got me thinking about that post from a while ago about getting into hobbies cheaply, and also about the internet thing of only seeing the edited highlights of people’s lives, and assuming that they must be much cooler/luckier/more talented than you.
So I wanted to put together some carefully edited lowlights. Or at least a more complete view of the process.
To begin with, projects always have a stage where they look like this:
Tumblr media
This is tiny, difficult to work with, unimpressive, and also wrong. I took the picture, then knitted a couple of brief rounds, and realized I’d screwed something up with the initial cast-on and the center wouldn’t close properly. I had to take it apart and start over.
I failed to take a picture of the finished doily once it was off the needles, but before it was blocked. It was the usual shriveled, lumpy blob that knitted lace always is. Most of the other kinds of things I’ve made also go through spells of being metaphorically shriveled, lumpy blobs. Those stages rarely get documented, because at the time I’m not thinking about taking pictures, I’m thinking about crumpling the whole project into a wad, setting it on fire, and kicking it down a stairwell.
It’s easy to be discouraged and give up at that point. I was pretty old before I learned not to abandon things just because they looked like hell, halfway through. Sometimes if I kept going, they would shape up and turn into something perfectly respectable. (Sometimes it wasn’t exactly what I’d planned at the beginning, but interesting all the same.)
So, blocking. I enjoy blocking, especially lace. Partly because of how much better it looks afterward, but also because I love tinkering with apparatus. I get to feel like a mad scientist, or an olde-timey inventor, or something. And also because lace is considered fancy and elegant, and the things I use for blocking very much aren’t, and I find the contrast delightful.
Tumblr media
This is the crappiest hula hoop in the world. It’s too small and too lightweight to use for actual hula-hooping, but it’s great for doilies. The rubber-bands-and-paper-clips method of blocking has the advantage of equalizing the tension, so you don’t have to endlessly fiddle with adjusting the pins and hoping the end result will be symmetrical.
The Ravelry pattern page for this doily shows it blocked in a circle, while the one listed project has it shaped into a more angular pentagon. I was curious to see what it would do if left to settle itself into whatever shape it liked, and it seems to have split the difference.
When the doily is being stretched on the hoop, it looks incredibly lame. The hoop isn’t round, and the doily isn’t even centered properly for some reason, but ultimately that doesn’t matter.
Tumblr media
Once it’s dry, and you take away all the ungainly rigging, there it is, a lace thing that looks like some kind of big deal.
Tumblr media
And then it’s mostly a matter of waiting until the wretched sun finally comes out again, so you can get some decent pictures.

Thank you for answering my other ask! I am curious about everyone's events, and if you're still willing to put together a list I'd love to read it! I was a girl scout when I was younger, so that's my camp experience, but I'm really interested in summer camps so this au is very interesting to me lol. Oh, and do they have charging stations there for everyone? And can you tell us more about the other two humans aside from Y/N and Vanessa?
Yes yes yes yes ABSOLUTELY Thank you for asking!!!!
Ok to Start, everyone's events
Freddy- Play activities! This usually involves a variety of props and toys, like jumpropes, hula hoops, foam balls, and a variety of other stuff. Most times he'll have some fun creative game to play, but his events are basically just recess.
Chica-Snacks. Usually involves teaching the campers to make different fun snacks and having all the groups make different variations of snacks! (The camper's favorite to make is ice cream) and these snacks are usually enjoyed that night at a big bon fire!
Foxy and Bonnie- Team activities. Foxy and Bonnie co-lead these events and its usually team games like capture the flag and kickball! The two are very close friends but also very competitive with eachother.
Roxy- Nature activities. Usually a Hike, rock climbing, or camping lessons like how to start a fire. She also sets up occasional nature scavenger hunts.
Monty- Water activities. As I said on the last post, anything involving water is Monty's forte, sometimes this is just a big swim day at the camp's lake, or an extra long afternoon in the pool! He's the camp favorite on hot days.
Sun- Crafts! Of course Sun is in charge of campwide crafts, usually teaching the kids how to tie dye, or make lanyards! He also has a box full of friendship bracelets (at least one from every camper). His best event was when he lead the camp in making custom flags for each cabin!
Moon- Camp songs! He teaches the entire camp songs, and usually has fun song-based games for campers to do! He also passes out small instruments like tambourines and maracas for the kids to play along with! Unlike the other counselors though, Moon's event day is reserved for the Friday night bonfires!
Y/N and Delilah- Educational interactive activities! Usually involving some cool sciencey medical fact, Delilah and Y/N usually team up to teach the kids something cool and new, although it can sometimes be boring (like their lesson on poison Ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac. But sometimes they're a big hit, like teaching the kids how to ride horses or showing them snakes from the reptile house.
As for the rest of your question
Charging stations, YES! They do have charging stations! Just like in the pizzaplex they each have their own rooms (albeit less fancy than those of the plex as they're remodeled cabin rooms that the human counselors used to stay in) They do have charging stations! However, as part of their outdoor upgrades, they can go about two and a half days without charging, although it isn't recommended. The counselors (human and animatronic) all stay in a very large cabin that rests kind of in between all the camper's cabins so they can hear and rush to the kids aid should something happen! Y/N, Delilah, and K.C. Stay here but Vanessa has her own quarters.
Also I'd LOVE to tell you about Delilah and K.C.
K.C. is actually Y/N's roommate! The two were dormmates In their early college days and got along so well they just moved into an apartment together! K.C. Is a mechanical engineering major and was actually really excited about having animatronics at the camp! K.C. is also the one who convinced Y/N to come back to work at the camp this year (after they swore up and down that last year would be the last time they worked at a summer camp)! K.C. is actually their initials and their name is Kasey Caldwell. (They go by K.C. because they think its funny that it sounds just like their normal first name)
As for Delilah, she has been a counselor at the camp for years! She's studying to become a zoologist and has a LOVE for animals. She takes care of the animals they keep there at camp, and is happy to teach the kids about them. She also happens to be the granddaughter of the camp's previous owners and went to the camp since she was a little kid! She's a bit more hesitant around the animatronics at first, but quickly becomes friends with them, and loves having them around! She's very friendly but also kind of oblivious. Y/N and K.C. love her dearly though and the three of them like to call themselves "The Terrible Trio" even though they're really not that bad
Vanessa is kind of a mystery to Y/N. She does her job and keeps the camp stocked full of supplies and operational, but she never seems to be around. Whenever Y/N HAS talked to Vanessa she's very wishy washy, sometimes being very friendly before suddenly being very cold and threatening. (and Y/N Swears they've heard her talking to herself a few times) very freaky Lady. Gives Y/N bad vibes
