…How do we feel about the environmental implications of certain very tiktok-friendly Small Business Crafts such as resin work and polymer clay jewelry. I know that I feel and think things about them but I don’t really know what those things are

#like are they yet another expression of first world consumerist luxury? #is it irresponsible to create with what is essentially a lot of plastic? #is it stupid to shame people for this when their impacts are negligible compared to manufacturers and industry? #or is it something to be more concerned about? #how is the ‘accessible low-entry level craft -> small business on tiktok’ pipeline affecting artists? #in what ways do these crafts intersect w privilege or lack thereof? #what makes them different from things like beading/embroidery/pottery/painting/metalwork/sewing/other arts and crafts? #are they different at all? #idk I just feel like on the one hand yay creativity on the other hand i feel like it’s trendifying/yassifying/commodifying certain aspects #of creativity #like most amateur like ‘small business’ tiktok girlies are just making things that follow trends and often copies of whatever is popular atm #(​at least in my experience) #like do you know what I mean. like all the resin girlies with their molds they bought on aliexpress #and the polymer clay earring girlies where they make the clay look like marble/stone in a ‘satisfying’ grammable process #of chopping up teeny bits of clay and mixing it with acrylic paint and gold leaf and rolling it all out #and it’s ‘satisfying’ and just the ~perfect~ vehicle for ~trending audios~

The Gang React to You Falling Asleep on Them

Lucifer

*deep sigh that speaks volumes to how difficult it is for this man to get any sleep, and here you are, conked out on his shoulder...*

If you don't wake up within a few minutes, he'll have no choice but to move. He is not the sort to be so sentimental that he can't bear the thought of disturbing your precious sleeping face. Of course, he won't be an asshole about it; he'll be careful and try not to wake you up. He might even drape his jacket over you for your nap.

But only if he doesn't need it.

Mammon

"Hey, my arm's gettin' a little stiff, can I just-- ...ah."

Oh. Ah. Alright. Cool. This is happening. Hmm. Damn. Not super comfortable, and it's kinda inconvenient to be trapped here, but, pshh, what's he supposed to do, wake up a sleeping human? He's heard that can lead to...cardiac arrest, or something. He ain't gonna murder you just to move a little sooner.

You did not just start snuggling him in your sleep. Did Mammon score today or did he score today? Too bad his arm's starting to fall asleep, but, well, nothin' in life is free.

Leviathan

"What...? WHAAAAAAT?" (But only in his brain. He doesn't want to wake you up. Mammon says that can lead to cardiac arrest in humans.)

He's pretty sure he's the one who's going to keel over from heart problems at this rate. He hadn't even realized you were getting sleepy. Are you bored watching him tackle this single-player old school RPG? Did you hate it all this time and you never even mentioned it?! Why is your face so close?! Do you not have any idea the kind of mental torture you're putting him through right now?!

Deep breaths, Levi. Deep breaths. This happens in anime all the time. It's...usually a good thing! It means that the main character and their love interest are tripping all the right flags, and... and how long is this scene going to last? Those scenes almost always end with the two still on the couch, then they skip to the next day or something. How long is he going to have to just sit here... suffering...?

After about ten minutes, he's reached his limit and he gently shakes you awake. He is so embarrassed that he insists you go to bed now, and he will not take no for an answer. Good night. Goodbye. *door slams*

AAAAHHHHHHHHH.

Satan

"Hm? Have you been getting enough sleep...?"

Satan would be very pleased with the situation, though probably less intensely excited than Mammon. He'll make whatever small adjustment is necessary for his comfort, then settle in and read for as long as it takes you to wake up. He feels very warm and fuzzy. It's nice. Hopefully you do this more often. But he should really ask you about your sleep schedule. Levi must be forcing you to stay awake too often.

Asmodeus

"Aww, aren't you adorable?"

This is precious. He needs to document it. As soon as he realizes what's happening, he'll carefully pull out his D.D.D., making sure not to wake you up, and start snapping pics. A few of you, a few dozen selfies with you, a few with him pretending to be asleep too, and then a perfect shot of him kissing your forehead. Grammable as fuck.

Er... is that drool he can see in one of those photos? ...You're going to have to wake up. You can't just drool on his brand-name jacket.

Beelzebub

"Oh."

He's used to people falling asleep on him, so this doesn't really throw him for much of a loop. However, he's a bit more careful of waking you up. He knows that if he wakes Belphie, he'll just fall back asleep within a few seconds, but you're not quite so adaptable. So he'll do his best to stay quiet and not move much.

But no matter how hard he tries, he's never going to be able to turn off his stomach. You'll probably wake up with a start as his stomach roars at you about twenty inches from your face.

Belphegor

"...zzzz..."

Who are we kidding, we all know he was asleep first. Probably, he's the reason you fell asleep so easily. He's soft and warm, perfect for drifting off to dreamland...

Diavolo

"Very bold! You really are astonishingly brave."

It's not every day someone has the stones to fall asleep in his presence, let alone fall asleep and use him as some sort of glorified pillow. What a nice change of pace.

He'll continue doing whatever it is he was doing before, but he is a busy demon, running the Devildom and all. He'll slowly and carefully extricate himself when it's time to move, then have Barbatos bring you a blanket and prepare some tea for when you wake up.

Barbatos

"Humans are awfully needy creatures, aren't they."

He can't help but chuckle. You just pass out during the middle of the day? Then again, it's possible you're probably not entirely well. He'll have to disturb the young master to ask what sort of accommodations to make for you. Of course, he's sure Diavolo won't mind. But it's irresponsible to let yourself drift off like this in the castle of the king of the demons, isn't it? This isn't a resort.

Sleep well, human.

Solomon

"You're just looking cute on purpose now, aren't you?"

Oh well! Looks like he's stuck here for now. Too bad. He'll smile, put an arm around you, kick his feet up, and settle in for the long haul. Hopefully you're able to get a good, solid nap in.

Most likely, you both will. He'll pass out too within ten minutes, give or take.

Simeon

"Oh- shh. There, there."

Well, if you aren't adorable... You must be so tired. He's glad you feel so at ease with him that you let yourself fall asleep, and you certainly look cute, but he's also a little concerned that you're this tired. He'll patiently wait for you to wake up. Then he'll make you some tea and gently remind you to take better care of your health.

Luke

"Eh...?! Hey! ...WAKE UP!"

How tired are you?! You need to get better sleep! Sheesh, you need to be more careful too. You almost crushed him.

tuesday again 10/4/22

tis the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness or whatever. all five categories are filled this week which is a fruitful occurrence in and of itself

listening Fresh Laundry by Allie X. this came up on shuffle and gave me pause, bc this is a album i had on loop very early in the video games job while still figuring out how everything worked. i remember the hope and the routine of quick-marching down to the pond down the road (not really down the road. it was like a good third of a mile) to stare at some water for a bit before hustling back home and eating some soup and staring at excel some more with this album on loop until it got shuffled out of rotation in favor of more instrumental stuff.

and now, more than a year later, i have this album on loop again as i start a new job where i stare at excel a lot and eat soup. hope this one works out better.

what a cool personal journey kay! what the fuck is this song tho!

indie verging on synthpop? i rarely listen to albums all the way through but this one flows together nicely without big jumps in mood. this isn't to say it's flat or predictable, but some Thought has been put into how songs begin and end and the order they come in, which i appreciate. she's a soprano with a range and a tonal quality that isn't icy or cold, but it feels ice-smooth. not the soda fountain ice or the ice cube trays in your fridge, but the very clear and almost bubble-less kind of ice.

I want to wake up (I want to wake up) To friends calling (friends calling) I think I've had enough (think I've had enough) Of hard mornings (hard mornings)

reading really waffled on whether to include this article my sister sent me or not bc the style and formatting are profoundly fucking irritating but realized it let me talk about my house so here we are

blackbird spyplane is partially cranky about the tsunami of bland round edged squarespace storefronts selling knockoff shit, making it much harder to find people who Are selling weird neat shit, and loosely comparing the rise of this neutered online space to the irl demise of the Un-Grammable Hang Zone. the thesis of the article may be found in the image below.

so this got me thinking, as articles sometimes do: uh-oh! do i do that?

i am noted for my power, my beauty, and the eclectic nature of the Items i dredge up out of estate sales. i do like a weird fuckin object. perhaps my home is grammable for a very specific audience.

however, my current version of the evil lair rejects a large part of the UGHZ thesis bc it is not a hangout zone at all. i am a chronically ill adult living alone and everything is precisely arranged for my personal maximum comfort and convenience. eg the plant shelves and the plants on the floor look like shit but are really easy to water. the water change buckets and sipon directly under the fishtank also look like shit but make remembering to do water changes really easy. the recycling bin on a chair in the kitchen looks stupid as hell but makes me actually take the recycling out bc i do not have to lean down and pick up a large heavy milk crate directly off the ground, which hurts.

the above is a touch more defensive than i usually write these things. partly bc i find the apartment therapy instagram feed irritating as fuck and the merest whiff of association makes me want to jump out a window, weird lamp in hand.

however, there is a world of difference between "a space tightly curated for your personal taste" and "a space intentionally designed to appeal to the broadest possible audience, diluting itself into nothing in the process". so i'm probably fine actually, but it did take up an entire hour's walk while i thought about it so it was worthy of the reading slot this week

-

watching Genius Party (2007, dir many people) and Genius Party Beyond (2008, also dir many people). these are compilations of shorts from japanese Studio 4°C. these are some fun side projects where some titans of the fuckin industry got to play around for a little bit.

i like anthologies and package films and compilations and collected short stories. i would much rather something exist in the world as a tantalizing snippet than it never exist at all or be stretched thin to feature or novel length. something something you're always going to find SOMETHING compelling in a huge lot of ideas in various styles thrown at you like that, something something rough sketches always look more pleasing than clean linework to me bc the eye picks which line it finds most pleasing and fills in a lot on its own.

i thought about writing another paragraph about how letterboxd has changed my habits bc i like Making The Number Go Up, so i am more likely to watch several ninety-minute films over a weekend rather than one epic, even though a lot of epics are films i would like to watch, but this post is already really long.

my favorite short out of the bunch: Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo) directed Baby Blue about two friends who go to the beach and it made me cry my fuckin eyes out. you can watch all of Genius Party for free on tubi rn or (depending on your american library) kanopy. OR this 480p version on youtube

playing Dredge is an indie horror fishing RPG. it's got a hot mechanic that fixes your boat and that's all i really care about but i GUESS we can talk about the actual game mechanics or whatever

this is the body of a farming sim with the brain of an RPG. the daily cycle of go out and fish and investigate shit and scurry back to dock before dark/the Madness overtakes you is very familiar. so far, the slow-paced explore/economy/talking to people loop is filling the failbetter games' sunless sea shaped hole in my heart.

the demo itself only lets you putz around for about ten in-game days, which is a good choice bc it left me wanting much more. it's very polished, and the framework for a lot of the big upgrade mechanics is There but not in this demo (also a good choice). you can play it until uhhh the tenth as part of the NEXT fest demos. if you like it, add it to your fuckin wishlist. steam stats are a thing that can actually make or break a new game, bc u need a certain number of wishlists to bubble up through the algorithm and actually get presented to users in New & Noteworthy.

i really really like the fishing mechanic despite hating every fishing minigame i've ever come across, bc you will catch things without "winning" the minigame it'll just take longer. the minigame is a little bonus if you're impatient. generally this game is quite polished and has a lot of quality of life stuff one might expect from a farm sim.

something i am worried about, bc it's not really touched on in the first ten in-game days, is the occult/horror aspect. is this game going to subvert all the worst parts of lovecraft et al or will it sort of blindly embrace them? who could say. the team is very new, although at least two of them have worked in games before.

cautiously optimistic about this one lads

-

making leek and potato soup with bacon and green onions AND the chicken stock i made several weeks ago. i was too impatient to let it cook down as far as i wanted, so it's not as chunky and thick as i would like (also if i were making it again i think i would halve the amount of milk, even though i doubled the recipe).

other changes include: no chicken, bc i couldn't be bothered, and four small leeks bc if i did not use the whole bunch at once i would never have used them. didn't like the fennel seeds very much, not really sure what i would put in their place bc Wow is this thing bland. i feel like either you go whole hog with herbs de provence or you go more of a curry route with ginger/lemongrass/turmeric and friends.

no pics bc it is genuinely impossible to take good food pics in this kitchen and i cannot be bothered to go outside and like Stage a pic.

Too many places are STERILE and TORCHED — let’s make them COOL and FUNKY

In praise of Un-Grammable Hang Zones (U.G.H.Z.)

Right now, in year ~15 of the fetish for “clean lines” and “understated elegance,” I wanna hang for hours in a FRUMPY, MISSHAPEN, INVITINGLY INELEGANT place like Jump’N Java instead, during which time I would never even think to take out my phone and let the feed know I was there because, despite being packed with vibey curios, the place is way too much of a CHAOTIC VISUAL HODGEPODGE to “work” in the form of an iPhone pic on social media … There is one major flaw with U.G.H.Z — the food and drinks on offer typically range from passable to abysmal !

Your clothes are haunted by beautiful ghosts

3. Relatedly, clothes can be haunted by ghosts — in a way that is not spooky but tight — and rocking them can be séance-like. Memories of your past selves get woven into the threads of a favorite t-shirt you wore throughout college or a rainshell you wore in the backcountry. The spectral afterglow of other people’s lives lingers in secondhand pieces, too, which is why it feels so transportive when you buy, e.g., a secondhand jacket and find an old plane ticket or handwritten shopping list or letter tucked in the pocket. The pockets can be empty, too, and the s**t can still be full of ghosts.

Cool clothes should have credit sequences

The pleasures of "C.R.E.D.I.T.S. Mindset" Collaboration Respecters Enjoy Deeper Immersion in the Tightest S**t !! The answer to 3. is illustrated nowhere better than the way N*tflix (and other streaming platforms) make it actively hard to NOT skip end credits these days… They play a few pro forma seconds, then suddenly the window minimizes and the algorithm tries to serve you up some other st INSTANTLY, on autoplay... Just appreciating the visual representation, as name after name goes by, of the fact that MAD PEOPLE besides the director, writer & actors worked to make the thing I just watched — a collectivist counterbalance to romantic yet pernicious myths of INDIVIDUALIST GENIUS that can make us focus disproportionately on “numero uno” at the expense of fellowship & communitarian obligations! (This also manifests in a cool way when you see a filmmaker’s “Thank Yous” and get a little glimpse of the “social architecture” of a film’s making, like, “Dmn I didn’t know Joanna Hogg was homies with Martin Scorsese, that’s tight.”) ... Reading mad fashion magazines — which Erin has been doing since she was a COOL KID conducting adolescent jawn-recon — and whipping yr eye back and forth between the pics and the GUTTER CREDITS, where the info on designers, models, stylists, photographers, etc. is tucked. C.R.E.D.I.T.S. Mindset can be seen in opposition to marketing — because shining a light on otherwise unacknowledged labor can help reveal endemic exploitation (or, say, wildly inflated pricing). But it can abet marketing, too, for worse or better, whether via mockable clichés (“tonight’s chicken was raised 22 miles north of here by a farmer named Carol whose grain-free feed consists of …”) or by explaining and justifying something’s relatively high price tag by letting you know how, e.g., a pricey artisan jawn’s making was materially different from that of a cheap s*tty mass-market jawn.

By “blessed uninterrupted closed system” what we mean is that:

Nothing entered the room that wasn’t already there (e.g., no hot takes, no tweets, no IG stories, no “streaming content”) and

Nothing went out (no data for advertisers to vacuum up, no fuel for the algorithm to ingest, no performed versions of ourselves for the timeline to behold.) This was like that baller ROOM OF ONE’S OWN s*t Virginia Woolf was talking about, baby… And g-d dmn, it felt great!!

CINNAMON I NEED TO. GRAB YOU BY THE SHOULDERS RN i just listened to chimera for the first time and i can already hear the rock version in my head. i want mikoto to cover (not) a devil so bad, but i would be Shocked if he doesnt cover chimera first

oo yeah i think (not) a devil would also be an amazing choice for mikoto! it's a bit of a shaky pick but personally i was really hoping for amane to cover (not) a devil to go to amane. i mean, obviously for the religious theming but also for a few of the lines!

The maliciousness of the quote, “It’s for your own good” Salaries exploited by the line, “Your dreams will come true” Ah, highly addictive things always hide a trap My soul’s been reaped, how nasty, nasty

i felt like it'd be a sneaky way for her to mock the idea that her guilty vote was for her own good. oh, you wanted to play savior for me? how's that going for you? :)

but also as a reflection of how her cult treated her. "you're a horrid child who went against our wishes. you'll have to be punished in order to cleanse your soul. it's for your own good."

i also think the salaries line could reflect how amane and the other children in her show were to scam people out of their money...! likely under the guise they're "making dreams come true" what a load of hogwash!! amane i'm sorry baby you're only just a punching bag for the true villains of milgram!!!!!

theres also amane's dilemma about whether she's a "good girl" or not. now that she wasn't forgiven, is she (not) a devil? the song could be a reflection of the "council of amane" debating amongst themselves whether she deserving of her punishment.

Not a Devil, I’m not a Devil Oh no I’m dead, I’m gone, aaa Though you may doubt me, though you may hate me Smile and play the part, Angel Angel

Whaaat! [BAD NEWS] [BAD NEWS] [BAD NEWS] [BAD NEWS] (who cares~) Whaaat! Grotesque Whaaat! Not grammable Not a Devil, I’m not a Devil, Oh no I’m dead, I’m gone Even if I turn into a true Devil, “Bless you” Both Devil & Angel? That’s Archangel level stuff

#for the third anniversary can we PLEASE get a karaoke stream where we all vote on what songs the seiyuu's sing #if only so i can hear mikoto sing every single deco song that was picked. there's too many good ones and it's unfair otherwise! #꒰ ☁️ ꒱ ── warm regards‚ cinnamon

[spurgie-cousin]

You will never hear the end of this topic! I can’t resist the urge to chime in. As an immigrant I am so delighted by the meal train. What an amazing way to actually help. I had my first baby a few months ago and people brought us meal after meal it was amazing. However gift cards are a pain. Most places won’t let you pay online with a gift card, which defeats the purpose of helping post c section. But guess what? I am so grateful Anyway. People went out of their way to help. How nice.

1 & 2. They are so great!! I'm so glad you got to experience one after having your baby I'm sure it was such a big help 😊 participating in them for new moms is my favorite.

3. Very good point lol, a plate of casserole is not very 'grammable😔

A couple of homebrew weapons I drew up and painted for my D&D game! Top is the anti-material rifle and bottom is the pro(grammable)-material rifle. I maaaaay have been just a littttle bit inspired by some Destiny weapons. Both are made from special obsidian and held together by celestial magic and eldritch magic, respectively. Stats below the "Keep reading":

Anti-Material Rifle

Ammunition Range 120/360 Reload 1 Misfire 3 Two-Handed

2d8 piercing 1d8 necrotic

This weapon deals an additional 1d8 necrotic damage against constructs.

This weapon has 9 charges. Instead of firing this weapon at a creature, this weapon can expend charges to store one of the following materials at a time:

5 cubic feet of water (cost: 0 charges)

5 cubic feet of loose dirt (cost: 0 charges)

1 loose object able to fit within one's hand (cost: 0 charges)

Up to 5 square feet of wood (cost: 3 charges)

1 loose object weighing no more than 30 pounds. (cost: 3 charges)

5 square feet of stone (cost: 6 charges)

1 loose object whose dimensions do not exceed 5 ft. in any dimension (cost: 6 charges)

1d6+3 charges are regained at dawn.

Pro(grammable) Material Rifle

Ammunition Range 120/360 Reload 1 Misfire 3 Two-Handed

2d8 piercing 1d8 force

If the target of an attack with this weapon is a construct, it instead causes the target to regain 1d4+4 hit points.

Instead of firing this weapon at a creature, this weapon can be fired at an unoccupied space within range. The point must be touching the face of a solid object such as the ground or the side of a tree. When fired in this way, you may place the item stored as a charge from the Anti-Material Rifle at this point. This item is effected by gravity as normal. You may also fire this weapon to create a 5 ft cube of crystal at a space within range. This point must also be touching the face of a solid object. The crystal will shatter if it takes any damage. If the Pro-Material Rifle is fired in this way again, the previous crystal loses its integrity and immediately shatters. If placed underneath a creature, the creature is raised 5 feet by the cube, unless it would crush the creature, in which case, the crystal shatters before any damage is dealt to the creature.

A vacation is very lively and enjoyable when going with family, friends, and cousins. But at times, it goes differently than planned.
