recolored an old jason sketch 👍

#jason todd #basketball #saw the old version and went u know what i could do more to this so i did #i still think he should retire to conneticut and become an artisanal woodworker #i saw my uncle at a family function not too long ago and he showed me his woodworking pieces they were so good u guys. #anyways i think jason would love woodworking and carpentry #i know in my soul that mf watched holmes on homes as an impressionable child. and how its made never forget how its made and mythbusters.

Nico Rosberg (part-time shit-stirrer; full-time monaco-based girl dad; lifelong menace) definitely started that coming out of retirement rumor. If there’s one thing that psychotic little blonde man loves, it’s creating chaos purely for his own entertainment and to get Lewis Hamilton’s attention

#tbh he’s prob insane enough to un-retire #breaking: old man escapes nursing home to prove he’s still got it #weird little guy (affectionate) #nico rosberg

fuck timezones do you know how hard it is to talk to my friends when they have a different sleep schedule than me. i go to bed at 9pm and wake up at 6 to see notifications from my buddy from literally 5 in the morning. thats a one hour overlap of us both sleeping. there is not a time difference between us theres no reason for this shes just sick in the head and im a 75 year old man with a bedtime

#my other friend will be like hey if we’re hanging out tomorrow just call me when youre leaving so i get up #and itll be like. 2 in the afternoon. he’s literally nocturnal #i get a message while im getting all cozy in bed like hey man whats up because i go to bed as hes waking up because its a sick freak. #all my friends are vampires and im an old old man in my nightgown and sleeping cap with my little fuckin candelabra shuffling off to retire #for the evening #we hangout for one (1) hour and i go guys i am so sleepy i cannot do this #and they go nooo olease dont go to bed we miss you stay in the call one more episode pleeease and im already alseep #staying up past midnight is like medieval torture to me. its not ethical its not humane no human being should be forced to face such terrors

By the way, apropos of nothing, but when I say "heigho it'll go without these oddments" I am in fact referencing this panel in Tintin in the Land of the Soviets which 12-year-old me decided to adopt as a catchphrase before I knew what a meme was:

#so you need to imagine me performing the worst car mechanic job ever in the gayest way possible #i remain obsessed with this panel and i don't think i need to explain why #tintin truly one of the most guys ever. tintin in the land of the soviets like 10x worse than that to boot #it's such a deeply cursed book but in like a fun way y'know #anyways here is an unnecessary piece of lore to add to the old blog #with that i retire to writing my discussion post that was due 5 hours ago :') #perce rambles

arcana 🤝 walnut the crane (may her memory be a blessing): humans are the sexiest birds out there

I took Arcana and Eclipse to my friends' place, with Indie, for the year. Arcana and Eclipse look VERY similar if you don't know what you're looking for. Blackshoulder hens all look almost identical, they're ALL white with brown and black speckles.... you have to look at the tail feather color and overall shade of the speckles to tell color. But they're both purple BS pied, the only difference is that Eclipse is also white eye, but thankfully that means HER tail is white and Arcana's in brown. One of them, I think Arcana, was wearing a legband, idk where Eclipse's went.

But when asked how to tell the difference between them, instead of citing the leg band or the tail feathers, I said, Oh, you'll know. Arcana will be the one propositioning you every day, tripping you by squatting in front of you and generally being a nuisance. Eclipse will be on the far side of the pen going "if you so much as perceive me I will throw myself into this wall to get away from you."

#peafowl #Honestly not a fan of Eclipse's personality #she's always been very flighty and unwilling to interact with people at all #Which is a damn shame because she's gorgeous #But I might retire her to pet status after this year #or let her stay in NC with them if she gets on better there than she did here #my pets #arcana #eclipse #for anyone that doesn't know arcana was NOT hand raised #She wasn't even raised by me at all #I picked her up as a three or four month old from a guy who mass hatches birds #and truth be told I hope her babies with Indie have the best of both their personalities #even if the resulting babies will be absolute nuisances in every sense of the word

My wheel (Blithe) is still in a state of disrepair and I can't find anyone near enough to drive him into a doctor :(

There are a couple maladies that I just need another person more knowledgeable than myself to diagnose and most likely in person so I'm Big Sad.

I'm currently now looking for a 'new' but in better condition spinning wheel for active use.

If anyone in Southern Ontario, Canada has a wheel for sale or the contact info for a good Wheel Doctor in the area then I would be eternally grateful.

If you don't have any info, just sharing this post around would be a huge boon

The guys who fixed Blithe with this prosthetic spoke didn't actually affix it properly and just kinda...wedged it in place without glue or a wooden nail and it shows now.

The spoke will slide out of place and the fill they did to the crack is itself cracking.

The wheel has a wobble to it 😭

#ideally I would just get Blithe fixed up but wheelwrights are so few and far between #the one guy who worked with antique wheels has retired and now my whole Guild has no one to point towards for repairs #if it matters Blithe is an old flax wheel from 1889 #craftblr #spinning wheel #antique spinning wheel #restoration #help

[turrondeluxe]

Watched the movie today and all I could think about was this. (So spoilers but I’ll try to keep it vague)

Miguel seems to be looking for someone to blame. Someone he can take out and kill to make him finally feel like this wasn’t because of him. Some thing. Anything. To make him feel deserving again. He needs to take out all of these non canon things and people, to fix everything to make him feel better. Miles just happened to me the next thing on his list. Idk maybe I’m over analyzing. Sry about rambling your really cool. Hopefully this doesn’t sound out of character

ALSO I LOVE YOUR ART OF HIM and Mikey. I wanted to tell you cause I wanted to know your ideas and opinions (and your just cool so yeah) I’m rambling again..anyway byeeee

AA THANK YOU SM 🥰 AND NO NO WAIT. YOURE SO RIGHT I LOVE WHEN PEOPLE ANALYZE MIGUEL AS A CHARACTER BECAUSE HES SOO INTERESTING.

talking more abt him under the read more (spoilers!)

I think so too!!! Miguel is definitely Extremely guilt ridden by making a whole universe get destroyed because of him (also adding a parent grief depression to the mix). And we can totally see how he actually gets out of his way completely to help by the sheer fact that Miguel is the one who created the spidey society in the first place. He does that out of sheer guilt.

Miguel doesn't want anyone going through what he went trough if he can help it, because he Knows what someone would live trough if they are the sole reason a whole universe perishes because of them. And that's where the problem arises.

The problem is that everyone in there, Miguel included, have all grown emotionally numb to their own trauma and grief.

After seeing the pattern of All spideys losing someone beloved and important over and over and over again countless of times it just kind of makes it seem like that's something that Has to happen. Right?

So until then (before Miles appears where he shouldn't be) everything as it is works, because Miguel hasn't actually met with anyone that came close to what he did. He might be aware of other universes being in jeopardy and maybe even disappear completely but he's still disconnected from it because he decides which problems to intervene.

Until Miles appears out of nowhere in front of him. And I just Know he literally saw himself in Miles. He saw Miles being determined to stop how things Should go. He's seeing himself being selfish again right in front of him. So he decides to take it all out on Miles. All the blame and guilt and grief he feels about himself and how unfair it all is, he took it all out on Miles and blamed him for it.

Because there's truly no one else to blame but himself, but I think he's aware of that. And he doesn't want to forgive himself. at least not yet?

#im very normal about him so normal #I HAVE SO MANY THOUGHTS LIKE. HES SUCH A COMPLEX CHARACTER. #depressed old man my beloved #also i think being around spidey jokes 24/7 must be so fucking tiring lmao hes tired of them at this point #miguel you should retire and live with a certain turtle i think you guys would go along nicely and heal together and retake yall's silly be #ask #miguel o'hara

[thebreakfastgenie]

The thing about the 50s is we sort of recognize them as "modern." They didn't have the electronic technologies we have, but most of the familiar appliances were around, television was gaining traction, etc. But most of that was new in the 50s and the characters in MASH are all already adults in 1950. And a lot of those advancements lagged behind in rural areas, so if you think about Radar's family's farm or Crabapple Cove even in 1953 you have to keep that in mind.

#potter is also kind of a rural guy but he's career army so he's spent most of his adult life on base #and I imagine when he retires he'll make sure to have certain comforts #although I wouldn't be surprised if he forgoes certain modern things just cuz he's old #mashposting

[timecase]

I think there's unexplored potential in drawing humanformers/holoform Prowl as an attractive woman.

Think about it.

We know that he's considered conventionally attractive in Cybertronian standards, why wouldn't that carry over?

I guess thats something I need to draw someday. Prowl with actual boobs.

#humanformers #holoform #tf prowl #idw prowl #i think im just sick of seeing an old white guy as prowl #not that thats an objectively wrong way to draw him #it just doesnt make sense to my little monkey brain #like c'mon #he's a military officer not an overweight desk jockey banking on retirement

[figure-skating-avocado]

Super niche, but I just saw someone comment on something saying that they can't comprehend the fact that figure skating qualifies as a sport and as a figure it kind of just ticked me off? Of course the skaters seen on TV are really good at it and they make it look easy but the amount of work that goes into training that isn't seen in competition isn't as pretty as what's shown on the screen. There's a lot of off ice training for cardio and strength in the form of fitness classes and there's also the on ice cardio training which is running program parts in addition to the full run through. AND THEN, so it looks good, there's ballet, and on ice movement, and theatre on ice etc. etc. etc. which makes you THINK it's more of an artform but I've gotten so many bruises from falling that I don't think I can call it art, more like pain. Honestly figure skating is a dangerous sport, there's so many risks that can lead to injuries, I've a couple of friends who have gotten concussed from bad falls and I call myself very fortunate for not having gotten any bad injuries that cause me to take time off (knock on wood) but all of the gross stuff that happens out of the shiny costumes is what gives figure skating the right to call itself a sport.

#Obviously I mean no offence to the person who commented saying that #It's just that this has been sitting on my chest for a while and I needed to get it off #And I don't expect people to know what goes on at the rinks during training when we're not competing #Because it's not like it gets shown in competitions on livestreams and whatnot #But I really believe that figure skating deserves to be a sport #My friends and I actually had a discussion about how we believe it's one of the hardest #because most other sports are scored based off of time or getting an object into a certain target #whereas in figure skating (and gymnastics and probably synchro swimming(?)) #it's scored based off of how easy you make it look #the difficulty of the skills which you are doing #how well you execute what you are doing etc. #I don't think you can get points taken off in hockey or in soccer for falling #Do with it what you will #but I'm going to stand by my opinion #also #there is no romance with zamboni guys #most of them are old enough to be our parents or even grandparents #heck one of the arena guys at my rink retired #but then he came out of retirement to return to being an arena guy because he was bored at home or something #figure skating #And #figure skating and ice dancing are the same thing
