Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
Places people recently thought/asked if I was from:
Norway, Finland, France, United States, Canada, England, Ireland, Australia (?!), Italy, Austria, Argentina
people sure don’t know where I am from but they surely know I am White™️
So it's kind of a bad sign that my doctor poked me for less than 5 minutes and not particularly hard to check for pain in the infamous fibromyalgia spots and somehow left me incredibly sore even ~12 hours later huh?
I’m rewatching all the Alien movies in order (starting with Prometheus and Covenant) and I still CANNOT believe that everyone watched the FUCKING ANGRY NOKIA ANDROID™️ (David, not my bby Walter) DIRECTLY NOT LISTENING TO THEIR ORDERS ON LV-223 WHILE HAVING THE MOST SUSPICIOUS WEIRD DIALOGUE IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE and they didn’t even stop to think:
Like are you people completely brainless? You stupid. A few examples:
Shaw: “David do not open the door” ➡️ David proceeds to open the door immediately after she says it.
Vickers: “Let me watch your camera while you explore the chamber.” ➡️ David cuts her off as soon as he enters the chamber.
Shaw: *Almost dies because of that alien embryo inside of her, is barely standing on her feet, she’s mentally gone entirely.* ➡️ David: “I know you had it in you… Sorry that wasn’t the right thing to say.”
I DON’T WONDER WHY THEY ALL DIED IN THE SPAWN OF 3 DAYS OR SO. THEY ARE STUPID. HE WOULD DO ONE SUSPICIOUS MOVE ON MY WATCH AND HE WOULD BE DONE GOOFED, LOCK HIM IN THE FUCKING BROOMSTICK CABIN AND DON’T LET HIM OUT.
HE EVEN FUCKING DYED HIS ROOTS. THAT’S YOUR FIRST RED FLAG. 🚩
just did a presentation to my roommates where i rated my kins on how likely i’d get canceled on twitter for them and the GROAN that rung out across the entire room as kokichi ouma popped up for #1. i do not think they have been more disappointed in me than in that moment
they understand numbers don’t mean anything right? like billy still exists either way? harringrove isn’t just gonna stop being a thing? that’s not how this works? that’s not how this has ever worked?
i think the overlap between "watches gebs gebsart" and "watches martyn inthelittlewood" is exactly of nobody aside me, but this is such a stupid thought that i need to get it out of me
doc and gebs look very similar to each other?? like, remove the mask and put gebs in another outfit, you've got doc?
and i dont know which option is funnier, either gebs is secretly the leader of a group fighting an evil organization or doc is secretly a vtuber who draws and likes tanukis and coffee
a fact about me is that i was an early bloomer who hit puberty in elementary school and was immediately, obnoxiously horny in ways that were uncomfortable for everyone because no one is prepared for an elementary schooler with b cups and a deep fascination with movies where people get tied up. another fact is that because i was considered smart for my age in the ways that mattered, i just accepted all this as a single package, the many ways that i was not really a child the way other children were children but was instead a miniature adult. i was technically a child, but not really, as far as i was concerned. it also did not occur to me until around high school that i was fat, because i instead considered myself to be sturdy, to be buff, to be built like a tank.
so somewhere around middle school i am noticing the ways in which i am Not Like Other Girls, the ways in which i am not what society says a girl is and the ways that things marketed to girls do not appeal to me. i don't know how other girls dealt with this, but i very rationally decided that i was only technically a girl, in the way that i was only technically a child. so i looked at the things that did appeal to me, and that i did enjoy, and reverse engineered my demographic to decide that on a practical and functional level i was a middle-aged man. i had also gotten really hornily into wolverine because of the first x-men movie, and ended up reading a lot of comics, so as you can imagine the comic book version of wolverine who is short and built like a tank and older than he looks despite being for all intents and purposes a middle aged man really had some appeal to me.
there are idiots who say shit about how tomboys would be considered trans these days or whatever, but i can assure you that was not what was happening here. by middle school i already had to special order bras and i was fine with that because of the many weird fetishes i was developing, none of which can be blamed on the internet because i hadn't found that shit yet and also to this day you would have a hard time finding anything similar to the things i wrote in my secret notebook and immediately destroyed. the fact that i was technically a girl was vital to all this. media where there was a big reveal that some cool dude had been a hot chick the whole time was my shit. weird feral beast people who turned out to be hot women once they took a bath? fuck yes. i would never have cut my hair because that would have ruined my chances to take off a helmet and reveal that i had girl hair. at no point did i think i was anything but a girl, it was just that i was functionally a middle-aged man, who was a girl.
what this means is that i still liked all the things i already liked, such as leather jackets and comic books and anime and old stand-up comedy, but i also did extensive research on the other things i felt i should like according to the demographic i had assigned myself. i watched vh1's 'i love the 70s' with the air of someone trying to hide their amnesia, even though my parents were children in the 70s. i got into the beatles. i tried to get into cars for a while before accepting that i only liked the vintage car aesthetic and couldn't be fucked to know actual car facts. i wore nothing but cargo shorts and aloha shirts for a while, which didn't really stand out that much because it was middle school. i bought a fedora and became a libertarian atheist. i made plans to buy a motorcycle (i could not ride a bike).
i gave up on it after a while because quite frankly my titty situation meant there was never really going to be a big reveal that i'd been a girl the whole time. it was pretty obvious even with the cargo shorts. also the older of a teen i was, the more likely it felt that i could maybe get laid, except i could tell that was never going to happen as long as i kept wearing cargo shorts. it took longer to give up the fedora because it was leather and i wore it with my leather jacket and fingerless gloves, which i convinced myself worked a lot better after i'd gone full high school goth. i lived in the desert so you can imagine how well that worked out for me, smell-wise.
anyway that's how my female socialization went, i don't think it was particularly successful tbqh
Handbuilt porcelain with slip, overglaze, glaze, and gold lustre accents. Paint and lacquer detailing added post fire. Handsewn fool's cap and bells added post fire.
This mask is a part of a (loosely connected) mask series, all hand-built and fired using a range of different temperatures and techniques.
My favourite mask to date, Fool from Ghost in the Machine by the wonderful @venomous-qwille !! GITM is absolutely incredible and I cannot put into words eloquently how much I adore it and Fool so instead I made this mask! Hi!
My word was this mask a struggle to make. The mask itself is entirely one piece, and entirely porcelain!! That's right, those long thin rays are solid porcelain!! The eyes and tips of the blades are done in 22 carat gold lustre. All colouring save for the black and the satin sections of darker red on the face were done with only slips and underglazes. The red colour was correct without the paint, but I thought a contrast from the rest of the gloss would look nice :)
Made to scale, the mask measures 50.8x60.96cm without the hat, and 50.8x116.84cm with it! (20x24in without hat, 20x46in including hat). He is Large, but turned out absolutely lovely and I send my many many thanks to the kiln gods for producing him unscathed.
(naku & wall for scale)
(he's so big guys i have large walls (the top of my head is only slightly above the top of the bookcase beneath him) look at him at the wall it's nuts)
