continuing to chug along on skuntank, I wish Iβd noticed the tail shape was wrong before I got this far but thatβs the cost of trying to use purple washable marker on dark jeans to mark out the outline
I strongly suspect that fill stitch becomes one of those soothing repetitive things once youβve got it nailed down. Itβs still tricky for me, but this is the most fill stitch Iβve ever done on a project and I can feel myself improving

it is unfortunate that there's no reason for most people to remember high school chemistry because the best analogy I have found for "the amount of energy that it takes me to initiate a task, which can be higher than the amount of energy it takes to actually complete the task" is "activation energy" and it's not precisely perfect but
yeah. and you can even include "thing that reduces the barrier to doing the task" as a catalyst/enzyme
anyway. unfortunately this does not actually clarify anything for the average person. but #ToMe it works
ppl are so annoyingΒ βyou canβt paint ur bedroom pink youβre an adultβ i did not spend my entire life waiting to grow up and control my life to paint my bedroom beige
I had a sales woman in furniture store try and tell me not to buy a hot bubblegum pink loveseat because she wanted me to βthink about the futureβ
Bitch, I am thinking about the future. I already got a hot bubblegum pink couch at home and now I need a loveseat to go with it.
when I first bought my house, I announced my decision to paint my bedroom purple. I had wanted a purple bedroom for thirty damn years, you fucking bet I was gonna have one now. My friends decided, for some reason, that I meant what one of them referred to as β14 year old girl purpleβ (through whatβs wrong with the colors a 14 year old girl chooses, I donβt know, even if theyβre not what I want as an adult). They didnβt believe me until they saw the color on the actual wall, even thought they helped me pick out paints. My mother, meanwhile, decided to get worried that if I painted my bedroom a βdark purpleβ, it would be βdepressingβ. As if, with an entire house to live in, I would spend all my time in the bedroom, which I wanted to be dark because I would be sleeping in there. In the damn dark.
I had like one, maybe two friends who were all like FUCK YEAH YOU PAINT IT WHATEVER COLOR YOU WANT, PURPLE BEDROOMS ARE AWESOME.
But when they actualy saw the finished bedroom, every single one of them was like, βOh yeah, thatβs really pretty.β (Well, the ones who supported me from the beginning were more like WOOHOO.)
And the moral of the story is: Fuck βem, please yourself. Either theyβll come around, or you can safely ignore every question of taste they opine about for the rest of time.
This applies to other adulting activities, too. When I was a kid, I decided that I wanted to have a wedding cake made of doughnuts. When I got older, I figured that I would be βmatureβ about it and get a traditional cake, which the older adults approved of. Now that Iβm 25 and facing the possibility of actual marriage in the near future, Iβm just like βmarriage is a social construct but it comes with tax & insurance benefits, so just give me that goddamn doughnut cake.β If they donβt like it then they donβt have to come to my wedding.

I would like you all to view my office. Iβm thirty and my rainbow room is awesome, people can fight me
Iβm thirty and my first big furniture purchase was a custom coffin shaped coffee table that opens up and is lined with purple crushed velvet. I would have loved it at 13 and I love it now. Growing up doesnβt mean you have to abandon what makes you happy.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
I have told this story before, and I will tell it again, because I am An Old now and repeating stories forever is our prerogative:
When I bought my house, the kitchen was multiple shades of dingy white. It was dismal, but it was now mine! So went to the hardware store for paint (well, several trips, painted swatches on panel, etc β Iβm very picky. But this was the final, βrealβ trip). It was a busy day in the paint section. There were at least five people behind me in line.
Now, remember, latex paint is slightly lighter and brighter when wet than it is when dry. And Iβd decided to paint my kitchen candy-apple red. The hardware store employee took my gallon off the Paint Jiggler and cracked it open to put a dab on the top, revealing the most incredibly deep pink, and behind me I hear the entire line of people say,
βOh my god.β
β¦in perfect chorus.
I did not realize up until that moment that shocking a crowd of strangers with my paint color choices was a life goal, but at that moment I felt an absolutely overwhelming sense of achievement.
This is the door to my garage. It used to be white. Live your best life.

Iβm 35. I have been told my place looks like maybe a LP fan lives there.
Not sure what they mean.
When I first moved into my place, I painted the spare room, that eventually became my office, lime green, the kind of lime green that glows down the corridor when I open the door - The colour was only available as an βaccent colourβ in the section of paints intended for childrenβs playrooms, and in the shop I got a lot of βOh your son will love this!β And from people I knew I got a lot of βOh well, youβre 21 now, youβre basically a teenager, this is a terrible idea, youβll hate it and need to pull out all the furniture to repaint it.β And I have to report that I am now in my forties and my office still looks like this, and it makes me smile every time I see it.
this is such a modern idea, too
not decorating trends; those have always existed. but the idea that color and decoration is inherently childish
this is the dining room at the Eustis Estate in Milton, Massachusetts, from 1878 (where I used to work, briefly). the walls are TEXTURED MICA SHIMMER on a green background. Adult Space For Adults!
A jewelry shop in Paris c. 1901. kids canβt buy jewelry!
who can forget the classic 1950s colorful bathroom? Iβm not a huge fan, but still! adult space! bright colors; decorative designs!
meanwhile βyouβre immature if you like Art Nouveauβ is a hot take Iβve really, seriously seen on this webbed site (only once, thank the gods). I donβt know who started this, but Iβm going to kill them
I think a lot of it stems from the ubiquitous Waterhouse prints that were sold on college campuses for 20 years. like why would I get a free pass if it were Monet instead Western culture is stupid. The entire point of being an adult is breakfast for dinner and cake for breakfast and dying with the most toys.
instantly decided to reblog when i got to GROWING UP DOESNβT MEAN YOU HAVE TO ABANDON WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY.
The examples of decorated homes above are both either modern or upper class, which makes it easy to dismiss because βsure the rich people have beautiful homesβ and βsure, modern middle-class people have lots of color in their homes.β
So hereβs two examples of traditional Norwegian farmhouse interiors. You know. The kinds of places peasants live in.
This type of painting is called βrosemalingβ and today you usually find it on, like, carved wooden bowls and such that are only used for decoration. But back two centuries ago, it was very common to find the interiors of homes covered in it, in projects that were painted little by little over the decades. Because itβs beautiful to look at, paint is the cheapest way of decorating your house, and what else are you going to do on the long winter nights when itβs too dark and cold to work outdoors?
But mostly, they did it because it made them happy, and it was beautiful.
Those old peasants were on to something, I think.

Velvet ant (Dasymutilla vestita)
Hemilepistus (crenulatus, aphganicus, reaumurii)
Coral Pink Sand Dunes Tiger Beetle (Cicindela albissima)
I think the velvet ant is my favorite, and the only one painted from life. Maybe I should've driven up to utah for the tiger beetles, next time!
All for sale on my Kofi! A little pricier than normal due to the material also if they don't sell they go well with my interior decor.
and the winner of superwholock is officially??? no one. we all lost. congrats team

I was informed this was a family establishment, but to my suprise my young sons were exposed to absolute DEPRAVITY! I wanted to take them to witness gambling and how to profit off it, but the females attending were FULLY CLOTHED! To add on to that, I heard the waiters mentioning the uni*n word in front of my children! I will not be returning.

Okay, real talk now. People love to tag male characters in posts about women, but this post is gonna take this seriously. Is there actually a canonically male character you believe is a trans woman? Or at least has made into a trans woman for a fanart or a fanfic? Excluding the ones canonically implied.
Sound off in the tags! Link to the fanart or fic if available. Do it. Give me the girls. Make more women.

Today's wasp of the day is the horse guard wasp (Stictia carolina)!
Credits: photo 1, photo 2
Wasps can be a horse's best friend! These sand wasps prey on biting horseflies and can efficiently take out whole swaths of them!
Interestingly enough, horses seem to have some awareness that these wasps are on their side as they'll neither swat at them or react to the sound of their loud buzzing as they would do with the similar sounding horse flies.
