hot artists don't gatekeep
I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.
Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.
Homie gonna share this
autism is not a horrible disease that ruins lives and tears apart families. elon musk, who is autistic and an evil billionaire who doesn't pay taxes, has ruined thousands of lives, and whose family hates him, is a statistical outlier adn should not have been counted
I want to get a job at the strip club near my house and then I want to see how far I can push pretending to be an actual irl vampire. if you're unfamiliar with sex work you need to have the context here that there is no stupider person on earth than the average hetero male sex work customer and that this idea has a nonzero chance of actually no-joke seriously convincing more than one of them and I just think that would be funny
so there's a local craftsman named Victor who has been making customized vampire fangs out of real dental resin for something like 30 years. I got my first fangs from Victor when I was 13, and he had already been making fangs for and unknown number of years before that. he's a legend. every time I lose a pair (they don't deteriorate, they last forever) I go back and get another pair, and he has never raised the price ($60) even though his profit margin has to be tiny by now. the fangs look incredible. better than the majority of vampire fangs you see in major Hollywood movies. and because they are molded directly onto your teeth (this process is unpleasant and smells really bad) they snap on and off, and do not require glue, and are incredibly secure. you can absolutely bite things with them. in fact he has a little info sheet specifically telling you NOT to do this because people immediately do and end up hurting themselves or others. I consider them a last resort personal defense item frankly. you can bite holes in tin cans, and I have
anyway all this is to say I think I could pull it off and since stripping is mostly about suffering through intense boredom while the worst men on the planet treat you like an unpaid focus group I think it would be extremely entertaining
Oh G-D you must do this. And tell me stories.
I also have fangs from Victor, who is indeed a top-tier fang smith. I’ve seen fang caps by other artists, and they just don’t compare. Ones by Victor look real.
Does Victor have like. An online shop or something? Can I get teeth measurements from my dentist and send them to him? Does he have a Facebook page or something?
the process is that you go to meet Victor at a place he has set up to make fangs that day. he used to have semi regular hours working out of Gargoyles in the U District (and may still, you'd have to call them) and he also appeared at most local conventions and made fangs out of his hotel room. he takes about three clients at a time and has a system where one client will be waiting for their resin to cure while he works on the next person. he keeps up a jovial patter the whole time, like someone's slightly inappropriate uncle (he's not creepy he's just a goof).
there's a binder with pictures in it where you can pick which style of fangs you want. he can do a full set of shark teeth, double canines like the Interview movie, upper + lower canines, or just the basic set of uppers (most common). more teeth = more expensive, base price is $65 according to the gargoyles link.
he has to match your tooth color, fit your fangs onto your teeth, wait for the resin to cure, and then he will use a dental drill to file the fangs down smooth and take off all the extra resin, and make them as comfortable for your bite as he can. the fangs will interfere with your normal teeth bite alignment. the drill never touches your teeth but he does have to put his fingers in your mouth a bit. this is uncomfortable and the resin smells bad but it's tolerable and he has never ever made me feel uncomfortable about contact or physical proximity to him (obviously you have to sit close). on the inside of the right fang he puts a dot of red coloring so you know which fang is which. he will ask you how they feel and if there are any snags or pointy bits, and also ask if you would like the fangs to be sharp or if you would like him to file down the tips a little. if you leave them sharp they will poke the inside of your mouth and hurt until you grow some protective calluses (I always leave them sharp because I'm a psychopath)
the fangs have FULL warranty and free repairs. if anything goes wrong with them he will fix them or remake them free of charge. he is a true craftsman
the last time I got fangs from him was about six years ago so this information is not current. Victor is an old school dude and afaik does not do business on Etsy or anything, he's almost entirely word of mouth and I think maybe slightly on Facebook but I'm not sure.
he's very hard to Google because apparently now there's a tech guy named Victor Fang lol
anyway I'll try to post pics later, the fangs really are exceptional and who knows how long he's going to be making them. I think he's got to be approaching 60 years old now. I wonder if he ever takes on apprentices
EDIT: IMPORTANT: you WILL have a lisp until you have practiced speaking with your fangs in for a few hours!!! do not plan to wear your fangs anywhere serious and talk to people with them in until you have worn them at home long enough to fix your lisp lol
edit 2: you can't do any of this remotely, it has to be done in person. sorry to all non Seattle goths, it's just a factor of them being custom fit and custom color matched to your actual teeth
So I still have the card from him (after a quick Google this appears to be him, do let me know if I am mistaken). Again I got this in either 2024 or 2023, but according to the Gargoyles Statutory site the phone number is correct so I assume the email is correct too.
thank you this is a great addition! i always have so much trouble looking him up.
Reblogging this because @notquitebilateral came through with contact information for Victor!
One other thing to know: Victor custom mixes the dental resin to match your teeth. So if you’re someone who doesn’t have blindingly white Hollywood teeth, your fangs will still blend in!
sometimes i feel like im climing up this incline again alone but thankully sisypus and the itsy bitsy spider and here with me
holy shit is that kate bush
this is so cute and sweet but the song choice combined with the silverback’s incredible run (which all bipedal gorilla runs are) is making me lose it

Hey kid you want a job?
Great get online and go to a job board. Indeed, Linkedin whatever. Now you're gonna search for a role that's in your city, fits your qualifications, and doesn't seem like a bad time.
See that easy apply button? Don't hit it they just throw those in the trash. Now you're gonna want to go to the company's website and check their careers page.
Oh? That job doesn't exist anymore. Cool go back to the job board and find another one.
Great you found another job, you're on the company's career page and the job exists!! So you're going to need to make an account on the career page website. They're using Workday, the same site as the last job you applied for? Who cares? You need to make another account for THIS job's workday page.
Now you're going to upload your resume. That'll autopopulate about 15 boxes with everything on your resume, except formatted wrong and with tons of errors. So just go through and painstakingly check the dates on all of that and rewrite everything you already laid out in an aesthetically pleasing format on your resume.
Ok time for the cover letter, explain why this specific job and company are deeply important to you. You love their mission statement and wouldn't even laugh if their ceo was gunned down in the street. You'll really want to reiterate the things you just spent the last 20 minutes filling out on the resume section
(Remember to include language from the job description, people who work in HR are lower than dogs and they need patterns or they get confused.) Write about a page, but hey don't sound too desperate or robotic this is where they judge your character!
Maybe add your portfolio site at the end here, who knows if that helps no one has ever clicked mine haha.
Anywayyy time to hit apply! Congrats! You'll see that confirmation email come in and you should be getting the rejection letter in about 2 weeks. Unfortunately your resume didn't have the right buzzwords and the AI auto rejected you :(
Time to start again and try not to kill yourself!
Listen to me
Listen very closely
The above is exactly why half of my friends come to me, and cry they're suffering, and I get to bestow my job hunting knowledge on them. I love this shit, it's a game.
For credentials my fastest job hunting time has been 1 week. I searched for 1 week, got an interview, and was hired within a week. My slowest was 1 month, while out of work, while telling ALL my interviewers that I quit my work without notice (I was testing my interviewers to see how shocked they'd get when I'd tell them why, anyone who wasn't shocked I would tell them at the end that I will keep them in mind (not)). My entire average is 2-3 weeks.
Firstly, what you're gunna do is pick a job sector. You're gunna pick a few of these by the end, but for now pick one. Maybe you wanna do bookkeeping, maybe you wanna do something in doggy daycare. Maybe you're a sous chef. Idk! Figure out what abouts you want first. Do not apply to anything yet. You're gunna look at the job description, I've picked out a few for bookkeepers below.
Now what you're gunna do is you're gunna look for "buzz words", or rather words that are gunna appear commonly and indicate the tone for that job. I've highlighted some, but not all in my examples below
Just look at that snout at how similar those descriptions are!
Now that you've got your buzzwords, you're gunna slap those babies into your resume! You see, since your resume is usually read by a computer first, you're gunna trick the computer into giving it to a person. Really what the computer is scanning for is how similar your resume is to the job description. Remember your bullet points, and to keep it short, try to only have 3 to 5 bullet points per job:
- Processed over 500 invoices a day in an efficient and accurate manner
- Curated reports for management review by utilizing available data
- Monitored and recorded over 100 submissions each day increasing accuracy by 50%
These are some great, made up examples I pulled from those buzz words. You might notice I added some numbers into there. That's something you'll wanna try and note for yourself, how much of something you can do, how accurate, how much efficiency you increased, these look GREAT when your resume gets past the computer and is moved in front of a real person.
Now you have your sector-based resume with lots of buzzwords. This is great! Now for the easy part. You're gunna channel your inner "IDGAF" And you're gunna send that to every listing you like on indeed. Filter for "Apply on Indeed" and spam that shit. Sometimes you gotta answer a few extra questions, but if they give me more than 5 quick questions I trash the submission and move on.
Don't waste your time jumping through hoops, streamline it for yourself and use the same methods companies are using. Push MASSIVE amounts of average quality resumes out. The more opportunities taken = the greater the chance of success. For every opportunity taken you've now pitched a chance of success, for every resume you cannot submit because you're piddling around on their stupid website or answering 50 interview questions online, you send out a 0% chance of success.
So go, try this, and see how it works for you.
Some additional things to consider:
- Add random shit in your resume, I added my "Board Game Club" (BDSM group) into my resume for hobbies and discussed how I got my start using sparklines there
- Never underestimate the flair of a little Clipart fleur-de-lis or something on your resume. Never put colored Clipart, but a little floral or swirl design located somewhere nice makes it stand out
- if you don't have a degree that doesn't mean they won't pick you, twice now I've come to a job without a bachelors and being honest that I was only getting an associates before I think of my next steps
- Embellish, do not lie. Jargoning your job description to make it sound cool and professional is GREAT. Do not give me a resume saying you can use CNC machinery when you've only used a 3D printer. Just tell me you know how to program and manage a 3d printer and want to learn CNC machinery.
- Keep. Your. Resume. To. Two. Or. Less. Pages. You don't need EVERY job, only the relevant ones, if your interviewer asks about the gap, tell them what job you had during that time (or if you wanna lie say you were taking college courses and were on a break, you dont need a degree to say you took courses) and that you only wanted to showcase the most relevant ones
- I'm serious on that last one I'll eat your fucking resume

There’s a total of like 6 steps to stir fry and I just found like 8 ways I’ve been doing it less than ideally. Thank you for this! I’m definitely making stir fry this week and I’ll be using this to guide me.

RIP Joann, now what?
I wanted to make a post I could copy and paste and or link when I see folks asking where to buy fabrics when Joann is gone. I sew a lot, generally between 100-200 items a year and I don't do it on a big budget. Stores are not in a particular order.
Notions:
Wawak.com - start here, mostly stay here. Wawak is a supplier for professional sewing businesses and have the prices that show it. I will not pay for gutermann Mara 100 anywhere else. I buy buttons, tools, thread, and most elastic here.
Stitch Love Studio - this is where I buy lingerie supplies https://www.etsy.com/shop/StitchLoveStudio?ref=yr_purchases
Fabric:
Fabric Mart - this is one where you want to sign up for emails and never buy unless its on sale. They run different sales every day and they rotate. Mostly deadstock fabrics but I buy more from here than anywhere else. Fantastic customer service and if you watch you can get things like $6 wool suiting or $4 cotton jersey. https://fabricmartfabrics.com/
Fabrics-Store - again, buy the sales not the full price. Sign up for the emails but redirect them to a folder because it is TOO MANY. They stock linen or good but not amazing quality. https://www.fabrics-store.com/
Purple Seamstress - This is where I buy my solid cotton lycra jersey. They have other things, but the jersey is what I'm here for. Inexpensive and very good quality. If you ask she will mail you a swatch card for the solids. https://purpleseamstressfabric.com/
LA Finch - deadstock fabrics with a fantastic remnant selection https://lafinchfabrics.myshopify.com/
Califabrics - mix of deadstock and big brands, easy to navigate and always seem to have good denim in stock. https://califabrics.com/
Boho Fabrics - good variety, nice bundles. I have also gotten some really great trims from here. https://www.bohofabrics.com/
Firecracker Fabrics - garment and quilting fabrics, really nice selection and great sale section. I've bought $5 yard quilting cottons here several times. https://www.firecrackerfabrics.com/
Hancock's of Paducah - Quilting fabric and some limited garment fabric. AMAZING sale section. Do not sleep on the sale section. This is my first stop when buying quilting fabrics. Usually the last stop too. Not particularly speedy shipping. https://www.hancocks-paducah.com/
Itokri - This is something a little different. Itokri is an Indian business with incredible traditional fabrics. Shipping to the US is expensive, but the fabric is so inexpensive it evens out. I generally end up paying like $30 for shipping. Beautiful ikat and block prints. https://itokri.com/
Miss Matatabi - this is a little treat. This isn't where you go to save money, but there are so many beautiful things in this shop. Ships from Japan incredibly quickly. https://shop.missmatatabi.com/
Lucky Deluxe - Craft thrift store, always has an incredible selection and fantastic customer service. I need to close the tab fast because I never go to this website without finding something I need. https://www.luckydeluxefabrics.com/
Swanson's - the OG of online craft thrift stores, but I find their website harder to navigate. https://www.swansonsfabrics.com
Honorary Mentions: I haven't shopped at these places yet but I have had them recommended and likely will at some point.
A Thrifty Notion - https://athriftynotion.com/
Creative Closeouts - https://creativecloseoutsfabric.com/ being rebranded to sewsnip.com on March 1 - quilting deadstock
Hawthorne Supply Co. - I just got this rec and I think I need to not look too closely or I'm going to slip with my debit card. https://www.hawthornesupplyco.com/
This is not an exhaustive list of everywhere you can buy fabric, or even a full list of where I shop. There are SO many options out there in the world. You also need to think outside the fabric store box. I thrift men's shirt fabrics for quilts and sheets for backing fabric. I don't do a ton of in person thrifting and my local stores don't get a lot of craft materials but every thrift store is its own universe and reflects the community it is in. Go out and find something cool.
Oh and final note: Don't shop at Hobby Lobby.
