I don’t think it’s even a question who I’m talking about. I literally tag you and mention you in any way shape or form I can. Can’t believe in a couple days it’s going to be one year since we met which you ca bet Imma do a whole other separate post about 🤭 The story is truly beautiful as well as such good foreshadowing of how perfectly insane the two of us are.💖💖💖

Oh god i’m not making much sense. I’ve been thinking all day about what I want to say and there doesn’t seem to be the right string of words that accurately convey just how much you mean to me and how happy I am to have you in my life. But i’m going to try my best. 💚💚💚

Thank you for being born and continuing to be in this world. I don’t think I would ever be able to imagine one now without you in it. I was never one to really believe in fate until you came in my life. I think we both needed each other in that part of our lives and I’m just so grateful to have you. I feel so loved and warm constantly now.

I had my amazing family my lovely partner but I was missing a good friend. I think i’m just a bit too greedy but hey I glad I am because now I can honestly say I think my life is perfect now. I’m completely content. Thank you for accepting the role of my being my best friend forever and ever. It feels so weird to know that you are just as happy about that as I am.

I guess that’s what spending like 4-6 hours every day when we can just talking will do to you huh? I can already hear your voice in my head responding to all the things you say. Do you know you have the most beautiful laugh? It makes my heart soar every time I hear it which thankfully due to my incredible humor is quite often.

It’s been one of the best years of my life. I never would have found the courage to be as online as I am now start posting even the little bit I do now. But you give off just a sense of assurance and confidence in me that I don’t think I’ve ever told you how much I appreciate.

My gosh my head is running all over the place, so much I want to say and I’m jumping all over the place. But I think the main point here is thank you and I love you. As much as one bro can love another bro. I hope next year I can actually properly spend it with you.

Ok you texted me that you want to wordle and I do agree or three month streak must live on. But also have these pictures for some fun sentimentality.

The two “irl” pictures is the day we first met in person!! Replaced of course with some totally high quality drawings I didn’t just slap together. The each one is hilarious because it was actually a candid. And it was just me and bro having the biggest goofiest smiles as we were drawing our Bills in the sand. My gosh we must have drawn at least a dozen 🤣🤣🤣

The one at night was how we watched the Hannibal finale!! It was my first time for them I think they’ve gone through Hannibal maybe 5 times??? Possibly more. But it was truly an experience to be camped out under the stars and hearing the waves crashing as we’re watching the finale scene 😭😭😭 Life changing

And GUYS LOOK AT ALL THE COOL STUFF BRO LET ME HOLD!!! I get the most gracious honor to home these amazing prints and hand made work. It’s still crazy to me that I am personal friends with the coolest guy on the internet. Literally brought the espresso coffee machine au and everyone’s favorite little computer bill to life with just paper and glue!!!😭😭😭 Most talented guy in the world💖💖💖

Oh and when we hanged out two days ago. Ong we actually forgot to take a picture together we suck. But we walked around an art museum and did water color together 🥰🥰🥰 A bajillion points to whoever can guess who’s is who 🤭

And the big reveal if you didn’t know whose birthday it was from all the lovely hints from earlier.

🥁🥁🥁

ITS @keepit6feetunder !!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Happy birthday bro bro Imma post this so I don’t keep you waiting for wordle any longer. You better have not gotten to sleep already it’s only 9pm don’t play with me.

a 360 degree view (or as close to it as i could get) of every room in the mystery shack all in one convenient post!

some notes before we begin: i've structured this so you will always be turning to the right, i've excluded things you can easily reference from one image (like soos' break room), i've excluded hallways, and i've excluded the museum (it was way too confusing)

@joonboree #was the ballroom not the museum or the gift shop? I sort of assumed it was one of the normal rooms cleared out and decorated

good thought! i suspected it might be too. however, a few things to note that make the ballroom a unique room: the number of doors, the split-level staircase, the fireplace, and the architectural features.

the doors are the easiest place to start: the ballroom goes out the 618 door, the gift shop goes out the gift shop door, and the museum goes out the museum entrance door. the ballroom has a total of 3 doors; we know one goes out the 618 door and the other goes into the house-portion of the shack. this leaves one unaccounted for.

the ballroom and gift shop can't be the same room, because the 618 door and the gift shop door are on opposite sides of the house. if they were to be the same room, the shack would have one central room bisecting it, which we know isn't true. additionally, the mystery shack is an A-frame with an addition, and the addition is off-center. if they were the same room it would bisect the house and be S-shaped, which we, again, know isn't true.

it's possible that it's the same as the museum, and it's just one large room that takes up 1/4-1/6 of the floor plan. this could work, esp as it's supported by ford's bullshit floor plan:

assuming the R&D room is the ballroom/museum. you can see there is an exterior door to the left of the room, an interior door to the right of the room, and an exterior door at the bottom of the room. these could be the 618, hallway, and museum entrances respectively. there also appears to be a set of stairs at the top of the room, which could be the split-level staircase.

however, looking back to the room, we see the stairs point towards the 618 entrance, not the interior hallway door, as suggested by fords diagram. meaning the stairs on the floor plan would need to be turned 180 degrees.

okay, so doorways and location support our theory, even if the stairs don't. let's examine the defining features of the ballroom now: the fireplace and architectural elements.

fireplace: we don't see enough of the museum to rule this out. however, this (and the rhino head taxidermy) actually made me briefly suspect the ballroom could be the same as the parlor, but the number of doors and split-level stairs killed that theory. it's more likely that ford had the materials to build similar fire places in different rooms and stan has two rhino heads.

architecture: the museum has many more features than the ballroom does. the ballroom is a single room with a few framing support beams and a skirting. the museum, however, is at least two rooms, has support beams in the center of the room, and looks far less stable. they also have different walls.

the last thing to note is that the museum and gift shop are clearly connected, which brings us back to the first problem.

given all of this the most i think can be said about the ballroom-museum hypothesis is that maybe it was one room while ford was building it, but stan haphazardly divided it for whatever reason. given that the R&D room is surrounded by a hallway, it's possible stan also extended the hallway to meet the gift shop when he was putting in the secret entrance to the portal room (as we can see the hall terminates at the "top secret" entrance on ford's floor plan). EDIT: no that's not possible because then the museum entrance would be next to the vending machine

@cthoseris theres a layout i like over on reddit. for some reason the resolution tanked a few months ago, so ive been thinking of recreating it with more details added. there are also tons of other versions online, i think someone here on tumblr recently took a crack at it

Tea is quite lovely and doesn’t do any of that 👆Huge shout out to my drink that actually soothes sore throats settles well in my stomach and you know doesn’t kill my intestines.
