For my cosplayer friends (and other people who sew) - if you are not aware of wash-away basting tape, it is basically miraculous. Dritz sells it as 'Wonder Tape', and I think Clover might too? I've got probably ten yards of Wawak's in this costume rn and it's saving me on stuff I can't pin
a person obsessed with french culture and media
call that a ouiaboo
Finally getting caught up on Frieren and we're laughing about how Ubel is 100% a D&D sorceror
Wizards who have spent their whole lives studying: what do you *mean* you just visualize and it happens? That's not how magic *works*
Sorceror: 🤷♀️ I just think "whoosh" and it goes, idk what to tell you
Magic and monsters are fine but I refuse to believe an adventurer is carrying a suitcase long distances 🤣
I like plenty of foods that just happen to be vegan but have never been impressed by the ones that are trying to fake non-vegan foods
I love to tell ppl about cashew apples and how cashews sometimes spontaneously combust
I need to start a new cosplay project but right now all I can handle is brainless sewing so I'm letting out a too-small kimono
Tell everyone you know

Lol I'm still not there. I am very half-assed about my mockups, I do only what's absolutely necessary and sometimes that bites me in the ass
Rewatching Superman 2025 and it occurs to me that if you're solar-powered it's pretty dumb to put your fortress near a pole. Because what if he had crashed there after his battle in winter? Gotta wait a few months for any sun... 🤣
The Cardiff Lions do an annual Drag Rugby charity match for children’s charities and it’s as beautiful as you imagined

Bobbin lace trim in progress
Hey gang turns out practice does work
Over the course of today I have managed to get to a point where I can have critical role in the background instead of just music
I still screwed up several times and I'm sure I missed a few smaller mistakes but I'm pleased
It is now a bit less witchcraft to me but yeah it will be a long time before I don't have to Concentrate Intently
I played guitar hero at a con with Wil Wheaton once

While I'm at my in-laws' for the holidays, finally broke out the bobbin lace kit I've had for ages.
Man I'm sweating 🤣 serious concentration needed, presumably until it becomes muscle memory. It's hard to be a beginner at something again 😅

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.
Oh shit I need to watch this. 1850s NZ gothic horror yespls

We need to go back to teaching Barbara Herrnstein-Smith's narrative versions essay, which makes the point that summaries are not a distilled basic story but are just another version of a narrative, subject to the same forces and motivations that shape the telling of any narrative.
Rewatching X-Men First Class and annoyed once again by how Hollywood consistently fails at vintage hair & makeup. 90% of the time either they don't even bother trying or they half-ass it.
I get that often actresses may not want to cut their hair to the length needed, but that's what wigs are for.
I have a feeling people won’t like him but he’s probably one of my favorites so far 🥹🐟

Lol in Toronto ppl just side-eye you
One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.
