TAKE 👏 TYLENOL AND IBUPROFEN 💊 TOGETHER! 🫶

seriously if you can take both of them individually, then take them together. Treat the combination as one medication. Evidence now shows that this combo works almost as well as Tylenol w/codeine. But only if you take them together, and not staggered. We used to tell you to stagger them! Don't! Evidence changes, and tomorrow makes fools of us all!

idk who needs to hear this rn but suffering is not noble. take the tylenol

Hi! I was looking at your blog and I absolutely adore your "new chapter" posts with the aesthetic boards and the formatting of the posts and I was wondering if you had any advice on how to make fic/chapter update posts look so good and appealing like that? Is there a template you use? A specific thing you keep in mind when formatting the link to make it flow?

I'm flattered that you enjoy those posts, but I'll be honest, there isn't a lot to it - I literally just type a bunch of nonsense content warnings and then stick the mood board in. 😬 If you're referring to the link to AO3, that's a preformatted thing that happens when you post a link to AO3. The next chapter | last chapter doohickey is just a manual link made in the Tumblr post editor, which is probably the most effort intensive and dumbest way to do it because I have to go back into each old chapter to edit it every time I post a new one. There isn't really a template aside just making sure it all looks roughly the same as all the others.

If I've completely missed the point and there's something else you're asking about, let me know!

being obsessed w a piece of media is so scary. what if my mutuals see how insane i go about it and think oh i gotta check out what this is about and then think it sucks and kill me with rocks. what if they hate my favorite characters

#the struggle is real #old mutuals please don't think I'm stupid and wrong for liking whatever I'm into right now #which is mostly gay and stupid vampires

The newest quarto binding, featuring my first hand-wound headbands - the four finished stories in the watchmen Carrefour AU. Cover design meant to evoke the idea of crossroads, along with marigolds, which were an important image in the story. I wrote these collectively with Daylilymoon back in the day, and it's one of my fondest memories. Daylily if you are still around, please reach out to me, I'd love to make you a copy too--and I won't even fuck up the spelling on the spine, for your version DX

Text is Sylfean, Trajan Pro for the titles and drop caps, Caslon Antique for the cover text. Chapter header graphic and back cover version of the Kalfu veve by me. The text block was printed on some rustic, thick grain paper that I bought ages ago at Meiningers and I have no idea what the brand was, but it seemed appropriate for an 1800s era story. Cover and endpapers are art paper also from the art store. Siser metal HTV as usual.

I cannot believe I misspelled the spine, aughhhhhhhhh

A question, for the ficbinding community.

I know that the community is largely centered around the gifting culture of fandom. Is it considered weird, or tacky, or cringey, or a general faux pas, to mostly bind your own fic?

Because I have SUCH a backlog of fic I've written that I want to bind, but I don't generally see a ton of self-binding out there. I do have some projects in the works for other people's fic but most of them are looooooong and are taking forever to typeset, and I keep getting impulses to just do quick lil quartos of my own mid length fics, and I just don't know if that's considered WEIRD.

Hey let's just make this a poll for ease of information gathering.

My first REALLY tiny book, a bind of Four of Swords. A sextodecimo! This lil guy is about 3" x 2 1/4" and is bound with actual cards from the miniature edition RWS deck. Because of the fun tarot imagery I'd been wanting to bind this one, but it's so short, just about 5000 words, so it had to go really little :3

Printed on pop-tone white from French, spine and sword detail done with HTV. I printed the main narrative in black and the flashbacks in blue, for visual separation, and the endpapers are of artwork done for this fic by the incredible @sandwichartistdatzu !!

My first bind for another writer! This is Whiter Fang by Doubledog, in which Trevor and Sypha are a hunter and scholar without their soldier, Alucard is a wolf that isn't a wolf, and literally everyone knows what's going on except for Trevor. And it is hecking hilarious. So happy with so many aspects of this--the HTV worked much better this time, and the edge gilding turned out lovely, and the charms are so cute and perfect. And when I saw the endpapers with the yellow googly eyes on one side, I couldn't resist.

Details under cut.

Typeset in Word, printed on French Smart White 80lb text, in Sylfean. Inside titles in Charlemagne Std, drop caps in TypographerWoodcutInitialsOne, cover titles in Gill Sans Ultra Bold Condensed with some raster editing. Animal Prints font for the pawprint. HTV is Siser, cut with cricut, applied with home iron. Endpapers are from a retro pop art paper pack, bookcloth is generic BbH, and edge painting done with FW acrylic ink in Imitation Gold.
