When people get a little too gung-ho about-

wait. cancel post. gung-ho cannot be English. where did that phrase come from? China?

ok, yes. gōnghé, which is…an abbreviation for “industrial cooperative”? Like it was just a term for a worker-run organization? A specific U.S. marine stationed in China interpreted it as a motivational slogan about teamwork, and as a commander he got his whole battalion using it, and other U.S. marines found those guys so exhausting that it migrated into English slang with the meaning “overly enthusiastic”.

That’s…wild. What was I talking about?

The Borg is the ultimate user. They're unlike any threat your Federation has ever faced. They're not interested in political conquest, wealth or power as you know it. They're simply interested in your ship, its technology. They've identified it as something they can consume. I Star Trek: The Next Generation "Q Who?"

Also the power has been out for the entire town since 11 last night and the birds are starting to chirp outside. I think i can hear 1 million birds...

Well, a tornado came through town last night. Phil, Nanny, and I mostly stayed in the bathroom all night, waiting it out. Came down our 'main' street and damaged the hospital and a few other buildings.

Tore the shit out of the grocery store i used to work at (get fucked suzy)

#amazing what happens when all noise is taken out of a town #even the highway is shut down bc of downed live powerlines #so not even highway sounds... #just birds thunder and a barking dog #i kinda like it #also hate it these birds are ALL singing the same 'tune' and its only a little grating

Garak was late to lunch that day because he was building a bomb to destroy his shop. He was eating Delavian chocolates while he made it. He saw an assassin and knew for whom the bell tolled, but he still ate his chocolates, and he still went to lunch, just a little late. Because he was making a bomb to blow himself up with.

do you have any tips for artists who want to get more confident with their lines?

i'm not very confident in my lines myself! i don't think it's a requirement to make awesome art, i love a hatchy feathery line bit, some of my favorite artists online use it. but i would say figure drawing and fast sketches with ink pens. figure drawing is my favorite, and you can do it online pretty easily for free just video searching:) but if it's boring just take a ballpoint while watching your favorite show amv video game edit whatever and go ham.

#pen drawing helps me #stops my feathering a bit
