Ok, so, in the Portal 2 Developer’s commentary, they mention a thought experiment they would try when designing some of the elements of Old Aperture - they created a character named Bob, Old Aperture’s sole janitor, who didn’t know Jack about science but could fix anything with duct tape, and they’d ask themselves “how would Bob do it?”.

And I was thinking to myself, “man, being Old Aperture’s sole janitor’s gotta be rough. You gotta be pretty stubborn to get all that done…hang on. Who else do I know who’s stubborn and canonically has a parent who works at Aperture-“

So, I present to you: Bob, Aperture Science’s sole janitor, and Chell’s adoptive father.

(Also the orange core is Cilla, from the mod The Office Prank)

The end of the year can be tough for a lot of people. My goal? To make it a little bit brighter. That's why I'm pleased to once again announce the return of...

The Portal Holiday Spirit Initiative!

To help bring a smile to people's faces this year, I will be sending FREE Portal-Themed Holiday Cards to anyone who asks for one! There are a few changes to the cards this year because life has gotten very busy for me and I have less free time than in years past.

This year there will only be one card design, featuring artwork from one of the Portal Fandom's awesome artists! The cards will still be customizable to any Winter Holiday of your choosing, but you'll have to wait for your card to arrive in order to see how (the method takes cues from the Portal game's sense of humor, so it will very much be on-brand).

This year is also special because it is PHSI's 5th Anniversary! I can’t express the amount of thanks everyone who has participated over the years, whether you've reblogged and shared, requested cards, helped with artwork, or helped in other ways. You all deserve my recognition and thanks for volunteering your time, talents, and support! Thanks for helping to make PHSI a special fandom tradition!

If you would like to receive a Portal-Themed Holiday Card:

Visit bit.ly/PHSI-2023 ...

Answer the questions in the forms...

Wait for your card to be sent!

It's that easy! Card Requests are now open, and close on December 20th in order to give me enough time to make and send all the cards before the end of the year. Please submit sooner rather than later so I have time to finish them all!

Also, please don’t be afraid to request a physical card if you don’t live in the US! The card service I've chosen says they ship worldwide and, while it might take a bit longer for you to receive your card depending on what country you live in, the cards will get mailed to whatever address you provide, domestic or foreign. Last year I mailed/emailed a total of 164 cards to Italy, Canada, Germany, England, Poland, The US, The United Kingdom, Brazil, India, and Slovenia!

I’m happy to be a part of the Portal Fandom and hope to bring a smile to others in the Fandom this year! Making and emailing Holiday Cards takes time and effort, and sending physical cards is expensive. While it isn't a requirement to receive a card, I would greatly appreciate if you'd like to give $4 to cover the cost of your card or someone else's. Please visit ko-fi.com/247testing and click the Donate button if you want to help out.

Also, feel free to DM me with any questions or comments. Thanks!

Answers for common questions and concerns under the cut:

Worried about providing a mailing address, for whatever reason?

PHSI has an eCard option! All you need to provide is a name for me to call you by and an email address to receive your card!

Worried about requesting a card because you don’t live in the US?

PHSI mails to any address provided, whether domestic or foreign! However, please wait patiently for your card, due to the current global rate of shipping.

Worried that you can’t give $4 to cover the cost of your card or someone else’s?

Requesting a card from PHSI has been and will always be FREE! However, giving $4 to the initiative helps me pay for the printing service and postage to mail physical cards (visit ko-fi.com/247testing if you’d like to contribute). I gratefully appreciate any contributions received, even if it’s just a comment saying thanks!

Worried because you don’t know how to support the artist of the card you received?

The artist’s social media is listed on the back of every card featuring their artwork. Look them up, commission them, reblog their art, and support them however you can!

Worried because you haven’t received your card yet?

Double check your email inbox and junk folders. I send everyone an email that either confirms your Holiday Card has shipped or includes your eCard! Physical cards take 1-2 weeks to arrive. If your physical card fails to show up after the first week of January, please reach out to me and I’ll send you a replacement eCard!

Worried because you received your card and don’t know what to do now?

Make a post about it! Include pictures, videos, or anything you’d like, and tag me in the post (@24-7-testing) so I can reblog it! If you don’t want to show your card off, that’s ok too!

here is a closeup of the android Cave Johnson^ from my sketches below (i was playing around with the lighting and i'm pretty happy with it, might make a full hd version of it soon)

-- more (random + glados) art below --

(warning not as good as this)

was trying out some new brushes in Krita, and ended up with a few different things:

an eye, a cute toad, a bee <3, and Cave Johnson from @cupcakeshakesnake portal 2 au. (aka android cave johnson?)

and lastly humanized Glados from portal 2, NOT from the au btw (still not sure about the design choices i made tho)

and here is Glados! I'm pretty happy with the sketchiness of it (it's something i struggle with), this is meant to be when you first wake her up. (i dont think i got the expression i wanted right, i also forgot she has a red eye in that scene but i dont care rn)

(btw I'm not really used to krita, I'm used to drawing on my phone on medibang paint x, but i just have to keep practising i guess.)

Portal peak rant

To be honest I really wish I was born in a time when the portal fandom was really popular, like I know we’re lucky to still have a fandom now but look at all the cool stuff that happened then, people were making Wheatleys left right and center, portal was relevant in pop culture and ppl knew it off a whim, it was constantly praised for its innovativeness, fanfics were churned out, blue sky was at its peak, MORE WHEATLEY OBSESSION, AUs and so much fandom glory came out of its peak and I’m really sad I’ll never get to be apart of or see it, and don’t get me started on all the cool portal con meet ups, plenty of portal cosplays at relevenant cons and just so much amazing art and talent and love was poured in, now the fandom is significantly smaller with a lots of dedicated artists who I adore, but at the same time portal fading into obscurity hurts oddly in a way, might just be my obsessions but for the amazing work of art that the game is valves kinda let it fade into obscurity, which is super disheartening to me, and I know I could be interpreting this all wrong but portal deserves more recognition and popularity in todays media in my opinion. I don’t even know why I sparked this rant but I suppose with Fairlith (the director and actor for GLaDOS in the portal musical) selling her GLaDOS costume and boots off just kinda sparked that people no longer really hold the fandom as dear, made me a lil sad, wish I could have gotten the boots, but oh well I’m just a teenager what do I care.

#rant #portal #fandom #portal fandom #idk why I did this #fairlith #portal the musical #portal 2 #sorry if it’s kinda venty this has been on my mind a lot #fyp

I totally spaced posting about it, but January 30th 2024 marks the 10th Anniversary of my Tumblr blog!

I joined Tumbr back in 2014, right at the peak of the Portal fandom. Crazy that it's been 10 years!

While I joined in 2014, it wasn't until 2016 that I rebranded as 24-7-testing. Shortly after that is when my blog really gained traction, so we'll celebrate that in a couple of years!

Regardless of whether you've been here from the beginning or if you followed me in the last week, thank you for being here! It's your participation and support that keeps the Portal Fandom active. Thanks for making sure we're all Still Alive™!
