🏚️ haunted house commissions are back! 🏚️

is your house (or apartment, or rv, or a house you really like from down the street, or a house from a story) haunted? do you wish it was? for a small fee, i'll put ghosts in it for you!

i'm trying out a google form for commissions this time around rather than a first-come-first-serve model. this form will be open for a limited time. probably till around the end of may. i'll have a handful of commission slots to begin with, and i'll pull from the form response pool once more slots start opening up.

want a haunted house? fill out the form here! (reblogs are super appreciated to spread the word! 🫀)

The frustrating part about conversations like "should people with self-harm scars warn others before showing off their body?" and conversations like it is how nobody would tell me that my scars are obscene or should be hidden despite, literally, being self-harm scars. They just do not know because people literally do not know what self-harm scars are and what self-harm is.

Our bodies are not vulgar or gross. We deserve to live our lives, and if our scars make you uncomfortable, we can be compassionate about that, but that doesn't mean that our bodies are Bad and should be Locked Away. Treat us like we belong, because we do.

#mental health #mental health advocacy #self harm #self harm tw #sh tw #it's just funny seeing what people think self-harm is #because they wouldn't think twice about my scars but they would rain hellfire on somebody who has scars that LOOK like they're... #...the result of self-harm (even if they are not from it!) #people just run with the assumptions they have based off of like... pop media and sad songs and never from us #/especially/ if you are somebody who never self-harmed in the most 'conventional' or 'understood' way... #...i found that as somebody who fits that category nobody knows how to treat me... #...which tied into a different post i made about 'unconventional' self-harming bahaviour #and the idea that we should be hidden away like a broken doll just helps contribute to us not getting help or being able to recover... #...like part of the reason i have self-harmed is because i was told how my trans body was obscene in cis society... #...it was more complex than that but being told you are Fundamentally Broken and Bad is genuinely evil

Not sure if this theory makes any sense at all but I'm starting to believe that there's no time skip between Wally's phone calls and what we see/hear in the show's Media/Merchandise. If we see the Toyland call being made before the Homewarming episode then it would make sense that Wally's expecting Barnaby to come over soon. As well as the Homewarming sketch from the prior update. (I don't know, still kind of brainstorming this perspective)

that theory Does make sense and i've been considering it! the "timeline" is such a nebulous thing right now because we still... don't really know! there are too many variables and too many Maybes for any solid answer.

maybe the reality that the neighbors live in exists outside of time like you say, and like half of me suspects. there's so much reality fuckery already present, but I'm also... unsure of how much merit this holds given what we know / can infer about how time passes in Home. i'm putting this theory on a low shelf to look at but not prioritize

maybe it really has been 50 years, and Barnaby is either still around / Wally is still in contact with him, or Barnaby... isn't there. who knows, maybe Wally was just verbalizing some Wishful Thinking. i mean, Wally is a bit of an unreliable narrator, isn't he? we can't assume that everything he says is entirely accurate or truthful. and i mean, if it's been 50 years it makes sense that Wally would be pushing for connection / to revive WH. who knows how long he's been trying.

hm... i mean. it could be a mix of that and the Outside Of Time theory. who knows, maybe W is receiving calls from different points in the timeline - Wally may have started out just calling, and has just graduated to invading the WH website / getting pushy with the envelopes and media that's been sent to the WHRP. maybe Wally got tired of waiting for W to respond before W was even born. who's to say!

#i mean. idk the emphasis wally puts on Its So Quiet makes my brain tilt its head #it feels like wally breaking composure before he pastes the Facade back on with '-during homewarming' #that and just the way he phrased 'everyones usually so busy so its just me and home for a long while' #Usually so busy. Usually. why not Always? or Is? #usually. #and then the 'its just me and home for a long while' #the phrasing here has Connotations i think! #homebogging #welcome home speculation #wh speculation #OF COURSE. I HAVE TO DEBUNK MYSELF! #what we hear / see from Wally is - ironically - more genuine than the WHRP's or W's recovered media (save the eddie excerpts) #the WH media shows us the ideal homewarming - where everyone is getting into the spirit and spending time together and the like #but then wally could be telling us what homewarming is Really like - lonely. quiet. #WHICH MAKES SENSE THEMATICALLY! and it mirrors how christmas time is. its marketed as this joyful thing that brings people together #when in reality its lonely and stressful. i know i certainly never feel more lonely than i do at that time of year! #so there's just. layers. right now im simultaneously believing in the time discrepancy And them existing outside of time #im leaning on the first one but you know! #BUT!!! IM CONFIDENT THAT THE HOMEWARMING WALLY WAS CALLING FROM WAS NOT THE ONE WE SAW IN THE UPDATE. #wally spoke with enough familiarity about the time of year to make me think 'hes lived through many of these hasnt he' #it could be that time Has passed for the neighbors and its been many homewarmings. #it could be that it Started as what the commercials/update showed us. #but as time passed maybe it became a time where everyone just... Isolates for one reason or another. so now it's just quiet and lonely #im still rolling it all around in my head! many factors and implications to consider w/ this update! #Take All Of This With A Grain Of Salt As Usual!

A new sculpture! Finally... I feel like I never sculpt anymore since I'm always sick or have some 500 other things going on or projects to finish, but I'm trying to schedule time to do it more often this year hopefully..! Just a generic fantasy creature as usual, but did try making the eyes a little more sparkly this time.. hrmm..

#sculpture #fantasy art #fantasy creature #art #elf #lol what are the tags I should use... I still never know.. EVIL social media.. hate the idea of tagging anything ever anyway. but alas.. #I also would ideally like to start selling them again and open up custom commmissions and stuff again once I can hopefully get paypal #stuff sorted out. and find like.. a good way to do things.. etc.. I did still want to sell them through auction instead of agonizing #over setting prices being afraid they're either too high or too low. So being able to just be like. Here. this is $50. or more. or less. #negotiate. the worth is whatever you feel like it is so i personally dont have to make that decision. etc. lol... But etsy doesn't let you #do auctions or like pay what you want type stuff so.. then I was thinking ebay? but idk.. ANYWAY.. I want to set things #up so I can sell stuff again hopefully. I still haven't fully recovered from the costs of when I had to take my cat to the vet and put #them down last year and etc. So it'd be good to sell a few things. perhaps.. maychance... perhamble... so on and so forthe... ANYWAY #I was going for whiter more milky sort of hair that blends in closely with the skintone but after the paint dried it seems more yellowy kin #of. which is fine. But just not exacltly like my mind vision lol.. #Also it's like... wow... someone with face spots and elf ears and a half open mouth with a gap tooth and wavy hair and kind of downturned #eyes... revolutionary... never been seen before... every sculpture I have ever made surely doesnt look licherally exactly like this... LOL #but maybe it's just a style. so what. People have their motifs lol.. Im just getting back into sculpting. I shall sameface in peace. huzzah #Just like the only thing I ever carve out of avocado pits anymore is eyes. Because that's just whats fun to do. I'm going to accumulate lik #25 similar avocado eyes and have nothing to do with them. I was thinking of stringing some together into a necklace of eyes or something li #like that but.. hrmm... ANYWAY.. Love to do the same things repetitively. :3c

Funny headcannon I think we should consider.

Kai uses a flip phone now 'cause when he had a smart phone, he was so addicted to social media (which was seen multiple times in earlier seasons) that he sometimes stopped talking to his teammates for missions because he was busy responding to fans.

Also I feel like he was that one snobby iPhone user everyone knows, like jay and Nya both tried to prove Andriod was better but he refused to believe it and blew all his money on an iPhone.

So when that "accidentally" (Lloyd and Nya both smashed it when he was asleep because of how out of hand it had gotten) gone missing, kai had to wait to buy a new phone. In the meantime Wu (who was in on it) gave him an old flip phone to use.

Kai figured out how to use that and just never upgraded even when he had the money to because he found it was just easier to keep using, it was an absolute tank that never broke and his battery lasted days.

Comfort

I wanna share this with my fellow Zevlor lovers, I'm not sure how many male Zevlovers there are but please. PLEASE understand how much this single 6 minute video has given me.

Glen McCready is an angel for this, and I'm listening to this forever. As someone who is painfully closeted and often afraid of being open in fandom spaces too, this is like. Inexplicable. This means everything to me. My favorite npc by far, comforting a character who represents myself in a lot of ways, and doesn't shy from making it romantic by any means.

So please, know that sharing this mean a lot to me.

And thank you, Glen McCready, for being so fucking wonderful.

Edit:

Forgot to add context: This is for my durge oc Aerdir, a refugee from Elturel turned hero against his will, finding Zevlor in Act Two in the pod. Post battle, he breaks down sobbing before Zevlor, someone he has looked up to and had feeling for since before he was made into a "hero". Zevlor takes the time to calm him down, even casually confesses (which killed me), and lulls him to sleep, to rest, for the time being.

i think the diamond dogs should play improv games just bc it would amuse me, an ex theater kid, specifically

#ted and beard ofc are reading each others minds #trent is shockingly good at it but only when he forgets to be self conscious #also see: he does both best and worst with ted (best when he's not being self conscious #worst when somehow the prompt gets too touchy or 'romantic' bc Crush Crush Crush Brain Panic) #(please the image of ted in character hugging him or something and trent just. red. brain crashed. no longer improving just frozen. barely #manages to recover and even then it was not subtle. unclear if ted is a) genuinely oblivious b) teasing him and thinks trent knows that #c) something else(??) ) #roy is too stiff most of the time but if he gets really into it he gets REALLY into it. #best way to get this result is to involve phoebe or another child #higgins did community theater at some point and is the one teaching them all the games. beard also seems to have done intense research #but higgins is the one with EXPERIENCE #not that i think beard and ted couldn't have done an improv duo in college or something but in this scenario they did not #nate surprisingly is pretty good at it once he gets into it like it takes him a second but #then he's like. really getting into it and he's very quick on his feet #new way to go mad with power (affectionate): the rush you get when you make the perfect snap back comedic line/acting choice #also while trent is so good paired with so many of them i think he and nate would be a hilarious duo. they're SO funny. #they complement each other well and are both quick & clever #esp if it's about a mutual interest (although one of them taking the lead on something else like nate and music while the other plays off t #em is also good) but like #please i just had the iamge of them basically doing a bit where they're like. those mean old gay muppets in the theater? #like trent and nate improv duoing as some bitchy reviewers just going back and forth and it's so FAST and SO funny #beard records it and posts it somewhere and it goes viral. #god don't even get me started on the idea of some sort of official richmond social media/the gang posting random clips on social media #bc the ideas i have are so funny. #also largely trent centric but what do you want from me okay i'm just a little slut.

The biblical need for a Good Omens season 2 musical is real, palpable, burning, and giving the final circle of hell.

Listen, maybe I've been watching too much Hazbin Hotel, and so the notion of Heaven/Hell musicals is stuck in my head- but HEAR ME OUT:

We're on one of the last songs on the soundtrack. Aziraphale is fluttering around the bookshop because he's about to confess his feelings for Crowley. He's singing his little heart out about how, after all this fear and self-loathing, he is finally ready to step out and go after what HE wants, not what Heaven wants. He's prepared, he's in love, and he's done with heavens bullshit. We get to the final chorus, and BOOM. Metatron walks in, cutting Aziraphale off, and asks to speak with him, and Aziraphale agrees.

The next song is instrumental because we, like in the show, have no real idea what was discussed in that meeting. It starts off cheery, maybe a little tense, before it gets somber.

And listen, all I need is a song where Crowley has just watched Aziraphale get into that elevator without looking back, and his heart breaks. I need him, specifically David Tennant, to sing about how Crowley will probably never get over Aziraphale and how, despite constantly waiting for him, it is killing him; it is a death he will gladly accept. I need a song where his rage melts into sadness, and we get a laid-back Crowley just asking if Aziraphale or God can hear him, asking why.

The last thing we hear is that the Bentley is starting up and driving down a busy street in Soho- but if you listen carefully, you can hear a nightingale singing in the background because the story isn't over.

#michael sheen #david tennant #good omens #aziraphale #crowley #neil gaiman #good omens season 2 #go2 spoilers #I'm FINE okay? #I'm totally not still recovering from season 2 #I'm a completely normal college student #I feel bad for whoever hires me as their lawyer in the future #because I'm sure I'll do fine with the law part #but they'll have to deal with never knowing their lawyer is fucking insane about theology related media #your honor

The night of February 4, 2024 aka the Great BenzGarfield “He loves cats” day

Story time, for anyone who wasn’t on twitter that day and didn’t lose their mind over them pulling this (over a month before the TLDHLB/BenzGarfield announcement, while Pit Babe was still airing). This all went down during the filming of the Bad Guys MV, btw.

It all starts when Garfield tweets this photo with this caption:

Multiple people in the comments ask "Which cat?" because yeah, WE WANNA KNOW

Benz immediately replies with this:

He then takes to Instagram to post this story, with the text “orange cat!”

In case there was still any doubt as to which cat Benz loves, Garfield then quote tweets Benz’s reply (you know, so everyone can see), proudly making this proclamation: Cat=me!!! 😆

The day ends, we all go back to breathing normally, and then the next morning, Garfield posts this photoset to Instagram with the caption “which cat do you like?”

And Benz immediately replies: the orange one 🫨

He loves cats. Which cat does he like? THE ORANGE ONE.

i used to be a bit conscious about having so many girls/fem characters in my works (starsaints carnival is the only developed story right now that doesn't have a female protagonist, and most of the time i have to actively go out of my way to make male characters) but you know what fuck it i like girls so i'm gonna write girls goddammit!!!

#this is a bit inspired by my last reblog because so many of my girl ocs are super flawed/villainous/antagonistic/what have you #and then reassassination... literally every girl in there is a mean rude bitch who kills and murders..... #but like if every female character in actual published media that focuses on dudes is gonna be hated for being a bit mean #then why not have all my personal oc projects about mean girls who take focus of the story ? #oftentimes the needless hate of girl charas also stems from the underdevelopment of that character compared to her dude peers anyway #(tho thats not always the case and misogyny is almost always a driving factor in unnecessary hate regardless of the quality of the writing) #i feel like i'm waffling lmao #but in the end i just want to write stories about evil annoying overpowered lesbians who hate everyone #also the whole “mostly girls” with my oc projects probably stems from the fact that i only ever watched stuff about girls as a kid!simple as #i took the tokyo mew mew pill at age 8 and never recovered

the long awaited sequel (mostly the knights cause i’m biased)

john cameron mitchell referring to kibum “my buddy” and saying he should also play hedwig on his ig omg 😳

ahhhhh! ok OK! i'm screaming at the full caption though!!

i need to unpack this! first of all, the fact that he's talking about the character in the netflix show, going through enlistemnt as a gay man, and all he endured, and saying it's a groundbreaking korean queer story, AND THEN imediately mentions his buddy (😭💕 successful fan kim kibum!) key, and how he also had to do his service too (implying that he is another queer man who may have endured a similar experience as the character???)

and then says he should play hedwig!! (john, this is what i have been SAYING.)

anyway, this kinda made me emotional! it's so sweet, and kibum has been a huge fan of hedwig, and john for ages, so this just makes me so happy for him 💖

#ahhhhh!! #imagine if kibum actually played hedwig though we'd never recover #anon #key #shinee #key + media #john cameron mitchell
