Hihi, thought I'd give you the answers to your question on my post :) my friend used 56 count linen and stitched one over one, he didn't use the goggles he has freakishly good eyesight. His name on twitch is Thedaceman0 and he has a project on this tiny fabric that he works on in streams if channel points are redeemed if you're curious to see him stitching so small, it's nuts.
holy shit that's insane. 56 count?? i can barely handle 16ct!
i don't rlly use twitch but please pass on the message that an internet stranger is in awe, if that wouldn't be weird 😂

❝ don't hide your face away from me, let me see the blush on your face and that shy smile of yours. ❞ with josh, pretty please?
omfg yes i love this, and i love college!au josh tbh
josh was always a charmer.
after his awkward phase fizzled out, and he graduated high school, josh knew how to speak to anyone. he always made people feel special in their own right, whether he was flirting or not. he just had that way about him.
the first time you met him, you saw right through it. you almost hated how charming he was. you thought that nobody could truly be that nice. ever.
it started with a stupid, childish game. seven minutes of heaven seemed like the world's most childish game to play at a college party. but with the amount of liquor everyone had within them, it seemed like the best thing to pass the time.
that beer bottle spun around and you found yourself stuck in the closet with josh. he turned on his flashlight after the door had closed, wanting to be able to see you. "i hope you know that i'm not doing anything you."
"i wasn't going to ask you to," he spoke, putting his hands into his back pockets. you stood across from him with your arms crossed over your chest, standing your ground. "looking at, and being as close to, someone as stunning as you is good enough for me."
"don't be such a flirt."
"i'm not trying to. beautiful women just bring out the romantic in me. and with someone as breathtaking as you, doesn't shock me." you turn your head away from him, attempting to keep your smile back by biting the inside of your cheek. you cursed at yourself for being unable to help yourself from falling victim to his cheap one-liners.
"hey, mama, don't hide your face away from me, let me see the blush on your face and that shy smile of yours." he spoke, using his hand on your chin to turn you towards him. your attempts to keep the smile in the dark from him was hard when it was illuminated by the flashlight coming from his phone.
"will you let me kiss you, mama? please?" he pleaded, eyes flicking between your eyes and your lips.
you drop your arms from your chest, keeping one of your hands on his forearm as he pulled you closer to him. his lips were soft against your own, and his tongue tasted like jack daniels honey, with a hint of sierra mist.

marvel watching their new quantity-over-quality projects flop, realizing exactly how hard they fumbled the bag on setting up an ongoing Avengers Team Movie Series and frantically being like “ok ok maybe we uhhHHHHH try to get the OG avengers back. the circa 2012-2016 mcu zeitgeist avengers those ones were popular we can bring back the interest” is so sad.
like babe do u think u can simply turn back the hands of time. do u think u can simply bring back the characters u killed off for shock value and expect the same level of engagement. more importantly do u think you can simply afford a 2023 robert downey jr
accept ur failure with grace. steve is in the 40s now & tony you CHOSE To Do That,

So, I know the fandom (myself very included) love to talk about JLA playing fuck marry kill with Brucie Wayne as an option...but I offer an alternative. Bruce overhears a conversation between Clark, Diana, and Hal.
Clark: No I mean if we're playing, I'd fuck you Diana, obviously it would be a wonderful night--
Diana: and all the way into the morning, obviously
Clark: Obviously. And I'd marry Batman, so sorry Hal, I guess you gotta go.
Hal, outraged: Marry Bats???? Over Me???
Clark: Yeah, hello, have you seen him? No offense and all, but if you get the chance to sleep with wonder woman you kinda have to. And if I marry Batman I get sweet gadgets, nerdy banter, awful coffee, and I get to use the little ears on the cowl as handles while I bend him over the breakfast table every morning.
(plot twist, Clark totally knows Batman's there and this is his extremely weird and roundabout way of flirting)

I GOTTA ASK BECAUSE IT WONT LEAVE MY HEAD
What if we escaped after being kidnapped by Ren/[REDACTED]? 👀
✦゜ANSWERED: hehe
"Found ya!" A chilling laugh comes from somewhere in the dark alleyway behind you, startling you and sending you tumbling backwards. "...H-Hey, why are you crying? You got to have a taste of freedom, didn't you? Isn't that what you wanted?"
Familiar blue eyes slowly emerge from the darkness as they stare you down with a hollow gaze. "...What? Were you expecting everyone to show up and celebrate your return? Your friends?"
One single, heavy footstep breaks the silence.
"Your coworkers?"
Then another.
"...Your ex? Angel, they didn't even care that you went missing! I mean c'mon, where are they right now? They're all out celebrating Christmas and the New Year with their own friends and family instead of looking for you! ...They've moved on. Found someone better to replace you."
Another dreaded footfall.
"But I'd never do that to you."
Then silence.
"Nobody noticed you were gone." From within the darkness, a marred hand reaches out to help you stand up, "...But I did."

Hello! With the hawk feather au, do you think Emily will end up falling? Cause at this point I feel like all it would take is a particularly bad outburst or two from Sera for Emily to say screw it and hurl herself out of heaven. At least that way she won’t have to be confronted with the horrors of it all.
Honestly, to me? Yeah, I think she would end up falling in the au
Now it just depends on how, does Sera end up causing her out? The elder angles? Does she fall herself? Honestly, all of them are equal possibilities
Thoughhh, the elder angles using Emily as a scape goat for why the exorcists 'ran off' and stuff is an interesting possibility

Hiii, i love your stuff and kinda from a distance really look up at you for, in my perception, being able to express yourself without giving a fuck. Thats sick dude, Im so so afraid, of absolutely everything, its nice to think like i might grow into someone less apologetic of my existence. Nice to see people just being yknow
hey, thank you, this is really really nice. the secret that is probably not a secret is that i am also deeply afraid a lot of the time lmao -- but less than i used to be, and in ways that feel less stifling and self-suffocating, if that makes sense.
like, it used to be "i'm scared that if i express myself the way i want to, everyone will find me obnoxious, so let's just sand those edges down to be safe" -- now my fears are more like "now that i'm expressing myself in a way that feels natural and real, i'm afraid that it's all stupid/vapid/not worthwhile or meaningful" (<- specifically abt my art) or "i'm happy that i talk and act the way i want to now, but what if it makes me impossible to befriend," etc etc etc. which still feels bad and puts me in a funk a lot of the time but at least it's a fear that comes After/in reaction to doing stuff, rather than a fear that STOPS me from doing stuff, you know? like, it's evolved into a kind of fear that's less in my way.
anyway. i believe you'll experience something like this, because wanting to grow is the first step of growing. the fact that u hope or wish for something different means you're already on your way. to fewer fucks!! or at least distributing the fucks u give in a way that serves u better
#stuff like accepting that i'm reserved and i'm not very accessible via messages.#or that my online tone isn't very bubbly and it's weird and uncomfortable to force it.#i stop letting fears about that shape my behavior ('i'll look mean or snotty so let's force markers of Friendliness to avoid that!!') -#- and instead act the way i want to and then trade it in for new fears that come After the action.#also a good reminder to give urself is that if ur fear is abt how other ppl perceive u (as 90% of mine is personally)#u really... can't actually control that. and being very very anxious abt it all the time is usually ur brain throwing a tantrum abt not--#--having that control. bc it is understandably very scary that u don't have that control#as much as it sucks + is terrifying the truth is the only thing u can do is ask urself 'am i behaving in a way that i'm proud of'#'am i behaving in a way that's in alignment w my values + what i think is important'#bc if the answer to that is yes and somebody hates u or is deeply offended by ur existence anyway. well. literally not ur problem#but obv being at peace w that is way way easier said than done + requires tons of practice and will take. probably. years. which is fine#i am stuck with myself. i can either contort myself forever trying to be someone everyone will like and find totally nonthreatening and-#inoffensive and in the process exhaust myself totally and never feel safe or natural myself. OR#i can say okay. so i am a kind of prickly guy with stern and drab speech patterns and close to no social energy. and i think i can still be#-sexy and fun this way. and it is up to other ppl to figure out if they can agree w me on that#ANYWAY enough rambling for now. just another one of those things i think abt a lot so i have a lot of ready-made sentences abt it in mind

Anaiya nodded. "We understand your reasons for disliking Elaida, even hating her. We do understand. But we must think of the Tower and the world. I confess I do not like Elaida myself. But then I have never liked Siuan either. It is not necessary to like the Amyrlin Seat. There is no need to glare so Siuan. You have had a file for a tongue since you where a novice and it has only roughened with the years. And as Amyrlin you pushed sisters where you wanted and only seldom explained why. The two do not make for a very likeable combination."
-The Fires of Heaven, Chapter 27: The Practice of Diffidence
Re-reading The Fires of Heaven has made me increasingly confident in the show's read of Siuan's character being book accurate (an opinion I originally articulated here). I always encourage re-reads of the books, but I would very much encourage re-reading The Shadow Rising and The Fires of Heaven specifically if you are doubting the choices the team made in episode 7.
Cause the thing is, Siuan's central character flaw- the one Anaiya is trying to gently cite above, the one on heavy display all throughout both books via Siuans treatment of those around her, is her complete lack of trust paired with a willingness to force and browbeats others into doing what she thinks is best.
It is, ironically, a trait she shares with Rand- both are unafraid to use their power (physical, magical, political- what have you) to make others obey, and both also are unwilling to demonstrate trust and good faith out of a fear of showing weakness. It's something born inherently of their shared insecurities about their respective positions of power- Siuan's young rise to the Seat and the fact that she is carrying on her conspiracy with Moiraine and Rand's belief that he isn't strong enough/good enough/hard enough to be the Dragon Reborn alongside the tendency of the people he cares about to get hurt or have their lives ruined by simple proximity to him.
Throughout both The Shadow Rising and The Fires of Heaven Siuan uses primarily tactics drawn form the same playbook that would later also lead Rand to disaster in the back half of the series: she comes to view those under charge more for their value to her agenda then as people she should be looking after, forcing Min to remain in the Tower against her will, refusing to make any effort to console or reassure those who care about Elayne (Gawyn, Galad, Morgase) that she is well, and engaging in many actions because their are expedient without regard for their moral implications (ordering Mazrim Taim's execution without trial, lying about Logain being set up by the Red Ajah, manipulation Logain so he has no choice but to follow along with her plan). And I don't think it's a mistake that many of those actions either lead to, or directly follow, Siuan's downfall in the Tower.
In fact, Siuan begins to make the turn in her character after encountering Mistress Tharne, which largely sets in motion Siuan's character arc for the remainder of the series: realizing that she can not force the word to conform to her will, not least of all because she is no longer the most powerful woman on the planet, but more over because it's wrong. Mistress Tharne's rough treatment of Siuan, her complete lack of respect or deference, is a wake call to Siuan that gives her empathy and understanding of the way she treated others when she held power. Much of her arc there after is about emphasizing that point, first as a stilled woman serving Aes Seadi, then as a restored but drastically weakened Aes Sedai.
In this way Siuan gets a taste of what it's like to be on the other side- forced and expected to obey, constantly fighting against a system rigged against her from the start, meant to keep her out of circles of power and away from the ability to make decisions as a woman who can not channel, and then as a Aes Sedai who does not stand high enough in the hierarchy. More over it gives her perspective on why things like the Oaths and the Tower's traditions matter- on the ways the Oaths protect ordinary people and the way Tower traditions like 'staying out of the business of other Aes Sedai' and 'respect secrets of individual sisters and Ajahs' help keep Aes Sedai working together and functional. But it's really her friendships, which she is able make on now even terms, with Nynaeve and Egwene, that help her gain empathy and understanding, and in particular allows her (via her mentorship of Egwene) to try and positively influence the Tower's future via reforms to make it more equitable, less mired and fractious and cracked.
As Amylrin, we're told, Siuan ruled by playing one faction in the Tower against another, widening the cracks between Ajahs and within them so that no one was able to effectively oppose her and her agenda- that is until someone came along who could rally support, to take advantage of those simmering frustrations and angers in order tear her down. But that person, Elaida, shared many of her faults and few of her virtues- instead of playing one faction against and brow beating, Elaida (with the Shadow's help) turned the Tower into armed camps ready to lash out at each other. Siuan's tendency (often cited by even herself) to send sisters to do penance on farms for opposing or annoying her, became Elaida using the same tool to humiliate and punish her enemies and using edicts to demote them to Accepted for being weak, and Siuan's precedent for keeping secrets and working around the Hall became Elaida plotting to kidnap Rand and 'make him supple' via Galina's embassy.
And it's a neat closing of the circle, the kind Jordan really likes to play with, that Siuan's redemption for this is her training of the woman who will replace both her and Elaida. Someone who will actually fulfill both women's ambitions of leading the Tower in the last battle- Egwene. Siuan's justice against Elaida is to help prepare an Amyrlin that will be more then either she or Elaida ever could- someone who will be free of their faults, who will be able to unite the Tower as both women dreamed of doing but never could- who can guide Rand and bind the nations to him, who can serve as a general of the Light strong enough to balance the worst of the Shadow. Siuan teaches Egwene how not to do the things she did, to fall into the traps that brought her down- the arrogance, the pride, the domineering, the compromises with her own morals- and it's that teaching which, in part, gives Egwene the ability to persuade the Tower that still saw her as a Novice....to raise her to Amyrlin of it's own accord.
Siuan still should have been allowed to kill Elaida though instead of the Suffa stuff, I will die on that hill.

“I made you your favorite” and “you're not burdening me, my love. taking care of you is my responsibility.” With Sammy please?? 💗
of course my dear darling, brooklyn <3
here's some sick!reader, caretaker!sammy :)
"baby," you hear sam singsongingly call from down the hallway. "i made you your favorite!"
your throat burned something sinister, keeping you from responding back to him. it had been two years since you started dating sam, and you only got sick twice. you hated him seeing you sick, especially since he had always been on tour while you had gotten sick.
tissues littered the space around you in your bed, even commandeering the night stand on your side. part of you wished you had the energy to lock the door on him, although he would've found a way to jimmy the door open anyways.
he knocked softly against the door, pushing it the rest of the way open. in his hands was a warm bowl of soup, the steam coming off the top of the bowl. you weakly smiled at him, counting your lucky stars you were blessed with someone who cared as much.
you grabbed the water bottle from beside you, taking a drink before you spoke to sam, "you don't have to stick around, you know, jake wanted to get drinks with you tonight."
"you act like taking care of you is a burden." he joshed, putting the soup on the nightstand after moving some of your tissues into the small garbage in the corner of your room.
"it is, though, sammy. you should be out celebrating the tour ending, i can take care of myself."
"i know you can, but you're not burdening me, my love. taking care of you is my responsibility, and i've missed out the other two times. just let me take care of you right now, baby."
"i don't like this."
"never said you had to, now eat your fucking soup before i feed it to you myself, and i know how much you'll hate that." you grumbled in your spot in bed, giving sam the death stare before picking up the bowl. you sat it down on your chest, using the blanket as another layer of separation from the heat.
"you're lucky you're cute, kiszka."

As a guy with a mom who's a Nurse Practitioner (and also sort of a workaholic) I could totally see a modern-au Machete working in the field of medicine. It would be mega interesting to see how he deals with all the crap that medical workers need to put up with these days.
(Wait now im thinking about this and i kinda want to make it happen)
I did consider that option, medicine was one of the subjects he minored in canon. But I don't think he'd have the right personality for bedside manners or enough social savviness to deal with difficult patients. If he had working eyes he could be a great surgeon.

i’m sooo curious on bill meeting dipper’s parents. i think i remember you mentioning at one point they kinda sucked and treated dip especially bad. i’m sure that’s caused a lot of his long term mental health/self esteem issues and i can’t help but think his husband wouldn’t be too thrilled about that. also they don’t even know he’s married so that’s a whole other thing lol
In the Familiar AU, Dipper's parents shipped him and Mabel off to Grunkle Stan back when they were twelve, actually!
This was initially excused as the twins 'needing to get used to having magic'. Which makes sense! Magical puberty is a heck of a thing, and getting some training's useful to cut down on random magic surges.
But by the end of the summer, they hadn't made any plans for picking the kids up. This when Stan twigged to the real situation.
And by the end of that year, Dipper knew his 'paranoid' assumption was absolutely correct.
So the twins grew up in Gravity Falls, with only very occasional visits back 'home'. Contact's been sporadic, and Mabel's been the one who's clung more to their parent's attention. Dipper hasn't spoken to them unless forced to in years.
So yeah! Bill's not exactly thrilled with the parents - but lucky for them, they haven't met him yet! And they definitely don't know about the marriage. Much less anything else.
#answers#In summary: The twins' parents found out their kids were magical and decided they Just Couldn't Deal with that#They're not magical themselves and giving your kids some Magic Training is a good idea#But at some point you need to actually *take them back*#Which they just. Didn't#Dipper abso-friggin-lutely has a whole mess of issues from that#Abandonment's a big one. Being worth something and good at something? Yep that's an issue right there#Not the least of which is that Mabel as a more Talented and Powerful magic user got more attention when they were still there#Then continued to get more attention via phone call when they weren't#Mabel's got some REALLY rose-colored glasses on about the situation#Dipper sees it for the 'well my kids are freaks but at least one of them is a Cool Freak' it is#That's a fact he's been stewing on for *ages*. A fact bomb that he could theoretically drop on his sister but never did#Needless to say he got the brunt of the Issues™ but Mabel's got her own in turn#I'm also betting there's more than a dash of homophobia in their parents considering their reaction just to Magic#So the parents aren't going to be very thrilled about either of their partners#In my head I picture the parents wanting a Totally Picturesque Family#And creating the visual of one is easier if you only have Pictures of the kids instead of them being there and being themselves#In summary: Yeah The Parents Suck#I started a fic for this once and I still intend to write one but that's a later type of project#I gotta have the right start for it to flow well

If you're obviously capable of making "small wavs" here, you should be perfectly capable of still making youtube videos. Just saying. You still got your voice and seem fine to record. If you're tryna quit youtube just be honest.
This isn't the first break I've taken from YouTube. I said I would address things soon on there and I will. But harassing me about it will get you blocked and really, you're not convincing me to come back to YouTube this way. Maybe be kinder and less entitled to my life. I'm not a machine and Youtube doesn't pay me. ✌️
