#with off the cuff shit

[pararennial-archived]

Why do coffee cups avoid the city? They're afraid to get mugged. (Blue)

❝Now let's pump the breaks here, Blue. If I were a nice cup of coffee, the place I'd be the most worried about, or quivering in fear over getting mugged would be Finland. Those motherfuckers consume 12 kilograms per capita, so I guess any city in Finland, I'm hightailing outta there.❞

The Tametebako or Colloquially "Fuchi's Last Stand" was a no holds bar, money is no object vanity project by an unsupervised faction of Fuchi Asia. The stated goal was to make a completely unmatched bleeding edge piece of tech that could compete with the best static units while being a portable terminal replacement. Aimed at the Newly minted UltraLux CEO Segment, The Tametebako was made from rare and hard to get materials to sell it's exclusive nature; bundled with its innovative hardware and extremely powerful Otohime Assistant Software (Which Fuchi spend 10 years developing). Consequently, The Tametebako Commlink retailed at 50 000 nuyen which many consumers balked at for what was essentially an overpowered phone with an extremely intelligent chatbot. Many reviewers sledged the device for it's inability to install new applications if they weren't from approved sources. These Commlinks are now seeing second life in the collectors and hackers markets with finding the styling and theming of the phone to be charmingly retro and powerful enough to keep up with modern hardware with some QoL mods. Diehard fans report the Otohime software taking on a life of it's own after modding the hardware; her usual calm and dignified demeanor shifts around and changes during the jailbreaking process due to the random voltage pulse needed to defeat the modification lockout chip. This results in a unique iteration of the Soft on each device. SinkaSwim P2.0Net

#Shadowrun #Otohime #im fuckin free #rendering devices is hell #but im glad i did it #the deep lore on this is shes a normally digified character #but with say some offcolour shit off the cuff before rephrasing to sound more polite #originally envisioned her as a gps navigator but gridguide beat my ass

#bungo stray dogs #bsd #literature #dark academia #reading list #academia #i'm sure there's people i've missed but i did my best LOL #this also really throws into a stark contrast how relatively un-worldly american literary curriculums really are #obviously; it makes vague sense to focus american literary schooling on the western 'canon' bc so much of the english language #is influenced by it and the 'culture' is more touched by it but HOLY SHIT does it just... astound me #how uneducated i am on even east asian literature (from wheremst i technically hail!!!) #i know like.... maybe 3?? 4??? chinese writers off cuff??? #like the only reason i even know anything about jpn literature is i got my minor in jpn so i read some stuff but WOWWWWW there's a wORLD. #the fact that i knew not a SINGLE work by most of these jpn writers but as soon as we got to the guild members #i didn't even have to fucking google/wiki -- i just KNEW off the top of my head #kinda fucked up tbh;;;; #anyway this list is massive but i think at least dipping my foot into some of the poems/short stories will be fun

i really want to know what the honey and pineapple floorshow was all about.

#interview with the vampire #louis de pointe du lac #iwtv #amc iwtv #the awkwardness when your hosts lean into their interpersonal problems in front of you #anyway louis is not a super happy person in dubai but he's positively bitchy at the dinner table it's amazing #between this and the meth-addicted coal-miner's son snark #something something eating will perhaps always be problematic with louis #something something he may have found a quasi-humane way to consume blood but something something suppressing his true nature to appease #his conscience leaves another kind of hunger unslaked #22 years of hangry on top of many decades of major depression goddamn #someone get this man 100 sessions of emdr. a pass to murder a remorseless felon. and the fuck out of this depression cave #(there is no way armand is horfing honey and pineapple. louis' off-the-cuff bitchery is hilarious and holy shit louis is unhappy)

It's a good day when you get a Fresh Treat from the Special Bucket... Lazarus doesn't usually Hand feed the Worn-Wolves it's more of a "toss the scraps around the yard and let them go Ham" kinda situation, but every once and a while the viscera bucket gets full and everyone gets a special little morsel. vwv)/

#re8 oc #lord lazarus bosch #blood cw #.. I am never Quiet sure how to tag the Worn Wolves #if anyone has any ideas do lemme know #they aren't all named yet #I gotta do more research on artists that Lazarus would have encountered and been inspired by #and the designs/details may change when i draw them again #cause these were all off-the-cuff #though I Do love Ms. Baldy over there #she looks like she's got some Shit Going On

[sevens-evan]

one of my classes here is on masculinity and literature and yesterday the lecturer was talking about how masculinity is purposefully non-reflective because reflection pokes holes in it and he brought up the old cartoon bit where a character runs off a cliff and as long as they keep running and don’t look down they’re fine. but the minute they stop to think they fall. and that’s masculinity and honestly it was fucking brilliant

#evan says shit #he did it off the cuff too it wasn’t on the slides

[liu-yu-xin]

Omg wang hedi and victoria had a new years stage tgt they did roof on fire and girl????? What is going ON

#it has a few million views already ppl love it #i cant believe wang hedi said derderderder about the sound in the chorus off the cuff and made this song popular again #and now he gets to collab with victoria song qian on the same song 😭 #victoria song #wang hedi #dylan wang #sidney talks shit

[blusandbirds]

i love craigbond all his stunts are such disasters he's fucking running into walls and tripping over guns and buildings are crumbling beneath him, he's tumbling down a roof and then the roof collapses and he's falling onto the floor and then the floor collapses and then he falls on a conveniently placed stack of blankets and he pops up like okay nice, he's just a brute he's just a guy

#blu talks #blu watches bond #hes so unslick hes constantly eating shit but then he brushes off his cuffs like yes that was cool i am james bond #this is why these movies are fun for me but very unfun for daniel craig very sorry daniel they made you plummet through crumbling buildings

fandom bullshit feels so petty now, and it always was, in comparison to just seeing the complete bleakness of world news

fuck it, man, enjoy that ~~problematic media~~ that's out now, vent out loud how creepy some shit is, dive into textual analysis of misogyny at the roots of a lot of media, yank it to some girl breasting boobily down the stairs, or turn your brain off and just Watch

do what you want, forever, just block shit if other people upset you because you and I know that there's no budging from our own interests

#qq posts #the pro/anti thing feels so hollow now even if alot of big accounts are still duking it out #just saw a no name reviewer make an off the cuff post over a very creepy line a mid-20s guy says of a 14yr old #and she got dogpiled by BOTH sides of this bullshit #and the original author who wrote that seriesgot dogpiled because of course they would be with how rabid some ppl are over 'immoral fiction #fictional stuff is fictional but presenting a creepy scenario and expecting no one to react from that is ???? #people are still allowed to comment on shit even if theyre not attacking the moral character of the author... #discourse watch #okay done now this is just bullshit that caught my attention in between The Horrors

not to toot my own horn but it feels so jarring to reblog the anniversary of the moon landing and also be doing irl research to support current cislunar activities

#science shit #redglyphs #sometimes i feel like a bad internet-er for not being as hype about stuff i should like/area of expertise #but then i tell myself i come online to be stupid for a bit #and i get analysis paralysis when it comes to communicating topics i invest a lot of time/energy into #like you see those bloggers that bring their expertise and make those cool interesting informative posts? i can't be like that #it'd kill me to post a thing and then realize ''i forgot about this! but there's this caveat... argh wrong word choice--'' #or i just don't have strong strong feelings about what others think of a thing #or idk. i'm not good at talking about something in a vacuum (hah.) #an obsessed guy on some kerbal forum could probably say more off-the-cuff about space stuff than me #until a hyperspecific question gets asked and i'm just ''eh idk ig'' still

anyone else feeling the friday the 13th luck?

i accidentally sewed a sleeve on upside-down

upside fucking down

#og posts #rambles to the void #we're not gonna talk about the other fuck-ups of this project (yet) #but good grief am i so tempted to just. stop #but im so close to the end. finish attaching sleeves then figure out cuff ruffles and the collar bullshit #i think i set my personal standards too high for something i was making for the first time. like way too high. #this is why you don't sew w/out mockups everyone <3 /g you'd think i'd know that by now w/ doing this shit on and off for years.. #im still gonna see it through but idk if i like it so much. maybe putting the whole ensemble on will help me- the corset belt keeping it in #the right spot i hope... this is also why i kept the OG shirt intact in case i hated the outcome. #maybe if i get lucky itll be like the wig and just be uncofmy for 10 minutes looking in mirror before i forget in my excitement the day of

i have yet to write a fic where i tie eren down and ride him while he’s a whimpering, fucked out mess. . .

#☆. freak hours! #hmmmm #pink fuzzy cuffs on him would look nice #teasing him would be orgasmic #he’d still be a shit talker tryna play it off like it’s not affecting him

[saltrockatansky]

i hate that sigmund-freud’s-letter-to-his-fiancée post and for once it’s not because it’s sigmund freud but because everyone in the notes is pearl clutching over the mildest dirty talk i’ve ever seen in my life

#literally the least off the cuff shit freud has ever said #like what is up with all the puritans on that post jfc

[prompt-master]

what she worst thing about your comfort characters

How hard they are to draw

#prom is talking #ask #LOOKING AT YOU DONALD FAUNTLEROY DUCK. #why is he SOOOO impossible to draw #i can draw most spongebob characters pretty well off cuff. esp squidward id say? #but for some reason #for some terrible awful godforsaken reason #my favorite lil spongeboy always looks wonky #i actually wanted to do an art series #honoring each of my hyperfixations #since they really got me through some shit and shaped me as a person #but. spongebob looks so </3
