Finished yesterday. Cross stitch for the frame and blackwork embroidery for the circular fills, on black 14-count Aida cloth.

While I feel like I've generally improved my project photography skills over the last few years, the contrast (or lack thereof) between DMC 211 and DMC B5200 in those smallest circles was A Trial.

Pattern here.

#V’Ger lives!

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1

The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.

So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.

So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.

Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.

And the probe is working again.

From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

BEHOLD! The TV doctor molecule, Part I. All connected to each other in three movies or less.

I realize these are all dudes, something I will fix in Part II. These are just the first six TV doctors I thought of.

Some notes:

1. Yes, Kate Winslet was in Titanic too, but I needed Melanie Lynsky anyway, and I wanted to use Heavenly Creatures.

2. He voiced (and modeled) the Johnny Cab.

3. Patrick Fischler was one of the people in the elevator in the beginning of Speed. He was also on Cary Elwes’ crew in Twister. It’s a Jan de Bont thing.

Here we see Izzy employing the classic improv method of utterly baffling your scene partner. It’s like “yes, and” except more “no, what”

#vic loves it

Imagine you’re friends with someone who hosts a really popular internet game show, and he invites you on a couple of times and you gain a reputation for winning that gameshow. Then, he sets up a show where the whole point of it is that you cannot win the game, just to break your streak of the whole thing. Your trust breaks just a little bit.

Next time, he asks you to put on a mic pack for another episode of the game show, turns out it’s a heart rate monitor for another episode where you have to sit there and be almost tortured as you attempt to keep yourself calm. Your trust is devolving.

Next time, you come on the show, he tells you to go and wait in the green room and locks you in there, he’s a recording on the screen because he’s locked in the bathroom, he’s been there the whole time, you’re forced to do an escape room to go to work. You don’t know if you can trust him anymore.

Next time, you go on the show, you play bingo, you don’t trust him, something’s wrong, he’s been manipulating players to manipulate players into manipulating players. There was no way for you to win this one, not really.

You are a mouse trapped in a maze

You are a performing monkey at the circus

You are the most popular person on TikTok despite not having a tiktok

You are Brennan Lee Mulligan and this is your life. Sam is your boss, your chief scientist and ringmaster. You will never escape.

This is absolutely incredible.

#I’m in awe

This. Is my pride and joy. A gift for my dad, who played Zork with me when I was a kid, and with his dad when he was a kid. I designed this pattern myself and had a great time puzzling out how to hide the glow in the dark letters!

Buy the pattern here!

Pattern: “West of House” by me Fabric: 2x1 on 18ct Blue-Grey Aida Started: 11/27/2021 Finished: 12/25/2021

I finally get to post this because they got it! This was a gift for a friend who likes Columbo.

Shoutout and thanks to @kidkinobi on Pixilart for the picture of Columbo I transcribed square by square into a cross stitch pattern by eyeballing the colors. They had no socials I could tag.

BEHOLD! The Singer-Actress Molecule. All connected to each other in three movies or less.

At one point I also had Bette Midler in there - successfully - but the lines were too confusing. You’ll just have to take my word that I did it.

I gave myself a gold star for using Flight of the Navigator.

I know nothing about you, but I saw your comment on another post "Back to the Future III or Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country," so like. Mad respect. Boop or something.

Thanks! Those are both of my favorite movies from those franchises, respectively. Boop received and acknowledged.

BEHOLD! The Breakfast Club molecule. All connected to each other in three or less, *without* using any John Hughes movies.

It’s important to me to point out that they are, clockwise, in the same order as the letter.

I used to have Molly Ringwald connect directly to Paul Gleason using Not Another Teen Movie, but that felt like cheating.

Yes, Reginald VelJohnson was in Ghostbusters; he was the cop who let them out of the jail cell, saying “Okay, Ghostbusters! Mayor wants to see you guys.”
