The Best of the Best: IMDB’s 10 Best Ranked Episodes of Gossip Girl 

thank you to everyone who has expressed condolences about the fact that the san jose sharks are at the dead bottom of the league by a huge margin, however they are not necessary. usually when your beloved team sucks it does not feel “good” but sucking so much worse than everyone else comes around to being really fucking funny. i’ve never loved them more

A collaboration with @gold-talisman who provided the typeset and color/design guidance for this one. The blue marbling came out paler than I wanted but the gold ink I mixed with the yellow/orange dye worked well and there is a solid dusting of “✨sparkle✨” on there (that, as usual, was poorly captured by photos) 

I fish all my leather from the Fabric Outlet scrap bin and this blue stuff is by far the thinnest piece I’ve worked with. It is SO much better than what I normally use, I’m worried I’ve been bit by the Craft Supplies Faerie and will be compelled to hunt down the source and buy more.  Would need to invest in a better setup for tying up tho... as once again the mark of the yarn haunts me.

The timing on this was “amusing” -- had just lent out my large ABE press the day before the typeset came in, which meant I’d only my mini press to work with and there were a couple close calls with the margins in order to make it fit. Nothing clipped but narrower then I’d like. Still learning, still learning....

I have to acknowledge that 90% of the reason why I ever manage to finish my novels is that I'm just a little freak for turning raw text into hot, hot formatted ebook.

These is the most engrossing activity known to mankind (by which I mean "me, specifically.") I am going to gay lesbian poly marry Scribus and Sigil both.

something so unappealing abt these songs where kpop idols are like 'oooo i set the trends everyone is so jealous of me im so bad im so tough' like your agency controls your instagram you are not a thug

Me: Oh hey! It’d be fun to drive out on this mountain road and find a hike!

Me, an hour later: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

anyway the goblin antagonist of hogwarts legacy is, yes, the ultimate antagonist, works with dark wizards to harvest (or steal previously harvested? unclear in the summary i read) magical energy from wizards including children — there's, allegedly, a scene where they explicitly discuss abducting a child. the antagonism is first framed as the goblin wanting to reclaim goblin-made artifacts and magic but is later revealed as an enterprise of personal greed for the goblin, who steals all the power for himself at the end of the game and turns into a dragon (you know, a giant lizard). this is the big plot of the game, is the goblin and his associated evil characters stealing an essence from children for their personal evil magical use, and then at the end of the game, the goblin turns into a big lizard. hogwarts legacy really is antisemitic tropes: the video game.

WHY IS THE LAYOUT DIFFERENT WHY DID THEY CHANGE EVERYTHING WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS NOTHING FUNCTIONS DIFFERENTLY SO WHY WOULD YOU MOVE EVERYTHING AROUND FOR NO REASON A;LDKFJSDLKFJSD;LFKJDSLFJK

it appears that either a) tumblr changed its image display method yet again, b) the most recent update bugged the image display, or c) it's bugged but only for me, since art posts on a non-square canvas have been showing up really weirdly today. anyways hopefully it's just me, but if not let me know if you have a fix for it

Wyll is quickly becoming my favorite character out of spite. I need to do fanart asap

How long does it take to bind books like that?

It's very quick! Niennanir gives a brief rundown of about how long you should wait between construction and completion, but the overall process is very speedy! Quote:

"The whole process, not counting drying time, took less than an hour."

Which is more or less true - depending on how long you spend setting up your pages in your word processor (it took me a few tries to get the margins set to where I wanted them, but once they're set, you're good for any future projects!), you really are going to be spending most of your time waiting for the glue to dry so you can go to the next step lol

Everything else is quite interactive, but in a gentle way which I really like :D I find proofreading and folding the pages calming, and scoring and folding the covers feels very cool >:3c

The only real advice I have to give is that yes, while you should wait for your pages to dry a little before putting on the second glue layer (and also if you wanna be fancy I'd suggest capping the ends as well! Not just the spine itself), you don't want to wait so long that it's gone hard - bubbles can form in between the pages which would normally be pressed by your weights, but if they're left to dry out in the open, your spine will be bubbly and wiggly! This can be hidden by the cover's spine, but it's still better for the overall construction for it to be flat and clean :)
