Once again frustrated by how Difficult it is to do very basic tasks

#this is not even about executive dysfunction today #today i'm annoyed my phone simply won't make calls and every pharmacy i have contacted charges $100 for the covid vaccine #they're paying these kids $13 an hour obviously they haven't heard about the cdc program #they don't like train you on that stuff i get it #it's just. i would like a vaccine to put off getting covid again thus putting off the disability i'll eventually get from it #given enough times it's bound to fuck me up for good i'm just trying to make money until then #but it's just hard. everything is hard for no reason #i could just pay the $100 i guess it's doable it's just a bummer #i'm trying to save up to get out of this state give me a break i am very tired

seeing solangelo discourse is so funny to me bc it’s like ‘there might be a slight age gap maybe!!’ or ‘will and nico's bickering isn’t Good Bickering it’s Bad’ like have you ever simply considered no one really gives a flying fuck about william solace as a character and solangelo is just as bad a ship (if not worse) than caleo and the only reason people like it (or even tolerate it) is because it’s a canon gay ship with one of the most popular characters in the series

#not to hate anyone who ships it idc. especially if we’re mutuals or whatever like it’s cool with me #i just think it’s very mid & it annoys me because literally every other ship option would have been bounds more interesting #maybe my perspective will be changed when i read their book (which i may actually pick up soon) but i have my doubts #anti solangelo #i do this thing where i post something controversial & then go to sleep unfazed as if i won’t receive consequences for my actions 🤡

So, I just had this idea for a Secret Quartet fic:

After Hawkmoth/Monarch’s defeat, Adrien talks to Jake/Danny about how Ladybug still isn’t willing to do an identiy reveal. They end up bringing up the possiblity of Alternate Timelines (which are supported for his end by the event where Sass used his powers without a wielder). One thing leads to another and Adrien & Danny visit Clockwork, who shows Adrien What Ladybug Knows (without sound, of course, to avoid Spoilers)

Ooh, that would be fun! Adrien might very well suspect she's not being wholly honest with him in this. He knows her well, after all. But he also knows she clearly doesn't want to talk overly much about it, so getting answers a different way makes sense.

He expects he'll find out what he missed in her last battle.

He doesn't expect to find out how badly things could have gone wrong.

While Adrien's trying to digest the whole Chat Blanc future (even if he doesn't know what spurs that future beyond getting akumatized; Clockwork might well edit what he shows), Danny--assuming he's still present--could be mentally comparing it to his averted future and trying to figure out how to comfort Adrien when he's still not exactly comfortable with the whole nearly-could-have-been future himself.

It's all a distraction, of course, because Clockwork is not going to play things straight and simple. Show them bits here and there, give them enough of an answer to be satisfied without revealing anything that's not quite ready to be revealed. Cards played right aren't questioned.

Really, it might have worked wonderfully if Bunnyx hadn't chosen that moment to drop by--but she'd have known that, of course. She'd have chosen that moment specifically because of that. She's good at picking out the proper threads of the timeline for someone so young, and she's aware of the consequences of what she does, but that doesn't mean she's not above bending the rules when she finds some flexibility within them, ready to be exploited, where she can nudge things one way or another without nudging everything onto the wrong course.

#secret quartet #musings #ladylynse #asks #miraculous ladybug #danny phantom #sorry I just figure Bunnyx would involve herself in this were going down #I figure sometimes she'd agree with Clockwork's assessment and sometimes she wouldn't #and when she doesn't she'd annoy him by doing what she can to get her way #all within the bounds of not causing a catastrophe of course #anyway if you do write out your idea let me know so I can toss it on my 'to read' list

"let the hunter be safe, let them find comfort. and let this dream, their captor... foretell a pleasant awakening. be one day, a fond, distant memory.”

“farewell, good hunter. wake, now.”

sandman x bloodborne rotting my brain-

morpheus feeling deeply for all the tortured souls trapped in this nightmare realm. for the hunters whom he grants waking from their horrific pact to the hunter's dream. for the once-been humans turned beasts whom he gifts a final, peaceful, dreamless sleep.

Hilarious end to the final king gleeok!

I may have forgotten the kg over the far west of hebra existed. I did not know the game registered this as a kill (though I'm not sure it actually does? The music kept playing like nothing happened lmao). Either way, third last sage orb acquired!

#I've two more to go and three gleeoks left ToT #I don't know where any of them might be!#I am bound and determined to 100% this game without a guide for anything #And I am THIS CLOSE #TO DOING IT #If I'd lost that kill I'd have been so annoyed lol I broke so many weapons on that thing's hide #And flying there took forever #Honestly king gleeoks are pretty fun #If you get a good rhythm it's over for them and you can mix and match their final phase at will XD #Still prefer my lynels tho #Those guys have killed me way more even in this game #If you factor in botw it's not even close #totk #loz #legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom #loz totk #totk spoilers #botw totk #totk link #loz tears of the kingdom #tloz totk #the legend of zelda #The amount of troubleshooting they must have done for this game is hilarious #'hey we need to make it so the player still wins if a gleeok falls off the island'#'can't they fly??' 'yeah'#'and the player can't hope to move them or back them up?'#'we're pretty sure they'll find a way but that's not important right now'#'and they don't fly outside of their island so they can't accidentally escape the player?' 'yea'#'so why would we need to do that?' 'trust me dude'

I ended up spending most of yesterday fixing some fit issues with the scrappy sweatshirt -- which has somehow morphed into the Jyn Erso Sweatshirt in my mind, between the color and the sleeve details and the Star Wars-iness of it all.

I was hoping to finish it yesterday, but the fit issues were worth spending the time on, I think. Sewing on one of the sleeves revealed a large, weird bubble at the back of the armscye, and in dealing with that I ended up taking a chunk out of the tops of both the side back and side front panels where they connect with center back and center front, which fixed most of the issue I was seeing with the excess fabric problem.

But at that point the shirt was a weird in-between of not quite fitted enough, so I mentioned to Jack that I was thinking about taking out the two rectangular side panels that together were adding about 5" of width to the shirt. He suggested I just use a plain seam to take it in, instead of picking out all the stitching. That took out about 4" of that 5" width and resulted in a shirt that's significantly more fitted while still loose enough to pull on over my head. It also turned into this really cool seam detail at the side seam:

Of course, that'll be completely covered by the fitted vest I'll be wearing over top for our Batuu outing, but I like the way this sweatshirt turned out so I'll probably end up just wearing it on its own with jeans or whatever, too.

Once I had the body fitting the way I wanted it to, I fitted the sleeve into the armscye more or less by pinning it in place while wearing it. I was extra careful to match the inset panel on the sleeve with the inset panel on the shoulder, and I ended up having more fabric at the back of the shoulder than I needed (the other thing that was causing that weird bubble, as it turns out) but with the lapped seam and fitting it while wearing it, that was easy to shift that out and then trim it down later. I also ended up taking in the long seam of the sleeves themselves, so that the width matched up with the smaller armscye. The sleeves are completely fitted now, but there's enough stretch in this fabric that it's still comfortable and I have full range of motion.

With the sleeves attached, I was able to try the whole thing on and mark a couple of changes I wanted to make to the neckline and to level out the lower hem. I trimmed those to shape, then added the same sort of hem finish that I used for the sleeves: a narrow panel cut parallel to the knitted grain of the fabric, and thus unlikely to either roll or fray too badly. And with that, I could call the scrappy Jyn Erso Sweatshirt finished!

At some point in the next two and a half weeks, I want to gently hand-wash it to get all the chalk markings off, and then probably let it air dry. In the future I plan to throw this shirt in the wash with everything else, but for right now I don't want to risk something unraveling and needing fixed before I wear it to Batuu.

The other thing I may want to fiddle with later is the collar trim. When I wear it under the vest, it lays flat and sticks out exactly as much as I was hoping it would, for just a little bit of contrast color right at the neckline. But when it's worn on its own the neckline doesn't feel quite right. It probably just needs a couple of little darts at the shoulders to help it lay flatter against my neck -- or I might chop it down to a narrower width and let that be the solution. But either way, it's not something I'm going to mess with this month.

So with the shirt officially done and wearable, I can get back to fitting the vest. I left some pins in it from the last set of alterations I was thinking about, right before I decided to pause that project and make the sweatshirt to wear under it. But as soon as I put it on with the sweatshirt, I could see that my alterations were in the wrong place -- largely because I'd just done something similar with the sweatshirt.

During my last try-on a week or so ago, I had thought I needed to pinch in the top of the armscye to keep it from gaping over the cap of my shoulder, but that was making the bust fit weird, so I had started pinning that to take it in, before deciding that I really needed to be able to fit it over the shirt I'd be wearing it with.

With the complete flying-by-the-seat-of-my-pants nature of the sweatshirt project, I had come to realize that my pattern for both the sweatshirt and the vest (and probably a bunch of other things, come to think of it) are way too small through the shoulder, especially on the center front panel. The center back seems to be fine, weirdly.

So instead of pinching out a triangle from the armscye to the neckline, I seam ripped the shoulder seam and sewed an extra rectangle of fabric onto the shoulder of the front panels, being careful to match the grain lines. I've pinned a new shoulder seam in place -- the same shape as the alteration I had previously pinned, but now with two or three extra inches of height between the shoulder and the bust.

It's gotten too dark to try to fit this very dark blue fabric in the mirror so I've set it aside to finalize tomorrow, but I could already tell that the bust is fitting much better, now that it's sitting where it should be instead of trying to float two or three inches too high. I may not even have to make any adjustments to the bust itself, but I'll wait until tomorrow to decide, after I can see the vest in bright daylight.

Besides that, there are a couple of other tiny changes I want to make -- lowering the curve of the part of the neckline that folds over, bringing in the flare over the hips at the side seam just slightly, and trimming off the extra length especially in the back panels. Those are all very simple changes, so I'm hoping to get through them all tomorrow while the light is good.

Then I'll be able to transfer all those changes to the paper pattern and cut out the exterior fabric from this same blue linen. The lining will have a seam where I added to the front shoulder, but unless it shows through really obviously, I'm not planning to re-cut the lining. I'm hoping to put some pockets in that'll live between the exterior and the lining anyhow, so I'm not too worried about that one extra seam showing through. And worst case I'll just re-cut that piece of the lining, since I should have enough linen left over after the exterior is cut.

Once I've got the exterior cut out and assembled, it'll be down to attaching the exterior to the lining and finishing all the edges, then adding the zipper and any other closures, and adding pockets if I have time. There are a few other detail things I'd like to do for my outfit if I have time (covering up laces and buckles, mostly), but all of that will only happen after both the vest and Jack's jacket are finished.

Still lots to do, but I'm feeling really good about my progress, and how cool everything looks. The sweatshirt isn't something I could have imagined and sketched out in its final form, but I am thrilled with the ways that necessity led to such interesting design details. I wanted something long-sleeve in that blue-gray color, and I ended up with something so much better than that, something I just love.

I tried on all the pieces of my outfit together, and I'm really happy with the look overall, and particularly the way the sleeves of the sweatshirt work with the vest and the hooded wrap and my little fingerless leather gloves. I can't wait to get the vest done and really see the final effect of all these pieces I've made. Less than three weeks to go now, but it's easy to stay focused and motivated when everything just looks so wonderful.

More pictures and updates to come as I continue to check things off of my list!

#my sewing #scrappy sweatshirt project #Jyn Erso sweatshirt #Batuu vest #Batuu Bounding #2024 mood #I have been making slow progress on handsewing the pleated panel to Jack's jacket too #it's at the annoying phase where I have to stick my entire arm into the sleeve to pull the needle through #but it looks so COOL that it's keeping me motivated #and since I can't really work on the vest much after dark hopefully I'll start making more progress on the jacket in the evenings now #and sewing all of this and writing up these posts has kept me focused on and excited about this birthday trip #while also keeping me from vibrating in my seat from excitement lol

Isn't it funny how today it’s pretty common belief on here that the idea of 'cringe' and shaming of people who like 'cringe' things is bad. That the big fandoms back in the day that people like to make fun of - superwholock and john green books and twilight and homestuck and whatever was popular at the time - certainly had elements very deserving of critique, but how that critique largely drowned under people pointing and laughing at, the mostly teen girl, fans. Like, we are pretty agreed that this was bad, right? That it’s cruel to actual people and makes it difficult to have genuine conversations about the actual flaws of the media and fandoms in question, right??

And yet here we are today and I see people doing the exact same thing to newer fandoms with the defense that the fans are cringe or, if you're trying to be all moral about it, problematic and possibly evil for liking a popular media. Like, I don’t care about reylo or our flag means death or taylor swift or romantasy novels to any particular extent. I don’t have a horse in this race. But I keep seeing their fans treated as acceptable targets for harrassment or bullying. Posts talking about how immoral they are and then their screenshoted 'proof' is mostly just. Women being passionate about a thing that they love, or god forbid daring to defend it or being bummed about everyone else harrassing them. And I think it's kind of scary how we keep repeating this cycle of designating a media as inherently problematic, therefore all of its fans are problematic, therefore they are deserving of every ounce of mocking and public shaming they get.

#when the whole cait corraine thing went down last year i legit saw posts going around saying not to give reylos or even xiran any credit #bc the poster was so set on seeing them as inherently immoral that they refused to accept they could help do good or be victims of bad #of posts i see making fun of cringe fans with screenshots half are actually horrifically bad and deserving of critique #the other half are just women having fun and then being mocked for it #we talk a lot of shit today about how cringe culture is dead and yet this behaviour keeps repeating #and if you dare critique it you risk end up being one of the people screenshoted and mocked for daring to care about something cringe #don’t get me wrong. do critique fandoms for fucked up behaviour. do critique media and celebrities for their shit when deserving #but by now whenever something gets popular to the extent of being mainstream I start counting the days to its downfall #bc when a fandom gets big enough there’s bound to be enough annoying/genuinely shitty people there to leave a mark #and at that point vindictive people on the internet will start actively looking for reasons to deem them Problematic and Acceptable Targets #I've lost count of how many times I've seen it happen #anyway. that's enough opinionating on tumblr dot com for today #rambles

Being an Android, Connor did not in fact keep sandwich ingredients ready for the making, in his kitchen. The space had been made use of between Connor's pinboard, for cases (currently clear; he had not brought that work home with him this week, yet), and art supplies tucked away in the cupboards which themselves were filled with Connor's stickynotes he'd left around for his boyfriend, small notes Markus had decided needed to be kept because, he said, he "thought they were sweet."

So they, as a couple, did not have sandwich ingredients and they, as a couple, did not tend to tell people where they lived in general, and they - as a couple who lived in a fourth-floor apartment - were not aptly placed for foot-traffic criminals.

Nathan Young was (he noted, with a properly annoyed flash of his LED, vibrant yellow), wearing shoes in their apartment. Shoes which had just been through the gardens earlier today.

"Nathan," the first name, was what he settled on, once his keys were down and his own shoes were off, "this isn't somewhere you can be." This space was, flatly, out of bounds for him. "You should leave."

#ic #immortalled #dkjfldkj connor vc: you are out of bounds. i might even enjoy you in some places. this is my home and if i find you here again #i'll arrest you and press as many charges as i can name.#🤷‍♂️ You Should Probably Leave #kdlkdjl this. i don't think this is repliable but he gave me uhhh. parent setting 'this just is not an allowable location' boundaries #and here he is. Absolutely Not (out loud) but allowing the presence temporarily. for n o w. he'll arrest him if he sticks around kdjflkdj #would nathan even recognise that Genuine annoyance in connor? he is rarely Genuinely annoyed #don't wear shoes in his apartment dkjfldkjg #(how did nathan even learn their address. very few people know. connor will track down whoever told him)#(they will Get A Talking To)#uuhhh ps nathan might mention the fairylights strewn over bookshelves and the fireplace and exposed brick wall.#and bookcases #but . connor tells me nathan had Enough Sense not to e.g. invite himself into the bedroom #so he insists that's the most information nathan might need

thank fuck i don't have a job because i don't have any fucking idea how my mum would have been cared for during the last four months

#''nurses over everyday?'' you'd be surprised by how much this isnt how the medical system works #so i think in the timeline where i have a job my mum would've been hospital bound instead. gosh #everybody in our life keeps being surprised that nurses dont come over everyday. like no they don't do that #its me its 99& me you guys. the nurses come twice a week for medical equipment reasons and a general overview #anyways we wouldn't want medical people every single day anyways that'd be annoying and tiring #the way things are is annoying and tiring too but for different reasons. its not in a The Social Drain Of Having Visitors Every Single Day #like can you imagine? ugh

I wanted to use a Chas Dingle gif for “Name a character who technically isn't a villain but you consider to be one.” Meme on Twitter but turns out Emmerdale related Twitter gifs are all Robron.

also to anyone who plays honkai, does anyone have other translations of the game? aside from the official?

i feel like i talked about this with a friend, but the translations just. don't line up with what's being said a lot of the time and it's slightly driving me insane x - x
