Me when people come into a chain craft store with the most bare bones beginner supplies for every catagory in the god forsaken store and ask me how to do professional projects when none of us have been trained in the actual art of crafting itself because we were all hired on as cashier's meant to simply help you at check out and even though I can probably give you some sort of answer because I personally have done research on/ been a hobbyist with a lot of the merchandise we sell, you're still probably better off just doing your own research because I am not a fucking expert you fucking cunt ass bitch.

#you are asking me right now if we sell the supplies or a kit even to replicate this person using thick acrylic paint and a henna piping #tube to make henna like designs on canvas..#ok so get a henna piping tube WHICH WE DO NOT SELL and some acrylic paint which we do sell fortunately #and then do it on your design #no we dont #we dont have kits for it #no #oh it was a class #she offers classes but its a two month wait time #maybe its because THIS FORM OF ART HAS SOME SORT OF CULTHRAL RELEVANCE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO PAY FOR HER SERVICE SO THEY CAN LEARN #but you think you can buy this at this craft fucking store with over priced beginner supplies in an entire kit #nothing irritates me more than the white women that walk into my store fr

Knitting a freehand bag and started wondering how often people even use patterns, anyway. So--how often do you use a pattern when you make things ? This include knitting/crochet/sewing/weaving/nalbinding/bobbin lace/tatting/etc but also things like woodworking, cooking, and baking. If you want to just pick the thing you do most often that's fine.

I personally do not use patterns as I find them far more confusing than just figuring out the construction of an item and simply making it. I do very occasionally browse ravelry for inspiration but have downloaded maybe 2. In the 5 or so years since I joined. And have followed exactly 1, which I modified every single aspect of. In my defense, dyslexia.

#poll #knitting #crochet #weaving #tatting #sewing #quilting #nalbinding #bobbin lace #cooking #baking #theres just SO MANY patterns out there and i kind of dont understand why... who is using them ???#they are so hard to follow even when written well #i get that thats dyslexia talking and not true for most people but it still baffles me #i also dont follow cooking/baking recipes but in a different way #the issue for crafting patterns is that i cant read and so i cant figure out what the hell im supposed to do #but recipes are usually lists and dont have tons of abbreviations and dozens of steps #so i can kind of read recipes but i just like doing my own thing and also have been burned by recipes before #so even if i try following the recipe as hard as possible i will inevitably change some things #like what about the whimsy. also i will use a butter wash after taking this out of the oven i dont care that it says eggs #and while i dont do legos anymore i was the same with that too. we got a kit once and my sister loved following each step #oh my god. the worst. i would covertly make other things with the remaining pieces while she assembled the thing #i do think that were i not dyslexic i would still not follow patterns #like i said i just prefer to do my own thing most of the time

Screaming crying throwing up at the Thunder spoiler thread because

-

-THUNDER SPOILERS-

-

Frostpaw coming to the realization that the Park Cats have a culture that she likes better than the culture of the clans, and wanting to bring elements of it back home with her? That COULD be an actually good use of a traveling book, and it WOULD be an actually nice change to see the clans do any kind of self-reflection on the violence of their culture. Unfortunately, I don’t trust the Erins even a little bit to follow through in any kind of satisfactory way on that plot thread, so I worry it’s going to result in the Clans once again looking at an outside culture and taking a very xenophobic lesson away from interacting with it.

I'm still trying to work out my feelings on the return of the Park Cats... overall, I think I'm feeling pretty frustrated, and it's coloring my perception of them

I also really disliked Riverstar's Home, though. I hated the traveling, I didn't find the Park very interesting in practice, was annoyed by a ton of small things. It felt like the book only got good once we were back in the forest, so, maybe I'm still tasting my sour introduction to the Park cats.

I also don't have any faith in the authors to handle Waffle and Wasp well, or any of the practices Frostpaw is planning to bring home. At this point I'm expecting it. What's really on my mind is... why?

Why did they create a whole little unchanging cultural bubble, a group under glass, exactly the same as it was during the dawn of the clans... when they were just going to blast Frostpaw with The Avatar State anyway?

She can talk to Riverstar whenever. And every ancestor who served under him. And you don't even have to waste 6 chapters on travelling. Could we not have learned about meditation from Riverstar, if the Erins are soooo eager to shove the ancestors into this and write him as her spirit guide?

Like, all this time dedicated to a culture whose one trait is meditating. I have frustrations with the Sisters and Tribe, but they're interesting concepts, with their own spiritual beliefs, government, and customs. So far, the neo-Park has been bland.

Like Guardians, a bare-bones group that showed up once in an SE and just existed to serve the Clan cats for a while, and send Tigerheart back with new characters.

But like, back to the Lesson of the Park Cats, whatever thing Frostpaw could bring home

I just... man, I go off about Clan Culture and its violence literally all the time, but this arc has been ridiculously peaceful. We are 4/6ths of the way through and there was one major battle, at the end of a book, which was bloodless. All the fighting has been arguments.

What exactly is Frostpaw going to learn from the Park cats? How to be passive? Is that going to help RiverClan get rid of the occupying army? Will the power of mindfulness help them un-forget all of their battle training and remind them how to do their own laundry?

If (if.) The Erins have planned all this out, then what they're going to do next is have Frostpaw take what she's learned, and use it to help un-divide RiverClan.

Which TO BE CLEAR would be good for Frostpaw as a character!

But that's not addressing the violence of clan culture or even leaning into it. That wouldn't really be a cultural change, so much as Frostpaw having learned leadership skills... which, again, makes me wonder what the point of a culture frozen in time really was, when they blasted her with this super strong, unprecedented magic connection to StarClan.

Idk. Just, generally not vibing with this book if the spoiler thread is to be believed.

#Asc spoilers #Thunder spoilers #No.. nO WAIT... I just fucking realised #If we DO get froststar... The spaying plays right back into how women leaders have a double standard about having kits!!!!!#UGHHH HELPPP I DONT WANT THAT #PlEASE JUST BE NORMAL ABOUT POWERFUL WOMEN #Anyway. Im thinking about how im gonna retool the park guys #Because the park culture is just as foundational to early BB!clan culture as tribe culture is #Because unlike these writers i actually care about sociology and the evolution of culture through time #I'm thinking about that one bog body lmao and king sacrifices #Maybe I'll take a look at the Beaker people nearby for inspiration

Okay but Kit, what if Obi-Wan was the model and Anakin the photographer?? 👀

ok but this is giving me the idea of a totally different scenario where obi-wan's just written his comeback novel after a few years of suffering writer's block and his new agent insists he has to take photos for the book jacket, alright, obi-wan i know you're all about privacy and writing under a pseudonym but we need your face on this book dammit your face will sell this book. that is a new york times best seller face.

and finally obi-wan agrees (reluctantly) that he'll come out as a very handsome bearded baby man to his fans, and the photographer they hire to take the headshots is anakin skywalker

anakin, who is low key obsessed with ben lars' books and writing and owns them all and has a tattoo of one of the lines on his forearm. who thinks he's just doing some headshots for obi-wan kenobi, normal day in the office.

this would lead to mistaken identity shenanigans as they flirt the entire shoot and anakin touches him a lot more than he should "to position him" and half the pictures are unusable because obi-wan is giving come fuck me eyes to the camera(man), but they leave with each other's numbers to continue the stellar banter and sexy flirting

and anakin has no idea who obi-wan is, that he's actually ben fucking lars, until they release his new book and anakin opens it right there n the bookstore to see obi-wan's face smirking up at him from the book jacket.

#asks #i dont do reversals of aus ive already thought about #but who says i cant have two photographer aus :)#obikin #kit's silly lil aus #anakin: you were lying to me!!!#obi-wan: we met sso you could take headshots for my book jacket you knew that #anakin: i didn't know you were ben lars!!!!#obi-wan: i didn't know you'd care!#anakin: i have one of your quotes tattooed on my arm!!!!#obi-wan: oh that's what it was? i didnt recognize it #anakin: whT DO YOU MEAN YOU DIDN'T RECOGNIZE IT

the insistence that leafpool and squirrelflight shouldve just said the three were abandoned loner kits and everything wouldve been better is so weird to me, as if 1) theyre not still lying about parentage so theyre still being denied their heritage despite their family being right there, and 2) the shadowclan patrol and berrykit trap incident didnt happen like two weeks ago

#hell. like daisy in general didnt happen. how there was a whole speech abt how thunderclan was becoming too mixed BC OF HER?#as if we dont now have an arc that pretty much details why loner kits would be treated just as poorly?

I’ve said this before but I keep thinking about it every time someone mentions the TWP characters. We somehow got into a situation, again, with 3 traumatised sad boy teenagers who are going to be absolute drama queens and have really interesting relationships. While Dru & Thais are our only source for girl on girl content and that kinda saddens me, and while I’m looking forward to TWP it sort of dampens my excitement and makes me a little nervous.

#i dont know what’s coming obv #and i’m not mad or anything #anand obv we haeve livvy in there too but idk what thats gonna look like exactly #and i’m not saying that cc doesn’t write meaningful female relationships #or that some quota needs to be met #cause this is a tendency in media in general and always has been and wow i could go off on this for so long but i wont #dont have the patience rn to write a 10 paragraph post #but i hope you get what i mean #the wicked powers #dru blackthorn #thais pedroso #ty blackthorn #kit herondale #livvy blackthorn #ash morgenstern #twp

Kinda wondering... how will Silverbelly take care of all the clan since the other medicine cat got murdered now?

well, there's Eaglestripe at least, but between the two of them we still don't have enough medicine cats... luckily there's some kits on the way to being apprentices :)

#giggles in I Know Something You Dont (one of the kits chose to be a med cat)#fallenasks #though to be fair eagle doesnt have a lot of experience #good thing we have silver! shes an expert
