Why is this adorable? Cause it is and I love it
Dark but verryyy true LOL. Prefer to not be physically beheaded today, thank you.
Okay, but I must say.. To hear your blissful bafflement and joy from making others happy makes me dearly happy, Ranboo. I mean it. Looking back on the years (whoa... YEARS??!!! Nope. Ewww. I'm feeling extra old) since seeing you streaming, you've grown into such a spectacular person, I can't even properly describe how amazingly ridiculous it's been watching you and the people surrounding you grow and grow. It's indescribably incredible.
I don't watch much anymore (which is fine, those years are forever good memories in a moment of my life), but I do pop in now and again to see how things are. And I'm so proud of you and your friends. Now forgive me, I am not sure that if sounds weird or not for a complete stranger to say. I have a natural Mama Bird instincts combined with a crapload of empathy. I can't help but have a strong pride for anyone who is happy and proud, excited and living life, not just living.
You've done great things. You're doing brilliant things. And you'll do even better things, Ranboo. Keep living your life. It helps remind you, me and others that it is possible to go for our ambitions. I hope you have a splendid day/night. And if you don't have that now, then it'll be soon. :)
It is still so wild to me like, what this job is? Like how on earth is my job just to make stuff that makes people happy like thats awesome!!!! Its like a court jester but I dont get beheaded if I dont do well :D
I have been looking for a desert for hours. And what have I found instead? Hold on, lemme get my list *flips out paper and clears throat*
Ocean Temple, Ocean Temple, Ocean Temple, Mushroom Island, Mangrove Swamp, Mangrove Swamp, Taiga, Taiga, Taiga, Taiga, Taiga, Taiga, etc.
Im so done. I'm gonna keep going, cause I desperately need cactus, but REALLY I wanna smash something.
aw. thanks. :}
When I die, I don't want to be visited on the day I die. the day I die is just some random date that my body went "sure" at when it spun the wheel of death/life. visit me on my birthday when I choose to sleep in during labor. and don't give me presents, I want to be brought a single flower. one flower that is your current favorite and tell me why it's you favorite. if it changes next year, I want to hear about that flower to. I want to get to know the people who visit instead of mourn.
The General looked at the file again. Over and over and over, they've been bothered with this girl ever since they saw her file. Wondering what she was like aside from the proper lady in the photo. Well, they'll find out when they meet her. The General closed the file and put it in their ever-growing pile of papers. They needed to clean that mess up sooner or later.
The General got up from their chair and looked out the window of their office. There in the courtyard stood a teenage girl. The girl wore what looked to be a silk kimono. She appears to be a noble girl. It was the same girl that's in the file. And the kimono. It didn't suit her. The General grinned at himself and the girl down below.
"Fuu Madris, huh?" he muttered. "Well, I can't wait to see how you'll fair out in the field. Don't disappoint me now, dear descendant of Koshi."
theres this thing i encounter a lot as a textile artist, where I'll be giving a gift/showing my latest project and people immediately decide that they will never make something like that. that maybe i figured it out but there's a limited # of people who can learn how to crochet and they just didn't make the cut. and it's kinda pissing me off. a lot of these trades are starting to fade away (death of older artists, industrialization, etc etc) and it upsets me that some people are willing to let their opportunity to make things they want to make go just because they don't know how yet. i taught myself embroidery from youtube and Pinterest. i taught myself how to sew and draft patterns and tailor. i taught myself how to follow crochet tutorials on youtube and eventually how to read the books. I'm not some blessed prophet of the gods sent with natural skills to create. (hell I'd even say im a beginner at most of the things i do, but we're getting there) and trust me there are PILES of scrap fabric and projects from when i didn't quite know what i was doing and just. fucking tried anyways. moral is. if you want to make something i swear to god you can figure it out. youtube is your best friend. books. google. people around you, people you know. just don't give up before you've even started
yesterday at the game shop someone asked me when I started 3D printing. I told them a couple years ago, it was really easy to get into, sometimes I make things for commission, etc etc
then this person, this child, looked me square in the face and said "do you think it's too late for me to start? I'm almost 17..."
almost 17
ALMOST. SEVEN. TEEN.
when I tell you my soul left my body over this child, this mere not-even-17 year old, thinking they were already too old to start a new hobby, lemme tell you, I did not know how to respond
so i need yall to repeat after me
it is never too late to start a new hobby
you wanna learn to crochet at 47? go off king! learn to paint at 69? nice! learn embroidery on your death bed?? it is literally never too late!! you don't even have to be good. it's absolutely wonderful to see people who are just ok or even bad at something doing that something unabashedly and at whatever age they happen to be
