I Just Finished Playing Night In The Woods For The Second Time And I Have Like A Hole In Me Now. This

Question

How would y'all feel about me posting some of my fits of the day? I'm goth but more in a 80's goth way because I can't afford anything but thrifted black clothes.

It doesn't matter which one either answer isn't gonna hurt my feelings.

Just learned what heavy petting is.

What the fuck guys.

Stop it.

Rose wouldn't make sense if she wasn't a diamond

hi this is a little rant about the things that would be plot holes unless Rose wasn't Pink Diamond/ little hints dropped by the team.

Renaldo literally says it in his little breakthrough moment after kidnapping Steven. He's set up to be crazy so no one including the fans believe him. (Not a great point but kinda funny)

Rose deflected a blast from THREEE OF THE DIAMONDS. She would be an insanely powerful if she wasn't a diamond.

Her healing tears. No other Rose Quartz or any Quartz is mentioned to have this power and every gem is made the same unless they're cooked too long. If every Quartz had that they'd spam it like no tomorrow.

Rose can float. I know Jasper and Amethyst aren't the same gem but they have the same powers. Both characters fall like rocks(hehe)

Pink Diamonds death itself has holes in the story. If you remember there's a moment during Stevens trial where a gem explains how it would have to be someone close to Pink to shatter her. Guards would be a problem, her pearl disappeared with no sign of shattering of being poofed, ECT.

Diamonds are powerful enough to to crush a gen with one finger. How would a simple sword shatter that strong of a being.

Anyway those are some of my opinions and reasons so hope you enjoy and I welcome (respectful) discourse

You know, an interesting tumblr transformation that's happened gradually, and which I've seen no one talk about: ask-culture has essentially dropped off to nothing.

By which I mean, asks used to be WAY more of the tumblr economy. They used to be more common to send, and receive, and see. They were integral to the collaborative, forum-like behavior of old tumblr communities, not even to speak on the HUGE number of ask-blogs that used to exist to only be interacted with in ask-form.

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

mfs when they can’t sexualize emo boys(and girls)

It is not hard to be weird guys.

Had a few folks interested in how I made the patches I posted for Solarpunk Aesthetic Week, so I thought I'd give y'all my step-by-step process for making hand-embroidered patches!

First, choose your fabric and draw on your design. You can use basically any fabric for this - for this project I'm using some felt I've had lying around in my stash for ages.

Next, choose your embroidery floss. For my patches I split my embroidery floss into two threads with 3 strands each, as pictured. You can use as many strands in your thread as you prefer, but for the main body of my patches I prefer 3 strands.

Next you're going to start filling your design using a back stitch.

First, put in a single stitch where you want your row to start.

Poke your needle up through the fabric 1 stitch-length away from your first stitch.

Poke your needle back down the same hole your last stitch went into so they line up end-to-end.

Repeat until you have a row of your desired length (usually the length of that colour section from one end to the other). Once you have your first row, you're going to do your next row slightly offset from your first row so that your stitches lay together in a brick pattern like this:

Make sure your rows of stitches are tight together, or you'll get gaps where the fabric shows through.

Rinse and repeat with rows of back stitch to fill in your patch design.

When you're almost to the end of your thread, poke your needle through to the back of the fabric and pull the thread under the back part of the stitching to tuck in the end. Don't worry if it looks messy - no one's gonna see the back anyway.

This next step is fully optional, but I think it makes the patch design really pop. Once your patch is filled in, you can use black embroidery floss to outline your design (or whatever colour you want to outline with - it's your patch, do what you want). I use the full thread (6 strands, not split) of embroidery floss to make a thicker outline.

I use the same back stitch I used to fill the piece to make an outline that adds some separation and detail. You could use most any 'outlining' stitch for this, but I just use back stitch because it's just easier for me to do.

Once you're finished embroidering your patch, it's time to cut it out!

Make sure to leave a little border around the edge to use for sewing your patch on your jacket/bag/blanket/whatever, and be careful not to accidentally cut through the stitches on the back of the patch.

If you have a sturdy enough fabric that isn't going to fray, you can just leave it like this. If not, I recommend using a whip stitch/satin stitch to seal in the exposed edges (I find that splitting your embroidery floss into 3-strand threads works best for this).

And then you're done! At this point you can put on iron-on backing if you want, or just sew it on whatever you wanna put it on. Making patches this way does take a long time, but I feel that the results are worth it.

Thanks for reading this tutorial! I hope it was helpful. If anyone makes patches using this method, I'd love to see them! 😁
