"don't mass reblog/like :/" coward. fool. somebody just went through and liked and reblogged 64 things from my blog in the span of half an hour at most. and i've never felt more alive in my life

This isn't Instagram, my darlings. It's not considered creepy (except by people imported from Instagram and frankly they need to learn the culture HERE before trying to boss anyone around) or weird or particularly distressing. Many of us don't even look at our notifications to realize that you've done it.

And frankly, I put that on my blog to bring me some joy. If it brings you joy too, put it on your blog along with the next fifty posts in the same theme. (If you're reblogging my fics, thank you, I love you 3000.)

Every couple of months I open my phone to “99+ notifications for Tumblr!” and think, odd. I did not post any art today. And it’s always someone who found my blog and went through the past 3 YEARS of doodles and liked every. Single. One.

Sometimes I like to count how many likes it took before they said “fuck it I gotta follow her,” and it makes me kick my feet in happiness.

So have at it, babes. That’s what it’s there for.

I see no lies

Oh god damn it I didn’t even notice.

daily affirmations: at least im not 14 🙏❤️

Who knew sewing an elastic waistband on a skirt for 2-4 hours would give you a hand cramp and hurt your fingertips? :o

I do these before sewing or playing my viola (really anything that involves heavy use of fingers) and it's made a huge difference in stiffness, soreness, and endurance

Also hey, cultural history time: The reason why cats are associated with women wasn't ultimately and originally about women as sly, cruel, or capricious creatures, but about cats as mothers to their kittens. And yes, sure, reducing womanhood to motherhood and a woman's worth to her fertility is Much Bad, but nonetheless I want to stress that the reason cats became the symbol animal of so many goddesses and were associated with women from thereon wasn't over some "cats and women are sly and selfish, dogs and men are straightforward and loyal uwu" dichtonomy.

It was about cats' tendency to go "I am 4kg of whoop-ass and if you try to touch my eight beautiful children I will fucking kill you."

It amazes me how many teslas I see out and about. Like you guys bought one for real? On god? No joke?????

Hey human, I love you
