before you go to bed tonight I want you to remember that it took a lot of courage to leave behind what’s not for you anymore. If you’re strong enough to let go, then you’ll be strong enough to find what’s next for you. you’ve got this, good night.
Well, you know, some bathroom graffiti offers insight.
Red marker handwriting on a bathroom wall. Text reads:
“Boss made a dollar
Granddad made a dime
But that was a poem
From a simpler time.Boss made a thousand
Gave pa a cent
But that penny paid the mortgage
Or at least it paid the rentNow Boss makes a million
And gives us jack
Smugly blames the workers
For the labor that he lacks.”And the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls.
You have got to be FUCKING kidding me!! Holyshit bro… these motherfuckers are too comfortable with price increases…
ppl are like “the price of games makes sense if you consider how much time and work goes in to them” and i am here to tell you that just like animation, tv, comics, music, every other kind of media, the price tag does not reflect the artist’s paycheck. the only wallets getting fatter are at the top, and they are fatter now than they’ve ever been. support indie and learn to steal or go without
Also we used to have multiple video stores in every town where you simply rented any brand new game you wanted for $5-10.
The one I grew up with had a late fee of $1 a day so my mom would just let me keep a game until I was finished with it, because that never ever exceeded the cost of buying it new. This is what we all did.
It’s shocking how easily something that useful was so completely murdered by streaming services. Nobody wanted to keep cheaply renting games??
You used to be able to rent the consoles too but now consoles demand you make a user account. Yker save data used to only be on a memory card but now that’s only accessible with the user account.
The next time you’re watching this masterful scene I want you to remember that 3D objects in the computer have no physical properties and can clip through each other without care. Which means that every stretch of skin, every forceful kiss, every tender hand placement, every single physical touch and movement has to be meticulously crafted and executed flawlessly by the animators to ensure that it looks realistic. It boggles my mind at how much work was put into every single frame of this scene and I thank the animators for their service.
it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don’t even know if it’s just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.
Hey i’m a fashion design student so i have tons and tons of pdfs and docs with basic sewing techniques, pattern how-tos, and resources for fabric and trims. I’ve compiled it all into a shareable folder for anyone who wants to look into sewing and making their own clothing. I’ll be adding to this folder whenever i come across new resources

Updated just now with new hand sewing resources (mainly buttonholes) and textbook pdfs on fashion history, fashion illustration, and thinking through designs!
OP I owe you my life
OP you are the greatest person currently in my life. You beautiful, thoughtful creature.
i’ll see a man with long hair and remember i’m not above temptations of the flesh
i need pepple to understand that in the first place leather has always been made from the byproducts of butchering animals for meat, otherwise the skin is just tossed and unused. there were some companies farming for leather for a while, particuarly alligator leather, but those were not the norm. peta did so much harm in their campaigns against leather as a concept (its not unethical. yoi get the skin when an animal dies. thats why most leather clothes in the usa are cow leather, bc thats the biggest meat animal here) that its almost impossible to buy anything “leather” that isnt made of plastic that it so fragile and shitty that the very Thread Holding It Together rips the fibers apart. it will last for maybe a year two if youre lucky, and wont biodegrade and was made out of something that isnt naturally occurring in the first place and is one of the biggest causes of pollution globally
i do not care if you personally think nobody should slaughter or eat animals, it is Going to happen anyway. you cannot be so obtuse thst you think making more plastic that causes pollution endless damage to the animals you claim to care about so much is better than omnivorous human beings eating other animals and using their bodies completely.
