Harp the Wigglytuff @wigglytuffitout@computerfairi.es

like if it's just an excuse, don't pull this backhanded catty run-around. also it shouldn't exactly be a shocker if you show off something cool you bought for cheap, your audience might go "oh wow! where'd you get it?"

however if this person's already posted the info on patreon... then there's no need for a catty run-around! that's a potential customer! for god's sake! sell them shit! sell them the shit you have already made! the content you have produced! INSTEAD OF INSULTING THEM!

like, i may be coming from a very western lolita fashion point of view here - which is that taobao is the thing we all tangle with from time to time, and because we are all passionate about the fashion, we're happy to exchange information

if the idea is that you're trying to discourage the pain in the ass that is delving through your browsing history - fair dues. but just say that instead of "bitch sign up for my patreon, smh you guys expect shit for free?"

i am like unreasonably offended at shit a friend spotted on bird hellsite

i get that nobody is owed your time, and your time is money. however, if you show off "look at what i got on taobao for only 4 dollars!!!", you should probably expect people asking where you got it

and if your gig is using your patreon to show off the work you've done finding cool shit on taobao - for god's sake market yourself better than being rude to people interested in your product

listen it's a great painting technically and has many other merits but every time i see this particular version of Ophelia from Hamlet i crack the fuck up

i mean look at her face

that is not "the sweet release of death overtakes me". that is "oh.. my FUCKING god. bruh. BRUH. are you FUCKING KIDDING ME, hamlet? are you kidding me, hammie-wammie? just tossed in a bath bomb!! ohhh my god. okay, you've got the three minutes it'll take me to get out of here before i wreck your shit. fuck."

as for how my shoulder is feeling and my general vibe for this morning, please see attached picture for a summary

@InspectorCaracal ok that IS valid because i would bring up the research i've done in getting there, complete with references to medieval literature explaining carefully how i've already put in symbolism about his quasi-redemption that is the crux of the story being akin to the split between ysengrim the wolf and reynard the fox and i've done art already yonks ago and wait where is everyone going -

@InspectorCaracal nah that one's easy, one and done in krayt dragon

yes i have thought extensively about this

yes it does come up in the abominably long fic i'm writing slowly at some point

@InspectorCaracal THE FMAB ONE IS SO GOOD and the rest are just so applicable to so many situations they are good to have handy

i mean, i feel like i'm 3/4 of the way there. if you push over that soapbox so i can climb on it, i can get started explaining how you cannot understand anakin skywalker/darth vader as a character without recognizing the massive class issues and related trauma that he, as a former slave boy, carries with him, see i have it all written down here -

but also i feel like i will have fully matured and come into my own on mastodon when, eventually, i will emerge from a chrysalis of leftist political thought, and start a 155 part thread on how you cannot understand the tragedy of anakin skywalker unless you look at it through the lens of marxist theory

i also have pinned these two things which i feel mastodon will appreciate

@InspectorCaracal WELL THEN, TIME TO CLOCKWORK ORANGE 'EM THROUGH KNOWYOURMEME

@InspectorCaracal this is why friend discord servers are great, because half the pins are "harp i found this for you" and then i yell HELL YES IT ME and slap it in my pins

i'm going to hope and pray that either a) uncanny pixel wigglytuff eye contact is okay for most folks, or b) people who are bothered have p..probably... already um.... blocked me

i........................ may have realized..................... that my avatar this entire time has had eye contact which is a bit of a faux pas

@InspectorCaracal I KNOW MY BRAND

IT UHHH

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

not a meme, but something i also have pinned which i feel is emblematic of my personal interests in a telling, though not really flattering, way

http://www.erosblog.com/2017/02/12/dildo-shopping-in-1655/ this examination of a 1655 sex manual, with link to full scans of it online

and now, a summary of myself, based on the top four memes i've posted to my channel on a discord full of friends

@InspectorCaracal "and what was the name of my dear son, your fierce rival, again? BOOGERFACE, you say! ah yes, that's it exactly!"

and now, a #lolitafashion meme.
