very petty whinge before i go off to shower etc.:
i thought i had been so clever, building two sheds in stardew valley, so i can put more casks in to age wine BUT NO. casks only work in YOUR BASEMENT. and it only let me know this until after i had made and placed a bunch and was all "nope sorry can't put anything in these here"
GRUMBLE GRUMBLE.
i wish there was a 'break down' option in stardew valley so i could recoup the materials a little but oh well, i'll just make them keg and jam houses

re: in which a wigglytuff goes "capitalism, ho?"
@InspectorCaracal tbh i will keep that in mind, i know one of my tumblr pals is doing a lot of living off patreon money - so it could be an opportunity to go to them all "hey, what if for the higher tiers we did a goodie box"
i like assembling shit too honestly, it's just that right now physical effort is not so good LOL. once i get to where i can drive on my own again i think i could manage well
@eightbitsamurai@elekk.xyz i really like it, but i loathe the new sequel stuff lol. it was a good movie because of jim henson's artistry. there are *no* regular human actors in the *entire* film, it is *all* puppets, and he did a lot of really pioneering work on puppetry. it's worth watching for the "holy shit" factor on that alone imho.
of course now it's become just the next cash cow instead of an artist using a movie to push his art forward so :(
in which a wigglytuff goes "capitalism, ho?"
i feel like i've definitely developed a skill of niffling through aliexpress for cool shit - and more than that, niffling through *taobao* wish some success. if i could be my own importer so to speak, it's something that could work and be profitable, when i'm a bit more able-bodied and feel like i can consistently do a bunch of mail one week out of every month

the above is a recettear reference please don't kill me
anyway
it's just occurred to me that patreon would be a pretty great way to do a monthly subscription box type service on a small scale
monthly payments done automatically, different tier levels for different size boxes, even a little community feature so you can have people talking about what they got in their box and giving feedback...
in which a wigglytuff rails against the modern medical system
i'm about > < this close to calling up my pharmacy and chewing out whichever little airheaded trainee picks up, using phrases like "do you think i take this medication for fun? do you think taking adhd medicine to function is a thing i can do only when i feel like it? do you think it's an optional amusement?" and "when did you decide your new motto was 'we don't do the thing until you ask the third time, even if we told you we did'?"
my dog has been wandering around wanting to bark and play and you know what finally got her to settle down?
putting out the new blanket my mom got for me on my legs
it is the very soft velvety type and that is Her Favourite. she literally came running to sniff it and begged until i put my feet up so she could snuggle blanket
@reuters_worldnews@newsbots.eu i swear to fucking god every time you make a news reposting bot with no cws, you are declaring that your toes are forfeit and inviting all and sundry to come break into your house, chop all your toes off, cover all of your pets in non-toxic bubble gum in their fur, and shit in your kitchen sink
@InspectorCaracal yep, the decline in health has been a good thing to weed out the ol' friends list LMAO
and i think i emerged a wiser person in many respects, so i have that going for me at least!
@InspectorCaracal yeeeeah. it especially sticks in my craw of just how much of my art was for them, and now that i have functional friendships, my physical health is at the point where i can't just sit and draw doodles for hours even if i wanted to
ah well. c'est la vie, i guess
anyway i spent all that time trying to figure where i put some old pictures where i actually played a bit of a homebrew pathfinder game online for a bit, and i drew the Obligatory Beach Episode
which i was reminded of with the talk of liches, as one of the characters was a lich. and a lich in a bikini is approaching choice comedy
however i mostly just found older art and the reminder that i spent so much time drawing art for people who promptly kicked me to the curb so, yay for that?
oh hey something that actually holds up in #harpsbadoldart
this is the second commander shepard i have floating around, Indira Shepard
yes that IS an n7 saree
moments after this at some official function, udina made some comment about how "it's not a fancy dress party, she should leave the costume at home" that Indira overheard, and Liara spent the next 15 minutes holding her girlfriend back from Violence because That's Frowned On At Functions Where Champagne Is Served
some quick doodles of my WoW character, tho as of 2013 i'd mostly stopped playing
Harpalyce Bearwarden is why i go by harp most of the time online lmao
at this point in time i think i'd started drawing her with a little bit of boob but mostly muscle. my running gag has always been for her that she's near to flatchested, bowlegged, and takes a shower maybe once every couple of years, so is the direct opposite of the sexy lady night elf seen on screen lmao #harpsbadoldart
