Harp the Wigglytuff @wigglytuffitout@computerfairi.es

y'know, out of all the hurt-comfort whump bullshit i'm planning for this eventual botw fic, you know what's too sad for me to actually put in? actually sad enough to consider cutting it?

in among all the copious gore and angst?? what is the part where i'm like MAYBE THAT IS TOO MUCH ???

"dammit harp," you complain, "there is more to irish heritage than love of potatoes"

yes of course but i only got a small percentage remaining in among all the generic wonderbread white, so i am left with only Potato Lust

additional evidence: was watching a show about people trying to eat ww2 era food in the uk, in among the ration book explanations, they had put up a poster from the time

the poster had a potato cheerfully informing everyone that he makes a lovely suit

i was distracted the entire scene because i was thinking "they needed POSTERS? they needed POSTERS to tell them POTATO SOUP IS GOOD? i'm WAY ahead of y'all my dudes, WAY AHEAD"

"so harp," you say, "why are you so sure that you're likely scots-irish if your family's geneological data points to the only firm conclusion of 'possibly sprung forth from the ground like soldiers from dragon's teeth to be hella white in south carolina in the 1800s'?"

i just had the thought

'potatoes.... yes... the potatoes will make my soul be back in my body...'

it's

fairly obvious

#prayforharp2k19 that dinner - shepard's pie with turkey mince and tater tots on top instead of mashed potatoes - reaches down and revives my painfully white soul so that i can actually draw something tonight or something along those lines before my head pops like a popcorn kernel because of all the constipated creativity up in there

the combination of faulty memory and common alts means that, very occasionally, i have moments of "nani the fuck, i thought i blocked you a long time ago"

O'Henry's Gift of the Magi except the tragic irony is the spoons i woulda spent drawing i used up completely finding where my tablet pen fucked off to

having enough spoons to do my facial care routine does SO much to make me feel like a human and not a screamy blob

while it makes me laugh it's gonna butter Somebody's parsnips out there, and now thanks to rule 34, it has spontaneously generated somewhere just ready to be found

you're welcome, citizens! my work here is doooone

real person fanfiction frontiers: emmymadeinjapan off youtube, gently mommy domme-ing paul hollywood off the great british bake-off by fixing increasingly ludicrous recipes and/or MREs and making him eat some

anyway i was going to post these 30 minutes ago but then i got distracted and forgot i was doing that so!

the Enstickering Continues

it's nnnnearing completion i think. there are only a couple obvious 'bald spots' and i ordered some tiny stickers which i hope will be able to take care of those

but also, construct your own joke about how the bootleg copyright-what-copyright pokemon stickers are doing great, while the officially licensed sticker book stickers are wanting to peel off

(i'm not actually mad at them, it's prolly been a hot minute since the book was published/made, also it's sticking to fake-lumber-plastic stuff so tbh i'm more amazed that shit's actually sticking to it at all)

"don't fuckin test me," i whisper tenderly to the pokemon stickers i have stuck on my purse rack as they look about to come unstuck, "i have mod podge, don't FUCKIN test me"

anyway sorry for inevitably spamming you, innocent folks of the fediverse, because i got myself an iced coffee and they didn't have decaf so here i am with less than 5 hours of sleep under my belt but much caffeine haHA

(what actually happened is the place i'm going to for physical therapy this time is the place where all the student athletes go, so there is Extreme Money in play. they don't have just icepacks out of a freezer. oh no. they have this machine that circulates water through an appropriately-sized hooked-up pouch shaped like whatever it needs to be for your shoulder or what have you, all at a consistent temperature. like a sous vide machine. except in my case cold)
