meowdy, and here's a little art challenge for december my minnows and i have been cooking up! i know month long art challenges can be kind of intimidating to some people, so i figured making a week long one could encourage people to give longer challenges a try!

if you'd like to share your designs, please do so to '#brush week 2025'! ill be checking the tag and sharing some of the cool ones i see!

i think therapy as a psuedo-deific force in the more modern generations worldview is really exemplied in like. how people will say to you "youre a freak, go to therapy" and when you say "actually ive talked to my therapist abt this and theyve told me its a good way to process my issues" and they respond "well youre therapist is feeding into your mental illness and needs to have thier license revoked 😡😡😡 thats not real therapy." and it becomes very clear they are not thinking of the material realities of therapy as a interaction and dynamic, and more of Therapy as a nebulous "make you normal" genie.

What would a Yankee Candle go for in ancient Greece?

tbh the most confusing thing about it to them would probably be the glass that the candle is contained in. They might try to buy information about glass from you.

Yeah basically

Yeah I should’ve clarified (pun intended). They had glass in the ancient world especially in Rome and Egypt but it was basically super heated sand and color additives put in a mold and often looked opaque and kinda lumpy. Even if it was blown like it was in some regions it wouldn’t have looked like modern glass.

Clear blown glass like you’d see a modern scented candle contained in wasn’t invented until the late Middle Ages and certainly wasn’t mass produced until the 1500s and even then places like Venice that had knowledge of these techniques literally forbid their glassmakers from leaving their city or region so other people couldn’t make it, forcing artificial scarcity and making it a very expensive material.

So if you showed a yankee candle to an Ancient Greek, especially one from a city or something, they’d be like burning scented wax okay not something I’d do but it makes sense. Also how the fuck is that glass transparent.

Like imagine if someone brought you something weird but understandable contained in a material that they said was made out of wood and you could tell that it’s clearly made out of wood they’re not lying about that but it was also completely transparent and see through with no visible flaws. That’s about the level of weird we’re talking about here.

It isnt flawless, but transparent wood does already exist actually

What the fuck I feel like a medieval peasant seeing an iPhone

I think what really makes Over The Garden Wall stick in my brain boils down to how it says, "despair is a liar and not nearly as powerful as it pretends"

the show's climax is weighty and good for a lot of reasons (big fan of how pathetic the Beast looks in the moment we see it in the light) but the bit with the lantern is my favourite. You kill the Beast by doing the thing it said would destroy you! If you chain yourself to what it says is necessary, you'll never get free! You have to risk total ruin, look into the darkness and then you can kill it!

I've seen this at least once every day for the last three days, and every time, I absolutely lose it at Toph's "STAIRS"

everyone's "well-adjusted" and "mentally healthy" until the "sometimes I wish I'd never been born at all" part of Bohemian Rhapsody comes on

sitting anti-kink posters down in front of a wrestling match and explaining kayfabe to them with the patience of a preschool teacher

You see that one? He's called the "heel." He looks mean and says a lot of scary things, but it's not real and he's actually very nice. When he says "I'm going to break you in half" you don't have to be scared because it's pretend. These two talked about this beforehand, and now they're playing pretend together. Can you think of any other situations that might be like this?

no that part was real

My love for Thomas the green moray eel who lives at the New England Aquarium continues and grows and knows no bounds. He is my muse. This is a plow book I made featuring my guy for my art books class, I love how I can fold him up in many funky ways

gun to your head, you HAVE to make an R-rated scooby doo movie. What do you do

completely normal silly movie but shaggy hits a bong in every scene

its a different bong each time BTW

every single conversation i’m forced into on this website is either “guac is extra” or “you hate pancakes”
