smooshybread:

Behold, my ridiculous Chindogu project! This assignment was crazy: we had one week to come up with a chindogu (aka a useless invention), make a physical prototype of it, and then make roughly a minute-long advertisement for it. I was one of the only people who chose to animate the ad, although as you can see, the animation is as minimal as possible (and pretty glitchy) because this was all done in a week. You might have to turn up the sound; the levels changed a bit when I uploaded it online.

Oh, also, my chindogu started out as an extra hand to rest your head on when you’re tired in class (my prototype was basically an inflated rubber glove that you could strap onto your shoulder), not this extremely sad product, but my professor wanted me to push it into the realm of absurdity, so there you go haha.

i am in love with you julia

I’M NOT DOWN WITH THIS STATEMENT. AS USUAL, FASHION MAGAZINES ARE ENDORSING BODY-SHAMING. BODY SHAMING HAPPENS IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TOO. FUCK. WHO WANTS THEIR NATURAL BODY TO BE COMPARED TO A CORPSE? TO THE WOMEN WHO ARE NATURALLY SKINNY, THIS MUST BE HURTFUL. TO THE WOMEN WHO ARE SICK WITH AN ED, THIS STATEMENT MAY ALSO BE VERY VERY TRIGGERING. IN GENERAL, THIS STATEMENT AND ILLUSTRATION COMES ACROSS AS CALLOUS AND INSENSITIVE.

When beginning a tattoo apprenticeship, fruits are usually practiced on before skin.

And also, these just look cool.

i got bitten by a baby yesterday… see, she was eating peanuts but decided to play chipmunk and keep them in her mouth for over an hour. she refused to actually eat them or spit them out. as her mother was heading out the door i asked her what she does to solve this problem and she responds, “oh i just fish around in her mouth and do a clean sweep from cheek to cheek to get everything out aaaand she doesn’t really like it”. this is how i got bitten, and all the time this cutie with a devilish smile on her face!

“I suppose it is good for the soul to be hurt and perplexed perpetually. I know at least that I miss you damnably: that is a good fixed star. I do, Virginia; and would rather be hurt by that, and have something solid to hold on to, than flounder in a quicksand that never bruises but only smothers.”

- Vita Sackville-West in a letter to Virginia Woolf, 9 February 1927 (via courcel)
