Fuck your Mitsubishi / A girl is tipsy

I've run across a lot of comics I want to read, recently, as well as some lovely boots I can't afford (for which I BLAME STRAMURDAY AND ALL THE MODCLOTH LINKS, GOSH).
Speaking of which: TODAY WAS STRAMURDAY! I almost forgot, because my calendar is broken, but I made it to the stram anyway. WOT WOT!

SPEAKING OF STRAM:



 FUCKING LOOK AT THAT! Courtesy of Charmcaser; CHARMY ROCKS! :D

ALSO!


>tfw surrounded by wizards




And now some COMPLETELY UNRELATED THINGS:

WHUR?!

Fuck your...dragons? ...waaait



THOSE REPULSIVE BAKERS, ALL FULLA FUNGI

SO MUCH WINE; I'M OUT.

My lady river // There's nothing I can do; / there's nothing I can do

Well hello there.
The day before yesterday was a little gloomy, but things got CRAZY (thunder + hail + sunshine) and yesterday was actually pretty nice -- the gloom still had a grip on my mood though, so I spent some time reading up on the deck in the sunshine -- and today is awesome, and I'm probably going back up there when I'm done posting. :3
Speaking of reading, check my spoils! I got me some wicked spoils lately:


Aside from Proust was a Neuroscientist (which I've already read), they're pretty much on rotation depending on what I happen to grab first -- though at this rate I'll probably end up finishing Savage Harvest first.

H...hey do you guys know about retail

also do you know we sell caffeine and sugar



I also found a bunch of articles I wanted to post:

You must be mad, or you wouldn't have come here!
How to secret service
99 problems and Fukushima is definitely one
Open source awesomeness
Whole Foods is new to our area, but: goddamn, seriously.
Fuck you, Syngenta
Onions and IMs
LITERALLY JUST A SWARM OF ROBOTS

Water and sapwood

Hello, lassies.

I'm in a bit of a slump. I've had some time to work on things, but my sleep schedule's so out of whack that it hasn't really happened :/ I guess I have the weekend, though -- my brother's going out of town, so I'll have the place to myself for a few days. In the meantime, here are some things:

The first three were drawn by this person, who is fantastic.








Speaking of TF2, this is my new wall spray:

WCZP is getting really crazy and fun, by the way, and I love it:
JESUS KATE WTF

This one I drew awhile back, because...well, I'd watch it:



And a truefactoid brought to you by being hungover:

Habibi / The burn

So my fear of dying in the void of space* just went a level beyond because hey, you could drown horrifically in the void of space instead. Oh boy.



If you were a season,
you would be in bloom --
I wish I had good reason to see you soon.
No need to convince me
that you were a catch:
I bought my ticket. I'm sold.
At last.









Who was it that said
that love conquers all?
Oh
he was a fool, 'cause
it doesn't, at all.
Should I believe you told a lie?
(On the way to my heart,  and
on the way back)



*Yes, I know earth itself is in the void of space and we will thus technically die there. This does not make things any better.

Young and stupid and raised by wolves / Cops and wizards

Well I guess this is post #100, so I'm going to start with some pretty, pretty things:


This is in British Columbia. My current dream is to someday work-at-or-own a bookstore up there, and spend my days off wandering around fucking elven forests.



Or metal album covers.








Oh Wizard Barristers, you are ridiculous. Also, Quinn is a total badass:



YEEEEAH

That's it from me for now... I have a few things in the works that I'm going to try to put up later this week, though. Happy Wednesday!


And oh, don't you wanna love and don't you wanna feel?

I remember: you were reckless,
you were hungry, you were real, you were
so uptight.
Listen,
I don't mind.

Humans are turning into wizards

WIZARDS, I SAY.

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS GOING TO DO TO MINECRAFT WHAT THE FUCK


Hey. Hey kid. You like articles? Well I got the good shit right here.

"We need to update our nightmares"

Also:
"Gosh, dad, I'm really glad you took the time to explain the Feast of the Hungry Ghosts to us in such minutely comprehensive detail."

So there is some wizardry.
Nature is ALREADY a wizard; ARE YOU READY FOR SOME NATURE:











Whoever designed this poster is a wizard (and now I need to see this movie):




THESE GUYS ARE WIZARDS:


"NEEEE~ ISAAC-KUN" "NANDAAAAIIII MIRIA"


...and this is me:
Yep. Well, I mean, metaphorically.

This has been your random sampling of things from my image folder. TO DRAW TOWN! /gallops away



In five years time, I might not know you --
in five years time, we might not speak.
In five years time, we might not get along;
in five years time, you might
just prove me wrong.

Love love love / wherever you go

Took some books back to the Library! today, then I stopped for a drink and a nice bloke (the bartender) bought me a G&T... so that was nice :3 It was really pretty out today.
A couple of those library books I'd like to purchase...but I think one of them might be out of print, which is a shame:
"To find the echo of order in The Rite, we have to pay exquisite attention. If we fail to listen carefully, if we tune out its engineered undulations, then the whole orchestra becomes nothing more than a mutiny of noise. The music disappears. This is what Stravinsky wanted. 'To listen is an effort,' he once said, 'and just to hear is no merit. A duck hears also.' "

You have to respect a piece that causes an actual riot. Thanks, Stravinsky. Thravinsky.

I am also making a few things. Here's one of them!









"I'm going to make you an offer you can't refuse."


Well, I can't argue with Hoshimiya Kate: it's anime time.

Come down from the mountain; you have been gone too long





"Emergency workers report that the damage from Valentine's day is worse than previously projected. They describe bodies, strewn upon the ground, covered in glitter and paper cupids. Entire buildings collapsed, leaving only rubble and chalky candy hearts."


Settle down with me by the fire of my yearning

Pandora's music box / The blues are still blue spotted tail

I stumbled across a manga recommendation thread on SA (via a Retsutalk episode) and found some good stuff...I'm still reading through a few of them, but man...Goons definitely know what they're about -- masters of all things, etc. THANKS, THE GOONS!


In Qualia the Purple, Marii thinks people look like robots. Hey, that's swell -- but are you guys ready...FOR FRIENDSHIP



Baaaaaw.

Friendship (and borderline yuri), philosophy, and quantum physics... what more could a gal ask for?!


YEEEEAH REPRESENT

...aaaand this is one from Curvy I've been meaning to put up.

So! Some good finds there; apparently my to-read queue ISN'T BIG ENOUGH.
...It's nice to have the distraction, though; I got a mean case of the feels this past week, for which I (mostly) blame winter. It was so snowy here they ended up cutting a bunch of shifts at work... which at least meant I didn't have to bike in the snow, so that's a plus... and I have some good default things on the internet now for when I'm feeling down and need some cheering up. :3 They are the best things.

Music time!

All my nightmares escaped my head

 
We come in doing cartwheels
we all crawl out by ourselves
I...
I felt like I could just fly
(but nothing happened every time I tried)

Dare to be one of us, girl,
facing the android's conundrum.

You don't know how long
I've been watching the lantern dim,
starved of oxygen -- so
give me your hand, and let's
jump out the window. 


I left my lady in the launderette
you can put some money on it,
you can place a little bet that
when I see my lady
the black will be white and
the white will be black
but the blues are still blue

Suddenly, it was 4 am

...so I guess screw you, future self? To be fair: you should probably have seen this coming based on our shared past experience of screwing over future selves.

Happy 4 am! Remember: DO NOT. APPROACH. THE DOG PARK.
