It was Cinco de Mayo*

C-C-C-

CONTRADICTIONS.

What a week @___@~~~

AND THEN ANIME OASIS HAPPENED AND THIS WEEKEND GONNA KICK ASS YO

I didn't take any pictures because my phone still hates everything; tomorrow I will hunt down an outlet and camp that delicious electro-juice, as the kids say.

I CAN'T STOP HEARING THIS; HERE, YOU HEAR TOO <3

Sat and watched the summer corn grow

Too hot inside

Too hot outside

Lazy days when he said "let's go for a ride."

We'd sail on Spirit Lake

Me, my pappy, and his lemonade

It is all over my brain

THIS is amazing, courtesy of a dear friend:

WATCH THIS IMMMMMEDIATELY

I wish my Plamya costume would have come together this year, but at least I found a good jacket; I'll keep an eye out for other stuff for next year maybe? :s

Why you gotta be difficult, Plamya

I'm sorry baby; please put down the radish

Pre-beer AO:

Post-beer AO:

WELL?!

Guess who is having the best time

Hand
in
hand,
let's build a wonderland
no-one else will understand.
Smoke and ash and dust and sand
is not the plot
that I have planned.





*It's not Cinco de Mayo. Look, there's a calendar right on your computer, gosh.

I can't unfold the layers of mystery / or piece together the tragedy of history

First off this most beautiful thing needs to happen:

MY SPIRIT ANIMAL NYU~

Did you know...

• that the TMBG station on Pandora is the best goddamn station ever?
• Seriously: the first time I listened to it I heard Women and Men (one of my favorite TMBG songs) followed immediately by Still Alive.
• uhhh, do you see that Bohemian Rhapsody video up there, because same station.
• Today it played Naked and Famous (which I somehow hadn't heard before), followed immediately by The Lumberjack Song, and it made me so happy -- despite getting TWO FLAT TIRES TODAY AAAAAAUGGGGHHHHHhhhhhrrrrrrr.

This, via Lego:

who won like that is even a question

My other spirit animal ♥

the portents

What's being portentendered?

...

...

Oh, just TICKETS TO EVERYTHING*, OMGFUCKYEAH

(I was looking at the art tables page on the website, and my friend Brittany is going to be there! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER OMG)

ALSO

ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Two everythings.

They seemed very confused about playing Boise, which I can totally understand.

This was on the desktop, so you may have it as well. NEET NEET.

Never underestimate humanity, friend.

There will be more things later; today was kind of awful (see: bike problems, walking home [only partway, thank goodness] sleep deprivation, extreme social awkwardness, just...so, so much sore and tired ; ; )
/falls over

Knock, knock -- open up the door: it's real

Awr. :c

In semi-related news: THIS HAPPENED TO ME

OHSHITWHERESMYDISTAFF

(o...ok, it was super windy and there were a lot of power lines, so trust me: they looked way more similar before I could snap the picture >.> )

Wait, what Steam is up again

If the only thing you cats did was came out to play: stay out my way

The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.

AUGH. I don't have a comic for you, whoever-reads-this; I am terrible. I am the worst. I have lame excuses that you don't want to read, so I'll just say: gomen, baby. Gomen.

Last Sunday night I had adventures, which were direly needed. They involved gothy folks in fabulous costumes, tasty beverages, posters of saved by the bell characters, motorboating?! and a...well, let's say a wide variety of conversation. I wore fancy shoes and didn't fall down? And I met people! And motorboat...ed some of them? That isn't really something I go around doing, mind you; it was at their insistence -- but it was a fun night. So, that is...something.

OMG YOU GUYS THIS IS THE BEST; WHY HAVEN'T YOU PLAYED THE LAST DOOR YET?!

LOOK AT THAT, OMFG. YOU CAN'T TELL HERE, BUT THEY GAVE ME AN ANIMATED BEE SWARM AND EVERYTHING. THESE GUYS ARE AMAZING; THEY ARE WIZAAAAARDSSSSSS  *Explodes from happiness*

And now, a Poetic Service Announcement:


<Barry White Voice>

Baby,
I know I work at a bookstore, but...
let me tell you somethin':
I don't care
what kind of books you read --
I'm not gonna
judge you, girl
just
swing those
oh those
honey-sweet eyes
right on over
to some William Gibson sometime;
that's all I'm askin' of you, baby.

</Barry White Voice>

Hey, these reinterpretations are pretty brilliant

I don't know where I belong;

I don't know where I went wrong --

but I can sing a song

Glaciers melting in the dead of night // Supermassive blog post

I have another little comic thing in the works that'll probably be up in the next few days -- but there was just so much other stuff to post! O_O

Servant x Service is about some folks working in a ward office (basically... Japan's health/welfare, from what I can gather?) -- it's basically how the employees' relationships evolve around a job that centers on the joys of dealing with the public. So, you know. I dig that.

Oh yeah, this is familiar territory right here.

Also their manager is a stuffed bunny*, because anime. Also ♥ LUUUUCYYYYY ♥
*(not the bunny pictured)

INTERLUDE FOR BOOK PICTURES

Now back you your irregularly scheduled weeaboo

O why yes that is me on the top left. Yozora y you do dis ; ;

The above is Hanasaku Iroha, which has been a quick watch so far, because it's delightful. It's about a girl (et al.) working at an inn at a hot springs -- which sounds really simple, and it is mostly about the characters' relationships... but I don't know, it's just wonderful.

 Yes, even Ohana has grown on me even though she drives me crazy sometimes. I mean, I get that her naivete is kind of her draw but GODDAMNIT OHANA. Also WHY HAVEN'T THEY KICKED OUT THAT WRITER YET HE IS SUCH A SLEAZEBALL. Now, some Nako.

A...also hey how about some Sakura Trick

"So, what is Sakura Trick about?" Well, friend...

I, uh.

Don't judge me.

My friend at work recommended Rat Queens, and from what I found online, it looks amazing. I got confirmation of this when they SOLD OUT AND CANCELLED MY PREORDERARGLBRARRGH

So yes, I am already in love RQ and I haven't even read it yet.

You know about Oglaf. You BETTER know about Oglaf.

I'd like to conclude with random stuff, beginning with what I ASSUME AND HOPE IS A MOVIE POSTER FOR THIS SUMMER'S SHOT AT THE BEST WACKY BUDDY COMEDY OF ALL GODDAMN TIME.

Someone please make my everyone's dream come true

!

This was...for a thread (top shelf of your bookshelf, no organizing):

Nobody replied, but that was 100% fine because I'd mostly expected angry rants about what a pleb I am. So this story had a surprisingly happy ending, in that I was on 4chan and wasn't immediately drowned in endless buckets of liquid hate! Is this a sign of progress? P...probably not. Let's wrap this up with somethin' pretty: 

FUCKING PIXEL ART DRAGON OHMYGOD WHAT HOW EVEN WHAT

I thought I was a fool for no one

But -- ooh baby -- I'm a fool for you
