    Fucking weird is always pretty awesome! I'm not a huge fan of the "gross and offensive for the sake of gross and offensive" type of thing but there's a few bizarro things I enjoy - you ever read Carlton Mellick's "Quicksand House"? I loved that one.

    I haven't read any Carlton Mellick but I'll have to check his work out at some point!

    Tie goes around the base of the neck, so I'd say the former.

    Speaking of edgy books, I've been going through the catalogue of Severed Press, and it occurred to me it's the modern answer to the original Weasels Ripped My Flesh and its ilk. I've actually already made a pretty solid start on writing one myself!

    Friendly note to horror writers; fucking with the general standards of nature is great, but it helps to occasionally remind the reader that's what you're doing, so I'm not left wondering why you're trying to scare me with a non-venomous creature which averages out at about three feet long.

    Does the tumblr app not have a search function anymore or did I miss something?

    swirlingflight inane analysis and story spinning is my passion

    Mine still does, the magnifying glass in the bottom. It's pretty limited these days, a lot of content doesn't show up in it for various reasons, but I don't think it's been updated out of existence.

    If anyone is a fan of way of the house husband, this is essentially a live action of the first issue :P

    Maybe I should try starting my Etsy again now I've got time, but I'm scared of fucking up again.

    does anyone have any pdfs of books about CPTSD they could cough and accidentally drop into my DMs? it'd be a big help, I think I'm ready to attack more shit. or any kind of books around that kind of subject matter tbh? it might take multiple coughs and drops, I'm not sure. :V but who knows, maybe there's some other people aside from me who'd love to accidentally stumble upon dropped information as well.

    Painting metallic textures is so hard; why must everything I want to paint be metallic?

    I don't know how it could best be implemented, but I feel we as a society ought to teach kids and teens to recognise the symptoms of mental illnesses in themselves. It would have saved me a lot of hassle when my POCD kicked in. Hm.

    Apparently the Black Fly song is not common knowledge among my coworkers, and so I bring it to you all

    plus they said this over a video call so I had to look a little presentable (I thought it was just going to be voice call!)
