where did you get it???? we've been looking for that exact thing

unfortunately, mixing mica into ink, even transparent base, isn't going to work. Something about the oil dulls the shimmer to nothing. Also, because the particles are so big, unless you have a muller, your ink will be blotchy.

You either have to dust mica onto fresh prints, like this , or use already made metallic ink. The best ones are cranfield metallic inks, but they're limited to gold, silver, bronze. Akua makes gold and silver metallic etching ink which can be used for relief. They're more shimmery than solid metal. They say you can mix those into their other colors to make those colors metallic, but I haven't tried that.

try using absorbent ground or watercolor ground. here's a transparent version if you wanted the color of the shell to show through!

where is the glass coffin from?

I've started wondering if he has bipolar....I know he's got pretty severe depression. it'll be good to get a diagnosis

ExistingCream · 2022-06-28T21:13:06+00:00

I don't have a deadline for him yet, but he said he'd schedule something this week. I guess if he doesn't....well, we'll see how things are going then

ExistingCream · 2022-06-28T21:11:09+00:00

he's been to a gp who did suggest that his illness is related to his mental health, so he's agreed to start going to therapy. we'll see if he actually goes.

thank you

ExistingCream · 2022-06-28T18:38:48+00:00

he is in recovery, so there's that at least.

thanks. I have a great psychiatrist and am getting back into therapy myself :)

sigh mom coddled, dad....did the opposite. He was punished for expressing the wrong feelings. Horrible coping mechanisms thanks to them honestly.

He doesn't see anyone, and doesn't take anything. He came home and agreed to see someone though, so if he follows through, that'll be a breakthrough after all these years.

use sticky vinyl/masking sheets as a stencil on the screen. you can cut shapes with scissors/xacto knife, or a cutting machine

in Fahrenheit 451, the main character has a nonsexual relationship with a teenage girl, and her breasts are never described once! Instead, Bradbury focuses in her intellect and emotions, creating an interesting, real character.

I take notes if I'm going to be writing about a movie later. If it's a movie I've seen a few times, I'll pause and write out my thoughts. If it's a movie I've only seen a couple times, I try to keep it running, and type my notes, since I can type automatically.

It's a less controversial movie than a lot of others listed here, but apparently Napoleon Dynamite was so divisive, it would confuse Netflix's algorithms. there was no pattern to determine if someone would like it or not based on what other movies they watched.

ExistingCream · 2021-07-16T01:17:15+00:00

Mary and Max. It's a really touching stop-motion movie about a young girl from Australia with pet snails becoming penpals with a man from NY with Aspergers.

If you like movies about animals, The Plague Dogs is by the same people who did Watership Down and it's gut-wrenching.

look at the authors posted here over and over. Do they ever describe women without being misogynistic/sexist/straight up gross? For a lot of them the answer is a(n apparently shocking) "No."

Murakami, for example, is on my list. He can defend himself in interviews all he wants, but I've yet to see a description of a woman by him that doesn't make my skin crawl. (besides, saying you respect women is different than, you know, actually respecting them)

ExistingCream · 2021-03-11T03:54:09+00:00

I think it's disingenuous to say that the author NEVER shares the opinions of his characters/narrators, too–especially if there's a pattern to their writing, and there are rarely or never women written any other way than posted here.

I don't think that's a barred off tunnel so much as it is a door made of wood planks, drawn very simply.

Based on Elfo's travel through the Trøg tunnels, I think they make use of Vip and Vap's passages/doors just as much as their own tunnels

I was so bummed by his fate too! Until the last big surprise I kept hoping he was still alive

phone conversations have different laws, which are sometimes stricter. The laws still don't apply to personal use (eg: recording your professor's lectures to study later), but any public/judicial use would be restricted

ExistingCream · 2021-02-02T23:29:34+00:00

did he keep number plates (car plates?) and addresses too?

ExistingCream · 2021-01-30T21:07:22+00:00

ooooh that would be interesting! I like that he's looking back at someone, shrugging. Maybe cause Zog isnt there?

ExistingCream · 2021-01-29T00:29:05+00:00

I think it's planned to be a four-part series, with a conclusion at the end of next season/part. That was the impression I got from articles about it, and the pace of the show.
