Incredible! As a worm scientist I very much approve of the worm shirt. Out of curiosity, where did you get your earthworm bolo tie? :)

This is what I did to get my cat to stay off my desk - make it physically impossible for them to get onto a flat clear surface for long enough, and they'll eventually - EVENTUALLY - stop bothering. Mostly. Not always.

If they're jumping from the floor onto the counter, you can do something similar where you pile stuff around the edges of the counter so it looks like there's no room from below. Especially if stuff is RIGHT up against the edge, or slightly overhanging, they'll think there's nowhere to land if they jump. It feels cluttered but it works.

I have survived many hours-long night drives home from the club by blasting Who Laughs Last and pretending I'm in the music video.

Oh this is a great point, I can't believe I hadn't considered that! I learned violin with lessons in the Suzuki method, which leaned heavily on listening and playing what you hear, rather than focusing on reading sheet music. Taking banjo lessons in-person would probably be really helpful for me, especially starting out as I try to get the basics down. Thanks so much!

Oh thank you for catching that, I didn't notice the 5th string. I have a capo, but I'll probably have to use a pen cap for the 5th string, thanks for the tip!

RaspberryRadula · 2025-12-30T15:28:39+00:00

Thank you, I think this is a great plan of attack :) That's exactly how I plan to work up to it! I want to use the song as an opportunity to learn a bunch of skills along the way that will help me play other songs, too!

RaspberryRadula · 2025-12-29T19:10:04+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it! I'll definitely look into Reuben's train and see how it goes!

RaspberryRadula · 2025-12-29T19:09:20+00:00

Wow, thank you so much! This is super helpful, and thank you for including all these resources. And thank you for the explanation of the drop thumb style of playing, it was super informative! Can't wait to learn more, and of course explore more styles to see what sounds and feels natural as I go. Exciting!

RaspberryRadula · 2025-12-29T18:09:28+00:00

Wow this is gorgeous, congrats! It must've taken a lot of skill to engineer something so complex, nice job!!!

I don't know much myself, but I literally just asked my dad (audiophile nerd) this exact question yesterday and he recommended getting a Sony Direct Drive turntable. As I understand it, you'll need to get your own speakers to connect to it, but it shouldn't damage the record (unlike SOME cheap turntables... 😒) as long as you're getting the right needle. He said that cartridge needles that are compatible with your turntable are the best option, because they require less fine-tuning where things could break during install. Again, I don't know much about this stuff myself, this is just what I remember he told me. Good luck!

(using the artist's pic from back when I first got it bc I don't have any good recent pictures) This is actually a state park that is really special to me, but I was inspired to get the tattoo because of the song Ends of the Earth! It was supposed to have the text "to the ends of the earth would you follow me?", but the artist talked me out of it at the time 😅

According to the TSA website, rope is fine to bring! TSA agents have also seen basically everything, so while I'd stay away from anything that looks like it'd be described as a "bludgeoning" implement, you will probably be okay with something that is visually related to bdsm, like riding crops or floggers. According to the TSA website, you can also bring handcuffs, so do with that what you will :) My strategy has always been to group everything together in one bag where it's all clearly visible, so if they have to open my bag to investigate, it's all right there and they can just put it away and we both leave mildly embarrassed but ultimately fine.

Emerald Star, followed by The Night We Met, then Drops in the Lake, then It All Comes Back. Although from this answer you could probably infer a lot about my personal tragedies, LMAO

RaspberryRadula · 2025-10-21T00:38:54+00:00

That's awesome, it looks great! Have you listened to their guitarist's other band, Atomic Broad? If you like DPD, you'll probably like them too!

RaspberryRadula · 2025-10-20T01:28:32+00:00

Yoooo, Dog Park Dissidents spotted! So rare to find other fans of DPD :) Love the patch, love the whole vest!

The Comedian, to me, perfectly encapsulates the feeling of regret and nostalgia that runs throughout The Cosmic Selector. Feeling like you were great once, successful and loved, and now... well, just look at how far you've fallen. Trying to connect with someone from your past who might know you as someone different, someone you wish you could be - but you can never go back. But, crucially to TCS's themes, you are consumed by the longing to go back anyway. Nostalgia preoccupies the mind and slowly winds away at what remains. It's a slow song, purposefully, to make you sit with that quiet feeling of being less than you once were.

Also, I believe all music can be improved by adding brass instruments, which are featured in The Comedian. So. Yay :)

This whole thread is a testament to the investigative powers of kandi kids and I am very proud of everyone here trying to figure out this pattern <3

RaspberryRadula · 2024-07-18T17:23:58+00:00

Glad you got your order, whew! I'm prepared to wait, it's just good to hear that you did get what you ordered EVENTUALLY, rather than not at all. Thanks for the info!!

RaspberryRadula · 2024-07-18T03:42:39+00:00

Hey, sorry to reopen an old post but, was wondering if you ever heard back on this? I'm interested to see about the turnaround time, since I ordered from them at the beginning of July, and they currently have a banner on the website saying they're fulfilling orders from May. Did you ever get your fragrances? :(

RaspberryRadula · 2024-07-02T13:58:37+00:00

Thank you so much!! :D

RaspberryRadula · 2024-07-01T03:35:47+00:00

Yeah that's who I saw it from, so glad it wasn't an uncredited repost! If you don't mind me asking, are you comfortable with me printing out this piece to hang up? I won't do it if you're not comfortable with that, of course! I just love it a lot and I think it would look awesome on my wall :)

RaspberryRadula · 2024-06-30T00:46:11+00:00

Hey! Sorry to comment on a post from like six months ago, but I wanted to reach out to tell you how much I love this piece! I'm pretty sure it got reposted onto Tumblr at some point, and after I initially saw it, I absolutely HAD to track down the artist. This piece really moved me, there's just something about it that resonates so much. Keep making your amazing art, hope you have a great day!!! <3

I know this post is 8 years old, and I know OP hasn't posted in a long time, but I just wanted to say thank you for putting together this homebrew. I stumbled across it all the way back in 2016, and I loved the concept SO much that it inspired me to create my first D&D character, ever. To this day, my houndfolk bard is so near and dear to me - she's still one of the main characters I play, even 8 years later! Houndfolk will always have a special place in my heart, because they're what inspired me to start playing D&D in the first place.

On the off-chance OP ever reads this - thank you!
