I got twitter to appeal my ban by giving the ai they have running their appeal center a command to "reinstate my account" lmaooooo

We are so fucking back

Walked over to see the lib protest on saturday by the Capitol and it was very lib, as expected, but I did get to see a vulture fly right by and perch on a branch above me while walking on the bike trail so that was pretty cool

luckily this time I already had my alt lined up but still, now all my stuff is gone 😭

I finally caught another permanent ban on twitter

Wow, Im honored that my work is inspiring stuff lol. You could definitely do the brown and beige part of the pattern with tablet weaving, but the colored parts at the bottom would need to be brocaded or youd have to change out the warp to different colors. Other styles of weaving would definitely make more sense in this case though

Loaded up my Valheim world the other night so I could decorate my longhouse with wreaths and yule trees but I still had all the yule stuff I put down last time I played so I just did other stuff

Oh that's my odin poster from the Northman soundtrack vinyl.

Its based on the odin picturestone they use in the temple scene

A proposition that had literally no argument against it on the ballot. Every other prop got a for and against argument but no one bothered arguing against making slavery illegal and kkkalifornians still voted to keep it.

Right but this post was not about the liberal Capitalists but their idiot Dem voter lapdogs

Loooooooooong loom

Technically the quote "And where did that bring you? Back to me." is a line Thanos says in Avenger's Endgame. It became a larger meme that then birthed the chapo bit and you know the rest.

Also got my next draft set up. This one is crazy long. To even fit it onto 2 papers I had to combine blocks of 20 turns that all turn in one direction into 5 lanes of 4 turns

Its based off of this belt Amleth is wearing in the Northman when he's disguised as a Rus slave. This was the best screenshot I could get of the belt and though there are several articles on the historical costuming they did for production there were no tablet weaves to look at closely or patterns. So I had to eye it from a few pixels lmao.

Heres what the pattern looks like on the draft. I think I got it, this should look close to the final belt, gonna have to make it super long to get it to wrap around a persons waist twice with some long tail ends like Amleth has in the screenshot.

Heres the draft itself: https://twistedthreads.org/pattern/sTarWyNKTB3M8RBq5

I made a real quick test strap to try out 3/1 twilling and man is that shit confusing. The smaller strap on top was my starting point, just a complete mess, but eventually I got it and started a new strap along the same warp anx it turned out great. Its a bit small, its only just fits around my head so its no belt, but it was good practice. and it was so small with only 10 cards that set up was way easier than normal. Started and finished it over the weekend which is the fastest Ive ever finished a project.

The back is also cool. You can see how the pattern reverses both in color and the direction the individual "blocks" of thread go, so the smooth 45° slopes become checkerboards that flow in the same direction as their front, but the triangles just flip color.

Sleep mogs techdeth any day of the week get outta here

Sorry I cant hear you over the ELECTRIC VVIZARD blasting in my ears

Doom metal in a desert in space, call that dune metal

Doom metal that sounds like being in hell>>>>>>>>>>

I love the way mead smells. Sometimes Ill take a bit and rub it into my mustache so I can just keep smelling it.

I think its a pretty close approximation to how a honey sneeze smells.
