If You're Feeling Anxious Or Depressed About The Climate And Want To Do Something To Help Right Now,

reblog to give warm bread to your mutuals

new tutorial, this time for "fake" medals you can use to decorate your jacket or any stuff really.

give yourself a weird award you yourself came up with, coorperations do it all the time!

stuff you will need:

-scissors

-variation of pliers

-a stencil, the shape you want the fabric part of ur medal to be, make it a bit bigger so youll have room to sew

-piece of fabric two times the size of your stencil

-sewing needle

-sewing thread, i use dental floss

-safety pin

-paperclip, or just iron wire, around 1 mm Ø

-bottlecap

start with cutting out the two pieces of fabric for your medal using a stencil

pin em to eachother, with the sides you want to be on the outside, facing inwards.

sew along the side but keep the top open, so you can flip it inside out.

now you can flip in inside out, and fold the top around the safety pin, and sew it down

make sure the side of the pin that doesnt open is the one being sewn down. the opening part should be on top.

bend the paperclip into something resembling the shapes in the pic below using the pliers, doesnt need to look good, mine sure dont

bend the edges of the bottlecap to the inside, and pin the hook part of the right iron wire thing down under the edge

connect the iron wire hoop you made (left in picture) to the piece of iron wire on the bottlecap. fold the point of the fabric part of the metal around the hoop and sew it down.

should look something like this.

now you can add decorations, you can paint the cap aswell as the fabric part, using patterned fabrics can also make ur medals look nicer.

ive seen people advise using modgepodge to seal the painted cap, instead of nailpolish, i dont have modpodge where i live but use that if youre able to get ur hands on it.

i hope this was clear, let me know if you want tutorials on any other stuff. i like doing them a lot.

I for one have always advocated for the 13 month calender

Every month is exactly 4 weeks long, its just perfect

(This also means the extra non-month day is also a non-week day)

I will vote for your party if it exists in my country. If not, i would love to create a local branch

i think the year should be split into 13 28-day months with one bonus non-month day at the very end where nobody is allowed to work, including the police, which would effectively make all crime legal.

on leap years this would last two days instead.

the 13th month would be placed between august and september and be called "sextember" because that would be really funny.

additionally, i would shift the start of the calendar year up three months, so that the month numbers of sextember, september, october, november, and december once again align with their names. the fact that this would make april the start of the year is purely a coincidence.

all computers not patched for this new calendar system by the time of its implementation would be destroyed indiscriminately, which would cause a lot of problems that my party will be committed to not solving.

VOTE FOR THE APRIL CALENDAR PARTY THIS ELECTION

I can't stop thinking about how much mole skeletons remind me of whale skeletons.

We're all familiar with Space Whales but nobody ever talks about Space Moles. Or Desert Whales. Or Giant Ocean Moles. And that's terrible.

PENGUINS. all of them!

(not precisely to scale, but close)

At this point i am convinced that you need black magic to create woodblock prints like THIS

woodblock print 

I read this info about the eggs in a childrens book a long long time ago.

And then i forgot about it

And starting to read this post, the memory came back up, and i realised that it can not be a real thing, to paint your face on an egg to be approved as a clown: it must be a funny story to tell to children

But i just learned it is real

Hey Gaudy did you know that clowns can paint their likeness on an egg and have it sent to the Clown Gallery, therefore patenting their signature look to keep other clowns from copying them?

i HAVE actually heard of the Clown Egg Register. 

for those not in the know, there’s a museum of clowning that helps enforce the unofficial rule that no two clowns can have the same face markings. thus started the practice of painting the markings onto eggs, as a means of record keeping. 

anyway, yes, clowns use eggs to copyright their makeup
