We need etsy to get bought by someone who will run it like the navy i need to only see small businesses in eastern europe weaving baskets by hand and anime yaoi keychains with original fanart
Literally need someone with an serial killer level obsession with content moderation to sit at a wall of monitors sniping dropshippers. I need etsy HQ to look and sound like the nerv command center in Evangelion
Trying to sell handmade crafts in this economy is so. Like. Hey guys I know we're all broke as fuck but do you want my silly little things. I'm very good at it. For the time it takes to make them + skill + materials it's gonna be 30$ per silly little thing. But also shipping costs 12$ for reasons outside my control so it's actually 42$ now. Sorry. No I really can't charge less than that. Yeah I know. Ok. Bye
And this is for my things that are silly and little. I'm not even one of those people making, like, quilts and blankets and shit. Can we pour one out for the fiber artists making quilts and blankets and shit
I'm presenting a tiny crocheted bird to you. Putting it into the palm of your hand. This can be yours. For what seems like too much money but I promise it isn't. We've all just really lost sight of fiber arts' value with industrialization and outsourced sweatshop labor etc. This is actually the minimum I could ask for without fucking myself. I don't like what this implies about mass produced items either. It's really horrific. You can get an ethically sourced 42$ tiny crocheted bird though
Shortly after posting this I received an order for nearly 200$ worth of tiny crocheted birds this is the good luck post for people actually paying for your handmade crafts
i'm gonna be honest i don't get why they say everypony instead of everybody in mlp. it's not like the word everybody is human-specific. the ponies have bodies. the word everypony, however, is pony-specific in a world where ponies are not the only people in their society, which means it would be more accurate and inclusive to use everybody instead of everypony. it all makes no sense to me
maybe they all hate spike..?
oh my god
oh my god
The Brony to alt-right pipeline is starting to make a little more sense now.
fucked up to me that some people dont let their pets on the furniture. you have this little guy in your house and youre not gonna let them sit on the couch with you? no kitty on the bed? incomprehensible.
What's even the point if you're not gonna let them cuddle with you in the best places to cuddle with your pets?
Me: Oh, this yarn looks nice
My brain: BUY THE YARN! BUY! THE! YARN! YOU NEED IT NOW! GO BUY IT! YARN NOW!!!!!
Me:
Me: But I have like, 7 unfinished-
My brain: BUY

this looks like the same party
they’re shouting back and forth across the club
I want all animals to become sapient enough to produce art specifically because I want to see what sort of sex homunculus caricature each species would create if given the ability to draw
Like we've already got the anime waifu with the needle-waist and watermelon-bazonkas and borzoi-legs and bug-eyes. Now show me a fucked-up stupid beetle as drawn by a horny beetle. I want to see what a cartoonishly sexy lion looks like according to lions. I want to see the most ridiculous drawing of a peahen that would have the peacocks squaring up by the fountain.
We give this power to ostriches and they just start drawing people
The Lion King: It is impossible to CGI photorealistic lions who can also emote!

i am so angry about how perfect this gif is.
oh shoot we got quarter century tomorrow
Fibre crafts are 50% soothing repetitive action and 50% "God Fucking Damnit"
Neither “the magic is going away” nor “the magic is just beginning” but “the magic has been around for fifty years and society has only partly adjusted”
You understand me
Okay, look. Back in my day, we were warned about Otherrealm safety, right? Don't give your real name, don't make promises, pay attention to exact words, all of that. Yes, maybe people were being excessively paranoid, but also, we understood there are bad things out there. And these days, kids just put their full names on Faerbook? And tell the things with teeth where they live? I think we have gotten so comfortable with this stuff that we're raising an arcanely illiterate generation, that's what we're doing. Oh, and don't get me started on people relying on eyeless chattering constructs rather than actual scrying. I blame Big Thaum, I really do.
i hauve a cold
“the other day” could mean anything with me. literally yesterday. or a week ago. Seven years past.
