"i could never do the thing" is an invitation for me to take you by the little hand and teach you on the spot.

take care you don't confuse "i don't know how to do that" with "i can't be arsed to do that" because there is a difference!

The Unicorn in Captivity (from the Unicorn Tapestries), 1495–1505. Unknown Netherlandish. Wool warp with wool, silk, silver, and gilt wefts.

DIY Solarpunk Tech

Thanks to the wonderful people who contribute to free open-sourced software and projects, robotics and other tech are easier to do than ever. They tell you what parts to buy, how to build it, and even provide the coding.

Creating these not only helps you learn skills to repair your own tech, but can also save you money and protect your data.

Though I'd like to, I have not made any of these myself (I have dyscalculia, so I am a bit nervous to try), but I wanted to share them in case even just one of them helps someone.

🌎 Environmental Protection:

🌱 Gardening:

It can be hard to balance both gardening and the tasks of daily life, but tech can lend a hand.

🤖 Robot Companions:

Not only are these companions made for helping with loneliness, they can also be helpful for task reminders and more.

Inspired by @lacnunga 's adorable dragon embroidery

I made a little guy

Finished some more toy customization! Here’s the little house I repainted for @kwillow​‘s Ambroys. I love the Rococo-esque sculpting on the Towns series houses–perfect for a 1700s noble prettyboy horse–but they definitely need a bit of paint to bring out that detail. :) For reference, I’ve included what the house looked like prior to painting under the cut:

This is the only tiktok you’ll ever need, I’ve made about 13 of these and I’m not stopping anytime soon

I’m reblogging again because I did it myself and added pictures for those who have trouble learning from the video.

First take a standard rectangular piece of paper (I used one from a small notebook which I ripped out then cut the holes off)

Then fold in half touching the shorter side to the opposite shorter side.

Fold again making the new shorter side touch the other new shorter side

I did this one more time, but this time I unfolded it right after to get back to where it was only folded twice. It should have left a crease in the paper.

Using this crease, fold the corners up alongside it to look like this

This are also going to be unfolded, but this time you’re going to push in alongside the triangular folds you just made and undid.

Doing this once will result in this

Hold tight because tumblr won’t let me add more pictures. I’ll reblog will the rest of the instructions

Continuing on,

Do the other side of you haven’t already to get this

You’ll open these newly created flap to change which parts are touching

Leaving you with this

Then you start pulling the top “tabs” down

Do both sides to get the final folded form

Decorate as desired.

Hope this helps!

Ratio for the rectangle size is 2:3

So 6 cm by 9cm

I uh, lost an evening:

Thanatos knows that I hecking love cute origami, and moths, so really, what was I supposed to do, scroll past and not take the opportunity to make butterfly and moth page markers???

I’m…not crafty

I got lost at the “push in” part and gave up, and apparently I’m having a rough day because now I’m crying ‘cause I can’t origami fuck no skillz

Got help:

I can’t believe it has to be said again, people, but DO NOT BUY DESIGNER TRIBBLES!!!! Despite what you may have heard, there is NOT an overarching organisation regulating breeding practice! These tribbles may be cute, but they come from INCREDIBLY unsafe/unsanitary breeding farms, and even if they don’t, they still are prone to massive health problems! A healthy tribble reproduces exponentially with only increased nutrition intake, but “designer” tribbles like these often are INFERTILE. So much of what we know about tribbles links overall health and happiness to their unusual reproductive habits! Don’t buy designer tribbles! If you must own a fuzzball of your own, do your research and obtain one from a tribble rescue organisation instead
