Hey gang! You can call me Koschei.

Host of the Skeletal System, current frequent fronters are John Constantine, Jamie McCrimmon, the Doctor, and Jim Hawkins.

Hi @delgado-master love you <3

I’m a broke disabled transmasc and I’m currently absolutely fucking terrified about rent, if you want to help out with that I’m at leapingintodisaster on paypal and venmo.

Ao3 is here, I get sad and give all the sad thoughts to fictional characters: https://archiveofourown.org/users/skeletonnoises

Radically inclusive, pro-endo, and transandrophobia is real. I also do not give a shit about what other people ship and antis fucking scare me.

I’m back on my Doctor Who bullshit it’s my comfort show it’s my favorite thing and I will forever be having emotions over Charley Pollard. I’m also a massive anthropology nerd and I love to crochet and embroider.

Note: I do not publish random fundraising asks. That’s a hard boundary for me - I never have and I never will. I only reblog fundraisers if I personally know the people involved.

#dead men do tell tales #hi :3

The Sense of Distance: Japan versus the American Midwest

JoJo’s seventh story arc, Steel Ball Run, involves a race across America, but I knew that undertaking that journey by myself in one single trip would have been impossible. Instead, I split up the research into three sections: from the West Coast to the deserts, from the Great Plains to the Mississippi River and Chicago, and to the finish line in New York. Each region possesses its own culture and is home to different types of people.

Without going there for yourself, it’s impossible to comprehend the feeling of scale of the midwestern United States, where the scenery stretches on forever and unchanging. The feeling of distance there is nothing like Japan. Say, for example, an enemy is approaching from afar – at such a distance that escape would be trivial in Japan. In the Midwest, the open landscape remains identical from one hour to the next, and I was struck by the real sense that I could never make an escape from such an adversary; there was simply nowhere to hide. I was able to put that experience to good use when it came time to draw the manga.

Travel there is mostly done by car. When you drive across those vast plains, the scenery is mostly devoid of any ups and downs, and is dotted only by the occasional town with nothing to claim but chain stores, seemingly little to provide amusement aside from watching movies, and you hardly ever see anyone else about. Rather than inspire thoughts of enjoying nature, it felt empty and lifeless and made me wonder if there was any fun to living there at all. A kind of atmosphere hung over these places that felt rich for suspense.

My wife's favorite sleep noise app is the kind that lets you mix different noises, one of which is a snoring shih tzu, and she loves to create soundscapes that imply the dog is in imminent danger

It'll be like

*music box playing*

*dog snoring*

*the sound of a crackling fire slowly fades in, getting louder and louder as the dog continues to snore*

The other night I was taking a bath while her bluetooth speaker sat innocently nearby, when she decided to aid my relaxation by providing her favorite soundscape, Dog Engulfed In Housefire

Okay since this is getting like a thousand notes an hour let me clear up some common misconceptions:

1) she is doing this on purpose, as she turns up the volume on the fire she yells things like "oh no he's still sleeping get him out of there!"

2) she is not falling asleep to this. Her preference for actual sleeping is just rain noises. She does this exclusively to torment me/make me laugh/amuse herself before bed
