Wholesomesmith - The Create With My Hands

‼️

How to use Tumblr:

Like Twitter without the character limits, and no one went "um actually"

Like reddit, just there's more like the cafeteria and less of a classroom

Like Facebook, if you didn't care.

Express yourself! Shitpost! Be an idiot! Just remember that nothing matters, and we're all here for the same reasons... and we forgot all of them

An important PSA to remember!

I used to put caution/warning marks in my earmuffs when I used to work loud saws as a job.

I thought they were hilarious because "haha, loud saw, and I can't hear anything," but I feel like it should be normal to put those marks on earmuffs even if it's not loud.

Imagine your autistic and wearing muffs with warning signs on the sides; people will probably approach you with caution.

Something to try

It dawned on my why in "historical/medevial" movies, nothing is what it should be, be it the armor of that time, the outfits of that decade (yes, they changed that quickly), the architecture isn't of the time period, or even the accent is incorrect

Either:

A) The people behind it don't care that much

B) The items would be too expensive to produce. Just look at Henry VIII's armor; that stuff is stupid, complicated, and fancy... wait, LOTR has crews slave away at chainmail, which is very time-consuming and can get very complicated

C) You'll never tell who's who on the battlefield... oh wait, banners exist

D) History is too boring or takes forever to hit all the main points over a century... even though there are ways to show the passing of time and, just, game of thrones

E) speaking on an OP or earlier accent can get unintelligible if you're not accustomed to it... but subtitles exist

And finally. 99.99% of the time, axes and swords are worn on the hip, not the back. The only exception is the beast being oo long to wear on the side.

Spears are cheap and are stupid easy to use, especially with a sheild.

Combat is always fast and can lead to a messy ground fight. Yes, getting bonked really hard is an option. Bows were used by strong people and were fired quickly and/or with high precision (trick shots were used to pass the time, not hitting archery targets)

People snuffing it was a normal occurrence, be it from illness, infection, accidents, or fighting.

"But it's a movie," yeah, and my countless hyoerfixations say otherwise

1d8 bludgeon + str. Bludgeoning

If hit, the target is stunned for a round

Y’ever read something and have understanding that has eluded you interminably suddenly stop, curl up, and snuggle neatly into a fold in your brain because a new way way opened to it?

I doubt AI can compare to the years of madness that a writer can go through for the sake of a series.

My universe has permanently altered the way I spend my free time. I've done drawings of just about every character and have plans drawn for every unique item with such detail that I can pick it up years later and build it with much thought.

AI can not imitate that level of devotion to something that's was thought up almost a decade ago.

Oh, I've written books on several topics... they're more like encyclopedias in a tutorial format that read like a super long YouTube video.

I'm a prime example of what happens when autism is allowed to go off and pointed in one direction
