Blanket for Niko: a love story

she loves crochet, she loves to be swaddled like a baby, she loves to claim everything i make for herself so now i made something just for her that's hers and no one else's. And it's not even her birthday yet...

the pattern is the Lotus Blanket from here with modifications made to be worked in a gradient and to make it lotus shaped instead of square. it's made from a 1000m gradient cake on a 3mm hook. I worked on it over 26 days, no estimate for the hours lol

the cat is Nikodemus she's almost 4 years old and the most precious little baby girl

The trope where a character overhears something out of context and assumes the worst is usually annoying and bad but I really think it works well in Shrek

We, the audience, know that Fiona is talking about herself but, regardless, she’s calling herself these terrible things because she is an ogre. If Fiona is these things because she is is an ogre what does that make Shrek?

If Fiona says no one could love her because she is an ogre, she is saying that Shrek is also unloveable whether she wants to or not.

Imo the scene is a really good portrayal of how when you talk poorly of yourself or others for having a trait, you’re also talking about every other person who shares that trait; even if you love them or think what you’re saying doesn’t apply to them.

Not going to lie, I saw the word “Shrek” and never expected this to be a deep post.

On the being deep about Shrek website?

i was looking at the undertale soundtrack on steam because it’s available to purchase, and im laughing so hard about the system requirements info..

Today's sketch is a study of a classical chimera, but the lion part is a pigeon, and also the goat part is a pigeon, and would you believe it the snake tail is also a pigeon

I do love the phrase executive dysfunction bc the image it conjures is of a bunch of people wearing business suits around a long oval conference table  arguing with each other to the point where they’re getting into physical fights, but in the background there’s just a big empty whiteboard with a To Do list with one item on it and that item is “take shower”

two of them got into a heated argument about the order of shower and food and they’ve all left for an extended lunch break using the company card
