Omg And This! What's With All The Cute Crochet Patterns Today?!

Because of this circulating the girl scouts in my area have suffered greatly during cookie booths this season. Generally people just made of handed comments or refused to purchase cookies. However, the most radical and heart breaking act was when a truck drove by and covered a special needs troop with ketchup while shouting 'fag lovers'. ...

someone on facebook posted this intending it to be negative but instead it’s INCREDIBLE. go girl scouts

God, this happens to me all the time. Even when I'm reading a really awesome book. :<

this needs to be a thing.

Buying books instead

If you don’t have means to a therapist or mental health professional

Check out therapistaid.com. There’s worksheets there that you can download for free.

Of course it would be a lot more beneficial if you have a therapist to help you through it but not everyone has access to one.

It’s a free site where you can have free downloads of worksheets on many things.

If there’s something there that you think would be helpful, print it out and complete the worksheet on your own.

It’s hard to be accountable for yourself but at least there’s a way for you to have some insight and work on yourself.

Hey guys! Here’s a post that I hope some will find helpful, things I have picked up along the way that I wish I had known from the start!  These are not set in stone, and only just suggestions, I’m no expert okay guys THINGS I WISH I HAD KNOWN ABOUT PHOTOSHOP: 1.  FLOW.  Flow was put in place primarily for the airbrush folks.  Now its relevance has changed slightly.  With textured brushes, try reducing the flow to “expose” texture. 2.  Ctrl+U : HUE/SATURATION/LIGHTNESS.  For people who are indecisive about color, use this to slide around the color quickly instead of repainting or replacing the color. 3.  CLIPPING/ LAYER MASKS.  Seriously, take five minutes to do this.  A good online resource is ctrlpaint.  This will be instrumental in creating hard edges, something beginner digital artists really struggle with.  Also non-destructive, you will save SO much time.  4.  With that said, ctrl+alt+g makes the current layer you are on a clipping mask.  You can layer mask a group.  5.  MULTIPLY and the surrounding layer types in its little section is like a dark glaze.  Good for shadows. 6.  OVERLAY and the surrounding layer types in its little section is like a lightening glaze.  Good for lighting. LIGHTEN and the dudes around him are also good for lighting, esp. screen.  7.  MAKE YOUR GOSH DARN BACKGROUND IN THE INTERFACE LIGHTER.  Your contrast will thank you.  Right click on the background of the interface and choose the one you like the best.  I know dark grey looks sexy, I know.  8.  TRANSFORM TOOLS ARE THE BEST (but paint over them).  If you have a tile, pattern, whatever- Image>transform> choose your weapon.  Have a tiled floor? Don’t you dare paint all those tiles. Scales?  Paint them flat in a square, then use the warp tool to push them around the form.  Then make your painterly adjustments. 9.  PAINTING SHORTCUTS:  Numbers affect the opacity. Shift+ Number affects the flow. Holding down alt gives you the eyedropper. Brackets [] change size of brush, these dudes <> cycle between your brushes. 10.  HISTOGRAM. If you have a fairly even histogram, this means your distribution of lights mids and darks is even.  If it is skewed, and you don’t mean it to be, adjust accordingly.  Just be casual about it and love your art I love you all drawmaevedraw.tumblr.com 

what should i grow in my greenhouse this winter?

i want to grow teeny weeny things in teeny weeny pots! and also a lemon tree.

I'm a lazy ass bitch and I was wondering if you have any recommendations for easy plants for a garden?

YOU. YOU GET ME.

All of my gardening is done with being a lazy bitch in mind. If it needs constant tending, babying, coddling, whatever, anything more than me weeding it now and then (and even then, it’s better if I can just. Not.) then fuck that whole noise.

I don’t use annuals I can’t plant via winter sowing in milk jugs, or via just straight up throwing seeds at the dirt and walking away. Because why the hell would I spend all that time and money every year planting the whole damn thing again?

Perennials come back every year and only get bigger, instead of dying off every winter. Iris are wonderfully hardy and easy-care, meaning can be largely ignored. Will need to be lifted, divided, and replanted ever…I dunno…five or six years, but then so will most perennials.

Echinacia. That’s a native tallgrass prairie plant. It could survive anything up to and possibly including nuclear war. Bees and butterflies love it, and it’s beautiful.

Hollyhock. Beautiful, and can be planted by throwing seeds at the dirt once. Will reseed itself until the end of days.

Peonies. Lovely and will outlive you. Basically indestructible.

Low growing varieties of yarrow make great groundcovers. The trick to not having to weed often is to cover ALL of the dirt, so that your plants shade out weeds.

Roses. Old fashioned own root varieties. Will outlive you and possibly your grandchildren.

Violets. Native, a lovely groundcover, edible, and beautiful.

Lilies. Smell fantastic, gorgeous, and indestructible.

Penstemon. Another tallgrass prairie plant. Gorgeous, and nearly impossible to kill.

I tried a 2-D printer once, and the paper jammed.

So now I just painstakingly re-create my paper copies by hand, like a medieval monk.
