Rest of Johto Fabrix
Here we go with the other half of the Johto patterns (which are overall better than the Kantos and therefore...Idk what to do with 'em. You couldn't pick six, and they only seem to make the shirts. Soooo, I guess giantic custom patchwork pics for potential use as digital wallpaper, binder cover inserts, etc., mayhaps? Idk. We'll see.)
Saturday, April 4, 2020
ranking 52% of Johto fabrics
*drops literally fucking dead*
This cannot be. No. They. Actually.
NO.
Wtfffffffffffffkjhgytfwghesikyottireu\szjkdlfgiturehjwnjkdoifjrn4kotiuhegjaksdjfgk
...So it's an actual full-on miracle that the original 150 fabrics exist in the first place; like, WHAT were the odds, honestly...but I truly believed that the notion of them ever going beyond those most-heavily-merchandised 150 was a ludicrous dream. But as usual, for something to stand a chance of happening, I have to be 100% certain that it will not--for now all of a sudden they email me 52/100 unveiled Johto designs, and I'm like..."These better be available on so much shit besides dress shirts? Or apparel for that matter. I could go for a custom patchwork quilt, perhaps. Or fuckin' patchwork wallpaper/borders." Or I'll just do my usual, make my own whatever and maybe print it if that makes sense. Clearly I gotta do something. Fuck. Just over half are known, and I can tell this gen is in no way as clear-cut as the first. They've lost it. And several highly-ranked ones are well above Pokemon I like more because the designs are so damn good. E.g., Ariados--I like spiders, it's cool, but it's not such a super-fave that I'd have expected its pattern to rank like this. Anyway, by the Ides of April the rest are supposed to be revealed. And that other half includes most of my Big Faves from Johto--Suicune, Umbreon, Houndoom, Phanpy, Porygon2, Espeon, Houndour. Plus Qwilfish, Forretress, Hoppip, Corsola, Magby, Elekid, Steelix, Lanturn, Chinchou......and then there's Misdreavus, Yanma, Sunkern, Skarmory, Shuckle, Dunsparce, etc., etc., etc. Lots of potential to surpass the current favorites.
But at any rate, as this was unforeseeable, my shirt is perfect for what was available at the time.
interesting.

- Xatu
- Sunflora (van Gogh style, oh they're getting too damn creative on me here)
- Smeargle (paint splatters, reminds me of Lisa Frank)

POKEMON SHIIIIRRRRRT
The Pokepatchwork is in! And the only thing I don't adore about my shirt is that you have to pop the collar to see all the Vulpixes (Vulpix? Vulpices?) I agonized for ages over where to place each fabric, knowing only that the shirt itself would be Weepinbell. There was no way to tell which other piece would allow each Vulpix to be fully visible, since that pattern is particularly spread-out and varied, and also includes the berries and stones...alas that didn't happen, and you do have to unfold it to see most of all of them. As feared, too many stupid berries & stones on the unpopped exterior; they should've flipped it. Doubtful it would've been much better elsewhere, and you'd have been taking the same gamble...probably worse...the outer collar seemed like the best bet. Disappointed in how that fabric was cut and used; obviously you should make every effort to showcase all the actual Pokemon in the pattern as much as possible. Speaking of which, the row with the Ninetales faces really shouldn't have been cut in half, but at least with that one it's basically symmetrical so you can mentally put two halves together. Delighted with the Weepinbell, Vileplume, Victreebel, and Exeggutor sections. Well, Victreebel could be centered too, but again, the leaf that's cut off is clearly visible on the other side. And you get bonus Yanma & Ledyba. :p

Best Stuff on Disney+
MOVIES:
*Almost the entire Disney Animated Canon+all of its related productions+Pixar films (see below)
Basically, I started by organizing in order to expedite my Disney catch-up...and discovered loads of loveliness in here.
Another 2 dozen shorts I'd like to see added (at least.)
12/14/19: Just watched the "One Day at Disney" stuff and:
-My favorite animal featured was the southern stingray--SUCH A GOOD GIRL, just lying there totally chill on them and then flipping over like she knows the drill. What a well-mannered sea pancake. Now how do you become a Disney attraction maintenance scuba-diver?? I've taken scuba lessons...and I once similarly wondered who maintained the big aquarium at Cabela's...:/
-I liked this...doggy/kitty thing...on the illustrator lady's shelf and wish to see it without the obstructions... (embarrassed to confess it took me 4 1/2 years to realize it's dog versions of the Inside Out characters)

Pood's Dark Materials/My Dumb Fabric/G8 Pokemon
Just replaced MLP in the DVR with His Dark Materials...*sniff* Pretty cool so far. Never read the books but have enjoyed getting filled in on the backstory and lore, particularly the awesome concept of the daemon. (Yeah yeah yeah, show me talking animals and I'm in, pretty much...)
Okay, so *hoping* that in Pullmanverse my daemon would settle as one of my two favorite types of animal, to which I feel the deepest spiritual connection...then I'd wind up with either a dog or a fish (including rays and sharks as choices...and possibly other aquatic/invertebrate creatures, but I guess, just say tropical fish.) BUT evidently a fish would require you to constantly tow around a tub of water, sooooo...I suppose aquatic or amphibious daemons would actually be rare and somewhat unlucky to have? You'd need to remain near a suitable body/container of water at all times, which could be tricky, heh. And they'd probably need surface to speak to you. So that sort of eliminates tons of options, buuuut, anything that helps narrow down is okay, right? As I was figuring the other day (at the bottom)...I could crossover and have a fishy Patronus, right?? ^^' Aaaanyway.
Obviously my ideal situation then would be a dog of a favorite breed (preferably Saluki, the eternal easy #1.) Apparently a lot of servants have dog daemons--oooh, how stereotypical, because doggos are obedient and subservient, right? Harr. They're also the most diverse species on any planet. ;p Clearly I identify with the more independent and feline-esque of canines--ones sophisticated, intelligent, elegant, graceful, dignified. Who choose to bestow their undying loyalty and infinite devotion upon only the worthiest. Whose love is ultra-special because it is earned rather than automatically given. ;p
So, yeah. I dig this concept. It's basically your classic dream talking animal companion, only it's an actual inherent part of you at the same time......
Evidently people don't always get their preferences (e.g., somebody who wants, say, a lion, and gets, say, a Poodle.) Wait, say WHAT now?!?! A magnificent, glorious, noble, brilliant, athletic, fuckin' badass Caniche would be a tremendous honor and thrill...! The fiercest and most fearsome Pood laughs at the ridiculous notion of disappointment. That's a hot one.
Very very surprised to see that daemons are usually of the opposite sex from their people. Same-sex ones can indicate that the person is possessed of "second sight," or is homosexual? xD Well, the former could certainly apply if that were my case. Now, show me all the folks with elephants, giraffes, hippos, rhinos...how convenient that must be. x-3 How do they stick near enough to you? What about those with heavy, slow daemons they can't carry or drag if they have to run from danger? Wouldn't such people be relatively easy to kill (especially since killing a daemon kills the person?) #pondering
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Based on my first viewings of the Gen-VIII Sword/Shield Pokemon...I attempted ranking/listing my favorite...almost half. Let's try 40.

Same-sex ones can indicate that the person is possessed of "second sight," or is homosexual? xD Well, the former could certainly apply if that were my case. Now, show me all the folks with elephants, giraffes, hippos, rhinos...how convenient that must be. x-3 How do they stick near enough to you? What about those with heavy, slow daemons they can't carry or drag if they have to run from danger? Wouldn't such people be relatively easy to kill (especially since killing a daemon kills the person?) #pondering

*The "hat" trio immediately brought to mind some of my favorite Fripples for some reason (the circular spotted one with two cones and a party hat, the teardrop one with diagonal stripes and sombrero. xD Plus the adorable sleeping-cap one.)

11.7.20~Just introduced: Glastrier, Spectrier, & Calyrex. Legendary shadow (Luna!) & ice horses plus their rider...I mean, cool...I'm saying "'Glahs-tree-ay' et 'Speck-tree-ay,'" mmmkay. And once again I'm reminded of Sibereon, the Ice-type Eeveelution I drew before Glaceon came along. It was basically a Regice dog. c-x Probably the best design I came up with, but not the only faceted canine, hee...
11.19 intros: Regieleki (noice color), Galarian Legendary Birds (scary Articuno reminding me of the Rock-A-Doodle owls like Malamar...chicken Zapdos...badass dark-fire Moltres...)

^ I've asked them so many gdmf times to allow you to just have one link to the entire drive, but so far the common-sense request has fallen on deaf & dumb ears...also, I found that Imageshack & especially Microsoft OneDrive are virtually the same identical thing. [additional note to self: acct info for those in georgette notebook. And obviously I discovered that Imageshack is nothing like 1D, lul. ~ 1d videos]

**9.21.20**
THE REVOLTING PB SAGA!: Photobucket is a scamming sack of shit. 16 years, 22k+ files...and all of a sudden anything over 250 per account requires a paid plan. Never mind that other sites provide unlimited free storage (or a huge limit), so nobody in their right mind will give them a cent. I obviously left somewhere between 100-something & 249 files on each of the 8 accounts, but now I'm realizing that I can't even view the files full-size as you naturally used to. They display largely within the albums, but when you double-click to see them individually, it only shows tiny thumbnails. Wtff. Then, I thought I'd just grab the links to all 8 accounts--simple, right? Of course the fuck not. Half the links I was able to figure out how to kinda get didn't even fucking work. Goddammit you scum-sucking cunts, way to be the worst 2020 event. That's quite the motherfucking achievement, but you nailed it. Glad I lj-saved the support-request-slash-rant I submitted, because there's just way too much to say about how fucking hard you're sucking the big one right now. ...okay, so apparently you have to click the thumbnail to see the image full-size in a new tab, for some reason? Why the middle step? Why is the "image detail" icon a pencil, which universally means "EDIT?!?!?!?!?" You fucktards. You shitfaced cockmasters, you donkey-raping shiteaters. Well, whatever. The primary thing is the link non-functionality. You can't link to any individual file, and only to certain albums for an unfathomable reason. Used to be able to just link to your main bucket rather than picking an album! THERE IS NO EXPLANATION FOR THIS HORSEFUCKERY. Need to delete most of the producer_love account but the site is now not loading files at all...don't really wanna just delete every folder without seeing which one(s) I might be able to leave. Truly this is the worst website ever, and holy shit is that competition stiff. Just the way it promised for over fifteen years to hold your priceless memories and significant shit but then all of a sudden decides to pull this evil attempted money-grubbing shit.
~*~*~*~*
sometimes these 8 work...sometimes you have to take an album's link instead and hope that might work...horseshit.

...why can't you single-space anymore within the editor, Blogger...whywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhy... no.8 (nm all these, deleted PBs)

Aiight, so forget Imageshack obviously. Now I was GOing to delete the two albums that happen to be on 1Drive, BUT in comparing the file numbers...MGM on GP=3693 vs. 3896 on 1D? PL on GP=1716 vs. 1757 on 1D? There's no earthly explanation. None. The disparities can't be accounted for. There's no way GP could've missed anything...which it better not have done on any of the other accounts either. At any rate it's a huge fucking mess like this whole clusterfuck, I'm still utterly murderous, and I wish my external drives could be online. Like a PB equivalent with a fair limit. Whatever. I'm hoping to be able to screen-record scrolling through the entire thing--time trial took almost 25 minutes. 8/ The thumbnails'll have to be left at the default size, but it'd probably be the most useful overview possible...

UPDATE: knew imageshack was too good to be true. fucking hell. looks like gonna have to try to transfer everything that's not on GP to GP.
