Brought to you by these cursed lafufus I saw at a newsstand near Bryant Park today. (Photo not mine, but the same ones.)

This thread is amazing and made me look up the flag of my childhood home, Round Rock, which is yet another “slap a lone star on it” one. Seeing it awoke a lost memory in me, my elementary school def used this.
Image of the Round Rock flag, which has a five-pointed star made of the negative space within red and blue brushstrokes and the words Round Rock Texas next to it.

What a cute base! I’d love to toss two of my D&D characters into the ring.

Not taking any chances, also I forgot I had this saved on my desktop.

Take the fictional characters quiz and post the first four you know: openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac...

This is... a group of characters that I can't say I'm exactly MAD about. (Except I would NEVER marry a confederate soldier, wtf Alice.)

Castle in the Sky is quietly probably my favorite Ghibli movie, so this was only a matter of time. (I never doubted I’d get the crystal, though, although I might get the robot garden guardian one day as well.)

Artist is pinarleclair on instagram! (And Sophie’s hat is by diekan_artist on insta.)
Tattoo of the crystal pendant necklace from Castle in the Sky on a white person’s arm. It has a blue halo and sparkles. Two tattoos on a white person’s arm. The top tattoo is of Sophie’s hat from Howl’s Moving Castle. The tattoo lower on the inner arm is a freshly done one of the crystal necklace from Castle in the Sky, with a protective film over it.

Show me one picture from Star Trek that perfectly embodies your aura.

I had a realization while looking at a Grade Pending sign in a restaurant window today.
Image of a Grade Pending sign. It states “GRADE PENDING” in capital, sans serif letters. The words are stacked in the center over the New York City seal, which is round and less saturated. The cover of the book FOURTH WING by Rebecca Yarros. It is gold with black writing and a round seal-like image behind the title font. Its layout is almost exactly like the Grade Pending sanitation sign.

I came incredibly close to buying this set this week, if for no other reason than desperately wanting to fix the way Return of the King is upside down.

But I’m holding out for a fancy matched set.
A packaged set of J. R. R. Tolkien’s Hobbit and Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Hobbit is bound in burgundy; The Fellowship of the Ring is yellow; The Two Towers is tan; and The Return of the King is brown-gray and, distressingly, packaged upside down compared to the other books.

Fully lit, with extra light from my finally lighting these tea lights, too.

Let’s be lights in the darkness, shining justice, hope, and stubborn existence to all no matter who tries to deny.
A space shuttle menorah with an astronaut standing on the moon. The astronaut holds a blue flag with a menorah on it, and the space shuttle has dreidel windows and reads “Happy Hanukkah” where it would normally have a name. It has candles in three shades of blue and has three Jewish star shaped tealight holders lit in front of it.

I have four options: my grandparent’s trio and my absurd one.
A trio of menorahs: the left one is silver with gold cups in the shape of a tree; the middle one is glass in a rippling arc; the right one is brass and looks like a camel. All have colorful orange, purple, yellow, red, and blue candles. A space shuttle menorah with an astronaut standing on the moon.

Three different menorahs with seven candles plus the shamash lit. The far left menorah is a bronze camel with colorful candles, the middle menorah is an arched glass one with colorful candles, and the right menorah is a silver tree with gold candle cups with white beeswax candles.

Happy Hanukkamas, everyone.
A menorah on a small gold and white table. The menorah has a blue candle in the shamash holder and a darker blue candle in the farthest right holder. The menorah is decorated with a space shuttle where each window is shaped like a dreidel, and a little astronaut standing on the moon holding a flag with another menorah on it. There are three Jewish star candle holders around it in silver, light blue, and dark blue, and kitchen clutter behind it.

Anyway we lost horribly at poker but I left with a free air fryer and a vase that finally let me deploy my hundreds of Lego twigs so I’m still calling it a win.

This is how Marceline watched me the entire time I did a workout today. Lounged. Staring. Such a weirdo.
A fluffy black cat sitting on a sofa. She has one leg sticking out and the other curled around her body, and her chin is resting on the curled up leg. Her eyes are very big as she stares intently at something off camera.

that belonged to her best friend. (Their death kicked off her role as an adventurer and, unbeknownst to her at the time, her reaction to it is why she ended up chosen for her role.)

And for fun, some visuals of her, credits in alt text!
