I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who has trouble remembering developmental milestones. I put these together, but can’t take credit for any of the photography. Hope someone finds them helpful!
I saw this step-by step tutorial of how to Gird Your Loins and it needed to be readjusted.
Initiation Well Location: Sintra, Portugal
A pair of wells, called the Initiation Wells, spiral down deep within the earth, like inverted towers. The wells were never used to collect water. Instead, they were part of a mysterious initiation ritual within the Knights of Templar tradition.
Did you know that beetle wings used to be sewn onto dresses? Like, hundreds of them on each dress? It's equally creepy and beautiful.
oh my stars, anyone have pictures?
Explaining acá and ahí would be a lot easier if English still used “hither” and “thither”.
Like aquí is “here”, and acá is “hither”. Where “hither” means “over here” or “closer”; different from “here” which is an actual place, while “hither” is a direction.
And allí is “there” but ahí can be “thither” which is “towards that place” or “over there” like you’re pointing.
And allá is “all the way over there” or “yon(d)” or “yonder”.
If you study Spanish long enough you’ll understand “Olde” English a whole lot more because they weren’t as different once upon a time.
Oh, uh. I guess I should mention that I’ve made this thing. Three months after release sounds like a perfect time. Untitled Tile Painter is a quirky little drawing tool that lets you lay down funky geometric Bauhaus-inspired patterns. It’s 50% a useful thing for actual people and 50% me wanting to stretch my UMG muscles on something. It’s also a little bit like a control panel of an alien spaceship, as far as UX goes. Give it a go, if it looks like your kind of thing! It’s entirely free and all generated images are yours to keep and use as you see fit.
A short explanation of my layer by layer drawing of Central/Eastern Ukrainian folk attire, for anyone who might be interested.
A side blog where I'll *try* to keep things organised.yeahthatsnotgoingtolastlong
