my brothers cat had a cancer scare a few years ago from a lump and it took a test that took a WEEK to get back to us before they were able to confidently diagnose it benign. i don’t think it’s possible to diagnose it on sight DEFINITELY get a second opinion

I FINISHED THE PRACTICE HEADS!! but i like them so much im just going to order wigs for them

al 🎨 @coolcat8l.bsky.social · 18/03/2026

i’m practicing on a bald heads first! the progress so far!

TRUE! YOUVE GOT THAT. Thank you for your opinion!!! ^^ It’s going to be me and mr super clear against the world 💚💚💚

AWW TYSM!! my two friends that have read svsss basically agreed with you on the sy face so i'll probably do that. and so far it seems face 2 binghe has more votes kfdjhgdk thank you for your opinion!!! i'm starting w a practice head before i do the real thing so hopefully its cute!!!

SO MY QUESTION: i like the two binghe faces i sketched but i'm not sure which one will be the One, but i'm not sure what expression to give sy!sqq.... she's so tough. and i'm not sure if i like the faces i sketched for her if anyone has Suggestions i would lie at your feet and thank you for my life

I come here asking for opinions!! I got blank ball joint doll bodies for the lesbingqiu, and i got a bunch of blank heads too! But i've discovered the wigs I got already come pre-rooted into heads so instead of having a bunch of faces to work with, I actually only have one per.

i DO have a green sweater i bought myself that unraveled pretty quickly… i’m not good at sewing but maybe i can give it a go and use that to make her a virgin killer sweater..:.. many thoughts

000

the new problem is, i need to learn how to curl doll hair for binghe and also only one of the outfits i get as a bonus is cute… binghe school girl moment… i need to buy an outfit for my sqq doll…

100

for context, because i’ve been posting about it on my main and not here: i preordered a full box set of mystery BJD and as a preorder bonus i get two extra doll bodies and a ton of heads/wigs. I want to make lesbingqiu customs with them

if i manage to customize them in time, that is, as a customization noob

THE DOLLS I PREORDERED SHIPPED!!! I MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE LESBINGQIU DOLLS BEFORE AB AND TAKE THEM AROUND W ME

what helps for me is if u google “what skills can i put on a resume if i do/did X” and then u can pick or choose there— but otherwise every place wants dif things out of a resume ;-;) some want ur entire list of exp (which include freelance, volunteer, schoolwork) while others only want the relevant

i promised someone in the big bang server an octobing (he's a flapjack!) if they finished writing 1k and they did!

(grandma voice) BACK IN MY DAY, WE ONLY HAD ONE SET OF FAN DESIGNS AS OFFICIAL REFERENCES AND WE WORSHIPPED THEM LIKE GODS jdsfgkjsdfk

i originally drew him bc i gifted my highschool friends with charms of their OCs/fave characters and while I was ordering them I wanted something for me too ksdjfghksd so I have a physical charm of the first one tucked away in the bowels of my storage somewhere

anygays i redrew one of my very first sqq arts from 2018? 2019? i honestly think its the first time I've drawn him in color since then too LMAO

happy 2026!!!! i need to draw at least once a month so i can do my end of the year recap!! no more blank months I will survive!!!!!

000

NO WORRIES!!! i’m usually shy to talk to ppl i haven’t before but im passionate about helping ppl try n navigate the college system bc they make it hard as possible and i learned what i have through experiencing the Horrors so i love to pass it on to save others ><

without the financial aid i’d honestly be unable to do it— but there’s also certification programs if you want to go straight into history work too!! public history or museum studies are generally those kinds of certificates!!

YEAH it was more like additional payments for the TA work— it was more money than i’ve ever made part-time (about $550/week) but it varies from program to program; kids in the arch program told me they get $250/week but my director said he refuses to admit kids if they didn’t get that much at least

2) for masters there’s a form of financial aid where they pay YOU for the degree (assistanceships) IF U LIVE IN AMERICA THAT IS— when i did my masters i got it and in return for TA’ing for my professors i got my tuition covered AND a pretty hefty “allowance” from my uni! it’s fulfilling if u can!!

SORRY FOR REPLYING but as some1 who just finished a masters in a history field if u really wanna do it 1) being a student opens up a TON of opportunities for internships at historic sites/museums theres a lot of really good ones only for undergrads especially that im extremely jealous i didnt do
