I almost want to make a mock up of this to see exactly how that shirt goes on

Illustration on a vintage sewing pattern for pajamas. The top looks like a pullover but the neck is not stretchy and there's a collar but there are buttons beneath the collar on the front

This book is about a cat war hero searching for a dog named Sheba he loves in a post-apocalyptic world controlled by a colony of intelligent ants trying to eradicate humans and it is not cute or fun. Whew. I'm half done and might quit. Except Mort(e) hasn't found Sheba yet 😩

I want to go look at this house just so I can hear the realtor tell me "An artist designed this house!"

There's a lot happening here. It's the outside of the house. The roof has been extended to make a huge overhang on both sides and the front. Backwards mullet. The deck surrounds the house and has been built around a tree. There's space in the roof for the tree to go through. There's numerous gates and railings made from a variety of materials. The deck has a second level

That wheel rim is not up to code.

Top of a stair landing. There's a short bannister railing on one side of the opening. The other side has a metal wheel rim to fill the gap

...

A room with purple walls and green wooden ceiling beams. The wall has a huge cutout with a view into the other room & a stairway. The floors are nice hardwood but with a big square metal grate in the center with a circular part on top.

Chewbecca@poorasfolk· Jun 4

beats me what's going on here but everything in this house looks like it was DIY built and that it might fall down on it's own at some point

hard to describe but it's a staircase that is built partially on a cabinet with a glass door. There's no railing on the top portion.
