so recently, i’ve been making edits of the original A Hat in Time title cards to feature Bow Kid instead! i was disappointed to see that when you play on a solo Bow Kid file, she doesn’t have unique loading screens (though its understandable as to why), so i wanted to try my hand at making some c:

i’ve been posting them all on my twitter (@/bumbleberrybee_) including versions with text, but i wanted to post the HQ versions here cause twitter compression is. bad.

here’s part two! / and part three!

Hey, take it from someone creeping towards 40:

Ignore the fun police.

If you like it, order your steak well done. Get your bagel toasted with jam and butter. Put ice in your scotch and ketchup on your hotdog. Get red wine with fish and white with steak. Who cares?

If you want to, listen to pop music. Watch blockbuster popcorn flicks. Read dime store novels. Enjoy them.

Dye your hair or cut it off. Paint your fingernails blue. Wear whatever the fuck you want on your own time (ie, when not at a job or school or whatever where you can get penalized for breaking rules) as long as you aren’t like welding or shoveling snow.

Anyone who tries to tell you you’re wrong? Say “okay” and go back to what you were doing. You’re not hurting them by enjoying yourself or having things the way you like them.

There are no caveats or addendums to this. No “but what about x?” Nah. You’re allowed the things you like. You don’t have to justify your taste or apologize for it if it’s not hurting anyone.

And likewise, let other people live their lives. We’re all dead in the long run, so tend your own garden before you become fertilizer in it.

“…but why would you do (awesome thing)??”

Why not?

That gets the nosiest of people on most of the days. If they continue though, and you’re feeling charitable:

So? and Because. DONT waste your time with any other answer. Either they’ll figure it out, or they won’t.

Okay imma rant on main, this is informal so feel free to fact check me

There's this theory that early photography, since it occupied the same fuction in society as portrait paintings did, was not expected to be 'a depiction of actual reality' as it is today.

It was REALLY COMMON to just retouch pictures

Not just in the wacky 'victorians holding their own head' joke pictures they liked to do, but actual normal pictures.

There's this book titled “A Complete Treatsie on the Art of Retouching Photographic Negatives” (the title is even longer but i can't be bothered to type it all out, I am sleepy) 

Anyways, the book implies that if you did get your photo taken at a studio, as was often done, retouching was straight up standart part of the process. It was Expected.

You see all victorian’s smooth skin? Lies. Well, not lies, more like ✨ Illusion ✨

(yes this is the first man that apeared when I looked up Victorian Portrait, what of it?)

This smoothing was done by actual manipulation of lighting, exposure, but could also be done after the photograph was done with pencil, pen, or even by scraping it.

Hell, even body shape could be altered, tho this was more common in the Edwardian period as oposed to the Victorian one:

So what I want to say, is that just cause it looks old it doesn’t mean it’s “more natural” or “more backwards”, however you want to look back. Textured skin has always existed, fat bodies have always existed, most women did not tighlace to hell and back. 

They rendered their pictures just as we do. That’s all.
