the cycle of healing. now available as a limited edition screenprint at prismavisions.com
one. pain
it feels as if you are breaking into hundreds of pieces you think nothing could possibly feel this bad, but this does. this is suffering, and it hurts. it takes over you and washes over your skin it is in this pit of pain that a new understanding is born. but you will not notice it, because in this moment the possibility of anything good is inconceivable.
two. detachment
after the pain has hit you will question its validity it is a visitor and it is not welcome. you despise it and detach yourself from it. you isolate yourself ashamed that your pain can be seen as weakness by others.
three. awareness
eventually you must face pain, in order to fully heal you must rid it from your body. this awareness is key in understanding why the pain had to happen within each experience of pain is a chance for enlightenment a moment that illuminates your mind.
four. acceptance
the acceptance of this pain is your opportunity to listen to yourself. this passage is a part of something greater, pain, the terrible thing that it is, exists for us to feel what it means to be alive and without it, we would be numb to the joys of life.
five. realignment
it is when you realize that you have the ability to realign your mind, and that through other senses you can still feel joy, that you separate your mind from your body and the transmutation begins to take place.
six. healing
your mind begins to alter allowing this new understanding a space of its own. physical objects may take on a warm glow, you may feel a lightness of being. if you do, hold onto this feeling, this is what comfort feels like. it may not last long yet, but slowly it will start to come back.
seven. enlightenment
you have experienced the worst of the pain and the healing has begun. there is a newness to everything what once seemed mundane is magical and you may be hit with enlightenment. your realization may now seem obvious but know that you never could have understood without knowing the pain that came beforehand. as the healing continues you begin to forget the feeling of the pain and the mundane creeps back in and your life returns until you are met with the pain again and the cycle is revisited.
may you find comfort in these words in times of great pain.

Okay but for anyone who legit wants to know how to calculate it correctly:
The elbow joint on average rests a couple inches higher than the navel, so if you measure how long the distance is from the middle of the shoulder to that point then you have the length of the upper and fore arms!
So if anyone’s wondering about legs too, the simplest rule of thumb is that the length from the top of the leg to the knee is equal to the distance between the top of the leg and the bottom of the pectorals:
And I wanna stress that when i say “top of the leg” i’m not talking about the crotch (please don’t flag me tumblr it’s an anatomical term) i’m talking about the point where the femur connects to the pelvis, which is higher up on the hips:
It’s easier to see what I’m talking about in this photo of a man squatting:
So yeah if you use that measurement when using this technique you should get fairly realistically proportioned legs:
But remember! messing with proportions is an important and fun part of character design! Know the rules first so you can then break them however you please!
In my dream I am adolescent Heracles having a prophetic dream about the twelfth labour. In search for the putrid Avernus I travel far south. The further I go the thicker the fog gets but there’s no stench to guide me to the entrance – on the contrary, I’m treated to the most exotic flower fragrance. After a while I spot a source of light in the mist and it soon leads me to a lavender field with a decorated crystal coffer towering above it. Inside the coffer there’s an enormous shriveled corpse – its chest being consumed by smokeless fire in complete silence. I realize this is the entrance to Hades I’ve been after and rejoice. Without delay I shatter the coffer and immediately wake up into the darkness of hell – as a naked youth. I remember a mad woman laughing in front of me. The shock breaks the spell and I wake up again marveling about the idea of unleashing hell upon the world as the only means of entering it.
we know plankton and krabs have been playing poker together for 15 years
we also know this episode aired before the episode where pearl turned 16
while the non-continuity & non-chronological order of the series means that assuming that pearl was 15 in welcome to the chum bucket is a fool’s gamble - it’s reasonable enough that if there is an episode about her turning 16, her character was likely conceptualized as being 15 years old prior to that point. but either she was 15 or she was 16 in welcome to the chum bucket … and either way, that’s about as long as pearl’s been alive.
we also know that pearl is krabs’ biological daughter … through a combination of facts … and were given reason to believe that something happened to the mother of his child shortly after pearl’s birth that made him depressed. she’s not around anymore and no longer apart of their lives in any way shape or form.
we also know plankton and krabs were childhood best friends, going on to have an on-again-off-again friendship for years prior to spongebob getting a job at the krusty krab … and the two are shown to occasionally have moments where they truly, genuinely care about each other deep down, despite the rivalry …
conclusion: plankton might have started playing poker with krabs to cheer him up after the death of his wife
oh thank god i thought you were going to say plankton was pearls mom
