Welcome Spring 🌼🐰🌼

Here it is, my decoder for all of the new ciphers in The Book of Bill.

Huge thanks to Jim and trickenGF for help with the color cipher!

Happy solving, everyone!

I plan on creating fonts for most of these soon, but in the meantime, feel free to extract parts of the png for your own use from the transparent version below the cut.

I'll also explain how I got each cipher down there.

Theraprism: Brute-forced* using the first 4 ciphers in the book, then filled out via the decoder ring that appears in the dream sequence of The Last Mabelcorn.

Rune: Brute-forced* using the posts from OregonParksDept, then filled out via the stone that appears on page 111, "Cipherstitions".

Cipheric/Alchemic: Brute-forced* with lots of effort, and then filled out with the actual font its from (1651 Alchemy), where we discovered it's just the capital letters of that font. Womp womp.

Color: Brute-forced* by Jim and filled out via help from around the world! Some of the letters were only found via copies in different languages, since we have so little to go off of.

Bros. Secret Code: Solved using the key in the photo on page 161.

*Brute-forced means taking the symbols given, with no other information except the cipher itself, and using frequency analysis and word probability to break the cipher logically. Things like unique word structure (things with double letters, for example) help to speed up this process.

Cats would love the dangly bits on Essek’s lounge wear so much.

New sleep style: hitting the snooze button so many times that you sleep two additional hours in ten minute intervals. I call this Horse Sleep

And with that, I’ve completed the Flower Dance series. I’m so incredibly happy with how these turned out — just look at the fancy gents and lovely ladies of Stardew Valley! :) I gave each of the bachelorettes a signature flower, and pinned it to the suit of the matching bachelor.

These are all wallpaper-sized, and free for personal use. Reblogs welcome, but don’t redistribute or bundle my artwork anywhere else.

Also, feel free to request any sdv character in a style not already shown. I still need more clothing practice and I’m always looking for ideas :)

Has anything actually gotten better, for all the work you talk about doing? Or is it just treading water in misery forever?

Anon, ten years ago gay people couldn't get married in large parts of the US. AIDS was an almost certain death sentence when I was in high school. I was looking at job boards the other day and found a part time gas station job that had health insurance as a benefit, which NEVER would have happened 15 years ago. When I was a kid, hitting your child was extremely normalized in the US and my parents were the weird ones for not doing it. There is a vaccine for chicken pox. I didn't meet anyone who had transitioned until my 20s because it was so uncommon to transition in the aughts, and now there are some states that protect your right to have gender affirming care provided by your health insurance. It's not all states, but it's better than the number of states that had it in 2010, which was zero. THERE ARE TENANTS UNIONS NOW. WE HAVE A VACCINE AGAINST CERVICAL CANCER.

And all of that has been the work of a lot of individuals and organizations and research teams and activists.

No one look at me this is SO SELF INDULGENT.

I was looking through mermay art and my brain went: leosagi but mermaid/pirate au GO GO GO!! And now we’re here.

Tiny back story to this is that Leo got lost and swam up a river estuary instead of down back towards the ocean and ended up finding a certain rabbit who had to help get him back home. They became friends and were very sad to part from each other, but ofc they find each other again and it’s dramatic af <3

Summary:  Spock knows he should decline, should return to his own room to meditate. But then Jim takes a half step closer and looks up at him with such delight as he murmurs, “Unless you’re scared I’ll prove you wrong.”
