Brain Recharge: 3 Essential Rests You Need for Peak Cognitive Performance

I explain "Why Sleep, Mental Breaks, and Downtime Are the Secret Weapons Your Brain Needs to Thrive and Slow Aging"

Why Sleep, Mental Breaks, and Downtime Are the Secret Weapons Your Brain Needs to Thrive and Slow Aging Last year, I wrote an essay that truly opened some eyes — and I wasn’t surprised. Why? Because I’ve been there myself. When I was younger, I used to think that sleep and rest were luxuries, something I could sacrifice for the sake of productivity.  I pushed myself hard, ignoring the signs…

I really like Machete and Vasco, but I was wondering how many more OCs you have? I remember seeing some kind of dog deity on your twitter account and I've been wondering who it was ever since. 🤔

You can find most if them in my toyhouse! I still haven't added some of the most recent ones, like Ludovica.

My stats there seem to claim I have 97 characters listed, but none of them are as developed and active as Machete and Vasco. Many have just a design and a couple of core traits.

Unfortunately I can't say which one you might've seen back in twitter.

We ARE going to bring up Captain Amelia. You have good taste! GOOD TASTE I SAY! *aka I just rewatched Treasure Planet and got hit with, "Oh yeahhhhh... that explains a lot!"*

honestly, the Meg/Jasmine/Amelia trifecta tells you 90% about me as a person. (the rest is covered by Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Uranus and, uhhh, I'll stop baring my soul to the world now)

and speaking of Amelia, this is tangential, but like -- there's one Twst comic I have been kicking at for a while where I needed an RSA sports/flight teacher and, uh, well

someday I will wrangle this stupid comic into coherency and she'll get to make an appearance (in the background of a single panel, half-obscured by a tall hat) (but I will know she's there and that's the important thing)

-turns myself into a Paper Mario Partner-

I'm a Pokey :>

Note: the sprite is incorrect, the regular cactus tail is perfect.

I gave myself arms & hands cuz I thought it'd be funny and tbh I really vibe with the look of it.

you can see my design concepts and 2 other ideas for what species I'd be that I got from 2 different quizzes I took.

In the end I felt like the Pokeys deserve some love, they're just funky little cacti creatures <3

almost forgot the sprite sheet below:

hyunjin on bubble: im drawing and i started wondering why i even draw. so i can’t sleep.. staying in that period of transition. the reason why i keep asking these questions and trying to find answers is, i think it’s because i believe that it’s only those who love me, that can help me find an answer or a path. because thinking about and questioning things that you don’t really need to think about and answering those questions is contradicting in itself.. is what i think? (translation source)

ED 13A - Hired Puppet It's all that you have ever wanted! Pray that you will never come to regret this decision.

(based on @youneedthisjob's current portrayal of protag that you should totally go interact/ send asks/ follow/ give love to because holy shit i've been going insane by fortune's characterisation of him. and protag's in a newly started arc akin to ED 13 so go send asks and get blasted with lore and pain)

((also also under the cut is a monochrome version without the pixel-esque overlay because he's too colourful. i want my grey tones.))

After everything that happened, I honestly just want MC and the brothers to get some sleep

Like, that's it, that's all I want. After the big reunion MC tells the brothers that they're all in need of some good rest, and everyone immediately agrees to go change into their PJs and meet back at Lucifer's room 10 minutes later ( because he's the one with the large ass bed ). And they do just that, they all meet in Lucifer's room, hop on the bed, and finally have a good night's sleep. For the first time in months.

official fic hiatus announcement

WELP IM SO SORRY I REALLY THOUGHT I MIGHT FINISH MY FICS THIS YEAR- but here we are... anyhow, this is mainly because of how busy i got this year up until the end of it so here's to hoping i might return to regular writing next year!

i am probably more active on my art account if you are interested in my other creations other than fics- but other than that you don't have to worry! i am not stepping down from writing at all and am still on writing occasionally; me and my beta just have alot of things happening this year- that's mainly why hahahhagsjd

thank you for the support tho guys <3 feel free to still send me asks/comments or whatever it is about my fics because im still very much into my own fics' lore (oh and the phoenix to his dragon is still indeed ongoing, i just havent gotten to rewriting the majority of the chapters)

Self-mandated “no drawing” night. This is painful.

It's been so long since I did digital art and posted it - I have done a little behind the scenes, but it's all promo for Oathbreaker and [new title of Sigil's Resolve] so I can't post it yet, and also it's not very good. I kind of don't even miss doing digital art very much? I mostly miss having done it.
