Day 300 of posting Jevil every day

#gosh this doesn’t feel real #it doesn’t feel like I’ve drawn this many Jevils #have I really drawn that many?#man #And I’m not even satisfied with how I draw Jevil!#word of advice to any artists seeing this uh quality AND quantity will help you improve #I’ve drawn 300 Jevils but I feel like I’ve been stagnant in my improvement since the 100s days #this is mostly because I’ve been drawing Jevil quickly without ever really restarting unless I really don’t like the turn out #I also haven’t looked at or studied Jevil since I’ve started so I haven’t really tried anything new #for the final jevil I plan on doing a big high effort drawing so maybe the lead up days will be me experimenting with how I draw Jevil #I encourage you to try the same if you feel like you aren’t improving #dailyjevil #deltarune #deltarune jevil #jevil #jevil deltarune

#lyle the art guy #booster gold #michael jon carter #rani carter #I’ve been feeling really shitty about my art recently #(and about life in general)#so I really haven’t wanted to draw #cause everything just turns out looking like shit to me #but I decided that it’s better to draw something I hate than not draw at all #cause at least then I’ll improve eventually #so here’s that #I like the concept and I wanna revisit it one day when I actually feel good about my art again

Pretty proud of how far I’ve come this year

#I have struggled with crippling anxiety for a long time and this year I really wanted to overcome it and become more independent #like #I used to be absolutely terrified of leaving the house #things like driving and going places alone would make me have crazy panic attacks #but this year I’ve done a lot and I’ve overcome a lot and gained so much confidence #I’ve flown across the country twice this year #driven on some pretty intimidating roads like the highway and freeway #gone on solo bike rides for miles through the woods #eaten tons of new foods #I know those sorts of things might seem very simple and normal everyday things #but I have ocd and it can make my anxiety pretty bad #it can also make a lot of my fears rather irrational #likes like trying new foods and going new places are genuinely intimidating for me #bc it makes me feel like I’m going to die lol #but I’ve done ALOT of things I was scared to do #I’ve come along way #and it may seem like boring basic stuff to some people #but considering I couldn’t leave my house two years ago without panicking to the point of losing feeling in my hands and feet #I think I did pretty good lol #I’m starting to feel like a confident person again #I’m starting to feel like I can LIVE again #and it’s pretty nice #just wanted to write this out somewhere lol that’s all #maybe it will be helpful for anyone struggling in similar ways #to see that improvement is possible #lol anyways happy November #mae rambles

HAPPY THREE YEARS TO ME BEING IN THIS FANDOM 🎉🎉🎉

Looking at my sketchbooks, I think this was the first mfb fanart I made in 2021? (back when I basically only drew kyohyotsu. I need to get back to that I miss them) we’ve sure come a long way

#axel’s silly little thoughts #looking at my art from back then is crazy bc I really don’t feel like I’ve improved that much #but then I look at this art and I’m like holy shit who the fuck even drew that #I most definitely have improved #I also didn’t have everyone’s designs memorized as much as I do now so it’s a lil funny to see the inaccuracies

I think. Alphonse has a lot of dealings with disassociation and being in a body without nerves.

#fullmetal alchemist brotherhood #fma brotherhood #fmab #fullmetal alchemist #fma #alphonse elric #spenxer lou art #lou is an artist #sigh. this took three days despite the quality of it. I’ve honestly debated about posting it.#I’m not really great with comics but I’d like to get better so I’m pushing through it #grr. you can tell I desperately need to do a new hand study + actually use reference. but I don’t think they look. TOO terrible #all things considered. I had to change up one of the fingers in the third panel last minute so it looks. wonky. but whatever.#grr. . . I need to figure out new ways to lineart and render that like. . .look better #this is soo shoddy and thrown together for how much time is in it. grrr #moving on from my places to improve. I think Alphonse was heavily disassociated when he got bonded from both a lot of that trauma and #not being able to feel things properly as a big suit of armor but he’s gotten better over the years #And it’s another reason he got so shaken up by the idea of not being real. because he already doesn’t feel real so what if he truly isn’t?#anyways. sorry for all the tags. kiss kiss

I know how it sounds at first, but I really gotta feel bad for the boys that sacrificed edwin; I mean even the term “sacrificed edwin” paints them in a more sinister light than they really deserve– considering that wasn’t really, actually their intention.

they were bullies, they were homophobic (and/or were self loathing gay boys themselves taking it out on edwin, or were equally likely peer pressured into acting a certain way), they planned something stupid and mean to do to an innocent, anxious boy with the goal of scaring the shit out of him, all because he was effeminate and an easy target. but they didn’t know or expect any of the ritual stuff to be real. they were all laughing and joking during the ritual because it was just that to them– a joke. a cruel joke, but a joke.

teenagers can be mean and stupid and they usually regret it as adults and grow out of it / grow from it. they were stifled the chance to grow out of it, at least while alive. none of those boys deserved to be instakilled and sent to hell; they’re really not that much less deserving than edwin himself. they were all just kids, after all.

#random thought but. yeah……#I mean think about if crystal happened to be killed somehow pre-demonic intervention #she would’ve been deemed deserving of hell by the standards we’ve seen. no doubt about it. if the dragon guys were pulled to hell then yeah.#she would be as well. simply put- she was a bully #she was also a teenager. not a fully developed person. a very damaged and neglected teenager at that #it’s kinda like the criminal justice system right. it’s like. hey you really think sending them to be tormented is the most humane and #efficient way to heal these kids of what makes them act out and allow them to grow and improve?#Crystal’s such a good case to look at because she’s. well. to compare to The Good Place which you can probably already tell I’ve watched 800 #times and adore with all my heart. she’s kinda the michael of the group #no one knows it at first but she’s actually kind of a terror to people most of the time. but she’s put in a situation where she #suddenly has a support system- people who care about her and want the best for her- she’s given a purpose and realizes how much better it is #to use her powers to help rather than hurt (well. sometimes helping can involve hurting but you get it)#and by the time she’s regained her memories and has a place in the agency it’s much easier to reflect on her life and be like huh!#this system kinda fucking sucks!#not that edwin wasn’t an example unto himself but he was a ‘clerical error’ not a ‘rightfully’ condemned person #with his situation someone could argue that the problem isn’t with the system being wack as a whole- it should just be maintained better so #these ‘errors’ don’t happen and all the good kids go to their afterlives and the Bad Evil Kids go to hell.#yes yes I know they’re not in hell forever (hopefully) but uhh Simon was still there for over a century and for fucking What?#gay self-loathing and catholic guilt? his intentions were clearly not Truly Evil and more than anything he seems to have been punished using #how much he hated himself for being gay and how guilty he felt for it all. like shit aren’t those feelings enough of a punishment? if he had #lived through that ritual and edwin hadn’t– do you think he would’ve been Okay? I think it would’ve crushed him. chronically #man. anyway #this was an especially long ramble huh #rambling #edwin #edwin payne #dead boy detectives

2024 reads / storygraph

Fallen Thorns

dark urban fantasy coming-of-age

follows a boy settling into university, when after a date (that he didn’t even want to go on) turns bad he’s made into a vampire

as he settles into his new existence and the local vampire community - while they try to find who’s been leaving bodies across the city - he discovers that there’s something different and darker within him

aroace neurodivergent MC

#fallen thorns #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #I enjoyed this a lot!#there's definitely things I want to know more about...I think it's going to be a series? the only thing explicitly mentioned is a prequel #the ending is a bit weird and I don't entirely get the sun/star/moon stuff dfhgd #really great characters and atmosphere #great aroace MC in general tho minor pet peeve from me:#it does have that thing where the character spends half the book ruminating about how there’s something wrong with them bc they don't feel #things everyone else does etc etc and it’s like omg all these queer people and nobody’s heard about asexuality???#then he’s having a conversation with someone later in the book and he’s like yeah I know about asexual but I didn’t think about that re: me #and the other char is like: what if…..it IS you…..and he’s like omg. i AM asexual there’s nothing wrong with me after all! (in like. a page #like I’ve read this in multiple books LMAO. I do get that you can know about an identity and not connect it to your experiences #but somehow the writing of it like this is never quite believable? too sudden? then it's not thought about much after that?#anyway that's not a critique of the ''representation'' as much as just the writing I think - there's a few areas where I thought the writin #could be improved structurally or whatever. Didn't massively impede my enjoyment.#(I do also love an aroace mentor/parent figure!)#aromantic #aroace books #aromantic books

I’ve been really thinking of reopening my art shop soon… I’ve been taking some practice doodles (hence all the posting lately) while I shake off my rust and I’m finding things I enjoy working on again. I miss trying my hand at more dragons/OCs and colors. my shop’s so broken rn lmao but that’s a problem for a later date it’s just nice getting back into art

#my mental health is starting to improve a bit #took a couple years but I found some meds that finally work better for me #ofc things aren’t 100% but I was really in a pit for a while #like ‘did not leave my house in months and slept 14 hours a day’ kind of pit #so. any improvement is better lol. but nah I’ve been making real improvement and im doing better. a lil shaky sometimes but that’s expected #diagnosed with chronic fatigue too. which is unfortunate but not unexpected. i am indeed god’s sleepiest soldier #i feel like a raisin slowly rehydrating but considering i was in a desert before any hydration is welcome #just learning how to enjoy things again overall #one thing I just couldn’t get myself to do (and enjoy) was art. doodles here and there but nothing to post #and it’s kind of funny because I feel like that downtime actually gave me a chance to think about what I wanted to work on #even when I wasn’t actively practicing #just paying attention to things I guess. enjoying art styles #i genuinely think my experimenting with stained is helping me learn colors #i spend hours in the scryshop im glad it’s paying off lmao #i want to tackle bigger things but i just gotta ease myself into the hang of things again #for now im having fun and that’s coooool. thank you all for your nice comments #i read all tags while kicking my feet and giggling. thank u all #that’s the update on Me tho. more to come hopefully #starting next month/julyish I will have a significant amount of time to dedicate to drawing which i intend on doing #so who knooowwwsss #rambles #funny enough coloring has become my favorite part of the process now. it used to be lineart. now lineart annoys me LOL #i also feel like i kinda lost my ability to write which has been frustrating but im focusing on art first #anyways that’s a whole different tangent rant over

Those replies just made me remember this:

youtube

Anxiety really thinks we live in a world that works this way lmao

———————

i really enjoy that you could have just submitted the normal john mulaney delta airlines bit but you instead went out of your way to send me an sdr2 version. thank you

#submission #Youtube #windcarvedlyre #also YEAH anxiety brain truly does believe the world works like this #if i go to the pharmacy and ask for the medication that i need to live they’ll.hate me forever #and when i go get my vaccinations there and i have to ask for a special pneumonia vaccine #bc i’m immunosuppressed #they will call me a lying liar who lies to try to get extra vaccine #and when i show them the name of the vaccine that my rheumatologist wrote in my last report #so that i would be able to know exactly what to ask for (bc she’s chill like that)#they will say i made it up. and they will ban me from pharmacy forever. and then what #ignore that my entire family has been using this pharmacy for years with very little issue #(save for my father but that was more a failure of the us medical system than that pharmacy. hooray opiates)#ignore that i’ve been getting my vaccinations at that pharmacy for years with no issues #that’s… unimportant. don’t matter . bc The World Is Out To Get Me You See #god i’m still really impressed with how well that coping strategy works. turn ur doomspirals into an improv game. free comedy #AND it makes you feel better

if anyone has been on finasteride, how long did it take to see regrowth? i’m on my fourth month and i thought i was seeing new hairs but every day, it’s harder and harder to cover up the areas of my head where i have super thin strands. the density of my hair has drastically changed in a matter of weeks and you can see more of my scalp every day which is… incredibly concerning.

#everything i’ve read says the shedding stops at month three which #i can definitely tell it has slowed down considerably but i’m still finding so much lose hair when i shower #areas of my head where i didn’t have issues before are suddenly looking thinner and thinner every time i look in the mirror #and i’m scared in a few weeks #i will have no option but to shave it all #i read by month three you should see improvements #and i get it’s different for everyone #but it feels like i’m losing way more hair than i should be at this point #probably need to see my dermatologist again #just don’t really have a ton of time off that isn’t dedicated to trips with the bf to meet his family and i don’t want have to cancel #because i’m being a diva about my hair #buuuuuuut it’s getting like #strikingly bad #how thin and wispy my hair has gotten in like less than two months

My god I need to finish this website so I can write diary entries and not be this obvious abt it

#ive lost part of the embarrassment of splaying my thoughts out here when I need to get them out since I ramble in the tags anyway #but a small part of me gurgles and whines nooo ohh no its gonna show up on my precious mutuals timeline noooo #then again idek what I would write for the purpose of keeping a journal than share my wretched visions as they come the way I’m doing now #im so bored. ive always had sleep problems when it comes to drifting off so getting sedated was really nice for once #listening to minecraft music helps because I drift off focusing to each piano key and note so thats an improvement #but like I wanna work on this stupid website but idk how to start like it feels daunting somehow #I’m gonna get it done either way but I have to do it feeling whatever this emotion is and I know this but guh. bbbhhuhgb #also wtf would I even put on that thing. I can see myself getting bored of it really quickly as soon as I feel like I’ve done all I can #but i still wanna have everything in one place where I can do whatever I want with the css/html #diary #yapping #I wonder if I can get them to extract the rest of my wisdom teeth just so I have smth to do
