Honestly the cliche advice is true. If you fill your life w things you’re passionate about, if you challenge yourself every day, if you give your own opinion of yourself more weight than you do other people’s opinions of you, you will actually thrive. Like no one can tell u anything
#I’m just in a whole state of mind rn#there will always be ppl who try to bring u down but pursuing the things u love will help u rise above it.#I absolutely still get anxious / annoyed at things but I’m over it sm faster. and soon it won’t bother me at all.#or at least it’ll have a healthy duration. bc negative emotion isn’t always bad. negative emotion is important and we should not ignore it#but overall!! preserving my energy better. just need to work on my knee jerk responses & I’ll be set#text

getting put on antidepressants for my anxiety and derealization only to experience dizziness and nausea like I’ve never felt, and being unable to even stomach my safe foods causing me to not eat anything but the plainest foods bc I have emetophobia, AND not having the energy to cook foods that seem palatable or study, which makes my anxiety worse, and overall feeling more useless than ever….
#just a vent post#my tummy hurts#my head hurts#I realize this is also bc I haven’t eaten much today#but when even bread by itself makes me dry heave#tried a classic bread with nutella and it was the only thing I managed to keep down#more than half an apple is making me gag#I can’t even THINK about pasta sauced or otherwise#everything flavorful is making me gag thinking about it and I’m SUFFERING#I have THREE research projects to get done and I can’t get the energy without fueling myself somehow but nausea after eating keeps#just#dodging me#making me have to rest#as soon as I finished a meal a couple days ago I literally got so nauseous that I almost fainted#my partner tried to take me to urgent care and they said ���they couldn’t dispense medical advice’#so the only other option was the emergency room but MY INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER IT#THIS PLACE IS HELL#I’M JUST TRYING TO GET BETTER

Cleo and Manny moved to Brindleton Bay after deciding it was a better move for their family and careers. Manny has never lived outside the West Coast and is a little apprehensive, but he managed to get a promotion that allowed him to relocate!

day 1 of drawing one of the cod characters until I’m comfortable with trying to find my style
#I am trying my best to find a ‘style’ that I’m comfortable with#Especially since I’m stuck drawing on a teeny tiny phone screen with just my finger#My digital art is the number one thing I am self conscious about#Because I know my actual potential can’t be seen with these limitations#I’m just trying my best y’all#IbisPaintx isn’t the most mobile-friendly app but I don’t have money and I don’t have the ability to get any better programmes#My parents don’t know that I am on tumblr or involved in any fandoms#So my abilities to do anything is extremely limited#I really do try my best and I can only hope that people can at least recognise that 🥺#call of duty#call of duty modern warfare#pet’s art#captain john price#cod price#cod fanart#John price#captain price#price cod#price fanart

Wait you guys are actually buying Disney products I thought it was a joke
(READ TAGS FOR FULL CONTEXT Sorry it’s long dies
#Honestly I’m only bothered bc I feel partially responsible (WTF EGOMANIAC OVER HERE)#I know I can’t control other people’s spending habits and my own habits are. Less than ideal !!#But when I wanted to spread my love for Wreck it Ralph I didn’t want people to get that takeaway 😔#IMPORTANT NOTE ‼️It’s okay to express your love for something through buying official things !!! That DOESN’T make you a “bad person” !!!#Still ! I think we have to let ourselves feel bothered by things and we need to be more critical of exploitative companies#Of course I chose to watch inside out 2 with my mom in theaters so I’m not immune lmao. Also using amazon / Etsy … just as a whole#But if you need help finding Disney movies without supporting them please just ask me!! PLEASE don’t use Disney+ if you can avoid it#I know we are all capable of finding our fulfillment from better places. But sometimes it’s hard#Capitalism sucks and yet that’s how we are endlessly pressured to live :(#We’re all at different points in our lives. Sometimes self care involves consumerism#Be hopeful that it someday won’t have to#Txt#again I’m sorry if this comes off as horribly egotistical to even consider being single-handedly responsible for#Social media is bad …. numbers bad…. Distorts reality and your perception of yourself…..#Or as me trying to guilt trip people in any way. Genuinely do what makes you happy but WE CAN BE HAPPIER & HEALTHIER I KNOW WE CAN#Wreck it ralph#Rant#Also sorry I have huge beef with streaming services I don’t mean to enforce that on other people but also.

I saw an interesting post a while back that said “Capcom made us [Miles and Diego/Godot] only have like two(?) interactions because they knew we would be unstoppable with a brother dynamic” and tbh it stuck with me bc it was intriguing.
So yeah that potential brotherhood, but that Godot/Diego AU I made (that I still need a name for)
Also I bet Gregory Edgeworth would have smelled like a bit like coffee, and so Diego just reminds Miles of that comforting presence 😭 (the von Karma estate was a tea household, so he didn’t smell much coffee after DL-6 and didn’t realize how much he missed it/reminded him of his father)
#doctorsiren#ace attorney#ace attorney au#diego armando#prosecutor godot#miles edgeworth#comic#ace attorney fanart#good guy godot au#art#digital art#my art#fanart#procreate#loving the inconsistent styles for Miles in the panels HAHA#that post also made me think of an AU where after the Fawles case. miles goes to Diego asking for help because he can’t stop thinking about#what happened on the stand and he can’t go to his mentor bc he’s showing weakness and that’s not allowed#and essentially long story short. miles decided to drop prosecuting after one case and be a defense attorney and he asks Diego to protect#him from von karma and also to be his mentor#so it’s like Mia and Phoenix but it’s Diego and Miles and then after Diego gets poisoned. Mia has to mentor Miles and she’s a little#hesitant at first because of how cocky he was in that trial but she sees that he’s genuinely trying to be better#also Diego would ask miles: you’re trying to be what von Karma wants you to be…well..what do YOU want to be?#and miles would answer: I want to be my dad#JUST LIKE IN MY 1985 ANIMATIC#ANYWAYS I’M BRAINROTTING SO HARD RN EXCUSE ME LMAO#ALSO MY FRIEND SAID THAT IN THIS AU (the one in the post) DIEGO AND PHOENIX ARE ENEMIES TO BROTHERS#and that’s the best thing I’ve heard all day it’s such a funny statement AND IT’S TRUE!!!!

Gourmand: Any minute now.
Hunter: …I-
Arti: I’m sorry!
Hunter: Huh?
Arti: I-I’m so sorry. For attacking you, and for- for everything.
Arti: I’ve been such an asshole to you.
Hunter: …Yeah you have been an asshole. But I fucked up too, I didn’t know what I was saying. I thought…
Hunter: …it doesn’t matter what I thought. I shouldn’t have said that. I, uh… I-I heard about your k-
Arti: Don’t. It’s in the past now.
Gourmand: Is it?
Gourmand: You attacked him over saying something that triggered you, so no, it doesn’t seem to be all in the past.
Gourmand: It isn’t fair to hurt someone for not knowing something that you never told them.
PART ONE IS DONE!!!!!!!!! Part two will probably come in about, uh, seven years, give or take. /j
(It isn’t perfect, but it’s been too long and I needed to get the first part of this comic out. I’m honestly super happy I finished, because it was unnecessarily hard lmao. Anyways I’m gonna ramble in the tags now)
#Rw siblings au#Rw Artificer#Rw Hunter#Rw Gourmand#okay okay so#The last frame is basically Hunter realizing that Arti doesn’t actually know anything about what happened to him either lol#Also we finally get the reveal of what that one drawing of Hunter being confused was about!#He did not expect to ever hear Arti say she was sorry#Like for anything#The Arti he knows doesn’t do that lol#But! She’s changing! For the better! :D#Gourmand is out here desperately trying to parent these two idiots#He literally put them in a time-out to think about what they’ve done lmfao#Neither of them have ever been hit with the “I’m not mad I’m just disappointed” before lol#But it’s finally happening! They are having a conversation!!! Yippee!!!#The time it took for me to draw this comic is canonically how long they were sitting there for before either of them said anything /j

al-haitham’s the kind of guy who tilts his head slightly for a kiss before you even lean in to give him one. he just knows it’s coming. expects it. trusts it’ll happen.
he’s yawning when he sits at the table for breakfast, hair slightly disheveled from sleep. he sits down and when you place the mug of coffee in front of him, his head angles a little for that kiss you place on his cheek.
he’s drowned in endless paperwork at the akademiya when you stop by to visit, chuckling when he gives you that look of despair at the all the work he has to do. you don’t even manage to walk up to him fully before he’s leaning in and waiting for the kiss to the top of his head.
he’s shirtless in the bathroom, brushing his teeth at night when you walk in to brush yours too, bumping hips with his as you giggle. you don’t even have to turn before he’s tilting his head so he’s exposed and ready for that gentle peck you leave at his jaw.
“have you ever noticed how demanding you are for these,” you chuckle one day, pressing a kiss to his cheek to prove your point.
he grunts, leaning in and burying his head into your neck as you greet him at the door after a long day. “what makes you say that,” he mumbles.
“you’re ready for one before i’ve even come close,” you grin, “what if one day i don’t kiss you?”
“you’d stop kissing me?” he asks, squeezing your hips as he nuzzles into your neck. something tells you he already knows your answer.
and he’s warm. he’s close. he’s here and he’s everything all at once. he’s all you need and everything you’ve ever wanted. he’s the messy hair of your mornings and the pouty lips of your afternoons and that shirtless back of every night. he meets you halfway—maybe even takes the first step so you don’t have to.
he leans in for that kiss before you do. because he needs you, wants you, loves you—and he never lets you forget it. so you turn your head, press your lips against the side of his head and run your fingers through his hair as he sighs in content.
“no,” you hum, falling in love all over again, “no i’d never stop kissing you.”

Part of 🟢 Leo gets Overwhelmed au🟢
Another year, another Leosagi Valentine Comic, I should make it a yearly tradition 💙💙
Thank you for the ask anon. My first thought was; ‘they’d probably think anything’s perfect as long as they get to spend time together again’, but then I realised; ‘yeah, Leo’s so gonna overthink and overplan their dates though ’, followed by; ‘Usagi’s life is filled with travelling by foot, (often in awful weather) and exhausting in so many ways, he’d probably love to just stay inside and rest with his boyfriend.’
Those are the same guys as in my previous 03 comics, just in their mid 20s and navigating the ups and downs of long distance relationship.
Last years leochi comic ⭐️
#leosagi#katana shipping#03 leosagi#leomiya#03 leonardo#03 usagi#leo gets overwhelmed au#tmnt 2k3#I was thinking about all the days my partner and I were so tired we cancelled our plans#and just snuggled on our couch with lots of blankets and hot wine with orange slices#snuggling with our bunny girl#I love going out#but that is as close to heaven as we get here imo#anyway I was having fun with The colours#and bg#trying new things#one of my goals for art this year is to get better with colours#and I’m slowly getting there I think#the other one is to practice anatomy more#and you know#full body poses#cause I really need to improve those

My first time trying out pixel art, with a wonderful little app for my phone!!! End product is very simple and hardly flawless, but I don’t think too bad for my first try!
#before I got my period I was thinking I’d challenge myself to try something new or unfamiliar for every day of sketchbook week#since I don’t have my usual tools#but now I’m in survival mode lol so if I can get something done every day it’ll be a bloody miracle#might do more pixel art in that case! this was fun and I want to get better at it too#esp once my iPad is fixed and I can get the app on there#experiment with a bigger canvas yk!#hilda#hilda the series#netflix hilda#hilda netflix#art#my art#digital art#fanart#doodle#drawing#pixel art#oh the app is pixquare btw! it’s very good great UI and highly customisable#sketchbook week#sketchbook week 2024#Kaisa Hilda#Hilda kaisa#Hilda Johanna#johanna hilda#sketchbook#sketchbook ship#kaisanna#Hilda (Hilda)#it feels weird to do this prompt as just them standing next to eachother but. here we are#I think they’re cute anyway so who cares!!

Any advice on drawing dragon wings? I have a hard time with making the digits (with webbing in between, not like, the thumb finger) look consistent, especially where they all meet at the palm
Obligatory tutorial disclaimer - im no professional, always take my advice with a pinch of salt
I’m not sure if this is hugely helpful to your predicament but it’s what I do when I’m struggling with wings!
#bog talks#Tutorial#I’m not good at drawings wings and am self conscious of this fact#I’ll try and make a better guide when I get better at drawing em LOL#also I just realised I gave em too many digits whoops. case in point
