#No year can suck as much as this year

I don't want a new year; I want a restart.
Whenever I look back at the past, I mourn the potential I once had. But I'm tired of that.
It's not like I don't have potential still. Maybe, it's time to stop wasting it.
We'll see what this new year brings us. All I hope is that I make myself proud.
#About 1 hour left until the ball drops#And I don't know what to do#I'm scared#But I'm also slightly hopeful?#I mean#No year can suck as much as this year#One thing I really want to do#Is make use of the time I'm given#24 hours everyday#I want to truly live them#To truly take advantage of them#Who knows#Maybe this is the year I actually follow my new year resolutions

autumnal chill....featuring the girl
#my art#oc#svanhildr#furry#anthro#goat#almost typed ''featuring the girk''#my favourite girk of all time baby#this took an INORDINATE amount of time but also i was experimenting with style so maybe it's somewhat ordinate#i did the brush/texturing too small but it looks nice when you zoom in on some parts#and i finally have a decent twitter banner so small mercies#anyway summer kind of sucked this year - not much warm weather. better than last year but still pretty bad#hopefully september comes in clutch with some last minute sun. so i can appreciate the autumnal chill more when it comes#also scrumping season is coming to a close and i regret not eating more greengages when i had the chance...they rotted off so fast#apple season save me. save me apple season#illustration

Remember: The burning sensation is part of the process.
#Mouthwashing#blood#body horror#Emphasizing here that this is in reference to a media and character and not a cry for help on my end.#Mouthwashing is one of those games that tickles my brain and checks all the boxes for my niche interests -#-but it wasn't something that got the silly comic part in my cortex firing up. My analysis brain is eating well though!#What said...It is impossible for me to see this scene and not say out loud: 鈥淢e in the middle of my work day".#While there is a lot more going on with curly I personally resonated a lot with his struggles with burnout.#Burnout feels like mouthwash to me. That you keep rinsing out your mouth trying to get rid of the rotting smell#but it's just surface level solutions. The real cure requires something far more significant to actually make a difference.#The job 'is hard' and 'everyone struggles'. It's part of the process right? You're tired? Anxious? Depressed? Us too! Chin up!#Actually I resonated with a lot of things within Curly (this is a curly positive space - he's not perfect. He's just human).#One thing being his desire to see the good in people and believe in their potential.#Because here's the thing. Some people truly do just need someone in their corner who stands by them so they can grow and improve.#And some people will take advantage of your kindness. You focus so much on their humanity while you stop being a person to them.#The horrifically toxic relationship persists because Curly tries to see the bigger picture and believes in the good within.#Anyone who has lived through constantly trying to reframe the hurt as something else knows-#-just how many excuses your brain will make to avoid cognitive dissonance. It's human psychology.#Jimmy sucks so bad. But we the audience have the privilege of not having years of baggage associating him in our minds as 'friend'.

no cause like
motifs and themes we've had for chara are like
golden flowers (the colour gold in general)
the soul
chocolate and sweets
knives
death, sacrifice and burial
save points (I WILL die on this hill) and erasing (raw game mechanics)
gardening and plants
autonomy, choice and control
scary faces
smiles (that double as scary faces)
...
And NOW the number 9, the highest number, where nothing can hurt you, where nothing can hurt anyone.
Here's to another 999 years of Chara lore!! I cannot believe we're getting Chara Undertale in the year of our lord 2024...
crumbles into a pathetic pile
#undertale#chara#safeutdr#analysis#utdr newsletter#rambles#yall dont understand how much ive analysed this little shit for years. fuck every evil chara theorist you can all suck my dick#THIS KID HAS LAYERS I TELL YOU LAYERS#chara fanartists please humbly accept this list of chara motifs to include in your work. i will be thinking about this for the next century#thanks for waking me up from my slumber toby

Odysseus with his head in his wife's lap, happily not paying attention to anything, humming one of athenas song and carving something
Some random guy: your majesty----
Odysseus: not bothering to sit up: whatever my wife decided is fine.
#the odyssey#epic the musical#Odysseus#Penelope#Odypen#Post-canon my beloved#Odysseus tried to hold court exactly one time before he 1. Realized he's very out of date with everything and#2. Remembered that these meetings sucked so much#Odysseus then quickly climbed into his wife's lap and was like penelopes been ruling for 20 years she's got this#The first time someone tried to insist that it wasn't acceptable for penelope to answer ody nearly killed the guy#Nobody tried to force the issue after that#The only time odysseus sits up to contribute is to be like 'no no we can take that route now I killed the monster that lived there years ag#This is not to say he isn't listening and paying attention! He is! He's just scoping everybody's out#Noticing who's more pushy when they're trying to deal with penelope than they are with him#He's got twenty years of politics to catch up on! And he's going to be sneaky about it#Odysseus post return gaining a reputation for being uninvolved and uncaring only to pull the rug out from underneither the other person#Penelope is a okay with this for many many reasons#First off her system is one of beauty and the fact that her husband didn't spend all her hard work to take back over the second he came bac#Is rare and penelope is grateful everyday for who she married#Second she gets to show off look at how well she did odysseus look at how clever she is ody ody watch as I scam these people isn't that hot#(It is and yes of course odysseus was watching)#Penelope enjoying how odysseus lays out over her like a lazy lion#It scratches her possessive side to show him off like this and she gets to play with his hair#Telemachus attending some of these meetings to learn (tm) and spending the whole time deeply embarrassed#Odypen being 馃グ馃 rat bastards in love

I know a normal amount abt waistcoats
#fantasy high junior year#riz gukgak#heard americans call those vests. deranged. thats not what that is#riz gukgak is a character made to target me specifically bc I am aroace and I love drawing formal menswear more than god#tho Ive been giving riz hard sole shoes which. wouldnt be good for stealth#I wear those I know. you can hear that shit through a meter of concrete#probably less important in a setting with real actual magic so its fine. but its something I do think abt#this kid is so fun to draw... its a Problem for me. I have to force myself to do my goddamn job knowing I could be drawing him instead#its a curse. I have to treat myself at the end of the day. sucks to be here so much

My hottest take on Jolyon & Uldren is that bungie should never concretely define the nature of their relationship bc I think it would be a retcon to say that Uldren was capable of defining any of his close relationships in any sort of normal, not insane way
#bro's like 'i love my sister but it's like shes holding my chain and i need to test how far i can run from her to feel valid haha it's nbd'#like he is certainly not capable of having a Boyfriend or even a Lover like he sucks too much for that#i want vague implications that they may have fucked nasty for thousands of years and only ever publicly referring to each other as friends#like it should be messy and unclear and confusing that's what does it for me

Little bright colored outfit with a fun vest ~
(shoes from ebay like 10 years ago. everything else is thrifted)
#ootd#jfashion#fashion#fantasy fashion#mori kei#....like... adjacent... lol#no idea what style this would be lol.. makes me think of like whimsical vaguely fantasy themed childrens book character#finally posting one of my aforementioned seven million drafts of actual outfits and costumes i have finished and edited#the photos for but just never feel like posting lol..#I need to find one of those people whos like 'omg i am ADDICTED to social media ugh i wish i could get off of it#im just browsing and posting like 60 times a daaaaay!!!' and take a little magical bottle and suck some of the social media#enthusiasim out of them. for moi. In exchange they can have some of my 'literally just never in the mood to post or interact with the#outside world ever' energy. We can balance each other. huzzah and so on#Though I think maybe it's part of the general thing I've heard of like.. I can't remember if it was in reference to adhd or just some sort#of general execcutive functioning issue type of thing - but the idea that things have to be ''just right'' before you do something. like#'oh i need to do this task. but i have to wait until XYZ first' or 'oh i can do this but only if X specific condition is met' or etc#The fact that I even have to be in a Specific Mindset to post. or sometimes will delay posting on social media because like 'oh well#I'm going somewhere tomorrow. somehow this matters. i cannot spend 5 minuts posting TONIGHT. clearly it will interfere#somehow schedule wise with the doctor appointment i have 15 hours from now. yes. yes. i must wait until my appointment is over#tomorrow afternoon. THEN i shall post' or etc. etc. lol. NOT even taking into account the many days#I just genuinely and physically sick and it's not even a mental thing. I just physically dont feel like sitting at the computer lol..#ANYWAY.. trying to get back into it. trying to get a business bank account.. make a proper paypal so i can start selling sculptures again.#selling clothes and sculptures.. posting about such things then of course as one must. etc... chanting to hype up and motivate myself lol#But yes. this is my favorite outfit out of the bunch so I am posting it first I guess.. maybe others later..#Also the purple dress says its from shein. which I've heard is bad fast fashion stuff. but maybe okay since its second hand? I havent#been to the bins since like 2020 or late 2019 even. and I think stuff like shein and temu has only become poular in the past few years#but I bet if I went to the bins now I might would find a good handfull of that stuff. Probably now not much different than what you#find in a walmart or a forever 21 or actual physical stores you can go to though. I hear quality of clothing is down everywhere no matter#where you get it or whatnot. What bountiful joys unfettered capitalism and exploitation bestows upon us (<being sarcastic).#Wearing one of my favorite little vests though. I love the texture of it and the clasps on it

the loneliness and sadness that creeps into you in a way that only growing up queer can cause. your parents can accept you and still make you feel like an outsider. your parents can love you and still reject parts of you. that old-fashioned kind of love where they think trying to mold you, make you tough, is better for you. or that quiet status quo where you just don't talk. and where everyone is accepted, though some are more than others. generations and generations it's just been easier to let it slide. to let it be. not cause a fuss. but then we sit there with a knot in our chests all our lives wondering how it got there
#this is about#all of us strangers#ofc your experience of a piece of media is molded by your own perspective#and i have been thinking a lot about growing up queer and how it still fucking sucked#for me. ten. twenty years ago. fuck it even five years ago#it still sometimes sucks#because i was raised without any queer representation around me#i was trained to be straight and to desire straightness#and anything remotely queer was mocked and bullied and judged#i saw it done by others and done to others so much that it's hardly surprising i did everything i could to Not be that#and the fact that i had to grow up that way#and that i still wouldn't feel at ease bringing a partner to a family event#makes my heart ache so much#i am often on my own and going home doesn't bring me comfort#it's like harry describes#it's just how it went#my parents didn't mean to make it like that#my mom even thinks it's sad#but she doesn't understand how it came to be#and i don't know if i can turn it around#adam's imaginings of how his parents envelop him with love and acceptance in the end#was a dream#but a painful one#a dream where your parents suddenly say all the right things#and for him they only did so bc they're dead and he could imagine whatever he wanted#/and still/ he imagined his mom rejecting his sexuality at first#literally so disgusted she can't drink her tea#oooooofofffffff.......#i need to think some more#my posts

waow 2024 is almost dead!!! gone too soon. feels like it鈥檚 been a big year for me art-wise for many reasons, BUT. i鈥檓 making 2025 bigger.... hopefully....i鈥檝e made some art goals for next year which i won鈥檛 explain in detail but they boil down to 1) do more studies 2) tackle my weaknesses (backgrounds, dynamic poses/angles, uhhh lots of stuff i am a one trick pony right now) 3) get into drawing comics, all of which are in preparation for 4) take my story ideas more seriously and get started on one of the many graphic novels living in my head. i have one in mind i HAVE to complete in my lifetime or i will die, but firstly i鈥檓 gonna mess around with some little standalone svanhildr comics perhaps. goat fans rejoice.聽
anyway i wasn鈥檛 meant to ramble so i鈥檒l just say THANK YOU for the support as always!!! i鈥檓 very flattered all of these have more than 1000 notes.....crazy. thank you. muah
#tumblrtop10#my art#looking forward to 2025 i really really REALLY REALLY want to get stuck in with my story ideas.....#my main passion project i'm more and more leaning into not even sharing i cannot lie. it's very personally made for ME to love and enjoy#and i suck at a lot of what i'd need to draw for it (humans interior backgrounds and an art style that's at least a little gritty)#GOD it's been taking over my mind so much i want to gnaw on it but it's in my head#so maybe i'll just do a first draft for me and me alone and when i'm in my 30s and maybe better at those things i can draw it finally#actually one of the characters for that features here hiii mockley!!! coming in at number 2 most popular of 2024 i'm so proud of her#her design's come a long way i'm kind of super happy with her as always <3 i love you my repressed old woman dinosaur#ALSO i'm SOOOOO excited about a character i made recently i can't wait to share her with the world#she's been a LONG time coming....my goirl.....#i will hopefully show her off in the new year#ALSO no one will see this i'm sure but thank you to my commissioners for the patience#i have now finished my break and will continue drawing

Alicent being ignored as a parent during those first few years. Alicent being expected to take care of aegon, while also allowing Viserys to take him whenever he so pleased, to show off and pass around like a model toy. Alicent being denied her child whenever lords and ladies were around. Alicent only getting him back when she was at her wits end, stressed after being separated from him for so long, watching people hold him wrong, play with him wrong, touch him wrong. Alicent only getting him back when he is fussy and no longer a source of entertainment for Viserys and his guests. Alicent holding her baby close to her chest during outings or events, stiffening when people ask to see him, hesitant to release her grip on him. Alicent biting her tongue when people ask to "give her a break" when she really wants to tell them that it's her baby and she's perfectly capable. Alicent being so exhausted from guests and Aegon being so little and full of energy, and her second pregnancy, causing her to doze with Aegon in her arms, only to nearly lash out when someone tries to slip him from her arms, engulfing him in her arms as if to fend him from hungry wolves. Alicent carrying him around, even as she grows tired, her arms burning and back aching, so she knows he is safe, away from prying hands and acrid whispers, away from his father's attempts to use him for amusement purposes. Alicent feigning a smile, feigning composure and enjoyment, when really, she just wants to be home, in her chambers with her son, where no one can bother them, where they aren't props meant to smile and wave for a man who does not love them.
(inspired by this reblog of my post from earlier. cause yes, @squgs [hope you don't mind me tagging] is right, she would very much go to war for her baby)
#protective mom alicent for the win#I feel like there isnt enough focus in how Viserys treats Alicent and Aegon like props in those first few years#he wasnt a parent or a proper husband unless he could show them off#he treated them almost like toys#and I feel like Alicent would want to rip her hair out over it#she hates feeling like shes on display. but she can suck it up and bute her tongue#with Aegon though? she's a lot less willing to just let it happen#but of course. what can she do? he's the king after all. she's just his little lady wife#just because she's forced to lie down and take it doesn't mean she has to like it or be willing#alicent hightower#aegon targaryen#aegon ii targaryen#hotd#house of the dragon#pro team green#anti viserys i targaryen#I hate that man so fucking much#people act like he loved alicent and aegon in those first few years#but he clearly didn't#he just pretended to#he was just using them for his own benefit

Riz pulling so much weight for everyone and securing votes vs Kristen being the closest to failing out of school thus inadvertently screwing him. plus her inadvertently bringing Kalina back, who as it stands serves as an antagonistic and deeply painful force in Riz's life. there's just something really ripe and tragic about their friendship rn (even moreso if you wanna throw in the meta that the narrative was steered towards Riz running against Kipperlilly) and it's neither of their faults. I feel like I'm watching a disaster in slow motion.
#fantasy high#dimension 20#kristen applebees#riz gukgak#fantasy high junior year#it's inevitable don't you understand it's inevitable#riz was always going to be deeply selfless and work himself to death to help his friends. he was never gonna say no.#kristen is put into a continuous series of deeply unfair situations and has to deal with the consequent pain of so much failure#do you understand me.#said all this in the tags of a funny gifset i was reblogging#before realising i can just make a post. i have a blog.#anyways i hope this didn't come off critical of kristen because i dont feel that way at all. literally this sucks so bad girl im sorry#chatter.txt

Stuff I've made on my phone, I guess? Of varying levels of "quality"
#rain world#animation#art#Context: image one is oc named Apryll that I love. She's 6-7 years old now lol#Next four pics are random stuff for my buddies on disc#Technically the monk one is for a discord bot that a different buddy is building because music bots SUCK#And the long one is that one time someone decided to stream something SPICY in GENERAL VC#The three emoji is my bae phiiinnn#You do not have permission to use them#Looks at the people that use my art as emojis (/pos I think it's really funny)#The hunter one is my ongoing Every Region Mod playthrough where for a time I had a reaper lizard that I would just throw at enemies#(come with me + lizard eggs mods) and delete all foes. It was fantastic.#But I have since replaced the very valuable and helpful lizard with two useless children that I love very much#Also apparently this isn't common knowledge but you can increase global rep with lizards and just. Be pals with all of em#By default.#Doing that with scavs and lizards eliminates half the threats in the game basically permanently#And the last image was the culmination of several dozen hours in Fear Nightfall + that arachnophobia mod-- it was surprisingly fun.#Very grindy#Not... scary. At all. Lmao#Anyways maybe I'll post some animations or something later#Probably not#I keep trying to finish them before posting any wips aka I never post

Ngl FH Junior Year has felt like a full on fever dream and incredibly on crack. I do love that we are focusing on the school side and how stressed and tired everyone is. We are getting to see the insane shit and mechanics of everything catch up with them. One thing I have to say is that I have probably never laughed harder and so consistently. I feel like the cast in general is expressing the overall burned out barely hanging on feeling in such a chaotic and wild way that's incredibly fitting really and it's hilarious.
#i just saw everyone get sucked into a vulture dimension#this is campaign is absurd and keeps trying to one up itself in that regard#but i love the cast and characters so much i love this world so this is so much fun#i feel like in a way it could be maybe disappointing to see certain things happening like yeah they are fucking up a lot#but they are so honest and realistic even in their constant regression and mistakes#i can feel the love pouring fron everyone even at their wordt character wise#also the jump in quality is soooo sick#d20#dimension 20#fantasy high#fantasy high junior year#fhjy#d20 fhjy#brennan lee mulligan#fig faeth#also bring back ayda i miss her so bad#kristen applebees#adaine abernant#riz gukgak#fabian seacaster#gorgug thistlespring
