THE BOY AND THE HERON | Official Teaser Trailer

Ooooh I'm so excited. Can it be December already?

I just changed one of the tail lights on my car by myself for the first time!! I’m so freaking proud of myself, especially since I couldn’t find one of the screwdrivers I needed (it’s here somewhere, just not where it’s supposed to be 🫠). I did a little victory dance after I got it figured out and working right!

It’s just. The utter joy of being able to do some car maintenance on my own (with some help from youtube) and not having to take my car in to be worked on every time it needs something is amazing.

I was tagged by @thesweetcanadianpanda to do this little "get to know me" game so here it goes ☺️

Favorite color: Purple! It's the only color I wear on my nails too (any shade is fine)

Song stuck in my head: Labour, by Paris Paloma, it's so good and it puts me in a murderous mood

Last song i listened to: Bleeding Out, by Imagine Dragons

Three favorite food: There's so many, but I guess if I have to choose 3 it's my mom's alouettes en sauce, Japanese curry and crêpes

Last thing I google: Salma Hayek because she came up in a conversation and I couldn't place who she was with just her name

Dream trip: I've really been wanting to go to South Korea recently. I've been seeing a lot of things about it and it just sounds like such a pretty country

Anything I want right now: A time jump to a few months from now, this way I don't have to live through writing my thesis and then doing the whole presentation 🥹

Would you like to talk about it in private? Maybe getting things out will help you to feel better? Anyway this is for you ʕっ•ᴥ•ʔっ💖 Do you have an Instagram account about your book? Maybe I can promote it a bit

I really appreciate the offer but its alright. I unfortunately don't have an Instagram account for it. (I don't know how to work Insta 😅)

I just want to rant about how ridiculous some people are. I'm the main guest service person at my job and some lady today wanted to return a bag of potato chips she just bought because the bag said gluten-free on it. To which I was confused since plain potato chips are all gluten-free seeing as they are made from potatoes. The guest complained that we didn't have any of the regular Herr's brand potato chips and only had the gluten-free ones. I tried to explain to her that potato chips should be gluten-free free because they aren't made with flour. She said she didn't want the gluten-free chips because they probably have some weird oils or something in it and she didn't understand why the gluten-free things weren't kept separately. At this point I realized that this person had absolutely no clue what gluten was even after I tried to explain to her that gluten was a protein found in wheat that some people are allergic to and potatoes chips do not (or at least should not have flour in it). She then began to complain that she doesn't understand why they have to put gluten-free on that bag though and I know I should have let it go but she was pissing me off. I told her it was no different than nut containers having to put a warning on the label saying that they contain nuts, it's to help people who have allergies know if something is safe for them to eat. She acted like Herr's chips was trying to push some sort of agenda. She told me she would stick to buying Lay's since they don't say gluten-free on the bag so of course I had to return the chips but wait until she learns that most tortilla chips are gluten-free as well. I've dealt with a lot of ridiculous people in the many years I've worked returns but I think this one has to take one of the tops spots for me.

bye bye japan :’(

I realized just now that my asks for this blog weren't open, I apologize. Now they are open.

Anyway, here you go @heavytf2tummy , I finally had time to draw :) I used a reference from @adorkastock for the pose. It was actually harder to draw this piece than I expected.

I was supposed to draw a reference sheet of Avi and his scars to accompany this piece, but things happened and I decided I'm going to draw Avi's reference sheet later.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the tummy :)

I work in Big Tech™️ and on my very first day they told us to never take remote meetings in the same room as a smart speaker. Which pretty much affirmed my choice to never ever own one
