#Others sermons

A pastor with a horrible cold, having to preach through three services.

The first one wasn't so bad. It was Saturday night, and he was just a little sniffly. Other than a few nose blows throughout the sermon, he was feeling fine. Those listening didn't seem to notice much.

then came Sunday morning. He drags himself out of bed, head heavy with thick congestion that makes it impossible to breathe through his nose without a bubbling, snotty sound effect. He's tired, the early morning feeling ten times worse than normal, but he wasn't going to call in sick and make the small number of church staff scramble to find someone who can step in.

throughout the entire second service, he was pausing to cough, or let out a series of loud, stuffy sneezes. the chorus of 'bless you's' by the congregation becomes almost regular.

but the third and final service, he's sweated through his preaching jacket, having developed a fever. His voice is gone, only a gravely, strained rasp as he delivers the message, words not even understandable as he snorts and sniffles. The Bible stand ends up being dusted with mucus as he starts sneezing without time to cover. The entire first row was a casualty, but they didn't comment since the man looked ready to die with his chapped red nose and red rimmed eyes

nobody understood what the message was about that day, the only take away being to wash their hands

thinking back on it midnight mass was visually and conceptually very cool and that priest guy was very fun in his role but all in all I found the show overall incredibly tedious. to be honest

I hope we can get more yandere hantengu clones art with their loved one. Just here to remind you that I will (or we will) always support you null!! Take your time drawing and having a break, we may send you a little too much requests 🙏

uwagg you must be like a mind reader or something.... your leader is still new to this whole thing, and trying to rotate between drawing and rambling so as not to burn out. I'm so very grateful for your patience and understanding!

there are other kind words and compliments in my inbox, but your leader is a shy man who can't answer them without getting embarrassed. to those cult members, I thank you as well! I read everything you all say in this cult and keep them dear to my heart.

as you may know, your leader is slow, but also scatter brained! there are times when I think of something but get distracted with a new question in my inbox that can't really be answered with a drawing. this is nowhere near any of your faults, but may explain the slow answers. for that, I'm extremely sorry!

I continue to ask you to be patient with your leader and his blender shake of a brain. Thank you so very much for liking my art and being here with me. It makes me very happy!

OH, and I do have some more art in the works, yes!! Just need to pick away at it.

i took sermons of self-sacrifice and putting god and others above yourself and not being "selfish" really seriously and when that burned me out and i learned it's not sustainable to pour from an empty cup all the time i brought it up to this highly respected xtian couple in the church and the first (and pretty much only) response i got was "the verse is 'love your neighbor AS YOURSELF'" as if it was my fault for not "reading the verse properly" when the reason i was like this in the first place is because the church puts so much fucking emphasis on not being "selfish" and viewing others as above you and taking care of others above yourself and glorification of self-sacrifice while never having a single sermon that even says "it's okay to take care of yourself too" and the people who told me that don't know it but their response (and noticing how others respond the same) helped me realize how much this is all just bullshit and is one of the reasons i left

Canon worsties!! 🙏

Guess who just got into Midnight Mass :D

[hadesoftheladies]

hate going for christian weddings sometimes because i always see the prettiest women with the ugliest men, the sermon is always some shit about wives being slaves (but not like bad slavery, mutual slavery except the husband is a benevolent master which makes it okay) and making babies for their husband, the music is always lame, the mc is always weird and obnoxious, and older women keep fucking asking me when it's gonna be my turn and never take no for an answer.

I'd just like to say that I love your art! The colors that you use for some of the artworks, the way the lineart looks... all of it! I have a few questions to ask you about it though. 1, what app do you use for art? 2, what brush? The type of brush that you use for lineart gives it some sort of vibe and I'm here for it! Also sorry if this sounds a little awkward, I don't usually send things lol.

TYSM!! Don't worry abt sounding awkward, as long as you get your message across, you did well!

For apps, I use Clip Studio Paint

I change up my brushes a lot from time to time bc I get bored of how they feel, so idk how long I'll last w these. Regardless, i use the Artemus pencils!

it feels so cool.... and it's got tilt pressure where it gets bigger when you tilt it and gAH so good.

i dont know if you also wanted to know what i use for coloring.. but i'll answer anyway. for now i'm using these two, the rinotuna line/sketch brush and flashito!

the rinotuna one is my main one, but i sometimes go in and paint stuff with the flashito. i also use a standard air brush tool but i mess around with the hardness to get what i want. i draw, add a noise filter, RGB reverb, and you get my art!

[pitiful-sermon-ask]

} hello devotees and friends! My ask box is currently bursting at the seams, and I need a little bit to get through all of this. I will let you know when it is back open! It wont be too long, though. I just need to stop the income to get to all of you in a timely matter! Love you all !! :]

rly happy i got to go to church today!

sure my church has some problems (namely conservative asshats praising trump and a little too much biblical literalism) but overall i genuinely love the people there

also was nice to play violin again, since i havent played since the school concert and my confidence took an eeny bit of a hit from that, i really enjoyed just jammin to some christmas carols in a low stakes place

also as a side note i love christmas/advent for all the normal reasons and also because it means I get to play older hymns and classic carols instead of stupid fucking hillsong worship songs
