#but are necessary for improvement

Mmmmm reaching the point in wf where I know I need to do certain things before I continue the story or I'm gonna have a bad time but there's not really a good guide in game on What to do because the game is designed around dedicated players who already have everything they need for when the update drops

And thus I'm experiencing a burnout not because I'm not having fun but because having more fun requires pausing my entire experience to go and find every little thing I need to be acceptably stronger and spend like...several days of game time grinding for it

… and so it continues.

The way that Williams Racing has nearly completely lost the lovable underdog reputation they have carefully cultivated over the last few seasons in record time needs to be studied.

master artist and his number one fan

guy who is being so normal about the new additions to their profiles. i think abt midoris initial infatuation with his art slowly developing into appreciating yuzuru himself as a person and idol to the point he worries about how he sees him (ex: a bit of home party and in workplace survival rules) sometimes thats a lie i think about it a lot. and yuzuru learning to enjoy art just for the sake of drawing!! seeing the lets try diy story where he doesnt even refute drawing on midoris desk and was only worried that his doodles might cover up the mascot design compared to how discouraged he usually would be in earlier ! stories. everything to me i adore their dynamic if that wasnt obvious by *gestures to basically everything*

and happy pride month 🏳‍🌈

Something I love about Spider-Man as a character: even if there's no big villain to fight, he's still a hero.

On days when there's no crime at all, he's out helping someone carry their groceries or giving directions to someone who's lost. He doesn't need anything negative to fight; he's just actively trying to make the world a safer, kinder, better place. That's what makes him a hero.

I wanna talk about Beast and how it showed that the relationships between 'Odasaku and Dazai' and 'Soukoku' has the full potential to be emotionally dependent to an unhealthy degree.

Like, these people couldn't exist as they are in the BSD universe.

But they would've arguably been alive and/or safer if not for this one person in the BEAST universe.

This is such a beautiful sentence though and a great compliment

I'm so proud of myself about finances in the past couple months. I still struggle with money but I did enough meditation and journaling and practicing about it to make myself able to actually face my loans and credit cards and savings and bills and start really truly organizing and addressing them for the first time in years instead of just flying by the seat of my pants.

Like. This is a huge deal for me. I've felt like I'm in deadly danger every time I've tried to think about money for years and years. I'm finally able to look it in the face and stare it down and start to organize and plan on purpose instead of just keeping up with the minimum to stay afloat. I'm so proud of myself.

It's still a refrain of "GUILT (funny link)" every time I think about money but I'm able to actually make spreadsheets and face the numbers and monthly tracking again, and even make a new full budget which I haven't been able to do in ages.

still feel guilt, overwhelm, and helplessness, but no longer feel as much deep elemental shame and terror. that's progress baby

thinking abt creatives and self criticism and wondering if the whole capitalism grindset thing is part of why people think the only things they produce that are worthy of praise are things that take Significant time and effort, and thus when you're naturally good at, or enjoy the process of, creating enough that it doesnt feel difficult, you devalue your own creation bc you feel as if it didnt take enough out of you.

anyway. its very difficult to view your own work in an objective way but i can almost guarantee you that a lot of the flaws you find are not going to be obvious to most of your audience.

Your audience is not desperately searching for fault with your work the way you are as its creator.

being a sollux fan is suffering cant even check his tag w/o getting ersl as the first result😭😭 pissed me off so bad i actually blocked the artist sjdjsjjsjdsj

psa but if english is ur second language u should never feel obligated to apologize for ur english not being perfect. u being able to communicate in more than one language—even if it’s not perfect—is far more than what a lot of native english speakers can do and it’s an accomplishment !!

*covered in blood* this’ll look great on my resume
