im back
#bungo stray dogs#bsd#fyodor dostoevsky#nikolai gogol#bsd fanart#my art#what do you mean I wasn't gone#but I think it's been a while since I've posted anything#I'm slowly getting back to making elaborate drawings in color and all not just doodles#well these are doodles but#It's been a long time since I've really allowed myself to take the time to properly draw#I didn't have the time to really get seriously into it because of school#the school drained me of all my vital energy I'm not even being dramatic this time ugh#uuuh it's been a rude end of school year but now I have time#I will be able to rest and I really want to get back into drawing#the motivation is slowly coming back I think#so have these for now ! I'll post some other stuff later#take care everyone <3<3

i love how fraught and complicated discourse around various utena characters ‘dying’ is when anthy is literally stabbed to death eternally by a million swords imbued with human hatred. and then utena gets stabbed to death by them also. like. ‘death’ is incredibly interesting in rgu because most of the time it’s this ambiguous figurative thing that has interesting implications re: ohtori as a closed-off world one can escape. we are all trapped in our coffins. mamiya is the only named character with a grave. nemuro memorial hall functions as one all the same. ruka is implied to have died in the hospital— was he dead all along? who was the boy we saw for these two episodes? is this dead boy the same boy, or is this just another coincidence from the shadow girls, cutting like a knife? it’s heavily implied that akio and anthy murder kanae by poisoning her, adding to the previous implication that they were poisoning mr ohtori too, but there are no perceptible consequences of this. kanae’s absence is not felt. she’s fed an apple slice. what happens to the bodies? we know what happened to the 100 boys, but what about everyone else? and so on and so forth. ‘death’ is a tricky thing in utena, i think it’s constantly functioning on figurative and literal levels in very different ways for very different purposes. dios died. dios was dying. dios didn’t die. he grew up. etc etc
#what am i trying to say here?#idk! think about all of the pieces you have#dying is complicated in ohtori in countless different ways#and i find it boring to see so much ‘this character is dead and that’s it’ stuff#when death is used farrrrrrr more figuratively than some ppl give credit for#and i think the movie too does wonderful things with death#and what ‘dying’ really means#being disbelieved. being forgotten. being rejected. haunting despite this#much more interesting to think about wrt commentary on abusive relationships than it is#to think about what?? oh me when my brother died but plot twist he’s alive and can walk on this road all cool. like?????#akio doesn’t have the power to make himself revenant#he THINKS he does and he absolutely has power when he’s alive and he imbues that power with such meaning that it does live on after him#but ANTHY. anthy is the one struggling with herself and her feelings and the impact of trauma and abuse (that power!!) in aou#he’s dead? he died? she brought him back through her memories? or she’s left him (metaphorical death) and he’s haunting her??#all such interesting interpretations#i haven’t mentioned touga bc i don’t have the energy today. if dead and just illusion of others memories then why active. why awful#like in aou akio is only Obviously scummy when he’s alive. his illusory self is based upon anthy’s love for him#if anime!touga is nothing more than nanami/whoever’s memories of him before he died……. why does he actively choose to suck again and again#like nanami wouldn’t do that. unless it was meant to be a subconscious thing like ooo he’s dead all along but that’s not what her arc is#it’s not ‘he’s been dead all along’ literally or figuratively. it’s ‘he’s unsafe and i don’t want him’#sigh. once again i am asking people to think about nanami and touga’s dynamic through touga’s eyes#it’s so interesting to me how people forget to consider his motivations or feelings on ANYTHING#like sure his motivations and feelings are scummy but they’re interesting!!!!! they intrigue me!!!!#compel me even#anyway ignore how i said i didn’t have the energy for this and then typed it all out anyway#dais.txt

#this is a very very soft announcement bc it might change (as you know me smh 🙄)#as some might remember i said like 1-2 months ago that id see how i feel about tumblr after cmi11.5 and see whether i want#to stay or close that chapter of my life! and i've been thinking about it a lotttt these days and i keep going back and forth#but i think depending on how everyone likes Entertainer it might be my last fic on here 🤍#which again.. can change depending on my mood n motivation.. im also not saying this to get attention etc but to inform you where i stand :)#writing is just a looooot of effort and tumblr has been vvv quiet (i also think my blog has lost some relevance but that's okay!! things#move fast)#i have soooo many wips i love lol 😭 but im not sure if i have the energy to write 20-40k stuff when nobody's around anymore :(#but let's see how you like Entertainer bc im vvv excited for it!! 🥰 keep spreading love until then <3#love you guys sm 🤍#might delete since it's an unsure post.. just wanted those who see this or care to know 🫂

isnt it great when u take your adhd meds and instead of using that brainpower for stuff like ASSIGNMENTS. AND PROJECTS. your brain decides the next 6 hours will be brainstorming ponysona names and making oc playlists
#IM LITERALLY IN HELL. IM SCRATCHING AT THE WALLS IM ON MY HANDS AND KNEES HERE PEOPLE#im having fun. but i also hate it because i should be focusing. but im so bored. but i need to do SOMETHING interesting or ill DIE#i want.. to make a character with a cupid theme.. name ideas i have rn are 'heart throb' 'love letter' and 'yours truly'#and i have an idea for a ponysona. its name is ripple effect and its special talent is skipping stones#but im also in class rn and we're going over the next project and i KNOW i have so many ideas for it and i want to everything ALL AT ONCE#for the assignment we have to redesign a brand design system and im going claires because i fucking hate the shade of purple they use#but even if theres no problem energy wise my motivation levels go up and down. its so over its so back#ill be like i can get some of this done rn. and then ill be like oooh i got plany of time. and then ill be like what if i lied to#buy more time. and then ill be like there are so many steps this is too much. and it just. constantly switches between those rapidly#and because i hyperfocused on playing tetris yesterday i now have tetris running in the back of my head. wtf#yapping

Cave Bean for @losech 💜
#been slowly getting back into art#this was motivated under threat of not being sent jelly#nOT ONLY THAT. THE THREAT OF DOG BOY GETTING JELLY AND NOT ME#was not going to fly 😤😤#anyways bribery and threats work on me#and i love the bean and am happy to have another of the fam as a cave dog#plotting brother bean next and then maybe a more matchy one of flint??#since his is. up in a tree. and the rest arent lol#but first brother bean so i at least have the full set#ive WANTED to draw but focus time and energy have been. lacking lately.#so the extra push to do this was v needed#ive started a handful of things but this is the first ive finished#other than a memorial cave piece for a friends friend :<#aNYWAYS#art#my art#cinder#west siberian laika#laika art#hunting dog#hunting dog art#cave art

Staring down that weird feeling of feeling like too much or out of place or annoying if I say too much or say things too loud or too off-putting to be like- WANTED in any given social situation. To try so hard to socialize just to- idk. I’d very much like to stop defaulting to that scared kid that was pushed away or talked over until I got old enough and desperate enough to say any and every rapid fire thought that comes to mind. Like filling space when there’s dead air then wondering if maybe I did the Too Much™️ thing again and A. Scared everyone away or B. Pushed everyone away so it would hurt less when they leave BC of A.
Of feeling like I need to be useful or smart or talented or pretty or SOMETHING worthwhile so people want me around. I can just be but then it’s like just being has never been enough for anyone to like- stay. Or care. Running is always a mistake bc it’s like riiiight.. no one noticed you ran, babe. You’re not even at the top of their list people to want around. And just feel so low about it that I talk myself into feeling miserable again.
I’m happy, ive been so much happier lately and i dont take it for granted bc it’s so rare that things go okay or that there’s a sense of peace for a moment. I’m creating again and im less hard on myself about it. I have hobbies again, I’m making friends. And still I’m like seeing the other foot start to drop in real time bc it’s like. You’re in, but are you? That constant nagging voice that sounds so much like my own going “lonely again? Good you deserve it”
#me: there’s time..#also me: THERES NO TIME#now see the thing they don’t tell you about taking lexapro is that you’ll have the motivation and energy to reinvest in hobbies when you’ve#been in depression hell for so long#also thank god it makes the excessive worry thoughts thiiiiiis loud 👌#like nooo babe there’s time#there’s always time if I’m okay with the crushing feeling of splitting my attention TOO much that I don’t connect with either fandom#that’s spooky#shaking and screaming like ‘don’t look at the notes it doesn’t matter’#and it truly doesn’t#sigh#I just keep coming back to that Brennan/hank green clip#where Brennan is talking about feeling like you just /dont/ belong even tho u did commit to trying you’ll always have that scared little#kid at the back of your mind with no friends reconfirming that no one likes you#I don’t know..#in theory people like me#but /i/ can never be normal about it#and I keep like.. I dunno#it’s tough spending your whole life never being the one people seek out#never the one that people WANT to hear talk#constantly feeling like too much and wondering if I should pull back#for people to get weirded out when I pull back#it’s exhausting#and it’s lonely#and even after 24 years I’m still the same insecure kid talking in the group chat while everyone else is silent#like am I too much am I too desperate#even like talking to my mom- who’s opinion of me truly doesn’t matter anymore just constantly interrupt me or talk over me#or ignore me so I’m repeating myself over and over just to give up#personal#fuck

hey guys what does it mean when you never have energy for anything like ever. like you literally cannot bring yourself to do anything all day. i cant even do the things i like. im just tired all the time. im exhausted. i feel like im on 1% battery 99% of the time. why has it always been like this for me. why haven't i grown out of it. why can't i just do things.
#im TRYING to fight myself on going back into my room and sleeping#i have to clean up#i dotn have the energy for anything#and then it takes me 50 billion hours to sleep at night#even if i dont nap during the day#even if i go months without napping#during those months it still takes me 50 million hours to fall asleep#my body wants to sleep during the day and wants to never ever sleep at night#i dont have motivation or energy at night#im still exhuasted i just simply Dont Sleep#why cant i just be normal!!!!!!#whats wrong with me!!!!!!!#why am i so lazy!!!!!!!!

#its weird. everyone ive met at work has been really nice#its a different group of people than ive interacted with thus far in my life as ive mostly not#had many friends and spent all my time in school. this group of people is mostly from the area where they grew up. mostly barely getting by#financially. mostly married or engaged or in serious relationships. and its weird. and it has been weird and maybe it will always be weird#but i dont understand how to interact with people. im not there for conversations im not present for but how do other ppl interact with#eachother? bc in a conversation i want to get to kno how a person works. what motivates them. what do they love? what do they hate? what#makes them the person that they are? i just want to understand. so i ask lots of questions and it feels weird bc i dont get#the same energy back and i have to conclude that either i have a very different mindset when im walking into conversations or else im just#not vedy interesting and no one wants to get to kno me. but if thats not how ppl communicate then i dont understand how ppl have friends?#and keep friendships? like i want to crawl into ur brain and understand what makes u tick#how can we b friends if i dont understand who u r? i dunno. maybe ill never understand#maybe work is not the place to make friends. but i dont kno how to interact with others outside of a structure#one of the ppl i talked to is maybe my age with a 6yo son and is freshly engaged and she was like: u moved across the coutry all by urself?#i could never do that. and like yea u have ties that bind u to the place u live. its easy to move around when u have nothing to lose#im so bad at maintaining friendships. i just let them drift away into nothing bc i dont kno what to do with the.#with them.#unrelated

Like they probably forgot about their asks but I’m gonna power through and post them when I’m done writing all of them🙏
I need to finish them before I start school in the fall but I think I could do it😍😍
#lowkey I kinda lost motivation for writing#I started writing at my peak#I was reading books everyday and I had so much creative energy to write#so ig I burned myself out#especially when I started writing for pjo since that’s what my inbox was primarily filled with#I LOVED responding to everyone’s pjo asks cuz everything was so unique#but at some point it started to feel a bit repetitive for me#and then I started reading less books irl#and then my senior year came around and I just stopped writing💔💔#BUT IM BACK#READY FOR CHANGE#IM READY TO TACKLE THE PJO AND VOLTRON ASKS#☝️👴👴#I started watching anime again and now I’ve been filled with this new excitement and energy#so I want to use it to its advantage#responding to asks and writing my own things for characters I like!!!#yall ain’t ready for this comeback#pjo#voltron#teen wolf

tired girl hours i’m just ranting bcos i don’t have enough time to cry
#tw rant#studying med is no joke. ik it was gonna be a commitment n that it wasnt gonna be easy n i thought i was prepared but im not#its my passion. i love what im studying and ive dedicated myself to this path but i just. its so hard n i just want to cry. everyday feels#so tiring. morning to night classes. when i get home i have to read 4 chapters MINIMUM n the books are so thick + exams almost everyday#i feel worse knowing there’s this 1 girl in my friend group that cant decide whether she likes me or not. one moment shes complimenting me#n asking where i get my outfits or my nails done or my earrings or whatever then praising me that i probably study the least out of everyone#yet still reach high student rankings but its not that im lazy im just so exhausted n its hard to have motivation... lowkey envy how my#friends study minimum 4 hours a day. we’re all tired n sleep deprived. even taking 30mins to eat makes me feel guilty. cant even watch 1 ep#of an anime bcos ill be thinking about the amount of work to do. and i have sm plans. i wanna be more active and have a healthier lifestyle#but i cant find it in me to wake up every 5am to go to the gym when i just wanna get as much sleep when im lucky to finish my studies today#i also dont see my bestest friends everyday anymore. some of us move to diff unis or some in diff majors. i just miss them so bad it hurts#and i miss the girl i used to be when i still had time and energy to indulge in my hobbies. i miss playing genshin and writing fics#just when i got back to writing and enjoyed it LOVED IT i had to go back to uni. i feel terribly lonely even when im always with people#im afraid ill completely lose grasp of the little things that make me happy bcos the weight of my responsibilities are heavier#im afraid ill be too focused on success again like i was when i was 17 and forget that its okay to relax too but idk#and i wanna meet more people make more friends have new experiences. i wanna feel alive again. and theres sm i wanna talk to or get to know#but im so afraid of people hurting me or disappointing me or people getting to know me only for the friendships to fail or we’ll dislike eac#h other. i wanna date and fall in love again and experience the romance my peers have. i wanna have someone to call my own person but the fe#ar of having someone only to lose them someday scares the hell outta me. im not ready for another heartbreak so i isolate myself and watch#people from afar. uni gives me sm freedom to do everything else and form my own identity but i dont wanna be Perceived. I wanna be heard and#seen n connect with people. but w my curreny state idt i can handle being vulnerable with others. it feels so lonely that the things i want#are out of my rrach but idt i can manage my time to meet new people and make new memories. i console myself by shopping a lot and going to#spas to relax yet i still find it hard to sleep. im afraid im wasting my time. im not as brave as i used to be. im not as efficient as i was#i get older and more tired and while i never questioned if studying med was the path i want i do question what will happen next#“is this all im ever going to be?” im good at what i do but day by day i lose sight of tje girl who knew how to laugh n smile. ik what makes#me happy but i rarely smile genuinely anymore. im so tired and want to sleep for a long time but i dont wanna fail. i dont wanna be NOT good#but it makes me cry when i know i can do many great things but i dont feel loved. people compliment me but dont approach me bcos they say im#intimidating or that im too quiet in class. i wish i could tell them i wanna join their parties too or i wanna meet their friends n hangout#but what if it doesnt work out? what if i wasted my time getting to know someone id eventually regret? what if im the disappointing one?#the days are getting shorter but it always feels like a long day. im ashamed to admit i want someone to hold me yet refuse to have anyone

My cat just ran outside while I was taking my dog out to the bathroom, refuses to come back while calling her and shaking food at her. Actively runs in the opposite direction. And ofc someone broke the laser pointer I keep on my keys so I can't trick her back into the apartment. I'm so pissed that shit broke off, all my other crappy keychains are still attached. The laser was how I got her back last time she escaped but she'd only taken a few steps out and I was able to snatch her.
And I'm not supposed to have her so I can't even notify the apartment complex a cat is missing 😐 guess she's an outdoor cat now :/
#she chose a really bad time to run away#i already searched and tried to get her back for an hour#I'm dead to the world after 3.5 straight weeks of 12-13 hour shifts#i feel bad not caring but she made her choice. she wants to go back to being a street cat 🤷🏽♀️#she's spayed so i feel even less guilty if she doesn't come back bc shes not adding to the population problem#i'll miss her but if she doesnt want to be caught she wont be#the only reason she got picked off the street in the first place is bc she got stuck in an engine#any tips or tricks people suggest I've already tried them. shes not scared or lost. she actively does not want to come back#this cat is ridiculously food motivated and she still wouldn't come back as i shook the food bag and poured some in her bowl#if she comes back at all I'll be surprised#she's lived on the street she's not an indoor only princess cat who will realize it sucks outside. i know shes not gonna come back#I don't 'not care' really. honestly I'm furious she slipped out past me.#but atm i literally have 0 energy left. work has broken me. if she comes back hooray. if she doesn't wtf am I supposed to do#i don't have money for traps and if she doesn't want to be caught she won't#i just hope she sticks to residential areas :/#i just don't know what else to really do if I've done everything i can in my power to get her back

#love this set#if i had more motivation i would consistently update my fansly#but it's never made me money and i don't have the energy to put into it if i don't get anything back out of it#though if people want it I'll give my fansly info#motivate me to post more there?

they should invent a depression that doesn't make laying in bed more appealing than other things even when you actually have the energy to do those other things
#like why did i crawl back into bed. why am i still in bed#like. i want to clean my room. i have energy to clean my room. i think im motivated to do it?#but. sure back in bed i go#i would also like to play a video game but know what? still laid in bed

yeah that post made me think. commissions as my only source of income is rough. its fun, yeah! but the inconsistent and frankly Low income of it all gets..very stressful and tiring
i only know of two conventions around here and they dont happen for a while and theres no guarantee i can get into the artist alley, let alone afford more stock to sell at said cons. other than that i dont know of really Anything art related around locally like craft fairs or galleries. so im not sure if i can really break into that scene around here ??
if theres a way for me to make money with my art that doesnt involve killing myself with commissions or trying to break into an industry that doesnt want me then i am Open To Suggestions
#i was thinking of maybe getting into vtuber model rigging or something. but thats like. A LOT#i could also get into 3d modelling bc i do know how to do that im just inexperienced rn#but also my true passion is 2d illustration. so i want something to do with that#and i dont think childrens book illustration is up my alley anymore due to style change#sorry if i sound very self defeating rn im just tryna think within my wheelhouse and limits#maybe Regular book illustrations would work??? idk. but isnt that just the same as commissions..#if i could find somewhere to sell like. prints. of my original work. thatd be cool#DAMN if i had fucking adderall i could totally get into publishing comics like id thought about doing a while back#i have Options its just a matter of how much energy and motivation i have to put into those options. urgh
