teenage pearl "redesign" but i'm really just trying to improve on the current design. there are better ways to incorporate that bead in her hair :"D p sure it's to tie her and maya's designs so i pushed it with her bangs as well lol
#.docx#feel like adding more hair for the beads kind of overcomplicate her silhouette.... but it's cute :"D#i could also just mirror the little bead thing. would be infinitely better than just the weird asymmetric one she has going on#i'll explore this at home LOL i've just been doing this instead of class work

Hiii, i love your stuff and kinda from a distance really look up at you for, in my perception, being able to express yourself without giving a fuck. Thats sick dude, Im so so afraid, of absolutely everything, its nice to think like i might grow into someone less apologetic of my existence. Nice to see people just being yknow
hey, thank you, this is really really nice. the secret that is probably not a secret is that i am also deeply afraid a lot of the time lmao -- but less than i used to be, and in ways that feel less stifling and self-suffocating, if that makes sense.
like, it used to be "i'm scared that if i express myself the way i want to, everyone will find me obnoxious, so let's just sand those edges down to be safe" -- now my fears are more like "now that i'm expressing myself in a way that feels natural and real, i'm afraid that it's all stupid/vapid/not worthwhile or meaningful" (<- specifically abt my art) or "i'm happy that i talk and act the way i want to now, but what if it makes me impossible to befriend," etc etc etc. which still feels bad and puts me in a funk a lot of the time but at least it's a fear that comes After/in reaction to doing stuff, rather than a fear that STOPS me from doing stuff, you know? like, it's evolved into a kind of fear that's less in my way.
anyway. i believe you'll experience something like this, because wanting to grow is the first step of growing. the fact that u hope or wish for something different means you're already on your way. to fewer fucks!! or at least distributing the fucks u give in a way that serves u better
#stuff like accepting that i'm reserved and i'm not very accessible via messages.#or that my online tone isn't very bubbly and it's weird and uncomfortable to force it.#i stop letting fears about that shape my behavior ('i'll look mean or snotty so let's force markers of Friendliness to avoid that!!') -#- and instead act the way i want to and then trade it in for new fears that come After the action.#also a good reminder to give urself is that if ur fear is abt how other ppl perceive u (as 90% of mine is personally)#u really... can't actually control that. and being very very anxious abt it all the time is usually ur brain throwing a tantrum abt not--#--having that control. bc it is understandably very scary that u don't have that control#as much as it sucks + is terrifying the truth is the only thing u can do is ask urself 'am i behaving in a way that i'm proud of'#'am i behaving in a way that's in alignment w my values + what i think is important'#bc if the answer to that is yes and somebody hates u or is deeply offended by ur existence anyway. well. literally not ur problem#but obv being at peace w that is way way easier said than done + requires tons of practice and will take. probably. years. which is fine#i am stuck with myself. i can either contort myself forever trying to be someone everyone will like and find totally nonthreatening and-#inoffensive and in the process exhaust myself totally and never feel safe or natural myself. OR#i can say okay. so i am a kind of prickly guy with stern and drab speech patterns and close to no social energy. and i think i can still be#-sexy and fun this way. and it is up to other ppl to figure out if they can agree w me on that#ANYWAY enough rambling for now. just another one of those things i think abt a lot so i have a lot of ready-made sentences abt it in mind

I've been doing a lot of grocery delivery in the country lately, so I ordered myself a nice bumper sticker so I fit in with everyone else's stuff :)
I've seen a lot of these lately, but they were all of a pride flag I don't recognize. Not sure which gender/sexuality has the red and white stripes with the blue with white stars in the corner, but I guess it's an ok design. The rainbow is the traditional LGBT flag, though, so I feel it symbolizes the collective queer community a little better and will be a little more noticeable/recognizable than niche flags, like this stars and stripes guy.
#queer#pride#rainbow#flag#gay#lgbt#fr tho I've seen so many q-anon and trump stickers that i feel like this'll either be really funny or I'll get my windows smashed in#for some reason the country here isn't just chill people eeking out a living doing what they can#it's all super well off people who immigrated from elsewhere in the us and are incredibly aggressive#I'm from the middle of nowhere. country folk are typically very kind even if they're a little ignorant to shit like being gay or trans.#but this is the kind of people where i got called a dyke twice just walking through kroger#i had the person behind me at mcdonalds yelling about my sticker that says i don't break for kids#anyone i know who has lived in that area for a long time hates all these new people#they've driven up housing prices to be just as much as in the city. they're all republicans who fled California or Illinois...#...and they brought with them their more radical views and hateful big-city attitudes#like yeah. this wasn't a place to be comfortably out as gay beforehand. now it's actively hostile instead of you get weird stares kinda shit

its kind of funny to me that in the comics supergirl kind of occupies the spot for like the edgy superman. which is kind of weird for her typical role as kid sidekick to superman because her thing as a character (at least the versions of her character that i like) is that she doesn't have a reason to help anybody and doesn't like earth. edgy superman. but she's also the kid sidekick. strange juxtaposition
#it obviously depends on which comic you're reading#cause like there are completely different versions of supergirl depending on which version we're talking about#there's like 3 different supergirls with 5 different backstories#there's the one where she's a kind of slime goop that mimics the form of a girl--that was matrix#that was the version from the 80s that continued into the 90s--the weird run that had like angels and demons and stuff#god that one was weird#then there was the main one which is kara zor el but she has like 3 different backstories on her own#there's the argo city one which is truly horrible where like she watches thousands of people die in front of her#that one was most recently used in the supergirl woman of tomorrow comic written by the vile tom king at least as far as i'm aware#then there was the pod version (the more popular one) which has two variations on its own#variation one was that she's actually older than superman but got stuck in suspended animation for like 25 years#and variation two where she's just younger than him and i don't know how that works#of course the argo backstory is also the pod backstory they're not incompatible#it does beg the question of which you think is more tragic:#waking up one day to find out everyone you ever knew is dead and gone or watching them all die slowly in front of you#anyway the third super girl is power girl who is super girl except older so she's power girl because they didn't do a 2 spider man thing#this is easy to follow right#oh right and apparently they made a completely new backstory for her in my adventures with superman though i never watched that#because i still have to finish the supergirl cw show which is ANOTHER version of her character where she's 24 instead of a teenager#which sounds like a small thing but it literally turns her into a completely different character#i mean like powergirl is a completely different character isnt she#what was i talking about? right i kind of liked new 52 supergirl at least the first few issues#i really liked the disorientation of “where am i who are these people where's my family” she goes through#shame it kind of sucked#i'm probably not going to finish the CW show by the way. i'll probably give up halfway through season 3 if we're being optimistic

Yeah of course I’m still thinking about plushies, what else (Patreon)
Most specifically thinking about magnets again - there’s the obvious of putting it in their hands so they can hold hands!
Of course if they’re on the same side i.e. right hand gets south polarity, left gets north, they’d only be able to hold opposite hands, so no handshakes (but I think that’s fine personally haha)
But on top of hands they could also have magnets behind their mouth! Kiss-magnets! My only real concern is the fabric pulling and developing kiss-wrinkles from being pressed against each other haha
They’d also be able to giggle with their palms to their mouths hehe, how cute! It’d depend on their kiss polarity
Which would of course depend on ship compatibility! Max has to be able to kiss Dex and Caleb, so if that makes it that Caleb and Dex can’t kiss, I mean that’s just an unfortunate side effect haha
#Doodles#SCII#Helix#Max Vyer#Dexter Favin#ZEX#And kinda-sorta Caleb under the cut - mostly construction speculations#Gah I want themst as plushies so baaaad#Baby steps thataway - I'm still unsure with the fabric I'm using but everything testing! Every little step forward!#Just the thought of getting to play with them hehe ♪#Also personally-funny haha - that black shirt has a gold zipper pocket on the front so it's a little like VUX medals to me hehe#Fun fun#I'll get to play with them eventually!!! I will!#Until then the speculations are still enjoyable :) About the different accessories to have on offer hehe#Since they'd have static faces what would be a good way to imply sleepies? Too scary to be tucked in with wide eyes lol#A sleep mask makes him look sleepy <3 I wonder what his PJs are like :0 Even when I drew him wandering around at night#I still defaulted to his usual shirt style but I've seen him in a T shirt! :0 Comfy cozy#Guess it depends on the season as well haha tho I imagine the Vyer estate has central air hmmm#Anyhow lol - poor ZEX! It'd be too easy to cover his plushie in stitches to denote Them and his MU and everything :')#I also like the idea of little velcro/magnetic accessories to attach to the face - so like he has the empty socket and a little patch aw#Would like very much to try dry-dying(?) his hair with the green tips as well - like putting that plush-blush on the cheeks but hair instead#It should be possible right!#Speculating hair shapes for Max - I think bangs embroidered right to the face are very cool! But I like the idea of flipping his bangs up#Not like Super long to give him an emo fringe or anything lol but just enough to cover like his upper lash line :)#Attachment parts are interesting for sure - almost gotta make like a wig-style design to go over his head! :0#But imagining the final version with him so cute and self-pleased and squishy and throwable haha <3 He's too cute!#All the stuff under the cut is fairly well-contained explained I think haha#Looks strange in a kind of x-ray breakdown but hopefully it'd be invisible once they're constructed! No weird pulling hopefully hopefully#Sure doesn't make polyships any easier sheesh - what if I want them all to kiss! What if I want them to kiss everyone!!!#Magnets and their binary polarity smh just gotta invent a dual-attraction haha

to be entirely candid july was such an insane month for me mental health wise. like i have been to therapy for YEARS and i am only just uncovering that i have the severe fear/guilt that if i am not productive i will be abandoned, and that i have OCD-like 'episodes' (?) that have sent me into psychosis in the past that i just assumed were... normal. and then also realizing that i was like massively fucked with during my senior year in such an insidious way that i never fully got until last month, as i otherwise blamed myself. and that's just a sliver of it? like. shit. psychodynamics really works man. also pro tip don't evade telling your therapist information just because you think it's "normal" if it feels bad because you might just end up saying something that in hindsight is a really unheard of experience
#ask to tag#mare oversharing? they would never#really cannot believe those 'episodes' are abnormal i almost want to poll about it but i'll just take my therapist's word for it#honestly the abandonment fear specifically is so fucking cutthroat and i almost regret bringing it up because it kind of haunts me#girl who has guilt over her privilege and recognizes that this is unbearably stupid but simultaneously has guilt over never being perfect#which is less stupid and actually detrimental but instead she mingles them both to concoct a nightmare unsolvable jigsaw trap#this is going to sound profoundly stupid but i didn't know that this fear of abandonment wouldn't stop causing me fear even after IDing it#like i assumed it'd just stop but nooooo i'm afraid of telling my mom that i haven't applied for a job bc [horrors that are unrealistic]#anyway. did not mean to vent but this is kind of lowkey killing me lol !#just. weird insane month for me leaving me with a lot of new reveltations but a hell of a lot new Issues

middle school a struggle bc there was no freedom at all, like it's not allowed to take a break during class or facilitated to study in your own way like going over the material at home, and higher education is a struggle because there is way too much freedom, like unclear/very open assignments and no explanation about expectations regarding anything
#higher education#mental health#actually autistic#university#probs varies between middle schools but instead of giving me material to study at home and catch up they had me repeat year lol#i mean they did give me material to go over at home later on but only starting from the repeat year so only afterwards#i'm not kidding looks like i'll have to take a third additional semester i can't believe i'm actually failing this much#and the weird thing is i'm not even that stressed anymore like i was the first years with frequent meltdowns? i just feel so so tired#''there's a participation grade'' okay this means i'll now feel inclined to say something despite the teacher's awkward silence every time.#..i say something that's apparently not the kind of thing that's useful#gardenelfi.txt

I wonder what made forcemasc suddenly pop because I've also gotten into it and been super tempted to make a sideblog for it 🤨
i'm not sure myself! i stumbled upon it by chance on tiktok (yeah i know), but it's not at all popular over there, so i was kind of surprised to find the tag so well populated over here. i'll take it as good fortune, though, because it somehow completely recontextualized the way i see myself and the way i'm visualizing my transition path, in the most awesome ways. i've never felt hotter it's epic.
#ace rambles#anonymous#forcemasc#also interestingly enough it made me comfortable calling myself a man instead of just a guy#i think this shift in perspective was going to happen in time anyway i could sort of see it coming but it really got jumpstarted today#before i was kind of sitting in this weird middle ground where like. i wasn't Opposed to being more masculine#but i wasn't actively pursuing it either#but between the forcemasc tag and the fact that i'll (hopefully) be on testosterone soon#i've both grown really excited to see how manly i can really get#and ALSO more capable of recognizing and embracing the masculinity i already have#i'm yapping in circles a bit but point is this has been a net positive‼️#also i highly recommend making the side blog i'm having fun with mine

Casual life update! I have made a whole list of topics related to my szpd in my notes which I hope to write about. There's at least 15 whole different things, good amount of them being personal experiences. I'm not gonna run out of content for this blog anytime soon and in fact they'll probably keep on coming. These are some weirdly cathartic times.
#you know i think it's best I'm confronting the szpd at this age instead of the years before#i doubt I would've handled it well#but also i would not have the maturity to process it#at age 14 or so i was literally looking at the szpd wikipedia page head on. got weirded out and didn't go deeper on it#but then again. I didn't realize just how much that kind of behavior would impact life if left unchecked#even now I can't say I'm dealing with this in the best state of mind. oh yeah far from it#for better or for worse I've got a somewhat better grasp of this. meaning i could direct my focus to something solid#instead of something vage and abstract. yeah this means I'm pretty much forced to think about this 25/8 non stop#give me a week or so and I'll have processed it better#I haven't been doing writing exercises like these in a good while. it's good to stretch my fingers again#life update

half 11 at night gender hits different
#i have been having. a weird fucking time#lile everything i thought i knew about myself is a lie kind of weird#like ive been keeping a whole tidal wave back#keeping it ina. box i didnt even know was there most of the time#everytime it tried to get out i shoved it back in so automatically i mostly didnt realise i was doing it#bc man is it uncomfortable#but i am only left with emptiness and disconnect#and everytime i shoved it back in the box got smaller and it was harder to shove back in#and here we are now#and its baffling and it doesnt make any sense but its the only thing that feels like it makes sense and it feels right to step towards it#but im not shoving it in the box again#i could life would be much simpler if i did but id carry on watching the girl in the mirror who's never been real live it instead#and i think sooner or later the box would fucking shatter anyway#WHOO#anywayyy thats enough hyperpersonal life updating for tonight 🤣#it's a very confusing time but also exciting and I've never been more hopeful that this might actually be it#im not ready to say what i think i am yet i can barely say it to myself in plain words but I'll get there 💜#mine#gender adventures with neednoggle#maybe delete later

me: gonna make a playlist and link to all of the artists' pages so they can get paid more than fractions of pennies for their work lalalala~ 🎶
artist a: i no longer exist under this name. you can only get this album legally by buying physically second hand. my social media even for my most recent band incarnation has been dead for a couple of years.
artist b: this album is no longer available to download digitally anywhere, though you can stream it (in limited locations). we're still very active as a band btw so it's not like we've abandoned any of our work, you just can't get it easily for reasons. you could mayyyybe buy physical depending on the album, OR!!! you can buy our Super Special Anniversary Box Set LP for multiple hundreds of dollars. smile.
#📌 [ my posts. ]#💭 [ my thoughts. ]#if there's a reliable way to get it affordably physically i guess i'll link that... but if you see like. a youtube link to a song instead#of a place to buy the song... 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️!!! i love that we have the technical capability to access all media and knowledge#but everything's paywalled or taken down for arbitrary reasons that don't seem to make sense bc there's some weird#tax loophole or rights issue or w/e!!! seems like a fucking waste of good tech imho but maybe that's just me!!!#also hi im eepy skjdnf long week of multiple doc appts + heart stress testing + had a very rare Fun Outing today...#maybe not the best week to plan that kind of thing lol lmao but ;; it was fun and interesting at least!!!!

Disregarding how it was realized and if it's a good thing at all, at least conceptually it's interesting how over time Tails's main character flaw (insecurity) morphed from the cutesy "awww he doesn't realize his own strengths"/"he just needs to believe in himself uwu", to a more realistic and ugly version of that where he lashes out at people, extremely avoidant of confrontations and consequences, and even acts in ways that makes him seem arrogant.
The ugly portrayals of insecurity aren't exactly uncommon, but it's usually with characters who are kind of presented as jerks and the audience is supposed to point and laugh at them so it's interesting to see it on a character like Tails who is supposed to be "nice" and sympathetic.
#I'm not sure if I should count tails being written this way as 'bad writing' because it... kind of makes sense? in a way#the thing is that he usually faces no consequences for this behavior which makes the audience find him unlikable#and it feels like sonic is coddling him when he tries to build him up instead of calling him out#idk where I'm going with this#i do hope he becomes more likable simply because it's good and marketable for him to be as a character#but also sometimes acting ugly makes him feel more real#idk maybe I'm just having a weird moment. but I'll post this anyway#tails#miles tails prower#tails the fox#sonic the hedgehog#sonic#project.txt

I am officially 30. Kinda weird to think about.
#Before anyone says you're only as old as you feel#I still spend my money on toys instead of food#It's just weird to think that when my mother was my age I was a kid#Not a baby or a toddler but like 8 years old#Meanwhile I've never really had a date#All my friends from that age are gone#I said some things about my 30th year back then that worry me#Testing fate and shit in a bad way#So this year is kind of pivotal#I'll just be happy if I can get my shit together#( ooc )

I forgot I made this actually
#akudama drive#the song choice was completely random#it's not like a good edit or anything... well it's not much worse than my regular edits#but it was more just meant to test sth#my new laptop replaced movie maker with some weird other software#so I just wanted to see what kind of effects it had and how things worked#so that's what this is#I don't love the program but uhhhhhh it's okay#I do hate the lack of native video editor#I have to open a whole new program just to clip a section of video#instead of doing it within the viewer like in windows 10#I think I know where to get a pirated version of movie maker?#but I don't want to go downloading random software to my new computer like that#... I'll concern myself with things later#sleepy now things later
