Of Summer I'll Sing

Of summer I’ll sing, and joyous is the song That mingles in the dusk with smoke and sparks Or stretches up to greet the skirting sunrise This quiet hour bleeds with fervent praise.

Warm work-filled days and chilly nights, Humble adventures come knocking at my door. No job’s a chore when no job is beneath you And so the song is lifted up while washing cars Or stacking wood, or patching up a scrape.

Of summer I’ll sing, and singing Twines with cicadas in the evening air. I’ll sing of warmth, of crowded afternoons peopled with delight Of deep water, and the coolness of memory.

Knees sometimes bruised and bug bites bandaged over, Calloused fingers skipping over pages, Braiding hair and making fires, The song humming from throats made sore by laughter.

I sing of forests still and yet alive The song twines round the trees And swoops through daisy meadows And leaps again up, up To fields where stars add harmony

The song goes on, it tells the tale Bright and lithe, winding on for ever “In every masterpiece is proof of hope, In all our joys the mark of He who made them.”

And so I add my stumbling melody Unto the tune that turns and turns forever, My eyes behold each day of beauty fresh And cannot help but wonder at the glory.

So sing will I of summer, As long as song and summer still live on, And hope and laughter mingle with the dusk, And stars emerge to add their harmony.

#of summer i’ll sing #this is definitely a rough draft but something about it wouldn't let go of me until I wrote it #near and dear and beloved of my heart #living hope #zaki writes #I was going to title it something else (something creative) but no #it demanded to be just this #and so it is

I like almost never remember to draw it usually kdsjfhdjk listen. I just forgor #I always forget makeup is real #also dont ask me what's in kristen's thermos it Is usually tea but you truly never know #sometimes its soup. it can be lighter fluid. soap perhaps. hot chocolate #also if u come knocking on my door abt kristen's somatic in this piece: I wont be home #she gets to be gross especially bc shes funny and 17yo and gay. we give it to her #okay I. whoo I should lay down. finally I can move on to other things #cheers! wahoo. yahha perhaps

The leftism/anticapitalism leaving people's bodies the zeptosecond you imply that disabled people who aren't "productive" still matter in society and need to be treated like intrinsic equals who have a place in this world:

#disability #disability advocacy #described images #image description in alt #ableism #ableism tw #my full-time job is my disability and you're lucky that i am still 'productive' as-is #your boss doesn't care that you think you're superior for being hired by them. they're still going to treat you like profit machines #it astounds me how people will capitulate for oppression because they place their intrinsic value in their ability to be at the top...#...or at least 'at the top' compared to others. it's the same impulse that makes people think their cisgender status makes them superior...#...you are placing your worth into systems which not only oppress others but offer you no true sense of worth...#...ESPECIALLY if you're also being exploited (even if just a bit)...#...you have a job sure but... do you actually get treated like a human being? are you actually paid? are you actually safe?...#...if the answer to any of those questions and more is 'no' then why do you place your value in capitalistic production. genuinely.#and why would you DEMAND disabled people to have the same exploitation you experience. why do you DEMAND productivity if you are proletaria #yes being a leftist and anticapitalist are linked but. some people still internalize capitalism without questioning it #being a leftist is about challenging that rather than assuming you're correct i think #also scientists were very silly when describing time that's like. less than a millisecond i think

#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt #rottmnt donnie #no real context lmao #just found an ancient sketch of this and got out of nowhere motivation to finish it #thinking abt the way i used to treat myself in the past is very bittersweet #cuz i lost sm time worrying abt my skills and presentation and restricting myself a lot and demanding so much out of myself all the time #i still struggle with it #but at the same time looking back fills me w pride and love for both my current and past selves #theres a lot of growth and progress there #and past me wasnt half as bad as they thought either #never be hard on urselves gamers #go out there embrace the world embrace urselves

I don’t want an AI assistant in my browser I don’t want an AI chat bot built into every website I don’t want AI images appearing in searches I don’t want AI to help me write I don’t want AI integrated into every facet of my life in a completely useless and unnecessary way just because it’s trendy and it sounded futuristic to investors. AI has genuinely helpful applications and has the potential to make people’s lives easier and instead it’s being forced upon us in totally absurd ways that no one wants or needs just because tech companies want to increase their stock value and I’m going to fucking scream

#at some point it has to stop right? I don’t just mean ai #I mean tech companies investing billions into something that no one wants and they lose a bunch of money #and then do it again the next year and the next and the next #there is no longer supply and demand there is just supply with no demand

Ok! Design finished! Next up is what they look like using their light manipulation powers<3

Sun "rays" are tufts of fur that essentially lay down flat as Moon, sort of like porcupine quills. Moons star spots don't glow, but they do catch the light in a way that looks similar if he's not using his shadowy powers

#dca fandom #fnaf dca #dca au #scp au #dca scp au #fnaf sun #fnaf moon #my art #idk what it is about these guys that just demands pencil sketches coloured digitally

I always think it's funny whenever I post about an issue that directly affects me and someone responds with "you're an idiot that doesn't know what you're talking about" and I have to be like. Hello. This is my demographic. Do you see this label here? Guess who falls under it OH RIGHT it's me. Maybe I like. Have some amount of idea of what I'm talking about considering this is sampled directly from my life experiences. Just a thought.

#This is besides the point that I don't think I should have to whip out a label just to prove that I'm right #Not just bc there's ppl who are wrong about shit who still fall under that label #See: antiblack black ppl and misogynist cis women #But also bc like. No actually you don't get to demand my personal information just to measure if I have more arguing power #If you disagree with me then you should widen your information search and obtain information from many sources under the same label #And then make a determination of if I'm right or wrong #Otherwise you get the 'well kanye's black and he said-' responses #Whereas if these folks had actually looked into kanye's controversies they'd see that his antiblackness has been discussed for yeeeeears

Saw a post about working class butches in physical labour jobs and wanted to make my own, so: I love you butches who do childcare or early education. I love you butch nurses. I love you butch house cleaners and janitorial staff. I love you service industry butches. I love you butches who do sex work. I love you working class butches who do “feminine” jobs you are cool as hell

#butch #lgbtqia #lesbian #its me im butches doing stereotypically feminine work #when I was nannying full time I kind of thought of it as I was doing Nanny Gender #like especially bc I wore mostly dresses then for practicality reasons #which gave me The Dysphorias but yeah. my way of navigating that was to get a little fluid with it.#also even tho they don’t get perceived as such: all of these jobs are as physically demanding as many ‘physical’ jobs #like girly at least when I worked in a warehouse/delivery bay I got to sit down #look I could probably think of a better term than ‘physical labour’ but like. you know what I mean.#anyway. sometimes you have those I am uncomfortable when we are not about me moments #and then you remember that you can just go talk about your experience
