Me: hm, I want something to put on the TV as background noise... Huh. Looks like YouTube is recommending something called The Last Unicorn. That's perfect, it's probably some old shitty animation that has aged poorly! I can watch it ironically!
Me, 2 hours later as the credits roll: *crying, cheering, buying the book, composing the songs*
Me, 2 weeks later: So I have compiled all of the quotes from the book that I think could make good tattoos, and also, HOW HAVE I NEVER LEARNED ABOUT HOW THE LAST UNICORN FUCKING SLAPS??? This gay-ass little fairytale fed my soul! Watered my crops! Transed my gender! Can't believe I heard of this story from youtube recommendations, of all places!!
#original#the last unicorn#tlu#peter s beagle#molly gru#schmendrick#schmendrick the magician#two of my favorite characters in anything right there in the center of the story! and I'm glad I saw the film first!#my reading ability has diminished due to trauma disability etc. but it seems like having a visual reference actually really helped!#no wonder i only ever want to read fan fic! turns out reading is not actually Superior to other types of Storytelling. it's just different.#to say otherwise is snobbishness I have been eminently guilty of in my life!#but like it is easier for me to consume tv and movies and that is fine actually. also that's why I'm doing a graphic novel lol#because i wanted to make something i would actually be able to read if i found it at a library. altho the audio book IS gonna be bomb#the audiobook is for visually impaired readers and anyone who wants or needs it! accessible stories for everyone! yeah!!#my gender was already transed but now I've gained an ADDITIONAL gender! which one? I'll never tell 😘#i am so powerful i have so much fuckin gender. my wife has no gender. and she is equally as powerful.#and also she has STUDIED THE BLADE#mostly zoro's blades from One Piece#normally YouTube recommends me shit movies like idiocracy or smth this is like if every day ur cat brought you a piece of rotten food and#then one day it brings you a BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED TALE FEATURING MY BELOVED TWINK FUCK-UP WIZARD FRIEND AND MY ALL-TIME HOMEGIRL MOLLY GRU#and also it's soft and beautiful and funny and fucking weird!! i wrote melodies to the songs in the books on my ukulele

Had a bit of a hard day, but I still wanted to draw something, so here’s some cold hugs!🙏💕
(But If I’m drawing that means I win, not the problems✌️)
#grey art#fan art#skulduggery pleasant#valkyrie cain#book recommendations#I was listening to the mortal coil audiobook#that’s why it’s winter and they are sad#so I’m trying to publish a comic book and it is just proving to be a really frustrating process#every time I think we got everything sorted a new problem appears#and I am going to go insane but it’s fine🙏#I’m fine✌️✌️✌️#drawing these babies helps

hi my name is sam and i'm a jamaican international student attending university in new york state, usa. this past semester, i had a huge depressive episode and didn't do enough research into the college storage facility i had chosen (because i do not have relatives in the state and am unable to ship my things back home (and then to the us again) due to costs) and ended up with a much larger bill than i was under the impression i would be seeing. my parents cannot afford to pay $800 usd right now and despite my best efforts, i'm barely making a dent. i'm trying to raise about $600 usd to make the bill more bearable for both me and my parents as well as opening up an opportunity to store my things elsewhere while i take a leave of absence for the fall 2024 semester. this is not anyone's responsibility but mine, but some help—no matter how little—would be very appreciated
$382.49/600
cshpp / pypl / dm for zelle
#if you'd rather not see this every time i recommend blocking the term 'college storage facility'#this is my first time doing this and ill admit it's really embarrassing since i'm not used to asking for help much less something this Big

a lot of posts about headspaces fall into a couple of categories: discourse (therapy device vs real emotional experience), advice (tips for building a headspace), or positivity. it leaves myself feeling a bit alienated as a system who doesnt have a headspace by choice.
i know for myself, the effort it takes to build one is better spent on other goals for my system. it sometimes feels like headspace is trotted around as the Main System Thing that every system should have and aspire to have, but i’ve picked up some other tips to cover some of the bases that a headspace also covers.
these tips might not be accessible for everyone and might not work for everyone, but these are tips i got from friends who are also systems and my therapist who is a system. take what you need and leave what you dont :)
having a safe irl space for parts to feel comfortable existing in
having safe irl hobbies for parts to use as outlets when needed
visualizing my parts existing in the space around me instead of in a headspace area, especially when trying to communicate with them
this isnt something i do, but having objects (stuffed animals, toys, etc.) that you can “project” your parts onto when communicating
having conversations with parts while looking in a mirror (helps with making responses feel less forced/coaxed out)
having mundane things for parts to do when they front to help them feel more comfortable
having many many many grounding objects/fidgets available for parts who may need help feeling attached to my current place in life
having safe system friends that make parts feel comfortable in self identifying and dont pressure us to introduce each part
having a journal/place to log memories when they appear. for us, it usually ends up being art rather than actual written journal entries
#plural#system#sysblr#multiplicity#did system#osdd system#sysconversation#oakley#these tips might be geared more towards cdd systems/disorder systems#but a lot of these tips were given to me from my endogenic friends so i have no doubt that these would work/help non disordered systems too!#for the projection tip i have not personally done it and im not really involved in communities like it#but i would recommend looking into poisc(?) communities for advice#feel free to add any other tips you have onto this post as well :)#headspace

I just realised I completely forgot to show my finished Arthur cosplay so here!!
You can find the process of me making the hat here! Everything including the hat and the materials was purchased second hand and using things I already had (the rope, jeans, journal, neckerchief, etc) so it's a very budget cosplay but I think it turned out well! The total came to about £45, there's receipts here if you're interested <3
#I did the drawings in the journal throughout the day at comic con and it was really fun!!#don't mind mr barrowman being in there I went to meet him too he was very lovely#the total for everything would be less if it wasn't for shipping costs <\3#but I fucking love that the riding boots have horseshoes at the bottom!!#the spurs make such a satisfying sound when I walk with them on#*insert that one post about spurs helping cowboy dysphoria here*#and yes that is a banana in my gun holster#the venue had a no imitation gun policy so I improvised#it was really funny#but yeah I had lots of compliments!!!#so I did something right!#mick squeaks#rdr2#red dead redemption 2#arthur morgan#red dead redemption community#arthur morgan cosplay#cosplay#<3#sometimes I feel like a crazy person when I recommend people buying second hand stuff#but I really do recommended it!!#it saves money and helps people in the long run#vinted and ebay and thrift shops are a lifesaver#love you all <3

Announcement: GOAL!
Hi! So we finally made it to day 100 - the goal I set out to do from the start but had no idea if I could actually reach lol.
I made this blog in the middle of dealing with art block. I hadn't really been feeling inspired to draw or create much for about a year.
The longest I've ever lasted on a daily drawing challenge before this was day 3. Now that I've made it to day 100 and I'm finally starting to get ideas and inspiration again, I'm satisfied :]
This is NOT the end of the blog. Just a hiatus until the next art block, which (let's be real) will probably be sooner than later lol.
Thank you to everyone who's been following along so far. I really, genuinely appreciate all the tags and comments and familiar faces.
Until next time! <3
#gonna keep the rambling in the tags ->#i've also kind of been hit with something similar to the ao3 author curse in the time of this challenge#i found it really difficult to keep up sometimes because of all the stuff going on. to name one i got hospitalised. and as a result of#what happened im now working on getting a diagnosis for multiple sclerosis lol#i have a lumbar puncture scheduled soon so i hope that goes well#it's funny looking at some of the days on this blog knowing the context behind them lol. but the fact that i did it anyways makes me feel#kinda proud you know? but i definitely need a break for a minute lmao#ill definitely revisit this blog. if anyone reading this is struggling with creative block i would recommend daily challenges. it helped a#LOT for me. though 100 days might not be for everyone hahah#anyways everyone say good job toast#zelda daily announcement

The more I see your work and the more I see of poorly drawn scum villain, the more I'm tempted to do a poorly drawn tgcf 🥺 (I've only just started listening to it and I absolutely love it!!)
I just don't think I'm as funny as both of you and don't know if I could commit to uploading as regularly as you both do.
But oh! I am SO very tempted!! 😭
Working on an adaption of an existing media as a long form project is honestly my strongest recommendation for getting your creative brain going! Of course, there is still planning and hard work that goes into it, but the biggest creative pressures are much lower (And when anxiety brain is quiet, art brain thrives!)
That said, projects like this are a huge commitment, and I'm a bit of a freak case when it comes to the grind. PD-Scumvillian and I both put a lot of work behind the scenes to make it seem as effortless as it is. I'm wholeheartedly giving you my support should you go through with it; feel free to reach out and ask for tips and tricks!
#ask#I deliberated about sending this privately (as I tend to do with a lot of asks)#But its also a question that has come up a lot - especially since Poorly-Drawn-Scumvillian started.#I think my real recommendation here is 'start with something achievable!'#I could get into why I chose something very long like mdzs another time but the main point was that I fully expected it to be long.#Y'know. Maybe 8-10 months of posting? Yeah. It's been over twice as long and I'm still not done.#Adaptions really are the best though. I love working on adaptions. I think every creative writer and artist should dabble in adaptions.#You get to learn a *lot* from people who made something that you *know* works. And you start to see how it all comes together.#If you do go through with TGCF there is always putting a fun spin on it - like the 'tgcf but I havent seen it' comics by Tempo-takoyaki#Having a format helps a lot and the goal should always be 'this is a reason for me to practice drawing as frequently as possible'#You could take the humour out of it entirely if that takes the pressure off of you!

ok but why are the masochistic patriarchy doms usually nicer than the people who do the uwu wholesome content
Like every “mean” dom with some like sadomasi-whatever name usually ends up being soooooo sweet meanwhile Bambi watched an animal crossing kawaiicore person be suuuper awful to someone on Twitter today
We need like a study or sumn into this (but not from Bambi bc Bambi is done being all smart and stuff for rn)
#dear diary#like I know not all (group)!!! but like 80% of the time the more fucked up someone is the cooler they are#Bambi has actually interacted with a patriarchy super hardkink blog before and the person behind it all totally gave Bambi good advice#like also gave her a good movie recommendation that really helped cheer her up#and um yeah

In goofy David Tennant/Michael Sheen Loud news, my husband stumbled upon an edit with David Tennant and Michael Sheen about how they’re In Love ® and he’s been solidly on the ‘Yeah, they’re prob fuckin’ train because of me & he was like, “I don’t get it, they’re not physically compatible at all, one is really skinny and the other is cherubic—“ and I was like bruh you literally described the one who plays an angel on TV as cherubic 💀 💀 💀 certifyibly Good ™️ casting big rare W to Neil Gaiman
#he’s not even in the fandom he just had a fancam recommended to him & it was almost all staged clips lmaooo#he didn’t believe me at first until i explained to him how aggressively bisexual michael sheen is and the heavily implied poly drama#he isn’t nearly as invested as I am but he’s a full believer now as an *outsider* lmaoko#*lmao (i am not retyping i cannae type on mobile)#also ‘not physically compatible’ made me chuckle like bruh these men are so thirsty#i love people (and celebrities) whomst’ve just cannot help but constantly reveal themselves lmaooo#also he thinks rpf is hysterical & we used to read livejournal beatles rpf in high school on school computers so he really is the one#good omens#bbc staged#ineffable husbands#aziraphale#crowley#david tennant#michael sheen#i must stress he is entirely outside of the fandom and skeptical on all ‘these ppl are fcking’ shit and even he’s like ‘oh okay lol i guess’#incredible#also i don’t want good omens stuff on his computer like was it just listening to us?? help???

mxtxtober day 2: rain
@vampirefaun’s fic Thousand Gold Come-And-Go Stew is the canonical Hua Cheng memory loss extra to me so go read it if you haven’t already! I’ve wanted to make fanart of it for a while, and even did a sketch in August (below the cut) but finally got around to it because of today’s prompt :)
the sketch i made in august ↓. the colors on this were already pretty harmonized so i colormapped them a little bit more to use as a palette for my final drawing.
#i am excited for a translation of the new hua cheng amnesia extra but this fic is excellent!!#to paraphrase the ghost king’s birthday extra:#when it comes to the person you love#you naturally want to give them the best. but you cant help but think that sometimes you’re not good enough#this fic has a similar theme to that extra! ^^#besides the heartbreak its also hilarious and it earns its E rating spectacularly so i highly recommend it#i really enjoyed drawing them as wet rats 😭#they are literally and metaphorically sopping wet in this scene#sometimes youve gotta drop your blorbo into the dunk tank#tgcf#hualian#hua cheng#xie lian#art#tian guan ci fu#mxtx#my art#hob#heaven official's blessing#fic fanart#comic#mxtxtober#mxtxtober2023

The Spell for Unraveling (book 3 of The Buried and the Bound trilogy) has a cover! behold!
i think this is my favorite one yet! i love the stained glass background so much <3 the artist is helen mask, who's done an amazing job on all three covers for this trilogy.
#the buried and the bound#book covers#tbatb#booklr#ya books#illustration#i have not posted this on insta yet it's a tumblr exclusive#well. it's also been on goodreads for a few weeks but shhhh#more info on book 3 to come hopefully soon#if you enjoy this series please consider leaving reviews on amazon and goodreads#recommending it to your friends#requesting it at your library#and pre-ordering once buy links are available (which i'll post here)#those things can help let my publisher know that people are excited about these books#toward the end of a series - unless it's really taken off - it's not uncommon for the publisher to completely give up on promoting it#so word of mouth is the only way it will find new readers

romantically, this girl is on sabbatical. literally can't take any more emotional damage this year lol I've run out of any capacity for nonsense :-) if anyone is interested, they'd have to be willing to wait, because -- and I cannot emphasize this enough -- my heart is so exhausted. SO exhausted.
#in other words i really need to learn to stand up for myself#because i should've said tell your girlfriend to stop updating me on your relationship to no.1#and i should've said no don't put me down as your application reference to no.2 also why do you want me to be your roommate???#and i shouldn't have offered to help job hunt for no.3 or written him a recommendation letter or done all the things for him#this has been a really good lesson in idiocy and my tendency to say yes to suffering when i dont need to suffer#HA! HA! HA!#anyway.
