Love putting these guys in situations! Thanks @kittynugg for the ideas especially this masterpiece:

[so-i-did-this-thing]

I didn't want to distract from your name post by putting my cis name change story there, but when I got divorced I kept his last name out of mild spite, but when I went back to school a couple years later I spontaneously started introducing myself to people with my middle name Kathryn (Kate usually) instead of my first name Ann. Ann and Annie were both associated with a difficult period in my life and I didn't feel like they fit the person I'd become.

When I finally got around to changing my last name, I changed ALL the names at once, became Kathryn Ann legally as well as socially, and hyphenated my mom's maiden name and my dad's name. It was a tricky change since I needed more paperwork for a lot of places to update my name, and having a hyphenated last name is more complicated than I expected since some systems won't accept hyphens, but it was so worth it. There was absolutely some identity euphoria when I finally found MY name.

Anyway thank you for sharing your name lore!

And thank you for sharing! There are so many reasons why people don't want to go by their birth names. Off-hand, some of the people in my life:

Southern cis man, goes by his nickname, "Buddy". Mayor of Orlando.

My mother. Goes by "Jay", a man's name, but was her initials before marriage. Extremely femme woman.

A cis woman friend who one day just told everyone she was changing her first name because it no longer suited her.

My grandmother, Evelyn (her middle name). When she moved into assisted living, spontaneously decided to go by her first name, Katherine and was super giddy about it.

One of my oldest friends, Huned. Decided to stop Anglicanizing his first name, no longer wanted to be, "Ned".

First name changes are more common than folks seem to think, and yeah, it can be a pain in the ass, but so can the emotional burden of being called something you hate.

This makes me think of how some people write about immortality and the inherent tragedy and monotony of it. And sure, sometimes history is cyclical, but seeing the chaos unfold and the world develop seems interesting.

Sometimes in the monotony and hell of the day to day we lose ourselves. And we forget the world isn’t all horrible. It’s wonderful in a bunch of little ways. Little ways like hanging clothes in the sun on a clothes line. Little ways like the wonder of seeing a hummingbird or butterfly for the first time in a while. Little ways like the quiet patter of rain outside the window or the shapes that clouds seem to make on a perfectly cloudy day. Little ways like witnessing the last rays of dusk and the first rays of dawn.

A situation can be awful. Society can be awful. But the world can be the best place to live when you take the time to look at it.

truly some people have no genre savviness whatsoever. A girl came back from the dead the other day and fresh out of the grave she laughed and laughed and lay down on the grass nearby to watch the sky, dirt still under her nails. I asked her if she’s sad about anything and she asked me why she should be. I asked her if she’s perhaps worried she’s a shadow of who she used to be and she said that if she is a shadow she is a joyous one, and anyway whoever she was she is her, now, and that’s enough. I inquired about revenge, about unfinished business, about what had filled her with the incessant need to claw her way out from beneath but she just said she’s here to live. I told her about ghosts, about zombies, tried to explain to her how her options lie between horror and tragedy but she just said if those are the stories meant for her then she’ll make another one. I said “isn’t it terribly lonely how in your triumph over death nobody was here to greet you?” and she just looked at me funny and said “what do you mean? The whole world was here, waiting”. Some people, I tell you.

I feel like logically I know all this but it's always good and needed to have something like this to look at.

You probably get asked this a lot, but how do you draw hands? Even when I'm tracing, they look so weird 🙃

I could probably go on and on and on about hands, but here are some key points I compiled! I LOVE drawing hands, and I never hesitate to use my own as a reference

[p3achj3llyf1sh]

heya! Heres some rough sketches ive blocked out for a fancomic I may post.

would you guys read it? it would be the goo AU ive posted a couple times.

(keep in mind, i only have a few pages sketched, this would take a very long time to finish)

I’ve changed a lot of the story for it, def a slowburn, more action then romance

it would be called “Bound by Blood” instead of the “sonadow goo au”

I wouldn’t post much aside from some doodles and maybe an update once in a while, thoughts?

And a panel i sketched

[frycekseuthanasia]

this is what is going on in the story, right?

This is just a goose with more functionality, i see nothing wrong here.

Everyone meet just a normal goose :)

jim armor test (alt versions and minor yap below)

just spent waaaay too long on this cause i was trying to work out the issues with my armor design for the au but at least it worked! there were some spots i needed to add or change the designs i originally had because they didnt make sense- most notably on his calves. his armor has a LOT of references to his friends so if you feel like going through and trying to pick them out just from this feel free, it will entertain me.

look at himmmmm im gonna shake him like a chew toy

Official hater post

i get that it is recreationally fun to whine and hate. i support all whiners and haters and i agree nintendo should be bankrupted and have to sell all its games for negative ninety dollars. but if new mario games are $80 i just think its really easy to not buy new mario games. like when peoplare like "games are 1 squillion dollars" im like okay maybe for you if you want to buy the new zelda or cod the day of release. for Me, video games are like $15. sometimes $0

Silly cotl thing I never finished because the hyper fixation decided to take a nap honk shoo mimimimi
