I don't think Ectype wants them to have a child, she has mentioned that it feels weird since chai is a sona so she got rid of him

so sorry, but out of respect for Ectype I won't be drawing Ollae anymore :p

hi guys!

just wanted to pop in and say that everything is okay with teddy! thankyou to everyone who sent well wishes, i love and appreciate you guys so very much <333

as for me, i’m still coming down from the stress from the past couple of days. i’m not going to lie, i spiraled into a negative headspace to things unrelated to what happened to teddy. i don’t really know why i did, but i’m trying my best to cheer up n be my usual bubbly self!!

so please bear with me guys! i will be here, just maybe a little quieter for a bit :)

much love,

Lily xo

(p.s: here’s a little pic of teddy :3 )

Lorch opened her big stupid mouth again and decided to lean into "addicts are all awful and deserve to die" territory. How adorable.

My father functionally drank himself to death after he finally drove us away for good with his constant rage sessions, bouts of anger, stalking, suicide baiting and threatening us with guns, and all of this after a period of hightened emotional and verbal abuse we were subjected to after the death of my grandmother which lead him to self-medicate even harder than he already did throughout my whole life. I get really pissed at the idea that drugs, ANY drug or substance, can "save" you. It can't. You have to save you and self-medication can kill and does kill. It ruined my life because it ruined my dad's life and it ruined his immune system to where he died of bronchitis. I know from watching my dad's brother, my uncle, who did do HARD drugs and had the same issues as my dad, that hard drugs are easy to get into after you keep clearing hurtles to escape pain/feel higher, and then DANGEROUSLY hard to escape from. No Lily I didn't need Requiem for a Dream and Trainspotting to tell me that though I've heard from people that both those movies are disturbingly accurate about heroine, which is horrifying. No one should go through what happens in those stories and they sure as hell shouldn't be blamed/shamed/treated like 'filth' for being in that position at all.

The thing is, people are responsible for themselves. Not taking prescriptions right is bad. ALWAYS talk with a psychiatrist they are literally there to hear how you're doing on your drugs; never drink/smoke/toke and drive or handle machinery. It is absolutely not worth it get your friend or family to do it PLEASE even if they're annoying (at best) and chast you for that. If there's any way in which weed can directly kill you -Lily- it's through this. Wait till you're home; I'm not telling you this crap because I'm your mom, stranger on the internet reading this. I'm telling you this as a person with my own vices who lives around other people with their own vices; take care of yourself as best you can. You can do better, but you can never be perfect and that's okay. Don't abstain from stuff you can't quit but please be responsible. And godspeed to people dealing with addictions to hard drugs. I wish you the best - you can do it and as impossible as it may seem you will find the things you need in life to escape your pain without your addiction. I wish...so much that vibes and prayers and good thoughts could do more for you; especially the people dealing with drugs and homelessness right now which is SO MANY in my county alone. My government is screwing you over. You deserve to live and you ought to have your story told no matter what.

Anyway fuck you six ways to sunday Lily Orchard in the name of HUMANITY. You miserable, awful woman- wishing death and eugenic talk onto addicts for the crime of being an addict. You're the kind of person who doesn't just get uncomfortable+scoot away at a clearly tripping person on the bus, you actively say vile things abt them under your breath and scream at them if they even come near you. You have no empathy. I pray to god you never come across a homeless person. You must think the same backward garbage about them too.

Also speaking of vices and lecturing people on them, I find all this rich coming from the woman who wrote incest-laden cp left and right in her heyday, blames other people for it and very likely has accounts full of visual cp under your sockpuppets. I don't drink, smoke or take heavy drugs myself, Lily. But, just looking at what your good old friend Tara (who is not Sai. We both know this I don't even like Sai and I know it's not Sai) has hidden on the web I kind of want to now just to get those images outta my mind. "Quit at anytime/just NOT do the dangerous this" clearly doesn't apply to you. Predator.

I think I might have had a bit of a revalation this fine morning.

Last night, @horizonproblems and I attended this truly amazing talk in a public lecture series on Star Trek that my uni is hosting this term. (It was all about the Third Age of Star Trek and some very valid, nuanced perspectives on hope and optimism and writing utopias under neoliberal capitalism and it was just... amazing. But that's not the point right now XD)

Afterwards, we chatted with the presenter about "Trekademia" (I love that concept so much!). I mentioned I'd seen the call for papers/talks for this lecture series that went out over a year ago (I was working for the English dept. at the time), but I never applied, because the only remotely Trekademic writing I'd ever done was my in-universe essay on holo-sentience and holographic food "The Cake is a Lie". And he asked me to send him a link, even though I never managed to finish writing and it's essentially missing the most interesting section.

But I took the opportunity to reread what I have posted and then look through my WIPs and I realized something: One of the reasons I think I was never able to finish writing the findings section of this "paper" is because I had So Many Ideas that I wanted to weave in. So many little moments with the holos, so many character facets and worldbuilding snippets. And it doesn't work with the extremely academic tone I'm going for.

And after sleeping on it, it occurred to me: I can still post all the outtakes that don't make it into the actual paper! I can keep the tone and focus of that essay and cut out any extraneous bits that don't work in that fram -- and then post a separate work that's like... the researchers field notes or something, where I put aaaalll the little details that didn't make the cut of the official writing!

It will be in bullet points and disconnected and self-indulgent as all heck -- but I'm sure there will be at least a handful of people out there apart from me who would still enjoy that particular take on various holo-headcanons. And even if I'd only be writing it for me, that would still be allowed!

So, no promises that anything might happen, but I just wanted to put it out there as a reminder to myself, if nothing else. Being deeply attached to your ideas and self-indulgent bits of writing is allowed! And even if you need to cut them from the concrete story you're trying to tell because they hurt the pacing or structure or tone, that doesn't mean you have to completely abandon them. There are always ways to share your outtakes and additional notes, on AO3 or tumblr or Discord or whatever, and you're always allowed to share them. Even if nobody but yourself will get a kick out of them, you're still allowed!

(And chances are, somebody else will be interested in reading your rambling thoughts and delighted to find them, actually.)

lecturer started talking about how everyone has a favourite animal and people who don't are probably seen as weird and it's more common than having a favourite geographical feature and i was sat there like. you don't know me. i don't have a favourite animal but i DO have a favourite hill. fuck you aaron.

hello! i was wondering, what app did you use to animate that animation you did? (the one that went like okok lala)

hey hey! I used flipaclip and capcut, flipaclip to animate everything (with audio so it's synced when I put it into another app) then put the clip(s) into capcut and edited everything to how I wanted it

dol ocs and how they view sex cuz im boredddd (i should be sleeping goddamn)

💦 -> enjoys it, but doesnt crave it. casual, no commitment, slips away in the morning like sand water through your fingers

🌙 -> unintentional voyeur to a lot of the towns misdeeds. doesnt really care tho, only has the spoons to keep 💦 safe. no desire

🔥 -> fights to have control. easily aroused and hates it. thinks he would be happy with someone to push around in a sadistic way, and shrivels up at the mention of 'love' and anything fluffy [put off by kylar because of this]

☀️ -> 🔥 wants her to stay innocent but she already knows everything that goes on, more than him. unintentional voyeur 2 whoops. tho unlike 🌙, she sees more than the towns darkness, so she stays hopeful

🌪 -> sacred. like the great hawk, only wants to find one mate. very insecure tho and does not actually believe she will

🪨 -> views it as an act of nature... much like eating or drinking. or pissing

🦋 -> very typical. likes it in general. likes it more when its with someone she has feelings for. but she doesnt want to stay with just one person. closer to the source of the pink flowers than she realises [my own made up au for now idk what vrel has planned]
