hi guys i need some cash

hi everyone (laying flat on the ground) i have to move to a Fairly expensive place for my work and application fees are high + i unexpectedly had to pay for a car fix and insurance fuckup (to the tune of $450 altogether.)

if you like my stuff or ever laughed at my silly audio edits or whatever and you wanna support me, i would really appreciate a couple bucks. i know everyone is kinda strapped for cash and there are many other things to throw your money at but any help would be appreciated.

or if you wanna commission me for art or music or writing or editing you can DM me or email at requinamour@gmail.com

i have been bouncing around the idea of doing a fandub of be kind my neighbor which would also necessitate actually figuring out what wegg's songs sound like so this is... kind of a demo? for what this song sounded like to me

i definitely want to lean a little more seventies with the other songs while i'm trying to put chords onto them, but the phrase here just had a specific sound to me already so i ended up writing the rest of the melody around it. but i actually need to settle on what the fingerpicking pattern is haha

i hate experiencing gender dysphoria!!! i hate being born into a body that is incapable of being perceived the way that i want to be perceived no matter what i do. i am kind to my body and happy that it can do the things i need it to do but i wish that everyone who looked at me wasn't instantly primed to assume so much about me based on how i look, regardless of how i dress or if i'm on hormones or if i practice walking a certain way or whatever. it's actually maddening!!!!!!!!

[mintakablue]

i'm always like mildly sad that i am Not So Great at the art mediums people like to engage with the most. my heart is always in audio/podcast and writing and people just do not care about that as much as like webcomics and animation... but idk i am not very good at sequential art but i feel like i'm pretty good at what i do. but then it's like. well shrug nobody engages with that or pays it any attention.

[mintakablue]

it's still crazy to me that the emo trinity mashup audio post that i made still gets comments of people being like "this stupid fucking bitch who made this mashup has no musical creativity or effort and literally could never make music that sounds good"

like. hi first of all you're literally commenting on my post and i can see when you say mean things to me. second of all that's not a nice thing to say on what's clearly a joke post. third of all could a bitch with no effort audiobash patrick stump saying the dialogue in that post

[mintakablue]

motherfucker i NEED a job can someone hire me already

[mintakablue]

happy birthday to me and to the caesar salad

at a flea market recently i saw a beanie baby i used to own and was extremely fond of. even though it was only $1 to take it home, i felt purchasing it would have felt like replacing its memory. i don't know exactly what this says about me but waving goodbye to it still felt pleasant, like we'd seen each other, asked about how our lives had been, and parted ways, still as dear old friends.

[mintakablue]

i really need to behave like my ocs are famous already because THEY’RE LITERALLY IN PUBLISHED WOORRRKKKS please go listen to under the electric stars and the sound of your name and worth weight in gold and other apn things. i need to talk about my ocs so bad

[mintakablue]

"can't cry on t" FALSE at least for me i squeeze out tears literally any time any place i cry about anything and everything. crybaby testosterone takers rise

actually i'm gonna go ahead and say it. i'm surprised at how happy i can be walking down the street with someone when it's cold but sunny outside, and we make a joke that makes us both laugh so hard we start doubling over and having to hold onto each other to keep balance. life has felt weird and uncertain and it continues to but that moment made me so wildly glad to be alive

[mintakablue]

whenever i dont see you for a bit im happy to see that shark avatar again <3

although confession: all this time i thought your name was closer to 'minkatable' or something, got letters jumbled around...

where does it come from

aw this is so sweet! i feel really flattered that you like seeing my blogging habits.

my username is mintaka blue! some people have thought of it as mint aka blue, but mint is green, not blue. just a point to make.

mintaka is the third star (if you read from left to right haha) of orion's belt, which is the constellation my siblings and i really love since there's three of us! it's actually really surprising to me that so many people latched onto orion as a constellation, i always thought of it as me and my siblings.

blue of course is just my favorite color, as it is statistically for lots of people. put those together and that's my username!

(random piece of eli lore, i'm planning on getting an orion tattoo on my spine later this year from my sibling! they are a tattoo artist)

head in my fucking hands i am so desperately infatuated with this fucking guy. jesus christ

generally quite pleasantly surprised at how my mom makes an effort to understand and accept me being queer. after many years of back and forth re: pronouns she actively corrected herself and my dad during prayer. also mentioned offhand that i was trying polyamory and she went "that life isn't for me but i think if it helps you find happiness, that's what's important!"
