The way you draw Felix is making me kick my feet and giggle. He's such a failboy (affectionate)

He is literally just! A Guy!! (the silly little man) (the failboy) (the loser <3) (resting bitch face)

i have no clue what this feeling is but i've been feeling it for like the past day or two and it doesn't feel great

do you guys ever have to deal with the sort of thing where you make things, you enjoy making things, and then all of a sudden you can't think of anymore ideas and because of that you feel sort of useless because that's kinda all you did, so now you're just sitting around doing nothing because you're not sure what to do with yourself because the one thing you love doing you can't do

is that what burnout is? i have no idea, but if it is, i hate it

So far Shark has not been supplanted as the Favorite™ though perhaps Eagle 2 will change things.

Remembering that time my dad, who is very academically inclined and extremely well read, was schooling me about a mental disorder where someone thinks the people around them have been replaced with imposters, but he couldn't remember the name. I immediately said, "Oh yeah, Capgras Syndrome."

He looked at me with a mixture of awe and confusion, and asked me how the hell I knew that off the top of my head. I got to explain that I learned it from an anime. He didn't believe me, so I pulled up the clip and showed him.

My exercise/sport anxiety is so strong that just watching video tutorials makes me cry uncontrollably so that's... fun...

This sounds a bit sad, but I'm someone who used to have absolutely zero faith in my artistic abilities. I've been writing my entire life, and haven't had too many self-confidence issues with that (well, I've gotten down on myself about my writing before, but I've gotten a lot better about that). I've always known I have the ability to write, as I've been doing it almost my entire life.

But drawing was a different story. I used to always tell myself "Ha! I just need to stick to writing. I'll never be able to draw. Are you kidding? Look at all of these talented artists. And look at these gorgeous realistic anatomy they can do!! I'll never be able to do that. I have no artistic ability whatsoever. It's just not my thing."

That was really my first mistake, comparing myself to other artists, and judging my ability to draw before I even tried. But another thing that really lowered my confidence in my artistic abilities was this one moment in my English class my Sophomore year of high school. We had this assignment to make a short comic based on the story The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allen Poe. I'm sure everyone knows that story. I did mine, and forgot to sign it at first, and my teacher saw. He was always a harsh grader, but he held up my paper, not knowing it was mine, and called it Kindergarten work. In front of the entire class. Needless to say, I was mortified. I immediately redid the assignment, losing almost all of my faith in my own artistic abilities.

But something changed when the Pandemic hit. I got an iPad, which made digital drawing so much easier and more fun. And I just had a lot of time on my hands because of lockdowns. And I thought to myself: Huh. Well, maybe I don't have to draw realistically. Maybe I can practice my drawing skills more by drawing more cartoony art.

And that's exactly what I did. And now I'm proud to say I'm actually confident in my art now!! I sort of have my own style now, which has definitely evolved over the years. I guess that's just what can happen when you practice and try to push aside the self-doubt festering in the back of your mind. It wasn't always easy, but I kept trying to encourage myself instead of just putting myself down.

Now I can proudly say that I've gotten paid for my art, and my clients were all thrilled with the results so far. And I can't wait to keep drawing for people and making them happy. I think I've definitely come a long way from so-called "Kindergarten work".

tragic news: local woman already deeply in love with d&d character she hasn’t even gotten to play yet in a campaign that is very likely to fizzle out due to scheduling conflicts

I hate when I see people hating on the gods because of PJO, it makes me so sad and angry

Also. The amount of people calling the female gods "a bitch" is insufferable. First of all, lazy insult, second of all, these characters are fucking ancient. They have years of history in them. You can't just think of their character as "a bitch". NOT EVEN THE BITCH, JUST A BITCH — AS IN, AN INSULT
