Sitting down to floss and brush my teeth has been lifechanging. On a completely unrelated note how the fuck am I supposed to have this skeleton for several more decades. It’s all over for me lads 😔

Vaniah woke choking on regrets.

His arms were swathed in bandages, and as soon as he opened his eyes something beeped, maybe an alarm.

"I'm sorry."

A nurse hurried in, her expression unfathomably gentle. He wasn't sure if he was supposed to know her or not, but he didn't particularly care. She checked his wristband and read out numbers, then confirmed his identity verbally.

"Anneka, I'm sorry."

It felt so faraway, so unreal, and yet he could still feel it like it was happening all over again. He moved one arm slightly, and winced at the pain that lanced down it. The nurse asked if he wanted pain relief; he nodded wordlessly, and crushed the thought that he didn't want that at all.

"It's too late."

He regretted everything. Regretted trying, regretted even more failing - regretted Anneka seeing him like that. He looked down at the bandages and wondered what the mess was like underneath.

"You shouldn't have come back."

Definitely a mess, nothing good: he had done enough research to recognise what he had done in the moment, and though some of the result would only become apparent as more time went by, and he began to heal - well, it wasn't going to be good.

"God be thanked that I did!"

What must she think of him? Much of his memory was cloudy with blood loss, and he had been drowsy and barely conscious even when she found him. Some memories, though, lingered even if he might have preferred to forget them.

"Don't touch me."

He probably would never forget them, unless - well, not good to dwell on that for now. Wasn't once enough? Maybe he'd ruined the last good thing in his cursed life. He wouldn't be surprised if Anneka never wanted to see him again.

"I will, damn it!"

What was the point of living on? Wouldn't it be easier for everyone if he had succeeded? Vaniah closed his eyes, as if to shield himself from the real world, the reality he had created, even for a moment.

"God knows I need you. Don't die, not like this."

He took a deep breath, and opened his eyes as the nurse returned bearing medication: and made a promise inwardly that he could not bear to speak of for many, many moons thereafter:

No matter the hell he had to endure, and no matter the pain he still willingly inflicted on himself, he would never again try to end his life.

"God help us. God help us all."

Ok the LotLDTIYS drawing is FINALLY ready! I’m following my release schedule for YouTube and posting the speedpaint Friday afternoon, so expect the official announcement here around the same time!

Also quick PSA: if you’re an artist, STRETCH YOUR WRISTS AND TAKE BREAKS. If you use a keyboard/mouse all day, GET THE GOOD SHIT. I now use the wavy keyboard with the wrist rests and a vertical mouse but I didn’t switch soon enough. Tendonitis is a BITCH and a half (and Carpal tunnel is apparently WORSE). Do not suffer the same fate as me.

The LotLDTIYS sketch was done like 3 weeks ago and it was supposed to be finished/posted 2 weeks ago, but I was unable to draw until this past weekend cause my wrists felt like garbage. Learn from my suffering.

So I hope you’re all as excited as I am! See you Friday!

was watching this behind the scenes video about this fancy butter business, and they talk about how they rotate people between the various workstations during the day both avoid boredom but also to (hopefully) prevent RSI. literally why is this not the fucking standard in most jobs. Get your office workers on the floor to avoid desk injuries, let packers run phone support midshift to avoid strain/exhaustion, give your customer facing workers a break by letting them break down boxes for a while (personal fave).

this just in: i refuse to let my injured wrist stop me from doing shit so i'm making a white patch based on my pathetic beast of a cat

[binch-i-might-be]

I've never noticed this but the wrist brace I bought a while ago for when my Wrist Hurts like right now is the exact same shade of pink as my earbuds. I'm like some kind of obscure barbie set

[lactose-intolerant-egg]

[planet4546b]

[arcadian-vampire]

Shoutout to my joints that are so fucked up, I really need to talk to a doctor abt them, but they're so fucked up that I'm scared to <3 if my dainty lil nine-poud cat makes me shriek in pain when she briefly steps on my hip, how the Fuck am I gonna handle a doctor poking and prodding at it. I'll die.

Our jury trial for this week fell and gods, I'm so relieved.

I did contact my supervisor like "hey can I maybe have some help out here? my judge and clerk were kinda worried when I took the record for the entire last jury trial" and apparently those (plus copying my judge and clerk) were the magic words to break the radio silence.

Now I can catch up on work and come home with the energy to read/write/pet Athena.

This also means that I can finish up/post the next chapter of Measurements, which I'm excited about because it's the last bit of calm before the storm.
