SMALL PSA:

i'm going mostly blind into veilguard and probably won't finish it very soon, so i'd really appreciate any spoilers to be tagged for at least a couple months. if i post any spoilers early on they will be on a readmore and tagged d.a4 spoilers (w/out the period), and i'll make a note of when i start posting hcs/threads etc (and still tag them for as long as it seems reasonable).

i've started queuing my replies to keep myself from getting overwhelmed and hopefully have some time to do meme replies as well because i haven't been doing those in ages. this is both in case my activity drops after thursday but also to keep activity more even on weeks when i work more, so it's possibly a permanent thing. atm the queue is set to post once a day but i'll likely set it to higher in a bit. the plan for now is to post meme replies as i finish them so not everything is on queue and then see how it works out.

Might be a little radio silent today and tomorrow, but I'll be back soon. Gonna run off a queue & pop in and out. 💜

Dysprosium, Mary Soon Lee

dysprosium, AN 66, is a silvery-white rare earth metal. its name is derived from the greek dysprositos, meaning “hard to get at”, owing to the difficulty in separating and isolating this rare earth element. dysprosium is used to measure neutron flux, to fuel reactors, and to activate phosphors. terfenol-d is a magnetorestrictive alloy, meaning that it changes shape when a magnetic field is applied, and is used to manufacture underwater acoustic systems.

wild that Ghibli just got brought up bc i literally opened up Tumblr to tell you if there was ever an animated version of any of the fae tales i think it'd be best conveyed in a Ghibli like style!

Omg this so nice anon

ngl when I fantasise sometimes about Fae Tales ever getting picked up and made into anything else, I always imagine anime first (though not Ghibli perhaps because I just associate that so much with feature films and my stuff so much with the TV / serialised format. Ronja doesn't count).

But honestly that's so incredibly flattering anon, oh my god. I think I also daren't imagine that stuff in the Ghibli style because like x.x It's Ghibli *sobs into hands* They are top tier

redownloaded an old art program

they’re expecting!

Ok I’m glad I found the actual ask box instead of the EMBARASSING thing I did earlier, aside from that

How long does it usually take you to make a drawing? :3 I know it’s different depending on the caliber of the drawing but for an example let’s say just Barnaby and Wally doing whatever in a scene

I’m very curious about your process!! ^w^

i just saw what you mean and for your sake i'll Pretend I Did Not See lol. its ok tho it happens, Tumblr's a tough cookie to wrangle

hm. it Does vary wildly, both depending on quality, how used to scribbling a thing i am, and how well the art-mojo is flowing! on a bad night, a simple sketch could take an hour while the same sketch on a good night could take 15 minutes

and it's also hard to say since i don't really keep track! for example, The First One in this collage is a more involved sketch and i suspect it took thirty minutes maybe? i remember having some Difficulties so maybe longer? trying to get size differences between multiple characters in the same sketch adds a Lot of time, as does making sure they interact properly. while the last one in the collage (the Nom) probably took closer to ten minutes

i know the Laughingstock in Aziracrow's outfits i belted out in, oh... an hour or three? it's really hard to say! i think it was several bc i was watching gomens at the time, and i think it got through a couple of episodes... clothes add a lot of time! but certain things that i thought i did Quickly took hours in reality, and i only notice when i look up and see the clock has Changed Drastically! i have a very loose perception of time!

it really just depends on my motivation & how used to drawing something i am. like scribbling Eddie takes a while, lots of guidelines and erasing and redrawing. but scribbling Barnaby? easy. takes me seconds in comparison. way less guidelines - i know where everything is and where it goes! drawing dragons takes even less time - This One was done in a Blink, and the only guides i used were head circle / snout circle / jawline.

Nagata Kabi's work is so meaningful to me. Even people I liked and trusted, who I had confided in that I struggled for years with suicidal ideation, couldn't understand how I've never dated. Like not having kissed someone by the time you're in your twenties is SUCH a big deal not even spending years wanting and attempting to end your own life explains it.

Anyway, I just really appreciate Nagata Kabi for putting her story out there.

Week 19.4/52: May 8th - May 14th 2023 | Sukiyaki Dinner  😋

Two days of me running on 5 hours of sleep... all this pain just for super boring convo training... >_> but at least I went out to eat with bf, Jesslyn, and Sunny after our shift. Went to Kumo Sukiyaki for AYCE silver level which included beef & pork belly & vegetables & appetizers. Pretty yum but definitely didn’t have enough time to eat everything because they chased us out after one hour LOOOOL so sad. I was like 95% full but not bloated like I usually am after ayce but maybe that’s for the best (healthier). We went to Minoru Chapel park to chat some more because Kumo had no chill LOOOL literally never ending talking with these kiddos =_= but the weather was so nice and Minoru was so pretty. Went home and packed for Calgary... I am bringing so much food this time HAHAHAHA. No going hungry during convo season!!! Not on my watch!!!

Okay, I'm gonna try answer some more asks tonight, but I have a question for you all. Tomorrow is my last day before the dose of my meds goes up and I presumably descend into the madness that was the first several days of this once more. With this in mind, I'm probably gonna be too busy chatting for like 12 hours straight to people and not giving a shit about anything to do much. So! My question to you!

What would you guys prefer is what I'm asking. A filled queue of stuff or work on a fic you may not even see for a while? This may not actually influence what I end up doing, but I thought I'd ask since I'm curious if anyone has an opinion on it
