I think the closest thing to being indestructible is to be adaptable, but not to pride yourself on being invincible, because you still deserve to be a human with sensitivity and boundaries.

The Intricate Spider-Man - The Blank Period

Finally, I drew Spider-Man again after my hectic days. It's so refreshing because I could narrate myself into the character as if I am Spider-Man himself, that's the reason why I gave the character its own title. Why I gave the "Blank Period" title because I feel that way. Maybe if I add the summary, it will be like this:

“Peter Parker, who is an adult now, found himself in a blank period where he senses that his surroundings are just like a black-and-white world: so quiet but quite depressing. In that peaceful but strange era, his spider-sense is going dull, and he never knows what happened until he finds out himself by once again becoming Spider-Man.”

“Many of us who embark on a self-creation journey find ourselves stuck between two worlds: the survivalist, armored world we come from, and the authentic, inclusive world we long for. In other words, we find ourselves caught between a rock and a ‘heart place’. Getting to the other side is no easy task, but there are 3 things that can help you to stay the course: (1) Finding a soulpod of supportive individuals who are traversing the same terrain; (2) Learning to distinguish between conscious armoring (armoring only when necessary), and unconscious armoring (armoring as a patterned response) as a way of being; (3) Excavating and actualizing your sacred purpose. When you embody your truest purpose, it becomes a buffer against the madness of the world. No longer ruled by fear and tempted by substitute gratifications, you live a truly authentic life. Your purpose becomes a soul-fulfilling prophecy that reminds you, in every moment, that you have finally made it home.”

There's a version of the "don't go grocery shopping while hungry" rule specifically for writers where you should never under any circumstances be allowed to touch your draft within 3 hours of reading a really good story. Because sometimes when you read something great your head goes "fuck this is so much better than my stuff I should make that more like THIS instead!" Look at me. That's the devil talking and you should close the document NOW.

Create Yourself T-Shirt

the phrase "create yourself" can serve as a reminder and a motivator for you to take control of your life and shape your own identity. The design can be seen as a statement of empowerment and self-determination, encouraging you to pursue your dreams and make your own choices.

What a beautiful story! Too bad his King didn't hear all of it...

My first art for @moshangevents Moshang DUALXDUAL Event! With @armyoftoads prompt of Mobei Jun being unable to sleep, prompting Shang Qinghua to tell his beloved a magnificent story that he most definitely just made up! (Definitely not real and all about himself)

As cameras becomes more normalized (Sarah Bernhardt encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use cameras because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by manufacturing companies. I paint not because I want a painting but because I love the process of painting. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

if i have to explain to you that using a camera to take a picture is not the same as using generative ai to generate an image then you are a fucking moron.

Shame

this is a rather personal piece; it's primarily based on my own struggles

It probably could've been executed better (like having more of the interaction she's agonizing over), but I really wanted to focus on that visceral reaction of shame, guilt, and self-criticism

here's a long ramble I wrote while starting this ...

I realize, perhaps much of the reason certain depictions of moon trigger me so much is due to my own overwhelming shame and guilt. It's a defense mechanism crafted because I yet lack the strength to accept myself. I suppose that's why characters like Five Pebbles are so appealing to me — he is someone I've given the room to express his faults, his flaws, his hatred, his despair, his pain, and all his imperfections... For him to be mean or angry is natural and expected, so it's not as scary to express my negative feelings with him as the instrument. He's not a "good person", after all, so it's fine if he is "bad." His standards aren't as high.

Conversely, because I idealize LTTM so much and connect her to myself, I deny her the same things I deny myself. I do it without even thinking, really...

I've often thought, "but this sort of emotion doesn't really suit her... isn't this sort of projection too self-indulgent? If I made this, it'd be too obvious that my own emotions are bleeding through onto the canvas..."

So, I wonder if she's experienced that same sort of emotional repression. It'd be cathartic, in an unfortunate way. To see someone else struggle to grapple with such things, because they want to be pure and virtuous and not upset others...

It's harder when you spend so much time shaping that perfect, faultless, virtuous sort of image, especially when you do it reflexively. Unconsciously. You're making the pressure for yourself worse, but you can't stop... I'm actually not a very friendly person. I'm actually quite afraid and irritable, and I push people away when they get too close. I don't want to hurt anyone, and I don't want anyone to hate me... I don't want to cause suffering or strife. Sometimes, I wish I could just be a completely passive observer.

But I suppose I'm a human being instead, so I have to accept that. Thanks for reading, I guess. I'm not really looking for emotional support here... I just want to be understood.

No more settling for the mundane. Give me moments that breathe life into the extraordinary. I want fantasy. I want blood.
