Ahahahah

I feel like shit

And im 99% sure its because I'm stressed

I always feel sick when im stressed

But the stress always gets worse now when that happens cuz of covid. Which makes me feel more sick.

Awesome 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

#i took a covid test and it was negative #it doesnt help that when i told isabella i was leaving early cuz i had a migraine she was like “hopefully its not covid. thats spiking #again and several people are out right now because of it“#like. great. awesome.#im catastrophizing #i wear a mask at work. i dont get too close to anyone. my desk has a pexiglass shield around it.#im probably fine #but man #im one of like. 3 or 4 people there that wears a mask #and i KNOW these people go out and do a lot of stuff around a lot of people outside of work #cuz theyre always talking about it #the next few months are gonna be ROUGH #i know the point of the movie click was to show that you SHOULDNT fast forward through your life #but fuck man id like to do it just this once #like just let me fast forward til we're moved into the new house #let me skip all the difficult shit #hopefully my period starts in the next couple days so itll be pretty much done by the time we leave for Minnesota #that might also take care of some of my current anxiety #i better not get sick tho #i dont wanna miss work #at work i can just be mad at whoever put a million staples in one document #takes my mind off things #specifically imagining beating this person to death with a stapler #they just put an OBSCENE amount of staples in every document #like worstie this was not at all necessary why have you done this #ahhhhh #just 3 more work days til i leave #1 more day this week and i can sleep in #im sure the sleep deprivation isnt helping

[images ID: three images of a comic titled "one must imagine sisyphus happy" by druid-for-hire. it is a visual narrative beginning with someone with wrist pain (depicted by bright orange nerves) working at a drafting table. the reader is shown the same wrist as the person uses it for many everyday tasks such as carrying a grocery basket, pushing elevator buttons, typing, and doing dishes, until the pain dissolves all the panels into chaos. the person then performs several physical therapy exercises until the pain subsides. they sit back down at a desk with their laptop, sigh, and begin typing. a small spark of pain reappears. end id]

a fun little piece i made during the semester and submitted into our school comic anthology! (which you can buy at the Static Fish table at MoCCAFest in NYC ;] ). it's about artists and injury

#comic art #comics #original comic #chronic pain #carpal tunnel #tendonitis #my art #original #edit: what a delightful surprise to see this take off #this was made for class on very low fuel and very few thoughts and late at night and exhausted #the prompt was just a wordless narrative essay. three pages. and i had nothing and no ideas #and my head hurt and i was too tired to think about doing any of the like. research and mind mapping and ideating i'd do otherwise #but my arm hurt #so i decided to do a thing about arm hurty #i'm surprised to see so many people finding it resonating with them #but then again i shouldn't be. the universal lies in the specific #i should make more things about smaller stuff

Instead of writing a fanfic like a normal person this oneshot turned into two separate, contextless things,

#sorry it’s how my brain works (sometimes can only see things in terms of tv scene-)#tumblr exclusive video fancy…#dcmk #my art #(quietly coughing and spluttering) OK alright I can feel the creative brain explosion slowing down. geez #coughs.#nyways. weird that there hasn’t really been a main case where poison is involved in a certain way #If I watch my own scribbled boards for too long im gonna get too embarrassed to post. Send post #Subarus hair is still infuriating by the way like take that off your normal hair is easier. The beanie is easier #you like Have to have the side corners on this haircut or it doesn’t look right #anyways. shiho ptsd moments I think she kind of gets irritated that shinichi doesn’t react the same so when he does she gets like #weirded out and vindicated and a little protective. Like woah wait. Love that you understand me rn don’t like that you feel bad I am going…#to…………. ssssssssssit here about it…………………………….. uhhhh. do you want. a rubix cube to get your mind off it #I don’t want to talk about my feelings I just want you to get it. you don’t wanna talk about your feelings either which is……………. Hmmmmmm #I like her. love of my life miyano shiho #masumi sera #conan edogawa #ai haibara #akai shuichi #let conan swear. HE SWEARS A LOT BUT LET HIM SWEAR IN ENGLISH I KNOW HE KNOWS THEM #man needs his emotional support akai family they like him #rigorous trials to being approved by the akai matriarch but everyone else likes him already and have already picked him up multiple times #and shuichi would let him swear

machiavelli and biagio (and a third person), hard at work in the office :)

#sometimes you have a really bad month which is turning into TWO bad months and you forget which brushes you like inking with #because you've been too busy trying to tread water. so to speak. like my god. and on top of that. job hunting. augh.#and to finish that off. my ideas notebook that i scribble comic layouts in. ran out of pages. which is honestly at the bottom #of the list of things that are going wrong but it did feel like some kind of cosmic punchline and i'm at my LIMIT #ANYWAY. thoughts about renaissance espionage. they are circling in my mind. its been too long since ive drawn machiavelli #eventually i'm going to figure out how to do this machiavelli-leonardo-biagio comic. the visuals....we're so close to cracking the #code (<< figuring out what florence should look like) (artistically) (save me photographers who take photos of places for comic artists)#italian renaissance tag #drawing tag #there's also a biagio book i want to read also. surprisingly difficult to track down! i remain undeterred tho #compared to some of the things ive been trying to track down for ascanio the biagio book is casual fun

You see this is why our goddess Ishtar Nora hits so hard: she writes myths, not stories, that's why they're so dark and deranged, she writes not for our thin veneer of rational thought but for the beasts lurking in our collective unconscious...

waow 2024 is almost dead!!! gone too soon. feels like it’s been a big year for me art-wise for many reasons, BUT. i’m making 2025 bigger.... hopefully....i’ve made some art goals for next year which i won’t explain in detail but they boil down to 1) do more studies 2) tackle my weaknesses (backgrounds, dynamic poses/angles, uhhh lots of stuff i am a one trick pony right now) 3) get into drawing comics, all of which are in preparation for 4) take my story ideas more seriously and get started on one of the many graphic novels living in my head. i have one in mind i HAVE to complete in my lifetime or i will die, but firstly i’m gonna mess around with some little standalone svanhildr comics perhaps. goat fans rejoice.

anyway i wasn’t meant to ramble so i’ll just say THANK YOU for the support as always!!! i’m very flattered all of these have more than 1000 notes.....crazy. thank you. muah

#tumblrtop10 #my art #looking forward to 2025 i really really REALLY REALLY want to get stuck in with my story ideas.....#my main passion project i'm more and more leaning into not even sharing i cannot lie. it's very personally made for ME to love and enjoy #and i suck at a lot of what i'd need to draw for it (humans interior backgrounds and an art style that's at least a little gritty)#GOD it's been taking over my mind so much i want to gnaw on it but it's in my head #so maybe i'll just do a first draft for me and me alone and when i'm in my 30s and maybe better at those things i can draw it finally #actually one of the characters for that features here hiii mockley!!! coming in at number 2 most popular of 2024 i'm so proud of her #her design's come a long way i'm kind of super happy with her as always <3 i love you my repressed old woman dinosaur #ALSO i'm SOOOOO excited about a character i made recently i can't wait to share her with the world #she's been a LONG time coming....my goirl.....#i will hopefully show her off in the new year #ALSO no one will see this i'm sure but thank you to my commissioners for the patience #i have now finished my break and will continue drawing

Pages from trying to keep a little sketchbook-scrapbook type thing going for two weeks lol. I gave myself specific rules in hopes they might all end up more cohesive/consistent seeming, but alas, scribbly chaos reigns, it seems

#sketchbook #scrapbook #Actually I feel like these are kind of incomprehensible in photo form like.. In person holding the book its easy to look at #but as images on this scale I feel like there's so much tiny little text and small scribles and stuff you'd have to 'right click > open #image in new browser tab > zoom in' just to actually really see the thing. which for 7 images is excessive lol.. so. probably not the best #medium for sharing really but. I suppose I thought they might look cooler lined up next to each other. The whole part of using a #limited color palette is so that maybe they kind of seem to have more consistent color schemes or something throughout. but I dont #know if they look all that 'related' or not. I think these types of challenges I have always sucked at because I am a being of clutter and #excess. I can't just do like one little simple nice looking design and have that Crisp Neat calligraphy with evenhanded perfect lines #and perfect symmetical composition and etc. etc. Like some poeple post very aesthetically clean and cohesive looking sketch #pages or something but I simply cannot hold back the brain impulse to add more. more. more. Fill every single blank space with color #or a little drawing or a sticker or something. I take away 500 things and there are still a million there. Even when I thik I'm being #'simplistic' I'm still usually being 2x more complicated and cluttered than the standard or whatever lol. I guess thats clear from my #outfits/costumes though too. Like whatever that saying is from that person about something like 'before you leave the house take off one #more accessory. you dont need it' for me is like.. 'before you leave the house. add 10 more accessories. and 6 more layers. and another'#AAANyway. I wonder if also maybe some people would try to plan theirs in a way to look good or something or like.. plot things on the page #before placing them. I did sometimes have a theme for a day kind of (like day 10 I ended up finding a few gold and green things and then #was like.. hey... what if I looked for a few other things and only used these colors today') but aside from that I was just slapping down #stickers randomly and working around them to fill the page. Maybe a lot of neat minimalistic asthetic design is about planning and #having a Vision set ahead of time. instead of just complete random whatever. doodling whilst watching youtube videos or eating lunch. It's #a miracle actually I've managed to not spill any food on the book the whole time. anyway.. I do wish the highlighter really showed up. the #scanner kind of makes the colors look VERY different to irl. But also it got much clearer images than just camera pictures of pages. alas..#..Still oddly enjoy the phrase 'Salisbury Steak gently kissed with industrial pollutants'#probably my favorite section of 'gluing random papers and things onto the page' lol #Also I wonder if it's super obvious that I literally never ever use references when I draw (save for the few freakish looking youtube #face sketches) since everyone is always in the same positions and looking very similar ghhb. This could have been a good opportunity to #work on not solely drawing from my mind and try to do more Dynamic Experimental scribbles. NO. Same exact eye for the 90th time #be upon ye. But I guess it was meant to be casual 'daily doodles'. True 'practice' would make it seem too effortful like a full project. hm #(lol the one decimated pencil in the set... never hand me a writing utensil. i will passively destroy it somehow. shaving the sides of a #pencil off with a knife or snapping a pen in half as a nervous fidget without even realizing i've done it. sorry to the drawing implements)

Omg nobody is saying eddie is queer because he had a few bad relationships with women like can we sit here and be honest with ourselves and say that HIS RELATIONSHIPS (excluding marisol bro rlly fucked that one up) WERENT EVEN BAD!! But there have been sooo many reasons over the years to think Eddie is queer? "I don't like dating it feels like performing." Cut to Hen giving him an odd look. "Ive never seen a man turn off a woman with so much skill." "It's a gift." "They weren't my type." Like we could really keep going because the amount of tthings he says that just come off as glaringly queer is abundant. But then we can look to his past AND SEE THINGS THEREEE!!! Eddie didnt marry Shannon out of love but out of duty. Do you know how many queer men get married to women because they feel like its what they should do? Eddie isn't hanging on to Shannon out of love but because she was christophers mother. Everytime he talks about her its NEVER ABOUT HER! He never goes oh she was kind she was soft she was sweet she was literally anything a man would say about a woman they loved and lost. He just says she was Christophers mother. That doesn't sound like a man who truly romantically loved his wife.

Then moving on to Ana. She was quite literally the perfect woman. Like she stood by and helped him after he got shot and they had barely even rlly been dating when that happened. You cannot tell me that him having panic attacks every time he thinks of going any further with her isn't indication of queerness. Dude is struggling to make a family with women but is relaxed and happy making one with a man? QUEERRRRR. But once again this relationship was less about Eddie and more about Christopher. "My son loves her?" "Is that enough?" Like Buck was right it WASNT enough because he didnt even like her enough to introduce her as his gf to ravi (this was truly evil).

And okay maybe ur like "Ana was his first gf after Shannon ofc he was having panic attacks!" But then look at what happened with Marisol.. he tried to go a step further with her then immediately regretted it and asked her to leave right after. He struggles in all of his relationships because he cannot bring himself to feel what he's supposed to feel for them. I also truly believe the Kim thing was partially him self sabotaging his relationship.

I could honestly keep going and talk about the military and toxic masculinity, i could bring up him having to be the "man" of his house, hell i could bring up marisol being a nun. This MAN IS QUEER TO MEEEEEEE

#911 abc #911 fox #eddie diaz #buddie #911 #like even if eddie is queer that does not mean buddie is happening #will yall stop trying to write off every queer thing he jas ever done u sound insane #eddie is definitely intended to be queer there is not a doubt in my fucking mind #also why do u guys want to take this rep away from people SOOOO BADLY UR WEIRD #like im happy u got another white bisexual boy i really am YAY TEAM!!#but wha is u guys problem with queer poc??#like queer EDDIE MEANS SOMETHING TO MEEE SOO BADDD #some of yall never grew up in a poc household as “the man of the house” and it SHOWS!!!
