Apologies for the lack of updates, I’m currently moving house and it’s very hectic with all the packing and cleaning and organising.
Hopefully I’ll be settled in fast, and my new place has less venomous spiders than my current one. Gotta love being Australian, yeah?

I got lovebrush chronicles because I'm legally required to play every gacha game ever and I'ma say, I'm pleasantly surprised. I could see this taking over my life and I'm barely joking.
The plot is kinda odd, but interesting. I'm eternally thankful that the "guardian who isn't related to the MC" isn't a romance target.
None of the characters are all that annoying, though some are getting very close in the alt world. I'm really hoping it's not a constant.
Ayn best boy, goodbye.
#lovebrush chronicles#my need to play all the gachas actually had a seemingly positive outcome#which is always nice#now we wait for reverse 1999

even if I think the curtains are just blue several months down the line I’ll realise that I was actually processing a profound grief over something or other
Nothing will dispell the "the curtains were just blue" myth faster than writing something yourself, because the amount of pretentious symbolism i am putting in my silly little fanfics is ridiculous. I mean SO much with these words, literally every single one of them. This fic has twenty five typos and zero correct uses of punctuation but if there's curtains you bet your ass I put thought into what colour they were.

Praise Watercolour✨✨
I just finished up a page in my new sketchbook, and I'm proud to say it's the first colourful page!! I'm waiting for it to dry properly before I post it, but boy am I happy!!! Watercolour just has something so ✨special✨ about it. My acrylic paints are wonderful too, but watercolour is so quick and easy. Putting it down on paper feels so effortless. Not that I don't take my time and fret over bled out sections, but I still find it much easier compared to acrylic. It also helps that I have some really wonderful watercolours, I have NO idea where they're from as I just recently found them in an old box of children's art supplies in a dusty box (and they're unlabelled). Still. Just had to praise the ✨wonder✨ of watercolour. Love them so so so so so much. Yippie!!
#seriously though#I LOVE watercolour#and I'm pretty okay at it#which is always nice#I stopped making digital art and this is a quick and easy way to add colour#I should pick digital art up again though#it just feels weird because of the lack of texture#art#art rants#yapping#just yappin#watercolour#artist#artist memes

I don't believe in gender as this... Immutable Thing. I'd call myself gender critical, except I discovered at some point that it doesn't mean what it ought to mean. (it ought to mean a recognition that gender is artificial and a free-for-all, *grumble*)
But there are certain markers of gender. Certain things. Certain small, can't-put-my-finger-on-it things of gender that we learn from others. What is a woman? Oh, such and such. What is a man? Oh, such and such. Associations. An entire unspoken vocabulary we no longer need to interpret consciously, because we're so used to it we do it automatically.
We learn how to people from other people, and we might emulate things we believe are sensible, things we feel are right for us. Things that make sense to us. Sometimes we do it on purpose. Sometimes it's by accident.
(My bf's fashion choices have rubbed off on me consciously. Whenever I visit a certain city, I pick up some of the accent unconsciously.)
I remember, before PhilosophyTube came out as trans, that I started getting a trans vibe. Something about the grooming that was different, I think. Something that felt purposeful and still within "manly" limits, but it felt like a change (especially watching videos out of order) and which felt feminine in approach.
I wouldn't be surprised if trans people were keeping an eye on queer people and picking up and integrating queer-specific gender markers or having queer-specific gender riffs on more general gender traits, which other queers might pick up on more easily.
As a lesbian, it’s happened twice already that one “guy” stands out to me and I think “huh maybe they’re kinda cute and interesting, I wanna get to know them” and then I get to know them better and it’s a closeted trans girl who I somehow sniffed with my little nonbinary lesbian nose
#this theory might be bullshit#I'm throwing it out there in the universe though#because it's something that feels like it might be something#and if I'm wrong people on this site are likely to have pretty good points#which is always nice

friend wanted to see my tumblr, and when i told him i can’t show it to him bc it’s basically my personal diary he went “oh so I can’t see it but a bunch of strangers on tumblr can??” he literally does not get me. no one will get me like the people in my phone get me
#It’s just so different#even though it’s public it still feels secret and safe. i feel comfy sharing a lot more on here than I do in my actual day to day life lol#in my head I’m also just speaking to myself 90% of the time which helps#if a friend off tumblr saw my thoughts I’d feel so weird ab it#esp bc they might get the vagueposting about certain situations and tell mutual friends#no thank u. this is for me. I’m not about to start censoring my thoughts bc someone I know knows my tumblr#u guys literally saw me have LIVE BREAKDOWNS#meanwhile I’ll have the worst fucking day in history and tell no one about it. I’m already cripplingly private but way more so in real life#this is basically a low stress journaling outlet for me. it’s so important for me to maintain the separation#like this is actually my diary & has been so handy for letting out emotions / articulating thoughts / staying on track !!#& I’ve met so many kind people on here who actually get me. which is so hard to find irl bc I’m surrounded by pre-med gunners/overachievers#who are by standard not very good w emotion & can be competitive/judgmental. or at least it’s hard for me to be vulnerable in front of them#and I’m part of that crowd so I reserve my emotions only to a handful of very close friends#it’s nice to hop on here and express negative emotions!! or positive emotions!! just whatever I want and it’s low stress and people get me#I don’t have to worry about judgment or competitiveness etc etc#like everyone on here is so kind & nice & understanding. & just a breath of fresh air from the types I run w. it’s just nice to have this#so idk that’s why I think I’ll always be strict about keeping the worlds separate. it just works#p

your mechanitor's message series has me wanting to draw art of my own colonists
I highly recommend drawing RimWorld pawns as a great way to practice art! I sometimes feel like I should try harder to figure out digital art because of all the stuff I end up drawing while I'm playing. I'd save a lot of money on sketchbooks and paper if I was drawing on my laptop.

I have a whole bookshelf dedicated to sketchbooks, and my desk is running out of room for pencil pots!! Still, I enjoy looking back at older art and feeling like I've improved—and like I'm improving a bit more each day!
It's definitely worth trying, in my opinion, and if you ever feel like posting your efforts... Well, I can never get enough RimWorld content! <3 <3 <3
#asks#rimworld#gracie plays#excuse the rumpled bedsheets#I couldn't find a better backdrop#but yes this is a small selection of sketchbooks I've used for rimworld series#not all of them#I think there are three missing?#three at least#but yes#You should draw your rimworld colonists!!#It's so much fun <3#it makes the game feel more alive#and also makes it easy to come up with ideas on days when the artblock hits hard#which is always nice#thanks for the ask!!#have an amazing day!!! xoxo

*percy seen from a far, wearing a suit*
piper: do my eyes deceive me or is percy jackson wearing formal clothes? since when does he have the ability to look like a domesticated human being?
frank: how come HE, percy of all people, king of untidiness, can wear a cream linen suit and look like a celebrity, but when i tried one on i looked like a man-child going to a high school dance?
hazel: sweetie it’s just because it’s such a casual suit, and you’re much more elegant than percy is!
annabeth, turning to them: um okay, hi percy’s best friends? can you guys compliment him without insulting him?
leo: his ass looks incredible.
grover: has he been working out?
annabeth, side eyeing them:
annabeth: okay, you have all now either insulted him or hit on him. how about from now on, you do neither?
rachel: how about we do both? because i’ve actually just perfected doing them at the same time
#for the record i don’t think his friends disrespect him#i just needed to write something about annabeth defending him (which almost feels ooc after wrath 🙄#while also trying to keep it light#he’s the king of *casual*#and he pulls it off#i love the thought of his friends all giving him a hard time and annabeth being like PLEASE DON’T DISCOURAGE HIM FROM DRESSING NICE#because that girl loves to see her man in a suit#which is canon#by the way#anyone remember paris?#anyway#also i think leo always makes things weird#in the best way possible#percy jackson#annabeth chase#leo valdez#piper mclean#frank zhang#grover underwood#hazel levesque#rachel dare#percabeth#pjo#percy jackson and the olympians#heroes of olympus#incorrect quotes#pjo incorrect quotes#rick riordan#riordanverse

Slimecicle: Whoever said "yaoi is dead" dude, I think you need to put on your freakin'– your bi-focal lenses. Anything's possible.
💗💜💙
#Slimecicle#Charlie Slimecicle#July 22 2024#Dead Plate#People were being kinda weird about bi people in chat because a dude they wanted to ship with a guy said he had a GF#Which sucks. And isn't new because people being weird about bi folks happens no matter who's chat it is#So it was nice seeing Charlie shut it down in a funny way#:')#As a bi person I appreciated it#I don't personally come across a lot of bi-phobia (thankfully) so I'm always startled when I see it.#Like ''Oh. I forgot people are stupid sometimes.''#Anyways that's about as personal as I'll ever get in the tags on this blog lmao
