conspiracy why
i can never get behind conspiracy theories about the world. like... there’s an ancient civilization that existed that happened to be a buncha bearded, white dudes that seeded all civilizations that came after?
aliens guided the hands of every ancient person?
it ain’t as old as geologists, archaeologists and paleontologists have reasonably theorized?
scientists are trying to hide shit from the rest of humanity because they think it upsets the “NARRATIVE”?
have you met scientists? they’d be dropping these bombs on us like crazy... IF there was honest-to-god evidence that didn’t come from suppositions and drunken, deliberate misinterpretations of things people have found. believe me, they’d be screaming on the rooftops about it — and other scientists would be doing the same thing refuting it in an epic nerd fight.
the world is magic and wonderful enough already, you don’t need weirdo “theories” to make it more-so: the planet is 4.5 billion years old! big, FUCK OFF LIZARDS stomped around before our mammalian ancestors proliferated because of a chance rock slamming into our planet! we’re still technically living in an ice age, and our entire civilization emerged within an inter-glacial period!  dogs are our besties! we can talk to each other by wiggling the air!
shit, dudes. take off the cooky-vison glasses and check out the coolest things that are real.

bro let’s be honest
i’ve realized that I love doing art. but art comes in different forms, right? so, as much as I love doing drawn and painted art, I’ve come to a realization recently that I have a deep love for writing it. i don’t know how often I’ll post shit that I like writing on this tumblr blog, rest assured that I’m trying my best to put time into my drawn stuff, but I have a great love for writing. nearly every day I’m not doing my job, I’m usually thinking about stories I am currently writing and things I want to write, insofar that I will bother every single person in my life (j/k, I love talking about it) about the things I’m thinking of when it comes to storytelling.
i know you, dear reader, have never read anything that I’ve written. i know that because:
a) you don’t have access to my Google Docs archive
b) you’ve never seen where I put my silly fan fiction
i just want you to know that I love drawing, but my primary love is writing. i think that I will link shit that I like to write here when I actually finish it because, well, I’m a busy motherfucker with a job (yuck) and when life gets in the way, it completely derails any efforts that I’ve drilled my heart into because of said life.
i also have a deep unhappiness when I work on my drawn work. I like making stories, world and characters, and when I put labor into one drawn piece, I am normally straining like a sonuva bitch because an hour of me drawing would, probably, be the end of a sketch. it’s FUCKING AGONIZING. whereas, an hour of writing will allow me to push a story forward in its design. my ambitions are more readily accomplished in an hour of writing compared to an hour of drawing, fully aware of the fact that my skill in both vary wildly. i love drawing, but I am extremely impatient.
so, for the future, this blog will strive to incorporate both things that I love, but visual art is not my primary focus, despite the initial inspiration for the conception of said blog. i like fan fiction, and i like my own, original creations. whenever i finish original works, I will post them here if the thought occurs.
thanks for reading, internet friend.

lizard has wares. zecora’s house from MLP. thought they’d be fun to doodle out :)
just practice to make shaded shapes and making things with a little more depth. hard for my camera to really capture it in person, though. practice, practice!

"I killed another houseplant bc of executive dysfunction"
Mundane
Evokes helplessness
Kind of a bummer
"Plagued by demons as I am, my crops have withered yet again"
Powerful imagery
Frames you as a gothic protagonist
Emphasizes that you are hounded by demons
How fucking cool are demons???
