Grumpy artist, Ohio cryptid, and weird Buick enjoyer. Photographs bugs and cars, draws furry goobers, and talks super robot anime.

Decided I was gonna SLEEP. Did all my errands yesterday, gave Maya more than enough food for the night, closed my bedroom door, turned on noise machine and got COMFY with fresh bedding Then upstairs neighbor decided to play HOURS OF BILLY JOEL FULL BLAST. It pierced my dreams then woke me up early

I have all the fixins to make curry from scratch (I got so much produce from a food pantry) but none of the energy. Can someone be my wife-or-mom and cut all these veggies for me ; H ; (I don't trust myself with a knife or making a roux at these tiredness levels)

Really tired and not feeling great today but just wanted to say I was able to pay my electric bill and avoid disconnect. Thanks everyone that helped out! Really appreciate it even if words escape me right now.

More practice with this idea. I think the trickiest part is balancing the line weight/thickness to allow enough detail while still giving the carving some depth.

Man wtf I just applied to a job online and it was like "you don't have enough education why are you applying" and I kinda wanted to type "fuck you that's why" in the reply field >:V Out here getting rejections before I even finish the application FML

late night rant but I got "a job is a job'd" today and it's so frustrating that my mom does this to me, my therapist, my rude-ass 9yo niece (fucking seriously, child?) and now people online. I don't get what's so bad about going "I don't want this job but I would do it" EMPHASIS- I WOULD DO IT

The irony of getting a job rejection on Labor Day isn't lost on me, but considering the interviewer made a point that they play showtunes in the office to signify how "non-toxic" they are, I dodged a bullet (my hatred of showtunes and musicals in general should be well established by now :T )

Appreciate everyone that's helping out with my situation btw. I've been a tad slow with correspondence but should catch up this weekend. I spend most of my weeks applying for jobs, talking with career coach, therapist, and an advocacy group, and working on my job-related skills via workshops.

This recently came up so figured I'd adress it: If you want to help keep my lights on but don't want/can't afford a commission, that's also fine! You can drop me a line and I'll give you the pay info- any bit helps and is appreciated all the same ♥️

Did you know that big studios monitor piracy? Don't you fucking dare pirate this shit. Do not hate watch through piracy. JK Rowling is a disgusting human being that funds and encourages the hurt, pain and death of my fellow trans peers. Support media that actually deserves our time and money.

This. When an IP is owned by a living person who is using the money from said IP to inflict lasting harm on a vulnerable minority, there is no possible way to separate the art from the artist.
