I am so sorry for the radio silence,but while I have not been active here,I have been a bit more active on my Tiktok account.I have also just started a new job as well,so hopefully soon,I can start actually sitting down and not just create but post on a regular basis!Thank you for being patient!

I did a while back with old friends, but then I was like 'they're not the only person in the world that enjoys it, so why can't I enjoy it too?' Especially if they try to gatekeep it, now I'm just like 'f I, I'm going to like it just to spite you now' lol

do you ever see a moot/friend so into something you're like "Im never reading/watching/touching this thing, it's their thing and Im not gonna taint it with my own enjoyment"? or is it just me?

Sorry for the radio silence, I've been packing up to move halfway across the country. Hopefully I'll be able to do more and post more than right now. I also have new things in the works. To fill the void, here are some pieces that I did in high school for my graphic design class. #digitalartist

This will not be the first economic blackout or the last. But it's a place for new people to start, and for others to continue their boycott. Eat. The. Rich.

A graphic titled "2025 Economic Blackout Schedule" outlines planned consumer blackouts. The word "BLACKOUT" is displayed in bold black letters with a crossed-out shopping cart icon inside the letter "O." A calendar and clock emoji appear in the top right corner. The schedule lists:

Total Blackout (Feb. 28): No purchases at all, with a recommendation to buy essentials in advance and shop local if necessary.
Amazon Blackout (March 7-14): No purchases from Amazon.
Nestlé Blackout (March 21-28): No purchases of Nestlé products, including Gerber, Perrier, Chefmate, Purina, and Friskies.
Walmart Blackout (April 7-14): No purchases from Walmart or Walmart.com. A sad face emoji is next to Walmart's name.
Total Blackout 2 (April 18): Another full no-purchase day with similar recommendations.
At the bottom, three sections encourage people to:

Spread the word – by sharing the information.
Prepare – by purchasing necessities before the blackout days.
Spend $0 – by avoiding purchases on blackout days and shopping local if necessary.

Smiley day! My name is Ali and I'm a freelance artist and writer. I draw and write stories about my characters, plus drawing fanart for my friends and my favorite fandoms. You can find me on Instagram and Tumblr, but my main is Bsky. My Patreon and Kofi are also open, go have a look there!

I really think social media should make a reporting section for scammers. They're so rampant on these sites, especially ones scamming artists like myself trying to get easy money on unsuspecting victims. Idk what the repercussions would be, but I would sleep a little easily if there were punishments

I just did 5 minutes on my new stair-stepper, and being the first workout I've had in years, it really threw me for a loop. My knees were shaking, but its only given me more motivation to actually get in shape again. High school body, please come back ;- ;

I woke up at around 7 this morning and was so uncomfortable and physically exhausted, but I took a took about an hour nap even though my body was not letting me and I feel much better. Why are human bodies so irritating and weird?

Whoever invented no-contact food delivery is a godsend. Wasn't having the best last few days, but I treated myself to Popeyes and I couldn't more happy to open the door to an almost negative degree winter to get a box of nice hot fried chicken~
