new guy alert!! she's a lindwyrm who pilots an old suit of armour and has caused many legends of evil ghost knights staggering down the road at night. in reality she's not a ghost, she's a nasty little man who wants to sell you illicit substances and talk about her insane and sordid past

#my art #oc #caracles #dragon #knight #hating drawing hard sculptured surfaces and then designing a character in intricate armour just so I can feel something #also um hello sorry for posting no art and generally being inactive i've been slow roasting in my own head and suffering from art block #i have 100000 wips and nothing to show for it.....i hope i can shake my disease by the time art fight rolls around #in like a week. haha. oh no i'm in danger #anyway i saw kim deal last week and kristin hersh a month ago and long story short i loooooooooove you old women rock stars.......#more of them in the world please and thank you....they both so cool.....dreamy sigh #ALSO i'll make my yearly official art fight post later i've simply been too busy to really think about it until now #but obviously i'm doing it this year i'm gonna do more attacks than ever before #(DOUBT) but also perhaps...?

When I broke the cycle, I made sure that the tear was rough. You carry a part of what should be her, and she carries a part of what should be you.

Learning to celebrate the little wins!

#fersona #While I don't have the capacity to do Hourly Comics Day #I did journal my day hour-by-hour and the sheer difference in my self-care and routines is *staggering*.#Honestly both Feb 1 2024 and 2025 were rough days...but this year I had a far better outlook on it all.#The funny part is that when I drew this a few days ago I actually *was* celebrating not crying.#Might have still cried on Feb 1st. A meagre 4 times. But I also had lot of good moments!#January is a very hard month for me and frankly I've been in a fugue state for most of it.#Drawing helped me pull through these last 2 years but this year I've been finding myself so upset at how I can't seem to focus anymore.#So updates and posts have been slow. I'm just slow. I'm tired and burnt out from work and grieving.#But you know what? The days I do manage to post; I'm never shamed for how long it took. You're all just as excited and kind.#I'm coming home and eating better and sleeping more and spending time with loved ones.#This is all to say; you can be a lot happier when you realize that life can be taken a little slower.#I'm more grateful that words can possibly convey.#If you related to the mindset of constantly feeling like you've 'failed' the day; please know you have done more than you realize.#I'm struggling with it everyday! I'm in the trenches with you!#Life is too short and painful to not celebrate what you *do* accomplish! It's hard work but it is worth it!#Bit by bit...we will learn to live. *Really* live. And enjoy it!

i am losing my entire shit right now, this single panel caused a nuclear disaster in my ig comments when someone said "halsin just saying 'astarion's partner' instead of his name feels icky"

which is such a fucking reach by itself but descended into this in about 5 seconds

#ramble #i keep getting older but the fandom bullshit never changes #i'm in pieces rn i am begging this person to get some real problems #i feel like it's an offence to even MENTION the pyramid of harm/hate on this???? like that's a Thing #but offhandedly referring to someone as 'person-you-know's partner' isn't a MIGROAGGRESSION IT'S A DESCRIPTOR SFDHDKSSDK #am i on shutter island. is this real #literally every job i've worked. 'oh xyz's girlfriend came in today'. 'i met so and so's partner yesterday'#HOW DO I EXPLAIN TO AN ADULT THAT CALLING SOMEONE 'PERSON'S PARTNER' IS A VERY NORMAL WAY TO REFER TO SOMEONE THE OTHER PERSON DON'T KNOW #i know it literally doesn't matter but as like. a storytelling thing #in my mind halsin has probably known astarion a LONG ASS time and he WOULD know dorian. he went to the wedding akfhdfh #ashe does not give enough of a shit to remember people's names. he's been at that arena for 30 years and forgets there's even a hockey side #ALSO IT'S NOT REAL #i need to put my face in some moss i'm dying

happy solvermas

#cause t. no actually if christ is the son of god and the solver is god then it'd be like uzimas #quick sketch i pulled out of my ass yesterday to see if i could get myself out of art block/burnout/whatever ive got going on #v was added after cause i had no idea how to work her into the scene #implied nuziv or something look man im just desperate about this ship #and i dont know how to draw fluff or whatever #im so bad at romance i dont know how to express it #but i've been desperately trying to draw nuziv for the past months #i think this is actually like some of my best linework yet im really satisfied with everything right now #been a long time since i've felt that #turns out the “stop overthinking every pixel of the expressions and just draw the approximation the audience will get the jist” approach wo #ks #something something n is the star of their life. tree light chrismtas #it is taking. All of my restraint right now #to not be So Mean to all of you #You Don't Even Know #I Could Do Something. I Might Still.#art #murder drones #murder drones uzi #uzi doorman #murder drones n #serial designation n #murder drones v #serial designation v #murder drones cyn #i need liam to explain whether cyn and the solver are the same person already so i can tag them appropriately its driving me nuts #oh yeah cyn got a plush core to chew on by the way #the idea of giving her a chew toy was rolling around in my head and i think its a very funny visual so here we are

also in case anyone cares i've been screen recording episodes of monster factory and uploading them to the internet archive and youtube unlisted just in case polygon fr goes down

#idk if they'd delete the channel if the company goes under bc it's not like they have any overhead for keeping it up #but worst case scenario i think youtube deletes accts that haven't been logged into in a long time #so maybe this will help long term #they're my comfort videos tho so i'd hate to see them disappear #also i've been screen recording them #there's prob a better way to do it but i didn't wanna risk getting a virus at the end of the semester #i'll prob try and do unraveled after if it hasn't already been done #anyway slayyyy #monster factory #polygon

Prolific animator Yoshihiko Umakoshi (馬越嘉彦) is best known for his work in shonen anime like My Hero Academia, however he also worked on several episodes of Kunihiko Ikuhara's 2011 Mawaru Penguindrum. During this time, he gave us this Revolutionary Girl Utena piece, itself a bonus purchase privilege poster at Mandarake stores for the purchase of Monthly Anime Style (月刊アニメスタイル) magazine, Vol 5.

It was first published as the full-color feature of the Hardcore of Utena's Supplement booklet in 2013. The Hardcore of Utena is a massive, two volume artbook released at Comiket 84, where you could receive this booklet with the purchase of the larger volumes. Mostly miscellaneous sketch art that features elsewhere, I nevertheless had it scanned already and felt like, hell, let's just finish it and get up there for you! So here are the scans of the 44 page booklet, or if you want the even larger versions, or a download of the lot, I also uploaded it to the Internet Archive! That's gonna be a pattern, y'all. ;)

#revolutionary girl utena #utena #yoshihiko umakoshi #heartcatch precure #my hero academia #utena meta #empty movement #utena archiving #anime archiving #comiket #for real i keep adding things to this site update because it's easier than the miserable process of compiling it all #this is peak adhd in actions folks i've been trying to update the site so long #but every time i sit down to code that #I find some more shit to do rofl #anyways lots is coming including maybe some free shit #idk

It's honestly frustrating that I've seen non-Russian queer people almost bragging about how they would be illegal in Russia, labeled an extremist or terrorist. Russian queers are in danger, their government has made it clear where it stands, and it's made this effort for the better part of a decade (even longer, perhaps). This will kill people, don't mistake this for a quirky little proclamation from a government, akin to somebody saying the sky is pink. Russian queer people were already expressing their fear, and the least we can do now is express our love for them, and advocate with them.

Russian queer people, I love you. I love you all so much. I am so sorry, I cannot begin to express the grief that I feel, and I hope that you are safe. Words cannot encapsulate how I feel as a non-Russian, and I cannot hope to comprehend how it feels to actually be in this situation.

#queer #lgbt #lgbtq #ofc this has been brewing for a long time and it has been really troubling to say the very LEAST #honestly i have seen russian queers joke about the situation which feels different. honestly it's almost admirable #i just can't find it funny to see non-Russians do it simply because the threat of prosecution or death for people is too high in my mind #it feels almost voyeuristic when non-russians joke like that to me #like i've joked about the state of (us)american queer rights when it feels too bleak but i live here #i guess when people only joke about it it tells me they don't think it's a big deal or that it won't affect queer people...#...because it won't affect them as an outsider likely #it's just shitty. all around. and it's the type of thing that i'm not sure what to do #queerphobia #queerphobia tw
