I'm in my hate my art moment but I am really proud of myself because this year and especially recently I have drawn more than ever. and the fact that I dislike what I do means I am improving and if I put my heart into practicing I'll get so much better soon

This!
Learning is a process, especially when we are young. We succeed, we make mistakes, we try, but it's the effort that matters.
Like in a good adventure story, it's about the way and how it changes us. It's not only about the knowledge we retain, but also the skills we acquired - how to handle knowledge, how to solve problems, how to express ourselves...
It's like walking. If you get a ride everywhere, you build neither stamina nor muscles. And you grow more and more dependent on riding. Taking the walks is tiring and might not make you into an athlete, but it sure is good for your overall health.
"what did students do before chatgpt?" well one time i forgot i had a history essay due at my 10am class the morning of so over the course of my 30 minute bus ride to school i awkwardly used by backpack as a desk, sped wrote the essay, and got an A on it.
six months later i re-read the essay prior to the final exam, went 'ohhhh yeah i remember this', got a question on that topic, and aced it.
point being that actually doing the work is how you learn the material and internalize it. ChatGPT can give you a short cut but you won't build you the the muscles.

#i’ve been thinking abt that cringe post#i think the latent feelings behind ‘cringe’ are shame and sometimes envy/bitterness#same vibes as when six year olds say ‘those toys are for babies’ if they’ve been shamed for their age by older kids#anyway. i think part of the healing process is realizing that shame puts you at war with yourself bc part of yourself is a social being!#and that part of you wants community and acceptance (maybe love). shame is the absence of acceptance#unlearning shame means learning self-love and gaining the confidence to find your people#jerma#cw jerma#(someone asked me to tag lol)

#big day for doomed yaoi enjoyers#(me)#i’m never ever doing this again i was screaming every minute coloring this i literally cannot do hard light#biggest case of “trust the process” i’ve ever experienced in my life#also i was gonna originally do a gun instead of knife to keep it canon but i quickly learned i can’t in fact draw guns#a knife is more symbolic anyway. stabbed in the back. yk#(trying to comfort myself that i can’t draw firearms even after eight years of art)#i remember playing this scene for the first time and actually breaking down at 2am bc that betrayal STUNG#i actually had no remorse for akechi after that 😭😭 i actually felt like a sadist for enjoying beating his ass in shidos palace#akechi as a character was specifically designed to make me go through all five stages of grief within a matter of minutes#absolute rollercoaster of emotions#ANYWAY IM FINALLY FREE TIME TO NOT DO ART FOR THE NEXT FOUR MONTHS 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼#persona 5 royal#persona 5#p5#p5r#ren amamiya#akira kurusu#goro akechi#akechi goro#shuake#akeshu#lotus draws

Some more for the list, if you don't mind
*rakes leaves in fall "because it looks messy" or "my kids/dog/etc LOVE playing in the raked mounds!! ❤️"
*unsustainable moss (or any plant really but moss especially) foraging
*planting invasive species/seeds in wild areas "for biodiversity"
*using poisons on infestations or local pests like rats and mice
*I got rid of it all, I want some pretty plants (looking at milkweed, bb I'm so sorry)
*I got these wildflower meadow seeds from the garden centre, they help wildlife!! (Not catered to your area or the biome you live in)
Bingo of bad naturalist takes you can fill out when someone's being stupid about wildlife
@cathartidae you asked to be tagged when i posted it well here it is :>
#this is so good#wildlife#animals#nature#environment#the last one... not always their fault but like if you aren't sure or you don't know#please do ask someone#or do some research on the area you live in#no one can judge you for asking questions#but they can judge the actions you take#learning is a process#you're not gonna get it right first time based on assumptions#statistically anyway#join local groups if you have any#there are loads of conservation effort volunteer groups like 20 mins down the road from me#foraging groups etc that teach you everything#take a look around#go learn smth

I was 14 too when I wrote my first fanfic, a 10k Shaman King mess with OCs made out of my middle school friends. I was already writing non-fanfic then, very awkwardly of course, but this project was the beginning of taking writing seriously, with intent and purpose. And of course, it was bad, it was childish and cringe.
But then it wasn't.
Because a Shaman King messy angsty fanfic led to two or three others, then to shorts novels, then to actual full-on original novels. Because it led me to learn about narrative technique and worldbuilding, to get insanely fast at typing - and okay, I'm never gonna be famous or anything, that was never the point anyway.
Fanfic helped me connect with people who enjoyed what I was doing. It's what ignited the feeling of oh shit I may just have found a piece of me.
AO3 is not a classroom, you're not there to get evaluated. It's not a workplace, it's not a school, it's a platform made for free, unbound, raw artistic expression.
So why would you have a dislike button in a place like this?
People don't write on AO3 to get evaluated, or mocked, or blamed. They're here to share and connect. And you can help them grow with constructive criticisms and advices - seriously, when did a dislike had taught anybody anything?
"i want a dislike button on ao3" so you want less fanfic. even if you don't think you want less fanfic you want less fanfic. because when people start getting dislikes on their fanfic they will want to write less fanfic. hope this helps <3

Shen Yuan is very special to me bc he’s the type of person who would say “they would NOT fucking say that” to the person who is in fact, in the process of saying that. Binghe is out here trying to confess his love and Shen Yuan is slamming his hands into his ears and yelling ooc.
#Svsss can be summed up by saying it’s the process of SQQ learning that his actions had caused his blorbo to in fact say that.#SQQ is a clown I love him dearly#shen qingqiu#lou binghe#bingqiu#svsss#scum villian self saving system
