I hope you don't mind me asking this but I'm confused about something. Did you only do Mario art because it was a popular thing? Because it seemed like you thought a lot about it with headcanons and such

Quite the opposite! I ultimately stopped because my blog had gotten too big for my personal comfort, and also because it was occupying too much space inside my mind. 🥲 I was intensely invested in my personal vision of these characters; so much so that I was putting aside important things to accomodate time and energy for it.

And that wasn't healthy.

The previous communities I was in were very small by comparison. Private discord groups for the most part. I was still very new to sharing art with a broader audience when I joined the Mario fandom, and like I mentioned in my update, the effect that this had on me long-term was sadly far from beneficial.

I've always loved discussing headcanons and other concepts regarding the subjects I'm passionate about! And I still very much do. 🤲 But now I aim to do it in a way that feels more reasonable to me and doesn't obstruct my every day life. 🌱🌤️

headcanon ship between Oliver and Douglas 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Ok i don't usuelly do those things because they will took me the time and i'm getting tired faster but here's the small thing for ya☁🌟(ignore the image plz)

🖤°•Douglas and Oliver Headcanons•°💚

🖤💚Douglas found Oliver in the scrapyard with Toad in an unenviable condition. He did not want to leave him there so he would end up as a victim and become scrap, so he decided to help him and get him and Toad out of there. From here, Oliver's feelings began to develop because he saved his and Toad's lives from death

🖤💚Oliver, due to his extreme stupidity (no offense please), cannot differentiate between Douglas and his brother Donald. For example, when he wants to kiss Douglas, he kisses Donald instead of him, and the three of them start laughing and giggling

🖤💚In fact, Oliver has two boyfriends, Douglas and Duck, so each of them takes turns seeing Oliver every day to avoid quarrels and conflict

🖤💚When Oliver was in the scrap yard, he felt extremely sad because he thought that no one would get him out of there and that he would spend his whole life there, and Douglas saving him was a great miracle for him.

🖤💚Oliver can't stop thinking about Douglas and Duck, even if he works, his mind never forgives him.

🖤💚Douglas is talkative, cheerful, and has a childish personality, while Oliver is calm all the time and likes to listen to everything he says.

🖤💚Oliver really loves his nickname "Dougie" so he really likes to call him that

🖤💚In the event that Douglas is involved in an accident, Oliver is responsible for rescuing him and always saves him in the engine form, and vice versa.

So yeah, these are all my Headcanons about those two and i hope you enjoy them weeee (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate religious practice into my life & trying to get over the fear of being...annoying? If that's the right word? It feels a little like tugging on the gods' sleeves when I make more than one offering a day to them even though I know I'm not, like, being rude by *checks notes* giving them things or dedicating time/activities to them. Today I made a dessert in preparation for tomorrow's Pathfinder game and dedicated that time spent baking to Hestia and Aphrodite, and it was really nice! I feel like I'm starting to find my footing despite my worries. I'm also trying to make sure I take time where I'm not thinking about religion at all so that I don't start to ruminate/spiral. It's happened a few times already to varying degrees and it's! Not fun!

It's possible it's hindsight/confirmation bias, but I do think the vibes of my tarot deck changed when I started reaching out to the Greek deities. It makes sense: I was using my deck to reach out to a completely different deity/deities before I started exploring Hellenic polytheism. And it's definitely not in a bad way, just more energetic and...light? When before it was heavier (in a comforting way). I've gotten consistently coherent pulls, too, which is nice.

I've been trying to remember to pour a libation to Hermes at certain street corners when I'm out & about, but I have to make a game plan for when other people are also in the area, even if it's just psyching myself up so I don't look awkward while I do it. I have a pendant that I keep in front of his altar/shrine jar that I try to remember to take with me when I travel, and it's been cool having something in my pocket that's consistently reminding me of him because I check so often to make sure it's still there. There were some...issues with my commute on Monday (a true comedy of errors on the city's part) but the change in routine was a *lot* easier to handle in the morning. Of course, the unusually cool temperature helped, but I do accredit the smooth transition to Hermes because I wasn't stressed at *all* for the vast majority of my commute when I usually would have been wiped from the mental/sensory strain of having to pivot & kinda just hope I guessed right on what to do next. The commute home was a nightmare but I didn't have a whole-ass work day ahead of me after that so the stress didn't matter as much (and I was able to get through the last bus ride & walk from the stop which I wasn't sure I'd have the mental fortitude for).

I'm almost done with the statue of Hermes I've been working on, and I finished a set of alphabet oracle "stones" (squares made from air dry clay...would that technically be closer to potsherds?) tonight. I'll share a picture of them once I finish their bag- I have some leftover green cotton yarn from a recent project that I think will go well with them. We'll see how well they hold up, though I'm not planning on doing the "shake them until one falls out" method so hopefully they'll last a while. I worked on them in the living room this evening, instead of in my room. I'm getting more comfortable showing little elements of what I've been exploring to my housemates; it was nice to be able to sit & paint & listen to the iliad while my friend did his own thing next to me on the couch.

I'm still trying to figure out how to gauge each housemates' potential reactions. It'll probably be fine: friend 1 actively has an altar-esque space and uses tarot cards and a pendulum and friend 2 is friend 1's wife. I'm a bit worried about friend 3 being weird about it, at least at first, but considering he was experimenting with witchcraft-esque things a few years ago (I distinctly remember charms & him discussing which of the wheel of the year days he wanted to observe) I think I'm overthinking things. He's an atheist & his view of witchcraft was, at the very least, *similar* to the psych model, which I think is where the hesitation has been coming from on my end. I have therapy this weekend so I think I'll start bringing things up then. The office my therapist is in openly advertises all sorts of alt/witchcraft things so I think I'll be safe there lol

[bunnyboy-juice]

i love that ppl are talking about the real adult problems that come from being autistic, including substance abuse, but can we please be sure that we're not over compensating for this by making the false association that all autistic people who partake in drugs or alcohol are struggling/in a bad place/are abusing it???

sophie is always getting dressed up or doing a little theatre project or something while eliot fights for his life in the next room over lol. i’m sure she’d argue that it is going great on her end, everyone else just needs to do their job as well as she does hers and everything would be fine 😇 not her fault that she’s so talented. maybe if your resting face wasn’t a kubrick stare, you’d also get to spend jobs drinking champagne instead of getting your shirt all bloodied, eliot.

the way sophie spent like 90% of the polygeist job leading chants. she’s truly on a meditative glamping retreat while the others are trying to survive fights with people who want to kill them.
