decentralize and clean up your life!!!

use overdrive, libby, hoopla, cloudlibrary, and kanopy instead of amazon and audible.

Disco swap au

I saw someone mention it is hard to see Kim get himself into a Harry like situation for swap au's. Which is a fun question to try and answer I figured a story solution could be the skills, after all they contribute to Harry's nightmares and negative self-talk a good bit.

So, I plagued Kim with all the skills but also with high inland empire and shivers, he's still kind of a skeptic but mostly just desperately tries to play off what's going on in his head. He's so normal. Harry is chilling without brain voices and his neat ledger.

If Kim passes a red check on the first day Harry just thinks he is a super high concept investigator with a brilliant undercover technique

Also, his glasses talk instead of a tie (And they're the worst!)

weird little cat in the middle of the street

[art-newt]

new dnd character profile for a game I'm finally playing. I am so so very pumped for that

His name is rocket sauce, he's a wild magic barbarian who became a minotaur when magic lightning struck a calf

Harry and his mighty steed, a true knight in shining armor

Kelpie carousel

beached

coming up with ideas is hard so uh more fish man. Imagine if the little mermaid was about a grown man that was evicted by the ocean

[art-newt]

eh hehheheheh I got ideas now and they are all coming together

tuna fish man got a name now, it's Manny and he is experiencing the horrors of modern society while dealing with the ramifications of ancient deity leaving high and dry! :D

More disco furries ✨

I went with a jackal for Kim. But that took me an embarrassingly long time to come up with lol. Especially cause I adore seeing him as a cat too.

If I was 10% more sleep deprived, I would have done the snake just because of the image of a snake driving a car

Here's harry too

[art-newt]

harry du boar

Good excuse to do a style study by giving a middle-aged man a fursona

I think he's like one of those boars that tusks grow back into their skull

Also here's Kim

[art-newt]

I got a blanket hoodie and it looks so much like a monk robe but green so I made this little guy.

His name is brother comfortable, and he goes on cozy adventures with his messed up medieval painting cat

[art-newt]

oh unnamed tuna man what is your deal and why do you live in my brain

(also he might not have a name, but his cat's name is cow)

[art-newt]

Harry du Bois and his maybe supernatural bullshit

[art-newt]

i feel like this is important enough to put on here.

if you have any videos on youtube make sure this is unchecked
