Sigh to the wips of yesteryear...

Figured I'd go ahead and post all the WIPs I have sitting in my files that I'm probably never going to finish.

First two were meant to be fashion magazine style spreads of the TNG crew. Got much further along with the guys before I gave up on the project. (Ladies are from left to right: Dr. Polaski, Dr. Crusher, Lwaxana, Keiko, Guinen, Deanna, Yarr, and Spot!) Most of these poses are from @adorkastock

An attempt at a 'You Are the Bird' Data piece.

And the 'Draw the Turtles in your fashion' challenge that went around semi-recently.

Another sketch that had to be preserved before committing to ink. 😓

Saw this image a few weeks ago, and just KNEW it had to be The Emperor.

Still can't draw humanoid faces for shit but honestly for me this didn't turn out bad:

Went off one of my screenshots of Astarion at camp and just sorta let myself stylize it instead of trying to focus too hard and it seems to have worked out okayish?? I think????

no point in writing mermaid/human smut if the mermaid doesn’t have a bit of a foot fetish. monsterfuckers like traits on monsters that humans don’t have, the reverse would also be true. don’t be a coward

Talking of disability aids, I did get this cool spoon recently which you can use without any grip at all. It has a long handle which can be bent to fit on your arm and once you get it right it's really quite effective.

At the moment it lets me about half a meal without help (apart from putting it on) in certain situations with my arm supported, and I can even use it with my hand splints on

ID two photos showing an adaptive spoon with a long, curled grey handle. In the first Photo it’s is lying on a tray next to a bowl of rice and an adapted mug. In the second it's been around echos wrist while they eat rice sat in bed with their arm supported by a pillow / end ID

( the company I got it from it's called Active hands)

I was today years old. That is disgusting.

No Child Left Behind is one of the worst things to ever be incentivized in schools. It was signed into law when I was 14. Reading Rainbow was my show as a kid. LeVar Burton played a big part in why I became an avid reader to date. The joy of it. It's an adventure around the globe and through different time periods without stepping on a plane or time machine.

Children parrot behavior. In grade school, I always wanted to read the same amount of books as my teachers (50 books) and managed to double that each year. Before No Child Left Behind, book fairs and Scholastic catalogs were a serious matter like your grandma's Fingerhut catalogs. Libraries were (and still are) a wonderland.

Reading comprehension and proficiency in schools has been declining for decades. A crisis. The joy of books isn't pushed anymore and I'm always saddened by it. It's one of the reasons why I post my book reviews and recommendations on here, as well as posts from others to encourage reading and (novel) writing. Kids will parrot your behavior while the education system sadly fails to return as that example.
