As , the United States, potentially heads into another forever war I can only think of this quote.

The nap..... it took him ....and his brows

But it's ok because minecraft with little brother is better than losing your eyebrows to the nap

Hey all, Crips for Esims for Gaza has been purchasing E-sims for people in Gaza and need help to continue their advocacy!

We link them in our Hi Nay episodes but want to remind people to help out if they can and donate! They're an offshoot of the E-sims for Gaza program created by Mirna El-Helbawi, and allow you to, if you are overwhelmed by the E-sims purchasing process, streamline it.

You donate to Crips for Esims for Gaza, and they do it for you. Help these fantastic disabled activists if you're able!

Link in replies so Tumblr doesn't hide this!

i think the true horror of i saw the tv glow is the feeling of the narrative haunting you after you've seen it. i think the movie is simultaneously a warning against repression and ignoring your true self, a narrative of those who dont always have the life they wanted to live, and a story full of hope that you can still cut yourself open and see what's inside, and you can always walk out of the door of your old life. but you have to be the one to do it. your friend cannot save you. your interests cannot save you. you have to save yourself and that in itself is a haunting narrative. the horror that we see in i saw the tv glow is not at all jumpscares or gore or creepy crawlies that other horror films have, but its the horror of longing, of fear, of knowing that you shouldve taken that chance when you were younger but you know deep down you can still do it. dont fool yourself into thinking that once you're 20, 25, 30, 40, that you cant take your life into your own hands, that your choices arent yours to make anymore. it will always hurt, at least a little, to cut open your own chest and to let it out and see who you are inside but theres never a better time to do that then now, even if that's when you're stuck at a deadend job after you had a public breakdown. you can walk out of the door. there is still time.

Right thumb is feeling better, left wrist varies in pain levels, so I'm opening commissions again! I don't really need my left wrist for drawing.

But I think the actual pain culprit is mh nintendo switch lol, I picked up zelda totk for a replay and it seems the way I hold the device with my little baby hands really does a number on my left wrist. Fascinating.

Cannot see myself buying the switch2, which is just a less colorful switch with much larger proportions.

Anyway. Commission info is up on my ko-fi page.

I'd like to have enough money for a new drawing tablet, but I don't think that will happen until I've gotten those new illustration projects this summer. My touchscreen laptop folds over to be a tablet, but the stylus is rather small and even though I recently replaced the nib, it's really been struggling with pen pressure lately >:/ which obviously makes my work rather difficult. Especially if I want to focus on making that fantasy art advice book. I can keep my laptop around for writing, but it just isn't the best for art.

The tablet I want is the Wacom movink, which is less than $800! Between that and a nice tablet stand and also shipping costs, my current finance goal is to save up $900. So any commissions I get will be very helpful!

And as always, of course, while my advice doodles are free for inspiration, if you want to use my art directly in a project, just commission me! Thanks!
