“Wait, so this is why other people always have their priorities straight? Work and fun feel similar to them? The same sort of brain chemical release?”

“Because like, if skateboarding feels the same as doing homework, WHY skateboard? I could just walk for exercise and then do homework.”

“This is why everyone pretty much is expected to grow up and be a boring adult.”

“Well, I refuse to join the ranks. But…I recognize there’s a time and place for fun. I just have to carve out that place myself apparently.”

“I think I know how to manage my time now…tentatively. And how to regulate when I take my meds and when I don’t.”

I think a reason why I love sfth so much is that it strays so far from the mindset that I've developed as a musician.

as a guitarist, you must never make a mistake. oh, you missed a note? you played one note a little too loudly? your string buzzed on a chord change? your entire performance is now forever tainted. all practice is to mitigate mistakes. mistakes are the bane of your existence. and if you dare to make a mistake onstage? you better not show it. you must be graceful as a swan, hiding your desperately thrashing feet behind a facade of elegance.

but sfth? they embrace all of that. they don't shy away from making mistakes, in fact they embrace it. mistakes are repeatedly highlighted and become part of the sketch. for sfth, mistakes are the performance. and I think there's something beautiful about that.

#junyu rambles #shoot from the hip #ok fine maybe I did recently do a performance and made some silly mistakes and I just want to cope with it by ranting about my favourite im #what of it #I love classical guitar but a part of me wishes it was more relaxed #like I also play jazz and it's so much more fun because a part of the performance is enjoying the music #but with classical guitar it's so strict with that sort of stuff #I'm not even a full classical musician #(I play classical guitar but am not classically trained)#but I still feel this implicit to be as close as perfect as possible #and every little error in my playing feels like it's put through a magnifying glass of judgement #so idk it's nice to see people embrace the mistakes :]#(even if that's just part of their job)#this is so fucking random I'm sorry lmao #`

#Doodles #Pokemon #Kabu #Larry #Firebland #Silverstreakshipping #To the shock of no one this is Zarla's fault (lol)#Bad influence! Too inspiring! Stop this! I'm totally not culpable for Being Inspired for the [X]th time now definitely lol #I kept finding little ideas popping into my head with them and I mean if I've already doodled them Once I guess I could try a couple more #Learned them just well enough to keep finding things for them pft #Although I am surprised by just how easy I find Larry to Draw - not necessarily that I'm fully Confident in drawing him yet but like #There's very little struggle to the shapes I put down here and I'm fairly pleased with their configuration haha #Kabu on the other hand!! Why is he so hard to draw!!! What!! Like I know his clothes are complex but no his face!#He's got a really cute and difficult-to-draw face! Why! I cannot figure him out #It's probably the do with the shape and size of his head...his hair........ I really enjoy fluff and he's Kind of but Not Really fluffy??#And his white streaks aren't intuitive to me - but Larry's floofs are??? I don't know #The only thing I can figure it that I Kind Of draw Dexter the same way - Larry's streaks are like an exaggerated version of how I floof Dex #And then a suit is second nature by now but I've already talked about my difficulties with Kabu's clothes lol #Didn't stop me from putting him out front for this hug tho! It's cute... Kabu asking Larry to come play with him but Larry has stuff to do #May or may not have felt a little that way myself - made most of these doodles during Requestober haha so busy!#The brightly shining brilliant glow boyfriend setup-payoff returns ♥ He glows like a fire! Overwhelming!#I still really love that glow cutaway style around the low-bouncing flower haha - just don't draw there and it gives the impression! Fun :)#Hugs <3 Unsurprisingly been in the want of cute fluff and sweetness and hugs were very on the menu #It really is fun to think of Larry being just a Little weird about how much he feels for Kabu #Acting childish as that part of him hasn't had the chance to grow and mature! Stuck awkward and gangly in otherwise full development #Feelings so big and strong and immediate for the first time in too too long <3 Gotta express them all somehow #And ending off with a bit of silliness haha - was Kabu prompting him just to hear such an answer? Who knows ♪#Larry just too straightforward haha - why else would he do or say things unless he felt like it! Pfsh obviously #Haha

Linktober Day 8. Tunic

#linktober #linktober 2024 #the legend of zelda #wind waker #ocarina of time #loz #loz ww #loz oot #link #josh art tag #had a lot of fun with this one despite how annoying it was to draw #oot link was at a difficult angle and i also just could not shade this for the life of me. restarted the shading like 3 times #i think im reaching that point in the cycle i typically go thru with my artstylr where ive grown tired of my shading style #to the point that i forget how to do it and it never quite looks right #so if my next post features changes to my artstyle thats why lol #but i enjoyed making this despite that cuz i like the ideas behind it!#i normally wouldve redesigned ww!link's outfit but i purposefully drew it accurately #to highlight how its more like a costume. cuz thats kinda what it was! and its modeled after the hero of times clothes #but is pretty innacurate. which i think is cool.. shows how much time has passed and how the view of the hero of time has warped #so i also purposefully made oot link wearing my redesigned outfit for him (even if you cant see much of it at this angle)#to further emphasize how ww!link's outfit is not only essentially a costume but is also quite innacurate #i like having ww!link ditch the costume for something else to show how he stops being some kid in oot!link's shadow #and grows into a true hero of his own #hence my ww!link redesign where i put him back in the lobster shirt. but i do keep some green and something similar to the hat #to have him fit in with the other links while still being unique #look i have a lot of feelings about ww!link and oot!link #i wish zelda would do more stuff like this... i think having oot relate to wind waker makes the story more interesting #and makes ww!link more interesting! cuz he cant be the hero of time they want. but he does become the real hero they need #the oot ww tp trio is so good... and they all work great as standalone games but their connections do really add something

ur probably sick of seeing posts like these but i just want to sit here and muse about how, well, i enjoy tumblr #mytumblr not just because of all the obvious stuff like how it’s not run on an algorithm, and because it’s one of the only social media that i don’t have to jump through hoops to use and that isn’t phone-exclusive (for me)

but i think my favorite thing has to be the askblogs, and running one. which is weird, because if you asked me as little as 3 years ago what i loved most about tumblr, i’d probably say “uh, looking at owl house posts, i guess?”, it’s weird because i never actually planned to make one and created it on a whim based on a few random people’s tags, and even then it was made mostly as a joke. i just never thought about it before—i grew up with askblogs, an era of tumblr that was truly as magical as it was catastrophic (as all things that get vaguely popular), but i never thought about making one because: it’s a commitment, it seems like a lot, i’m inconsistent, how would i draw for it every single time, etc etc all that good stuff

but then i just made it. and fuck me is it the most fun thing ever. it doesn’t have to be consistent. it doesn’t have to be perfect, or polished, or anything really. it just has to be. to exist out there in the world and be open to messages. the most it has to be is loved by me and by u guys.

and that’s the thing! the best thing—i love involving u guys in my writing, pushing the characters in one direction and then the next, seeing where that takes us (because i don’t always know either, that’s what writing is all about babeyyy). i love that i don’t have to just post the most important plot beats one after the other and have the story be done there. i love that i get to weave the development through vaguely connected, sometimes relevant but sometimes completely random joke asks. that i don’t have to write a whole ass novel of build-up or draw everything as one long-running comic just to make my characters feel like they actually exist and react to the things around them, that they’re not just here to get from point a to b. and i love that you’re all part of it. the story seriously just wouldn’t be the way it is without all of you guys who are always so curious to ask something, or call a character out (depending on how much they need to be humbled COUGHHHHCOUGHHHHH)

so yeah, i’m just forever grateful for all of you and for the fact that tumblr allows things like these to happen. i have no idea what other site could possibly offer the same sort of experience, or anything similar, but i am just forever in love with the fact that it’s something you can do here. i wouldn’t trade it for anything. what a cool fucking thing to be able to do

#i suppose if tumblr ever truly kicks the bucket you guys are free to send me emails with questions to my ocs #we can still clutch.#crammerposting #i just love the format? medium? so much it feels perfect to me #i dont know what i’d do otherwise #a long as fuck one-big-narrative comic sounds exhausting and so does like…a fic series #theoretically you Can make them work in the way you want to but…idk….i really enjoy these lil distractions #of the characters getting to talk to you guys and not just thinking about their problems 24/7 #and u guys finding misc stuff out about them and just having fun with them #it really gives room to breathe! it’s probably not impossible in comic/writing form but i think it’s the most feasible in askblog form #and obv running an askblog is also demanding and tiring. i am just one person with two hands fucked up health and limited time/energy #who is somewhat winging the story direction but that just adds to the fun #there have been months where i was so burnt out on my ocs i didnt even want to be reminded of their existsence #(that’s just a normal part of roleplaying as your characters and thinking about them for months on end #sometimes i wanna do other stuff toooo)#and things have been slow because of all of those factors #a year ago i thought we’d be way further in the story by now #but that’s ok :) that’s the thing i love about doing this. it’s completely freeform. there’s no schedule. no limit. no consistency #just me and yall and my characters who suck. and we all get to make fun of them for sucking #but yes even though things are slow and i’m sort of struggling to make a comeback. i still love all of it so much #i love that you guys are always there for it. that you wait so long and always offer the same amount of enthusiasm. you are all really #patient and lovely #i guess that’s another thing about tumblr. the communities you cultivate here are dare i say awesome👍

I've been saving the money from my recent 6 day weeks at work to buy a meet and greet ticket with Misha at CR10 but now I've come to buy it I'm suddenly like, that's a lot of money though.

And it's like, well yeah, that's literally what you did extra shifts for!

#asdhjhgshfjkl Im struggling to buy it now that I'm faced with parting with that much money - even though I saved specifically for it!#I just thought I'd treat myself with something fun #lifes too short and as long as I'm being sensible I want to enjoy myself!#but it's still a lot of money aaaaa #pie says stuff

i am a chronic "i need to watch that"-er, and i'm very lucky but also cursed to be surounded by excellent friends always recommending me excellent things. and i finally want to get off my keyster and actually WATCH them, but i have so many different serieseseseses i'm in the middle of that it's really hard to commit to one. so i made a watchlist of every series i'm either watching, beginning to watch, or wanting to watch. and then i decided to do the same with movies. and books i'm reading/want to read. and decided i should keep track of my art ideas and projects too. and this is great because with the shows especially, i've made a system where i watch one (or more if i have the time) episode of a show a day, and then make my way down and alternate between shows every day. and so far this has been working out great for me. but standing back and looking at my list is just making me say Oh, god. if you're wondering what's Eliza watching/reading/needing to work on, i have excellent news for you:

i'd also like to add that this is all on top of a continuation of last year's resolution in which i have thousands of golden age cartoons listed in a google doc, i roll a random number generator, and let it dictate the GAC i watch for the day. i am drowning

#my Letterboxd is @ducktracy if anyone wants to follow along i don't rate or review everything i watch but i've gotten better #about it in the past year #today was a Princess Tutu day and omg it's so cute #i also used to be an avid SU fan when it was new and kept up with the first 2 seasons or so--i want to go back and watch through it all to #give closure to 12 year old me. crazy it's been 12 years. and plus it'll be fun to watch it in an environment that is not 2016 tumblr SU #discourse. my parents got me The Shining and Carrie for xmas and i've really been enjoying The Shining i gotta add that to my movie list...#also Three Cabs is Three Caballeros. A LOT OF THESE ARE REWATCHES but revisiting for clarity like Ojamajo Doremi for example which ive #probably seen in full 4 times. i've been rewatching Klaus and im excited to rewatch The Nutty Professor and The Odd Couple #very excited to revisit EEnE with the cartooning appreciation i have now..#anyway. there's a lot #AND THERES STILL STUFF MISSING I HAVE TO ADD COW AND CHICKEN AGHHH

Comic Sketch from January 12th, 2025

so being privy to @eleanorose123's Arc-V watchthrough has been fun lmao Though I imagine he'd be far too world-weary to have this kind of naivety after all he's been through, I am still thoroughly entertained by the idea of Saiou initially assuming that all the evils of the world come from external forces possessing people like it was for him, so whenever he sees somebody else doing evil he's like "no... not another one D:" so when he finds out that there are ones that do evil just for the sake of it he uh

well

you know

#happy new year i still have brainrot lmao #Dread Month is now Panic Month #i have so many other doodles and stuff from December that i still need to post but i need to like #comp them in a way that makes any damn sense to actually post it lmao #turns out yugioh characters are extremely easy and fun for me to draw! this is a revelation!!!! even the evil little fuckers like Yuri!!!!!#i just wish i could focus on literally anything else right now!!!!#but i'm procrastinating on things that i don't want to do soooooo yeah rip my brain :')))))#there's funny guys in here now. in perpetuity.#i have an idea for a bonus panel for this so i will add it in a reblog if i draw it #why do i put more effort into these than most anything i've made in two months 🫠#oh well enjoy the sillies once more #art #artists on tumblr #sketch #comic #yugioh

sometimes in the fandom you see some art that is SO beautifully made but goes SO against the grain of how you perceive the drawn character(s) like I want to reblog it so much because it's so visually gorgeous and the artist is amazing and deserves to know this but I'll fucking die before letting that particular interpretation of the character(s) anywhere near my blog
