A reminder to all my lovely fellow writers: progress is progress, even when it isn't. Writing four thousand words in a session is progress. Writing a hundred words in a session is progress. Removing an entire scene because it doesn't flow well is progress. Rethinking your plan for the plot in order to get unstuck is progress. Development looks different for every writer and every story.
Outdoor cats kill over 2 BILLION birds every year! Here's some illustrations I did for National Audubon Society of a few catios on the market. A great way to keep cats happy, and birds alive!
The walled garden at Gordon Castle, Scotland, has used Allium fistulosum (Welsh onion, bunching onion, long green onion, Japanese bunching onion, onion-leek, stone leek) as an edging plant. The leaves of this decorative 'cut and come again' onion can be used in a similar way to chives (although their flavour is stronger) while the flower shoots (which are not as pungent as onions) can be added to salads.
You're not a failure. You're not an awful person. You're not so far behind that everything will fall apart. It's just Wednesday. You're ok. Life isn't a race. Just sit for a minute and be alive.
Just a heads up, I might open commissions soon since I'll need extra budget for the next month! I know I still have a backlog of ko-fi doodles I need to work on but I'll try my best to do them alongside the comms 😤💪💪💪
i don't know maybe it's the translation i read but i guess i always thought it was made fairly clear that shuro never legitimately hated laios so much as he resented him for being able to be the way he was. much like laios (albeit for very different reasons) shuro's affect is frequently commented on by others to be strange and at a mismatch with the prevailing culture around him, being very reticent to the point of the part where he tells the girl he likes that he likes her being when he Proposed. quite a few characters say something to this effect! shuro was raised in formality and stoicism and i think has a tendency towards not rocking the boat even besides that, and now here's this guy who breaks every one of his rules and he makes it look so easy. it's like a two-pronged frustration of "doesn't this guy understand that you can't just do that" and "fuck, what would it feel like to be able to do that." of course he gets mad! it's frustration, but it's also envy.
While we’re at it, I’m seeing waaay too many of you on here get comfortable claiming that because an artist makes fucked up/problematic art, it is a reflection of their values/character.
Reminder that those are two separate things that can correlate, but aren’t necessarily connected.
