#in relation to my last post

just thinking about the line where zoro was like ‘if you’re sending my captain to hell then I guess that’s where I’m going too’ / later declaring himself king of it. he really said ‘til death do us part isn’t good enough I’m following that man anywhere. and I mean ANYWHERE.’

   I'm gonna get really real here for a minute because I understand there's a level of privilege in the statement I made in my last reblogged post,  and it's new for me. 

CW: Homelessness, Abuse, Trauma

    I have spent the entirety of my adult life struggling to make ends meet.   First World Problems memes used to piss me off because I live in a first-world country, and had not once been able to even think about being in a position where experiencing this kind of issue was remotely possible.   My experience had taught me that living in my particular FWC was to avoid Healthcare,  fight to find any job at all (I ended up going into SW for more than 10 years) and to wonder every damn day if I was gonna find myself homeless again at the end of the week.

    To this day, my parents will not accept the role they played in this when my mother allowed my grandmother to control our family to the extent she did- she forced my Mom to send my sister away multiple times growing up or kick us all out,  regularly beat my sister and I then gaslit us about it, and later kicked me out regularly and lied to my Mom about it saying I had ran away.

   There was years of denial after that I was homeless as a teenager and continued to be homeless until I was almost in my 30's because I had some form of a roof over my head, but I had no address and often no phone, couch surfed at friends while attempting to finish high school, and then later bounced around from motel to motel for years.

    To top it off, I spent the majority of those years as an adult in relationships with people who treated me like garbage and had actually drug me back down to that point and worse-  There's a reason I will forever be against people who say that an age gap of 4+ years is no longer a problem when someone is in their 20s.  There is mountains of experiences that happen during that time that shape a person,  and my experience has been that when there is even that may of an age gap there will always be a predatory power imbalance in that relationship.

    It has taken decades for me to get to a point in my life where I can say some first World shit like "Yep, definitely getting another Switch because I don't want to delete my current island but I'm dying for another aesthetic."

    It has taken years of therapy to get to this point, to see my self-worth, and to not accept the types of relationships I accepted.  Years to get any sort of diagnosis for how my brain works and to find out that I can never get a full diagnosis because of the amount of trauma I experienced from a young age and through the entirety of my developmental years makes it hard to tell where the ADHD and Autism ends and the PTSD begins, as if those aren't generally intrinsically linked for so many people.  Years to attain any level of stability in any sense.

So yes, I understand the mountains of privilege in that statement- and I have fought and bled and nearly died to survive long enough that saying it was even possible. I understand that there are a million and one ways I could spend $300 that would help other people- but I am learning that it is okay to choose me, and this is huge progress that I would consider spending that kind of money on myself, ever.

I have the rest of my life to help other people who are in the shoes I left behind.

I think it’s funny to draw wizarding families in victorian clothing and some cloaks bc they don’t know about muggles’ 70s swag. those fellas do NOT know how to dress

i dont know how else to put this but to approach books (or any media, really) solely for the sake of relatability is genuinely incredibly heartbreaking......to have such little (or such unwilling) imaginative scope that you cannot stretch yourself, even marginally, in a different direction to what you’ve known or are used to knowing when the very POINT of stories is to transport you somewhere else, into someone else, so you can do just that........when fran lebowiz said a book “is supposed to be a door!” and george saunders said good prose “is like empathy training wheels” they were right!!! they were so so so SO absolutely entirely right!!!!!

[buttercupshands]

So.

Act 5, huh?

Oh, and that.

"You can start breakdown now."

Finished the game couple of days ago and had some thoughts I needed to process a little. Like. Yes.

So anyway I actually didn't plan this and just wanted to redraw some sprites to just make sure I understand how to draw Siffrin correctly (still working on that!)

What did I learn from this? How fun it it to draw on a canvas that literally doesn't let you draw with colors without some layer cheating when necessary. Never tried it.

The beans. Sleeping beans.

Basically what happens when you want to sleep AND draw. Draw characters sleeping on your behalf.

Doesn't help, but at least it's cute.

I have no idea what was going on in my mind as I drew this. Feels like a fever dream of 'I want to sleep' at 4 am and 'Hm...' of thinking random things

Also that phone craft sign. Still too funny to imagine. I had to.

Lando about collaborating with Herend Porcelain for his 2024 Hungarian GP helmet

“To race in this helmet is very special, because there hasn't been many occasions when I made a helmet with someone, especially not with a brand like Herend that's been making pretty incredible things like this for a long time. It's really special to me. The fact that I can race with this hopeful means that I'll drive faster thanks to it. Last year we were close to winning, we finished second, so hopefully this time I can make a step forward, and it'd be nice if I could not only bring home this helmet but a new Herend trophy, too.”
