Hey everyone! this is where the zebra is currently with the design.

It has knee braces!! I will most probably be drawing the zebra usually with them on, but it’s no requirement, for example if anyone else wants to draw the zebra :-]. I always like to make sure an animal design has official colors underneath any clothing and accessory anyway. I think this will be final! thank you everyone for your feedback!

As a reminder, aside from why the zebra was requested for this flag, this is also just a zebra with the disability pride flag on it. It’s just a deisgn to fit the flag, with input from other disabled people in our community. It doesn’t mean other animals can’t have designs with these colors, too! I don’t mean this design to be the only mascot for all disabled people. It’s just a silly series i do of pride animals, and at the time, during disability pride month, I wanted to see what everyone wanted me to start off with for this flag!

the goal with my pride animals is to take requests and make people feel happy and seen.. that’s all <:-)

Behold. My first favorite fellas of TMA. I am. Unwell.

Here's my initial designs for them [up to change ykyk], my own thoughts on what entities they'd be aligned with (or victims of), and some signature stuff with their names. Fun.

Graham Folger. The man himself. What a dude who's both so regular and so. So not. Let's go antisocial paper-eater pulling the avatar of Death incarnate. What are you. [The Eye, The Web, The Stranger]

Sebastian Adekoya. I'm microwaving him you have no idea. I'm prying him apart and reforming him with character study and creative writing. Librarian AU. I will dissect him and Jared, you. Have no. Idea. I hold his design close to me btw. Very proud. [The Eye, The Flesh]

Martin Blackwood. Yknow, i told myself I wasn't going to get attached to any Main Cast folk. Let lo and behold. Way too high a standard really. I love him. There's so much too him. He's petty and soft and caring and so, so angry. He's so real for everything idec. I'm putting him into clouds. [The Lonely, The Web, The Eye]

Needless to say, TMA has become an awful [/pos] brainrot hyperfixation for me and there will be many more posts, thank you.

I think my favorite thing about doing ginger red hair instead of cherry red hair is: lying to people about it

It's August, so I wanted to start posting all the ko-fi commissions that I've done since last summer that have been sitting in my drafts.

I started on an anthology comic this time last year that is now in the coloring stage and that's been a very, very time consuming project; I was asked not to share details until artist announcements were made, so I've been vague about it the entire time (still waiting…) Also around the same time, I got several big batch orders (I'm still working on the last batch, but I won't be uploading it here to avoid spoilers for the project) so everything took more and more time…

Thank you everyone for supporting me and waiting patiently!

A quickie to test out a a few brushes ⭐️

Tried to get a hang of a more semi realistic skin rendering. Its a bit of a mess but I kinda like how it turned out

Got inspired by a few retro futurism designs and ngl its quite fun to draw. Might make a few more similar things

This has been hands down one of the most emotionally challenging years of my life. So much change and uncertainty has happened in such a small amount of time. Learning to trust myself and rely on myself to put in the work I need not only career wise but personally and interpersonally has been beyond challenging. My skin feels tight just trying to write this out as a form of processing.

I hit that point in therapy where my therapist starts pushing back to help me analyze my own part in the negative cycles that I’ve perpetuated out of trauma and survival mode. I’ve been fluctuating between a state of self hatred and genuine self love. Grasping for my true identity and more self awareness while learning to unmask and recognizing my strengths and weaknesses. All while still making mistakes, failing, hurting others and myself but also learning to allow others to help me and make space for me just as I am.

I a opened myself up and attached myself to people during a time I should have been alone and in the process confused myself and my heart while denying myself a time to process my own reality. My co dependency put me in a heightened emotional state of all or nothing in every aspect of my life and I made no room for logic or critical thinking. I ultimately hurt people and myself and as much regret as I have I’m still grateful it allowed me to recognize a wound in me that I needed to heal. A hole inside that no person nor amount of love, lust or friendship could fill.

I’ve begun to allow myself to dream again, not daydreams and fantasies but truly dream of what I can create for my future with or without a partner. Finding confidence in myself id thought I’d never find again. Pushing myself in ways I’d always been too scared of and in doing so I’ve been able to experience myself as limitless and capable.

The people in my life experienced and witnessed the worst of me this year but also moments of me at my best and I’m so grateful for those who stuck around as well as for those who didn’t. I’m grateful for being challenged and corrected as much as I’m grateful for being loved and listened to. As June approaches I reflect back on the last 12 months with a bitter sweet appreciation. All that was, all that couldn’t be and all there is now. I am still filled with love and hope but I’ve learned to add the lesson of acceptance to the mix and it lifts the weight enough for me to continue forward.

Life is still filled with temptation and pressures to return to a way of life that was so harmful and unhealthy for me and it would be easy to do so but I’m confident in the changes I’ve enacted and I am stronger than ever and genuinely exited for my future and proud of myself for everything and in spite of everything.

chatgpt reminds me soooo much of the old cellphone arguments

like yea, telling teenagers that cellphones are going to ruin their brains sounds really fucking dumb when the screen isnt bigger than your finger and all it can do is call and text real other people and ringtones cost money and dont even DARE to open the internet 'cause you'll get charged an arm and a leg

BUT NOW THAT ITS ACTUALLY A PROBLEM AND ACTUALLY WORTH DISCUSSING, PPL THINK ITS THE SAME PHENOMENON AND ITS LIKE no!!! you fool!!!! the argument was too early!!! THESE are the children that need the cellphone scare of the 2000s!!!
