reminding myself on this busy morning that i also have dreams of taking piano lessons & singing lessons & also honing my writing skills & absorbing as many books as i used to when i was a kid & at the very least taking up cute tennis dates & dabbling into art & just becoming an artistic generalist. also reminding myself that there are pre-meds out there who managed to pursue something they’re passionate in (some are even professional athletes) & still excelled in medicine & if they can do it so can I

💥💥💥 Hello KaalaaPocket nation (only me I think). Here are some extra stuff!!!

The pose is based on René Gruau’s Le tango (1990). + Untextured version!!!

The lyrics are from Falling Starlight and Moonlight, it's from the Metallic Rouge anime OST!!!

That song got me thinking of Kaalaa Baunaa and only Kaalaa Baunaa………. I kept listening to that and some lounge-y Utena OST while drawing this <3

BPD culture is feeling like violets are growing from your knees, like clovers are sprouting in your lungs, like dandelions are blooming around your nails. i want to be pretty, and nice, and smart and kind and funny and thoughtful and worthwhile and enough! but i’m just a weed!

i’m just a weed

i had a vision last night whilst I was sleeping where I drew a unrelated TMBG drawing and then the johns harassed me and called me a smelly poo poo head. they said it sucked.

Can you please help tell me wwhat this vision means and how it will effect me within the far future. th ejohns are scayr:(

this is a frightening dream. It worries me.

this dream means that the Johns really want to hurt you, like you've done something in the past that harms their reputation or insults their 'music'. Since you put down their music, they are trying to put down your artwork and lower your confidence enough where you will enjoy their music

there may be deeper psychological issues at play. TMBG is known to make people act really crazy and weird. I suggest going to a doctor who specializes in mental disorders and they can give you medicine that will make sleeping less disturbing and when sleep is less disturbing you will be less vulnerable to the Johns' evil psychic blast attacks

I find it really fun how there are big challenges/silly build stuff in the sims community and while the big YouTubers do it fun, it's been really nice to find smaller channels who also do the same stuff in different ways

sometimes when you're in a fandom for a piece of media that is very much aimed at children, you just have to repeat to yourself this is for kids, this is for kids, this is for kids, this fandom is comprised mostly of kids, kids interpret media differently, kids are gonna have bad opinions about things, kids don't have fully developed media literacy yet, this is for kids, THIS IS FOR KIDS

Can I ask you something? I'm making a modern au fanfic and I was thinking what Athanasia would study / work and I can't think of anything. I know she likes to study, so I think it would be easy for Athy to choose one of these majors where people studies a lot (medicine, law, engineering...) but I don't know which of them best suits her personality.

I'm biased because I'm a law graduate, but hear me out, I think law really fits Athy. It's a super academically intensive career, which sounds like something she would be into. It's also very associated with power (and I guess to some extent with ruling, lots of people in positions of power are lawyers, including heads of state), which I think is the best translation of the kind of duties she fulfills as crown princess without making her literally modern royalty (I like fictional and historical royal figures, modern ones... not so much lol). Also, Athy genuinely is someone who cares a lot about things like justice and fairness, so I can see her being interested in that romantic idea of law that most first year students have (before discovering the hell they got themselves into /j). And this might be just me, but when Athy talked back to Anastasius in the empress arc, and then exposed his real colors to the nobles, that sounded just like the closing arguments of a really good prosecutor.
