HIIII TUMBLR!!

I'm back :)

And yes I made this-

I got covid.

I genuinly have no idea where I got it cause I wear a mask constantly and don't even go out to the canteen for recess-

And I am vaccinated. Both times.

But whatever I guess.

Atleats I get to relax at home aha. Even if I had to endure genuine torture at school while I was sick.

There- there was a sports day thing. I had to participate it. Cause I my temperature wasn't high enough-

#I am so tired #I cough every second #I'm left home alone for the next two days #so I gotta take care of myself #my throat is killing me #my nose is stuffy #my body is so sore #I can't move #and I have a major headache #unikitty #unikitty!#unikitty art #unikitty fanart #puppycorn unikitty #unikitty puppycorn #puppycorn

Ugh I messed up and forgot plans with my friend and when she texted me and asked if I was coming I didn’t see it for hours and texted back sorry and I forgot and I’m trying to reschedule plans and she’s being short and has ignored my last text for a day now

And it’s like. I have nothing more to say but it’s annoying that she’s mad at me when I try so hard to be a good friend and I do nice good things for her frequently so it’s just like. Shut up and get over this minor mistake and get yourself together

#my thoughts #she’s not having a good time right now #having a rough time mentally #and I try to help #but there’s nothing I can do #and I make ONE mistake #and she’s mad #she makes mistakes OFTEN #and I forgive and get over it #very fast #never get mad at her #she’s exhausting #I love her and she’s my best friend but I she’s almost always doing bad mentally #and I absorb those feelings if I’m too much around it #so I gotta take care of myself #and I understand that having things doesn’t make mental illness go away #but I wish she would take some time to appreciate what she has #instead of complaining all the time about everything #she’s in a loving relationship with a very nice man (they’re engaged)#his parents are rich and bought them a house so she had her own house at 21 #she graduated college and has a nice job (it’s nursing which actually does suck I know but it pays well and she likes it much of the time)#she has multiple lovely pets #she could afford to travel and wants to but never does!!!! she is the one stopping herself!!!#and then has the audacity to complain about it!!!#but all she ever wants to do is find things about these to complain about #she never acknowledges all the things she is lucky to have #and has achieved that many other people do not #her life has so many good things but she dwells on the past and doesn’t do anything to help herself #she skips her medicine regularly even though SHE KNOWS it is horrible for her mental health #I can’t be worrying about her and taking care of her all the time

sunday, september 17th, 2023 | 49/100 days of productivity

I woke up in a grumpy mood, but I did some yoga and then sat on the balcony and drank some tea while I started a reread of Braiding Sweetgrass. it's one of my favorite books and I really wanted to reread it this year. just reading the first few pages snapped me out of my bad mood <3

today's productivity:

did laundry

cleaned the bathroom

did some prep for a budgeting challenge next month

today's self-care:

I woke up at a reasonable hour

I did yoga!

I have some friends coming over this afternoon to play board games :)

#studyblr #bookblr #op #this morning was so peaceful!! just a self-reminder that I gotta take care of myself now and then lol

Super sexy me is so sexy I accidentally set off the fire alarm while baking pie shells for my pumpkin pie. And now I don't know if I should've even baked them in the first place. But well. Too late now 👍

#speculation nation #i am not a fucking baker so something always goes wrong when i make these pies 😭😭😭#but i am craving my grandma's pumpkin pies... i gotta bake them myself if i want them rn...#see the thing is ive previously bought pre-baked like. graham crusts #but i was like 'that crust sucks lets get a different thing'#so i got tbis dough shit that i put into pans. the box said to bake it. and so i was like ok cool #then as they were in the oven i looked at the pumpkin pie recipe for starting the filling #and then saw that it says 'unbaked shells' and so 😥😥😥😥#but too late now and it worked fine with the graham. and well. the filling is what i care about the most.#the crusts are just an excuse for having pie filling.#anyways i did set off the alarm. i think it's bc the oven was on so hot #the box says 450 which is hotter than i ever usually do. the pies themselves ask for 350 #so well i turned the oven off and i have the microwave fan running #which oh yeah the fucking handle to my microwave fucking broke. it fucking broke.#i think i'll duct tape it or smth lol. microwave itself works fine still. and i dont want people in my apartment.#it's just the bottom part but it sure did just. splinter off. that shit is Broke broke.#and i scared the shit outta my cats And me with that damned alarm. and now i am just waiting.#calming down some. chilling the crusts. soon i will resume making the pie filling.#it's not like it even takes much time i am just. Nervous now.#i wanna let the oven cool off more b4 i have it going for like 45 mins lol #the crusts are kinda ugly. one of them is inflated on the bottom. these pies r going to be disasters.#so long as they still taste good......thats what i care about the most...#maybe my crusts will end up nuclear... if that happens tho ill just eat the filling out of the crust... its fine... ill be fine...#😭😭😭😭😭😭 why is everything so hard

Wait wait wait

You do witchcraft???

That's so cool! I had no idea there were other witches in the TMNT fandom!!!

What kind of witchcraft do you practice?? Personally, I deal mostly with divination, but I'd love to hear more about other people's crafts!

I do! ^^ Though admittedly my practice has been a little bit dormant as of late because I sort of fell out of habit after An Event which was a Bit Disruptive to My Life lol. But I guess I kind of dabble in a bit of everything? I dunno if I could pin myself down to just one kind of practice yet, I still sort of consider myself a Baby Witch. But I really like making little spelljars and casting candle spells and things of the like, and I've been trying to learn tarot for a while now! I also really like making and drawing sigils... For a while part of the joy for me has been just Learning New Things.

^ ft. gecko enclosure and tail lol. BoS and altar not pictured.

#ive got kind of a budget witchcraft thing going on lmao #coz thats kind of my fav part of it? that you can kind of just do it however a little bit so long as you have like #intention and are mindful #all my spelljars are the bottles that vaccines would come in at my old workplace (i used to work at a vet office!)#and since we would mostly just throw them out i could just take them and repurpose them so now ive got a ton #ive got a small collection of crystals coz i like those #my practice is a lot of meditation and grounding and mindfulness and shit like that #blah blah blah tricking myself into taking care of me etc etc #for a while i would. like. every day meditate ground and choose an intention for the day #and pick out some pocket crystals to bring with me that matched that intention #but then my schedule got fucked in eight different ways = 3 = so im working on getting back to it #eventually lol #honestly i love talking abt this stuff and would love to get back into it/meet other ppl who do witchcraft its been a hot second since #like #ive truly indulged...#asks #anon #witchcraft #witchblr #i gotta follow some witchy blogs smh lemme know if yall have any suggestions

#my psych who prescribes my psych meds is a resident and is moving on in a couple of months #i don't even remember the names of them all at this point #this happens over and over and I cannot find a clinic that will put me with someone who intends to stay #thst will also prescribe my adhd meds #and my anxiety meds #and the real kicker is that twice now they have LIED about it and said they would #only to reveal after all the hoop-jumping that oops sorry they didn't really mean it #so it's a risk i have to take any time i leave #and rhen there's the issue of new people almost always wanting to DO something #but instead of talking to me about it they just decide that my meds need overhauling and pressure me to go off shit that works #but that they morally object to i guess #and my psych for some stupid reason has decided she wants bloodwork for my cholesterol and blood sugar stuff and im just like #what hell does THIS presage because if she harasses me about the results or tries to put me on drugs for that #I'll give her a nasty scrap about it #im not interested in those meds at all #and im certainly not messing with my diet since food is the only pleasure i get most days and even that is marginal at best #and removing that would just make me worse #but medpros for the most part really don't give a fuck about that #and so now im afraid - because i do not and cannot trust them - that if i disapprove of the meds they will retaliate somehow #which good luck proving that when management and oversight often don't even care if they course of treatment will HARM you #if it relates to being fat or having bad numbers #they just gotta pathologize!#so yeah im sick of everything and just kind of want to bury myself in a bog forever #i shouldn't have to deal with this

Boy King Seb :D

#thank you to Grace for the idea of making his chivarly collar red bull instead <33333 #he was gonna have both collars but then making that one made me suffer so no not today #this was a lot of fun but also made me suffer. but i keep looking at it and being like AAAHHHHH BABY!!! BABY BOY!!!!!!!#can you believe i tried to do this in one night? i cant #i stopped and came back to it and was like 'no way you could do this in one sitting at 1 am'#this is kinda the ascended form of that very first sketch i made for this au! concentrated boy king sebby!!!#i say to myself i need to take a break from drawing complicated things but youll prob see a nando version of this in less than a week ;;;#okay about the drawing(i wrote good tags and then tumblr deleted them so these are a bit inferior AGH):#this is typical pouty seb but is also referenced off a specific pic from AD 2009(beloved)#its very important to me how emotionally open Seb is. im not sure the specific context of this. maybe after a triumph?#but instead of being that typical stoic serious detached kind of ruler; i like him being openly emotional(think AD 2010)#its important as well for his dichotomy with nando and how they choose to portray themselves #seb is very assured in himself and his rule vs. nando who is more insecure and bitter about his #so nando takes strides to portray himself in that more stoic calculating way bcs he feels like it helps him legitimize himself better #whereas seb has absolutely no care for outward public image and shows how he feels and is loved for it(nando hates it but loves it)#not that nando cant be fun and whimsical!! but to me he always seems a bit more mysterious; like i can never tell his true thoughts tbh #anyways i feel like ill finish 10 more drawings before i end up posting the lore pt 2 LMAO #its just a lot harder to organize and layout compared to part 1 which was just an explanation #pt2 would be a mix of more world building/characterization/anecdotes ive talked about with mutuals(LOVE YOU GUYS!!!)#i have a *lot* of ideas (gotta whip out my notes app every once in a while to write down stuff abt it) just hard to put into a coherent pos #sebastian vettel #f1 #formula 1 #f1 art #formula 1 art #f1 fanart #formula 1 fanart #catie.art.#*ill prob make a process post later if anyone is curious!! its fun to write abt my process and influences and such #boy king au

Keep seeing so many “hot takes” about Zukka in particular that basically boil down to “this ship isn’t logical because the characters don’t interact enough” and all I gotta say is…

Shipping has nothing to do with canonical interactions.

If you are limiting ships to “do these characters interact a lot” then fella, I gotta say, you are invalidating so many ships and limiting your imagination to embarrassing extents.

It’s fine if you don’t like a ship. It’s fine if you don’t get a ship. Clearly a ship you aren’t interest in isn’t for you.

But no ship is invalid just because there isn’t much or any interaction between the characters.

#zukka #but this goes for any ships really #lack of much interaction doesn’t invalidate a ship #Zuko and Yue don’t really ever interact but that’s a great ship!!#Azula never meets Yue but I’ve seen it shipped and it’s done well!!#why do you care so much about ships you don’t like and invalidate them in spaces meant for everyone?#you’re just bringing in negative vibes and it’s a shit take anyway #live and let ship #ask a friend in a private if you gotta grouse #feel free to also ask in an open way like ‘why do you guys ship this’ if you want stranger’s opinions #but don’t be like ‘this ship doesn’t make sense and you’re grasping’ when shipping is about transformation #like honestly #not naming any names or touching those posts myself because I don’t like stirring shit #but it’s honestly so ridiculous to shit talk ships #venting all my frustrations with fandom right now #kids these days don’t realize you can ship characters who have no connection whatsoever #or characters with themselves #or characters from different canons and media #and it’s all still valid even if it’s not for you #because your tastes will never completely coincide with someone else’s #just accept that you don’t like a ship shrug it off and move on to what you do like #I swear you will be so much happier and leave fandom a much happier place if you do #it’s all about finding things you like and staying in your own lane

Commission for @sophronns

[SLAMS HANDS ON TABLE] MAN I LOVE EXPRESSION CHALLENGES!

Oooooh I got a lovely batch of commissions once again and I couldn’t be happier!~ Had to take a moment to catch my breath after responding to so many wonderful people and getting WIPs done for most of them, so that I may settle in for the long haul, flipping between commissions, my own projects and resting in attempt for a healthy work life balance! Thank you to all who signal boosted by reblogging, it means a lot to me yah’ll think price sheets worth passing around~ 😊💖

#Commission #Expression challenge #Kennys commissions #others ocs #OKKennymay #Sophronns #Trying to get into the habit of posting more regularly #I gotta tell myself it doesn't have to be a whole pile of things everytime esp 'cause that drains the heck outta me and then I vanish again #Nor just because I post something does it mean people will be angry with me just because I was online but didn't respond to them yet #and if they do well clearly theyre not very nice #just remember how many have been so patient and welcoming- just happy to see me when i'm able to appear that's what I need to remember #So many affirming voices telling me it's okay to slow down and take it at my own pace brings me such peace to my worrisome mind #Kenny out here spilling his guts in the tags again for those who care to listen #Thank you for reading

an uncle nina check in <3

hi team! thanks for sticking around! i know my blog isn't always the most exciting and enriching place in the world in terms of content, but i am very /content/ to have you all here. <3333

i promise, oddly enough, i have A TON of inspiration and ideas for all my weird styles ( if you're curious about anything please lmk! i've been trying to flesh out my aus out lately ), i've just been in a major bummer depression era lately, so it's hard for me to get my asks done and i'm having a hard time committing to finishing my writing. :<

i think it's because of stress and my bipolar, but i am trying to get back on the horse! ( are we all laughing at the idea of me trying to get on a horse? i'd start crying help city girl fail moment for me ) yeehaw!

and while, unfortunately due to the instability ( fabulous legendary iconery ) of my pretty girl popstar personality, i do not know whether i will be answering almost no questions or one million, regardless of that, i just wanted to let you know, i'm still here, still kicking my feet, twirling my hair, cooking...i'm just really trying not to force myself to put out anything i don't like...and only do what makes me truly happy.

however, nothing, my dear sweet e-darlings...

makes me happier than coming home to all of you. <333

so thank you for flooding even the darkest corners of my life with bright light, supporting my phantom fics and being wonderful,

uncle nina xx

I think if someone told me I was doing a good job, and I genuinely believed that they meant it, I would simply Pass Out

#the duality of fran #no this doesnt say anything abt me #im a chronically depressed eldest daughter with no self esteem and hypermoral ocd ofc i have a praise kink #gentle touch??? kind words that im capable of belieivng??? in THIS economy???#oh bother. gotta smack myself into refocusing. duty and obligation and goodness.#its fundamentally not about me!!!#thara says. i follow my calling. and that is what he uses to keep himself going #i just. i wish i knew what my purpose was. to be used up. ultimately. but how. i need specifics. directions #im very stubborn but im very good at taking orders. i can be good i promise #i am not so secretly a child desperate to be good and useful because that is safe and valued and cared for #everything costs something. its about owing and earning. when its me. because its me

i finally bit the bullet and bought a nice semi-expensive silk bonnet to replace my crappy satin one ($8 vs $3 so not a huge difference but a noticeable one) and. omg. I just tried it on since I just got home from the store and it's soooo comfortable I may never take it off

#i havent been takimg care of my hair lately because of depression so i got the bonnet and a hair mask to try and jumpstart #myself into taking care of it again #mb my curls will even come back? who knows who knows #this is the longest and healthiest my hair has been in a long time (despite the neglect) and i wanna keep it that way so i gotta get serious
