My third driving lesson today and well it’s not going so well…
#pre lesson#I was asking like a lot of people how good they were after doing 3 lessons#because I feel like I’m just really bad#but a lot of people were reassuring me that it’s fine#so anyway doing my lesson#everything is fine#until we have to do a right turn downhill#but I go on the curb#and then queue breakdown#like I’m sat there trying not to combust in front of this dude and he’s like you alright#and I’m like y 💧e💧s#so he drives for a bit#then I re do the turn it’s a lot better than last time#like my issue is I’m a bit anxious to use speed#so I say that to him and he’s like okay that’s fine don’t put as much speed#then a couple minutes later he’s like increase the speed#and I’m like……#I had to stop a lot and take breaks#which I felt really bad about#but I just get really anxious when there’s loads of obstructions and there are cars coming#I just hate that driving lesson have been a source of anxiety#like I shouldn’t be this anxious/nervous about them because it’s just a lesson#the urge to quit is really strong 😭😭#but number 1 this is a really valuable skill to learn#and number 2 winners never quit and quitters never win#which is a quote by vince lombardi#and might be like in a barbie song#gatherrambles#gatherbabblesaboutnonsensicalstuff

playing around w slightly different hair renders
#my art#jujutsu kaisen#jjk#jjk fanart#jujutsu kaisen fanart#jjk art#yuji itadori#megumi fushiguro#itafushi#fushiita#yuuji#megumi#cries megumi fought tooth n nail..... i refused 2 flip the canvas tho >:(#i vastly prefer drawing him facing right bc fr some reason it makes his hair look better silhouette-wise#so having him face left is alr a Challenge#but also having him slightly look down (difficult angle + changes the silhouette) had me bashing my head in2 th TABLE#same thing happened earlier this month w gardening megu middle pose . i did not learn my lesson#but even worse w this one yuuji's head is blocking th main pointy part tht basically carries the entirety of the shape language#u can imagine my distress i am sure#anyway th render made me a lot happier with it thank god. colours hard carry bless <3333#i didn't plan on making it a full sheet but i needed 2 remind myself that im good at drawing megumi#so i threw in solos of each of them n tried slightly different render flavours#idk how Different all of them look visually but th process fr each ws Very different so i am satisfied#fight aside this ws useful i think! got 2 break out some Clunkier chalks n dust off a few of my smoother blended brushes#think i picked up some things i can keep also !! which ws. u kno. the Goal#tbh every time i do art studies i feel like i am kirby#one time i got called an art ditto by one of my fav artist mutuals when i did a style challenge#SUCH high praise from her it lives in my mind i take it out on days when i feel like trash#it doesnt Sound good when u say u r good at copying but real talk it is such a good skill i am very happy 2 have it in my arsenal

I find it fascinating how every single one of my health issues can be mistaken for laziness
#tw ableism#->#'ugh why doesn't she pay attention to classes?? lazy' -> I'm ADHD/2e. your lesson isn't interesting enough.#'why does your table have wheels? why do you have to work from your bed? that's clearly an excuse to be able to lay down wnvr you want'->#there's something unidentified happening with my back that makes me unable to sit straight for long periods of time and it hurts LIKE HELL.#'why did you only get up at noon? that's such a lazy behavior' -> my circadian rhythm is nocturnal. I'm only truly awake past midnight and+#+it has been like that since the day i was born. mom had to stay up with baby me until 3am#tw fatphobia#->->#'why are you so fat? are you eating healthy? are you going to the gym? smaller portions girrrrllllll' ->#first of all go to hell. but anyway i actively enjoy eating healthy food#i love salads.#and yes i go to the gym regularly. almost every day.#but i have a very fun thing called PCOS and it messes up with my hormones in ways no professional could help me yet 👍#but again. go to hell.#nonsims#non sims

the new ride kamens character is jo, and he's... blood stark and night rogue? he's got the blood stark visor and color, but he's got bat wings which is definitely night rogue, not what i would've expected, i would've thought we'd get evol and kr rogue first as separate characters, but hey, dan kuroto and blood stark are some of my top faves of all time villains, so i'm not complaining
heck YES look at this steam-powered and yet somehow cyberpunky batman. he's awesome! 🦇 and honestly given that the popular guess for him was Night Rogue, I think it's pretty funny that he ended up being (mostly) the other Faust guy (I admit I usually associate him with the Evol form and...kind of forgot about Blood Stalk a little bit. :')
augh I am so BEHIND on drawing the Wisdom Thinks guys, hold on let me fix this
also I really hope they get way into the nitty-gritty of them running the lounge. nothing is funnier to me than Dramatic Action Superheroes having to take time out of their day to balance their business ledger and figure out the employee rotation for the week and stress about scheduling their upcoming food safety inspection. it's great.
#art#ride kamens#(sorry! the twst update kinda took over my brain a little whoops)#i'm still in shock about soun being zangetsu. i was SO convinced his shoulder-thing was gaim's big orange slice...#i mean i guess the melonman isn't THAT far off but it still kinda rocked me#i should have learned my lesson by now about thinking i know who anyone's going to be#my hubris!#anyway so wisdom thinks huh#(eyes the character profiles) you know they haven't said the words 'host club' but...do you think...#i mean probably not. but DO YOU THINK...#woooo only one boy left to be revealed!#who's it gonna be who's it gonna be

#peterick#pete wentz#patrick stump#fall out boy#where is your boy#storm gifs#commentary time#that was the ONLY vid i could find for 2008 lol#as far as i can tell they did not do this prior to 2007#latest vid i found of them not doing it was a show from oct 2006#earliest vid i found of them doing it was a show from sep 2007#they played the song ONCE in 2019 and i found ONE vid of it#kinda wish i'd started the 2013 gif later and ended it later bc the way pete just stares after patrick really gets me#but alas i'm too lazy to redo it so just watch the vid#also not to be biased but the way patrick looks intensely at pete in the gif from my show is SO good#WHY did i decide to do every year. however it is too late for regrets#anyway they make me smile to look at so it's fine#“more than an hour” gifs next? maybe? but prob only 4-6 bc i've learned my damn lesson

forgive me if you've been asked this before or if its annoying, but how did you learn to use colored pencils like that? your art is so special to me.
ty :) I took an art class for a few years where our teacher had us buy prismacolor pencils as one of the art supplies and had us use them kinda like paints, pressing down hard right away and blending the colors together. its not how youre supposed to use them she was just trying to teach us to use color and ig this was more to the point. I picked them up again years after i stopped going to that class just bc they were there and i wanted to play around w them a bit and ended up actually enjoying it when doing it on my own terms lol
#it was a weird class#it was just this russian lady doing private lessons in her house that my mom learned about somehow#I did NOT like those classes all we did was still life and they were hours long which is esp rough when im in high school and busy#and she wanted us to stand while working the whole time bc tradition i guess?#she did allow me to work sitting but thought i was lazy for it. idk dude i dont want to exhaust myself fast for no reason#standing is a lot more tiring than walking#i def did still benefit from those classes just from learning to accurately draw from life#did not like the teacher tho#on one hand shed paid for the art supplies for kids whos families were too poor to (and these are nice expensive supplies)#which is very nice#but on the other she was very homophobic and open about it#like when they legalized gay marriage she went on a rant about how horrible it is that they can adopt kids now#and also kind of racist#she was telling me how she got blocked from a facebook group bc she made a post asking if she could speak to a white person#and she didnt realize she was posting that publicly she thought it was a private message to the group owner#im honestly still not sure i heard/understood her correctly bc it was so bizzare and the only time i ever remember her being racist#she talked abt it like she genuienly was unaware it was racist#she described it as a misunderstanding bc she accidentally posted it publicly instead of privately#like it wouldnt have been racist to ask that at all#also one time she talked about how she saw demons in her home once#also she doesnt vaccinate her kids bc of microchips#she was like a walking russian stereotype lol#anyway heres some ink the artist lore

okay no see the thing that made me really, really sad about hinata and the thing that made me really, really root for him and love him and want to see him win it all was how, like, people kept DENYING him. and i'm not talking about spectators in the stands going "omg he's so short haha, can he really do anything?" i'm talking about how his own team and how everyone who knew them in some way - as much as i love them - could never really separate him from kageyama. they were the freak quick duo, karasuno's number nine and number ten. they were amazing! so brilliant, the two of them. and hinata thought it was a way out, at first. he thought it was a way over the summit. he thought it was the key to being someone better.
but a key goes both ways, you know. it can lock you up just as much as it can set you free.
and hinata had to be so, so frustrated. everyone was finding ways to move forward except him. everyone expected him to stay stuck. and you could argue that that's not entirely true, sure, that he was always training, always trying to catch up, and they encouraged that. but nobody ever expected him to be more. nobody ever expected him to go beyond what he had with kageyama - they all thought that was enough for hinata. they thought he was fine like that because it worked for the rest of them. they underestimated how much he wanted to be capable. they didn't get how much he wanted to stand on his own two feet.
and that wasn't fair to hinata! it wasn't fair that hinata, who loved to play and loved the game and loved volleyball so so much, was the only one being left behind! he wanted to change that but nobody was trying with him!!! so of course he got impatient!! of course he was reckless!!! of course he was carving his own opportunities!!! there was no way forward otherwise!!! because if we take a minute to think about how training would have gone while kageyama was at tokyo, let's be honest — it probably wouldn't have gone well. nobody else can do with hinata what kageyama could do with him. hinata would have been held back. he would have felt useless. practicing serves and receives was stuff he was already doing constantly before that, and it wasn't teaching him anything. yeah hinata was a little bit selfish and a little bit shameless but being so finally got him somewhere!!
all hinata ever wanted to do was fly, even if it meant straying from the flock to do so
#anyways lesson learned: when you've exhausted all other options then just fucking go for it#what's the worst that could happen#you either get shit done or you don't#ball boy arc is sooooo important and i hate when ppl treat it like hinata was just being stupid#he was FED UP!!!#washijo sure as hell wasn't going to let him prove anything so he had to do it himself#and hinata actually showed a LOT of restraint for how he actually is imo#he accepted washijo's decision so easily. i think he knew in a way. that he wouldn't have been accepted#but he had to try SOMETHING bc he wasn't getting anywhere with everyone else!!!!#and my heart breaks whenever i think about taking suga taking kageyama's part in the early part of the story#about them not needing to try anything new or do anything risky so close to the tournament#hinata was so fucking shackled and that's why brazil was so good for him#it gave him a chance to grow into himself#ALSO EVERYONE KEEPS ACTING SURPRISED WHEN HE GETS BETTER AND BETTER WHEN THAT'S ALL HE EVER WANTED HELLO#hinata shouyou#haikyuu#haikyuu!!#haikyuu meta#sou says stuff

Burnt out
#initially this was meant to be something else entirely#but i wasn't really liking how it was going so I scrapped the idea and opted out for something a bit more personal#ive been really suffering from burn out for the last few years and just barely keeping my head above water#there are times where i seriously feel like ive failed in every aspect of my career#like if i were good enough i wouldn't have burnt out#i love my job and i love my trade i love every skill ive gain up until this point#but its been hard not to take it personally when all the effort you've put into honing those skills#are abused or exploited#life is difficult enough already and and time is fleeting#taking time for yourself is above all the most important thing you can do to help your work flourish#taking a break isn't failure#its health#we aren't machines despite our industries treating us as such#just waiting and hoping that itll pay off#ive certainly learned my lesson#and im looking forward to brighter horizons#and healthier more respectful ones#ill be okay ive learned how to love my art in my personal time again#but i certainly need to let my mind rest and my body to recover#these tags are lengthy anyways#unionize and dont work for nothing from large companies#be gay do drugs love your friends make art for yourself too#my art#scuttles out of here#i hope these long ass images actually show up in full resolution#i did draw them fucking TOLL as hell

just found out that one of dr ratio’s idles is an apple falling on his head whilst he is deep in contemplation.
i know this is a jab at isaac newton and now he discovered gravity, but may i just raise:
since dr ratio is greco-roman inspired, an apple being thrown at someone in Ancient Greece is also a proposal or declaration of love. so the apple that fell on his head was actually because of me, not isaac newton, thank you and have a blessed day.
#i learnt this in my Latin class#fun fact i took latin and maybe one lesson of Ancient Greek#i do not remember anything from latin all you need to know is that cicero means chickpea#so there was an iconic roman politician fully named Cicero in the senate#anyways#earfsmercury

caffeine brain posting but my spn rewatch has reminded me of just how incorrect the fanon version of jack is and once again i gotta ask how did y’all get “literal toddler who’s scared of horror movies” and strawberry cow white boy from a guy who’s obsessed with zombies and hunting and kills people as a gesture of love. Where did we go wrong as a species
#he hotboxed Michael for Mary and all his apocalypse world besties#he torched Nick for Sam……he straight up Beheaded Noah the gorgon for cas lmao#the day spn fans can be normal about a character who’s literally just autistic is the day I can die happy#cal.txt#spn#jack kline#spn fandom#fanon vs canon#like why are y’all so insistent on making him lame#anyways goodnight it’s 5am#i do not learn my lesson from black tea at 11pm

Seventh Seraph Officer's Revolver :: Damien-14
Damien's treasured hand cannon, dragged all the way from his days of the flesh working (voluntarily) as a security man at Braytech Exoscience. This thing's ruined a lot of people's lives, but it was hard earned, and a relic of some bad decisions he won't quite let go of.
The Bouquet is not a pleasant one:
Narcissus - Egotism
Marigolds - death, pain of loss & remembrance
Anemone - Abandonment & the forsaken
Scabiosa - "I have lost all"
#destiny 2#destiny#destiny the game#makodraws#destiny weapon#weapon portrait#flower language#my oc#damien-14#I love doing these gun portraits with the flowers so damn much ya'll#very likely there'll be more#Hey so Damien's nicer than he wants you to believe#nowadays anyway#trauma and some hard lessons and a lot of abuse will sometimes beat the asshole out of an asshole let's just say that#ya'll know me I put them in the jar and shake REAL hard

My personal head canon is that Richie is the type of fuck who does really well in school without putting in literally any effort and Eddie is the type of kid who tries so so so hard to get good grades but he's like. A b or c student at best. He fucking hates Richie for this.
#simetimes richie tutors eddie but more often than not it just ends up pissing eds off more#bc richie is HORRIBLE at explaining things since he doesnt really#understand what exactly the issue is. like he'll sort of just gloss over parts bc hes like “well duh this is obvious” but its rly not to a#lot of people. he just doesnt get it.#furthermore richie hasnt done a single homework assignment since 4th grade the latest and at this point his teachers have given up#theyre just glad he actually understands the lessons so they mostly let it slide#his guidance counselor on the other hand. that poor bastard. this dude tries sooooo hard to get richie to put LITERALLY ANY EFFORT in and he#flat out refuses to. hes like “richie u could probably be the fucking valedictorian if u actually tried” and richie shrugs and goes “eh i#dont want to give a speech“ like BITCH#<-btw all of this is projection from me. im richie hi. it fort of ruined my ability to train other people at anything ever.#and my ability to study i would have failed miserably had i tried college bc my ass would NOT be doing homework or studying#i would have dropped out sooooo quick lol#anyway. done now have this#Richie Tozier#Eddie Kaspbrak#IT 1986#IT Stephen King#spam brain

reminder to master chef twst jp players that:
the 20 minute ingredient gathering is the most efficient one, but find the one that matches your schedule
focus on getting sugar, eggs and fruits because they're pretty popular ingredients
use low/medium ingredients to raise skill level, only use high quality ingredients when the recipe is above 50%
try focusing on one recipe at a time
when you're done with the event, use up the rest of your ingredients for 100%, then do the recipes with the fewest ingredients
when nothing else can be made, just keep making black dishes to earn what medals you can
i hope these tips help!!
#^ tips i learnt from strategy guides and personal experience hehe#i didn't realise 20 mins was the most efficient and i kept doing 360 mins 😯😵💫#also the idea of using up all my ingredients to make black dishes never crossed my mind??? so many ingredients wasted😭😭😭#anyways lesson learned at least#twisted wonderland#twst master chef#twst jp
