Do you still exist?

ah, I suppose it was rather rude of me to just vanish, wasn't it?

if anyone will actually see this but I doubt many people check my blog anymore since it's sort of dead... but I moved accounts!

firstly I do want to explain something...

my original plan did include still running this blog but since my new one got so much more attention I just sort of gave up- I've been stuck at about 400 followers on this blog for years and my art (the main purpose of this blog) rarely got *any* attention whatsoever and I rarely received asks or any sort of interaction from my followers which sort of resulted in my losing passion for keeping up this blog. A sort of a burn out and I really did not see any purpose in running this blog anymore or any of the blogs attached to this account...

anyway my new blog/account is @official-cisphobe which started out as a discourse blog but it's now just my personal mix and match blog where I do post art every now and then! most of my old characters have been removed from the picture however... but I really doubt anyone even cares since they didn't when I still drew them lol

I've changed a lot since I made this blog... some changes may come as a surprise some may not. but if any of you are still interested in the things I do I look forward to seeing you again.

again, I'm sorry for not talking about this but I just needed a new start.

Zillenial things

Being young enough for Minecraft but too old for Fortnite

Being alive for 9/11 but not remembering it at all cuz you were like 2

Seeing reruns of 90s shows when you were really little but being to young to really remember them

Can someone tell me how to help LGBTQ people in Brunei without just telling me to boycott luxury hotels I already don’t go to??

south park set american culture back by like ten years by teaching a generation of white boys that offending oppressive white christians and offending oppressed minorities is the same exact thing & being asked to examine your behavior is the most outrageous imposition possible

my writing ability currently feels on par with that of like…. a seven year old. i’m just writing one sentence. then another sentence. subject verb object, dependent clause period. do any of them relate? unclear. that is for god to decide. i certainly can’t.

Jack Black maybe?

I feel like Marie Kondo should be added to the trifecta of public figures like Mr. Rogers and Bob Ross that we collectively consider kindly

like, they don’t know us personally or anything, but you know they want you to succeed, improve, and live your best lives

people just gently trying to guide us into treating others well, and being kind to ourselves, and tidying up

It’s a minor pet peeve, but it is everywhere today so errrr…. please keep in mind that “Rest in Peace”/RIP literally comes from a latin phrase and is a very very deeply Christian expression.

When talking about the departed, Jews say “may their memory be a blessing.”

So please, when talking about a dead person who is Jewish, try to keep in mind that RIP is a Christian phrase.

On 6 February 2012, a female black-footed cat kitten, Crystal, was born to a domestic cat surrogate after interspecies embryo transfer.

A black-footed cat served as the surrogate mother for [2011′s] litter. Researchers next sought to show that vastly more plentiful domestic cats can serve as surrogate mothers in efforts to save the small wild cat from extinction.

“Being able to use domestic cats adds another extra dimension to that, being able to produce more,” said Earle Pope, acting director of the center. Only 53 of the cats, which are native to South Africa, live in zoo collections in the United States.
