I love drawing unusual critters,,,

just a heads up, that article going around about the FDA and a 'registry of trans women' comes from The Needle 'News', who have a track record of sensationalist and inflammatory reporting, take anything they say with a grain of salt until someone else backs it up

So I was looking for sample packs for my music (specifically a commission I've been banging my head over for months now) and...

...idk about how I feel about calling the Digeridoo and other native/world instruments "primitive"

This is Nathan Cavanaugh, another DOGE staffer explaining how he flagged grants at NEH for "DEI" which would be reviewed for termination. 404 Media has reviewed hours of this footage and we'll have more soon.

Like, I can completely whiff the dragon, but as long as someone walks into the path and takes a tick, then gets killed by a creep or teammate, it seems to count

I think as long as you deal *some* amount of damage, but don't get the final hit, then it counts?

I get SO many assists as Paige, mainly from her dragon or her slow. That's just kinda how I assumed it's been working in the current builds

Mood's evened back out finally, and classes are done for this term, so photos coming soon

I don't know WHY I've had a sudden flare with my anxiety and depression lately, or why I've just been shutting down some days, but I got shit to do and I can't afford to keep letting things fall by the wayside

I need to find new work, tie up so many loose ends from the last few years, and focus (for once) on getting my head back where I want it to be. Some things are gonna have to take a hit, so I'm trying to stick with the things and people that are genuinely fulfilling to me

That's the plan anyway

OK

My head's been all over the place, but I took a second to ground myself, so here's what's gonna happen:

Going to limit myself to 2-3 blogging sponsors, places I REALLY want to keep getting more eyes on

Scaling back personal photos

Music is scaled back to commissions/contract only for now

...guess I'm done with fucking Proton, too

Might as well just use TOR email clients at this fucking point

I've been so beyond anxious and stressed for the last like 2 weeks, and things just keep piling on to the point where I haven't slept for more than 2 hours in the past few days...

Think I need a break

I will fly back home to Cali JUST to sit in Stylo for a few minutes

I really need to stop letting people get close to me

Blender UV Socks The iconic Blender socks. Plain, simple, essential, every Blender user needs at least one pair. How it's made:Shipped from the Netherlands this unique design is printed by Soque, based in Elst.Details...

I don't fucking CARE

you're not a blender user in any capacity unless you have the uv socks.

My creative drive has been dead for so long and I hate it...

also hot-take (tho i've been saying it for years now) but even if someone DOES have a potentially harmful paraphilia, it makes 100x more sense to have open no-shame discussions about it SO that person can learn to cope with it in healthy ways *cough cough via fantasy* (cont..)

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

tcpipeline.org

First one in and I've already had people do EXACTLY that

Screenshot of image from ACLU Kansas: “what should transgender people who are worried about their driver’s licenses or restroom access in government buildings do? Get in touch with us at aclu.org/KS_SB244. Improtantly, filling out this form does not mean that the ACLU is your lawyer and does not create an attorney-client relationship.”

Our current governor (blue) isn’t up for re-election 🙃 it’s voter suppression too.

......fucking hell, SolarWinds. We REALLY don't need a Part 2.

....excuse me???? No you fucking don't! That's like coughing into someone's food and wondering why they got sick! Why is this in my CYBERSECURITY DEGREE COURSE?!

OMFG YES!!!!!!!!

Think it's about time for me to end my blogging streak. Got way too much going on right now and, fun as it is, I just can't devote the time to it anymore like I used to...

On the plus side, while that teammate's getting jumped, we just took down a walker

HEADHUNTER TIME

I remembered I can draw literally whatever I want. So here's Godzilla as a butch biker punk. Enjoy.
