You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️‍⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

Whispers I’ve been here the whole time 👀

THERE'S NOT ENOUGH TIME IN THE DAY TO PUT CHARACTERS IN SITUATIONS

whenever i encounter people who say they can't understand shakespeare verses I always send them this clip from the 2019 Shakespeare in the Park production of Much Ado About Nothing

shoutout to artists who have a clear type and keep making different ocs of that type because no one is going to stop you

That’s a hell of a glow up! 😂

Honestly the amount of your music from back in the livejournal days that made it into regular rotation for me was phenomenal. Would listen to anything you curate any day.

I would really like to stop having massive family tragedies in spring, if you don’t mind.

Or stop having them at all, that would also be great.

Aaaaa that one was delightful, I can’t wait to see your thoughts!

Listen man, I’m with you. But the people who want to die on that particular kind of hill have the weirdest standards

The vibe I’m reading is less about age specifically and more about Whiteness. The character on the left is a red head, which (tho not exclusively) most often appears in Scottish or Scandinavian descent. The darker skin and eyes of the character on the left make her a little ambiguous tho gorgeous

Be patient with yourself and take breaks as needed! It’s okay to step away, just come back again with your head cleared

I like thinking about people's OCs as their own personal deities. Like. This is my guy that I made up, when I'm anxious I look to them for courage, or when I'm bored they provide entertainment, and in exchange for their blessings I create a million portraits of their likeness

Great finds, thank you for sharing!

Yes! I love hanging out w people as they draw, it makes me draw as well haha.

“Just calm down and let people enjoy chatgpt.” Sorry, no. I find it creepy that folks are treating a machine that mimics human speech as their friend / therapist. It is feeding you lies. It is destroying your thinking abilities. Shut it off. Talk to other humans. Go outside.

Your poses are always so expressive. Do you use ref for sketches like these or are they straight off the dome?

Yes discord works fine! I’ll dm you

You can always revisit it again later too :3
Do you have a list you’re working off of? Your momentum is incredible!

you pretty much gotta have an oc to keep it together out here. just a little thing you can say whatever about

The hands practice will help you with so many other things as well though! Keep going!!

This is such a cool concept! And the colors are so nice!

Hey this sucks and also don't go around saying things like, "FAFO, North Carolina," or "Guess you all got what you wanted," as there are several million of us North Carolinians who did not vote for this shit so I don't wanna hear it

As someone who’s also struggled with this, it really comes up to showing up somewhere consistently and showing genuine interest and presence in the activity. Exposure is easy in school, harder when you’re not constantly exposed to the same groups.

Or make friends with friends of friends haha.

I see unicorn day was yesterday, so yeah a day late and also this is from 2021
But I remembered I’d done some thematically appropriate fan art of my fav childhood movie

So have some Last Unicorn art lol

The shapes in this are SO DELICIOUS thank you for the meal 🙏🙏🙏

SO TRUE, I have a sketchbook dedicated specifically to AUs of one of my couples lmao there are Many

people might think creating OC lore involves a lot of thinking & planning, but in my personal experience, OC development is more like a divine vision from a god slamming you over the head with a mallet while ur doing the fuckin dishes or folding laundry

Genuinely so excited for all of the Murderbot info dropping this week. Everyone looks STUNNING and FLAWLESS and the longer I sit with it the more hype I am. So happy Martha got to be so involved in the production, can’t wait to watch AAAAA

This is me with the cast on the hopper set, in front of the viewport, with the green screen behind it. From left to right: Akshay Khanna as Ratthi, Tamara Podemski as Bharadwaj, David Dastmalchian as Gurathin, Noma Dumezweni as Mensah, Alexander Skarsgård as Murderbot, Sabrina Wu as Pin-Lee, Tattiawna Jones as Arada

Cast again, some not in their full costumes, right after they had done a run-through of a scene before filming. We got to sit in the hopper while they did the run-through and it was awesome.

Couple more photos from the #murderbot set visit. More info in the alt text:
