Thank you!!

I had a bit of a post-project blues when I finished (really spent several days working on it non-stop and only thinking about the design and problem solving), but now I’m already anticipating making something else.

I finished the bag(s) and they turned out pretty nice! I didn’t take them for a test drive yet, I think they might be in the way of the arms a bit, but I can move them more forward or back around the belt, the position is pretty adjustable. 🧵🪡👜

Thank you! 😊 They turned out really well! I’m gonna post an update soon

Hey, Jill! 👋
Yeah, my thoughts and feelings kept my mood pretty grim but I’m slowly getting over it — just trying to process a deep hurt, it’s better now though.
I missed you and your cheerful painted critters! ❤️

On a less grim note, my current project and source of escapism is a belt bag(s) for a hands-free walking experience. The shape creates the effect of having 3 butts instead of one, which is a total win imo. I’m eyeballing the whole process but so far it looks promising

Yes, you are! 😄

Aw 🥹🩷 thank you! Likewise! Only remembering the nice peeps keeps me occasionally lurking here and not retrieving to the cave completely

outside my head. I don’t wanna touch it with a ten foot pole. The only things that keep me sane are trying to stick to daily routine (and failing at it a lot) and some random crafting projects.
Also not being here and having news sources in other places made me feel like nothing good ever happens.

was a self-absorbed emotional vampire in actuality. I didn’t draw anything new for 3 months (or more), except a few practice sketches but even that felt redundant quickly. Can’t say that I’m depressed or tired, but I feel fatigued and so done with everything. Don’t get me started on the reality

Sup y’all!
It’s been a while.
I didn’t feel like posting because I felt like I’ve got nothing but bad takes, felt annoyed instead of soothed by pictures of pretty yards or majestic landscapes and felt weary of strangers online after a painful falling out with someone I considered a friend, but who

Hey, Welbot! 😃 I’m surprised I’m still remembered here 😅 yeah, I haven’t been around here or anywhere for a long time, but I’m planning to change it (again).
Everything very much sucks and far from okay, but… I don’t know what then 😆

Does anyone else feel like being online is just too much work? 🫠

Accidentally the best work-in-progress photo ever.

I had never seen a spider this beautiful before. Her fangs shine multiple colors in the sunlight!

I’ve heard Saw is trending again 🙊
I urge you to watch the video for it is great and delightful and remind y’all that I’m myself “an old woman with the taste of a teenage boy” aka a connoisseur of Saw, Hannibal and now 80s sword and sorcery movies. *Sigh..*

Watching old fantasy I understand now why so many kids of a certain era grew up very concerned about the dangers of quicksand 😂 it’s legit the staple of the genre

As I want to fully remove myself mentally from reality, I’ve been watching Beastmaster movies and I found them more entertaining than I was ready to admit. Senseless 80s fantasy fun is just the right type of escapism I was craving. I’ll continue to revel in more sword and sorcery movies for now

My Muse talks about one of my favorite movie franchises.. this cursed timeline is finally balanced out by something good 🥹

They auto-label just about anything as aey-uy except the actual slop that keeps getting into feed :(

My problem with modern gaming - modern tech, products, services, anything really - is that you aren't the customer.

You are a user. A consumer.

The actual customers are the investors & business guys. And I think that's f* up.

Пол-ленты забито сокрушениями и заламыванием рук на тему «сколько же зла в мире!», кто-то там что-то осуждает, а я смотрю в шоке тип «ребят, Зло щас размазали по асфальту как жука, это надо праздновать, а не цокать и неодобрительно качать головой!» :D воистину хоть что-то хорошее

If you think this is a bad thing, I’m sorry, but you’re a hypocritical asshole who doesn’t use their brain and your self-righteousness is misaligned terribly.

Ding-dong, the witch is dead! Which old witch? The wicked witch!

Congratulations, my dear siblings in suffering! This must feel just and euphoric.
