I make webcomics! Read SPIDERSILK on Tapas ✨ Enthusiastic about flowers, elves, armor, fantasy thieves, and satyrs 🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ He/They. ✨ Sometimes NSFW. ✨ Freelance Editor, BG artist
I like taking classes sometimes too. Since I'm fully freelance and work at home, having something in group settings outside of the house is a nice break, so there's that. Really cherishing my music lessons lately!

oh gosh no, don't mention it, those songs will come back 😂 Those lived in my head for a week after I watched! I really liked "What it sounds like"

I've started trying to swap up the lyrics and everything because it won't leave 😂 I know most of this song but of course only a few lyrics want to be in my head!

Random songs get stuck in my head on repeat and I have no idea what triggered them half the time. It's been days. I don't hate the song, but... it's been DAYS

Sohrab and Prentice are from my webcomic SPIDERSILK -- currently on hiatus, but there's like 700 pages ready to binge!

spidersilkcomic.com or tapas.io/series/spide... to read!

Thank you! Yes, I was probably feeling nostalgic for fall and looking forward to summer flowers all at once haha!

Anyway, one more: I once took a picture before I started, even though it was a *massive* mess, and sent it to a friend and told them I was cleaning.

I did that again, and though I didn't send anyone the picture, somehow just doing that helped motivate me to clean and rearrange.

idk why I'm talking about ADHD cleaning tips but here we are.

Probably because I'm supposed to be working and I got distracted.
