My favorite character design teacher is into Hollow Knight, and he's actually illustrating a Hollow Knight themed tarot card deck HOW DO I COPE WITH THAT WITHOUT GRABBING HIM BY THE COLLAR AND GO FULL NERD ON HIM AS SOON AS WINTER BREAK IS OVER

Hyperfixating on Hollow Knight so much I had to draw this little mothman character of mine in the game's style (more or less, probably less), this was such a relaxing piece to work on!

I could've experimented a little more with the rendering, but I'm still very satisfied with the end result ✨

Still speaking of Critical Role, I have yet to watch the animated series for their second campaign (my first place favorite so far, actually got introduced to them thanks to it) BUT.

... I'm so not ready to cry again, there's one particular arc that i never fully recovered from iykyk 🥲

Oop, teared up already 🤟🏻
Finally got around to start Critical Role campaign 4 and so far? I KNOW I'm gonna be crying so fucking hard because of at least two characters (at minimum) lmao

Completely useless, he did it again today. It took all my willpower not to crash tf out right there and then, I'm at my fucking wits end
I just had my "WELL ACTUALLY 🤓☝🏻" moment of the day, where I had to yet a-fucking-gain correct a classmate of mine who, despite me being very comfortably out and everyone else using the correct pronouns and name, keeps strictly she/her-ing me. I wouldn't usually mind, if not for the fact that BRUH

Hey chat I didn't sign in to parent a very touchy dramatic classmate who can't take constructive criticism from our professor, WHO IS A PROFESSIONAL ANIMATOR.
I love this guy, he's like another younger brother to me, but damn it gets frustrating to have to deal with twice a week
October 9, 2025 at 9:21 AM
I don't mind slightly inconveniencing myself for others, especially when I owe them a favor, but it's SO frustrating when I tell them no for whatever reason and they keep insisting I do - without any logic either, because then it wouldn't be an inconvenience anymore, it would be a full on ISSUE

The other day I had a very emotional heart to heart with my mom - about my autism, about my projects, my partner. It was very freeing and I got out of it feeling even more validated, if that was even possible 🥹

Ever since I lost my retail job in April, so many experiences and opportunities have made themselves clear and obtainable to me. I couldn't be more grateful. I'm SO happy I finally get to take part in projects doing something I absolutely adore!

I've been hyperfixated with a ttrpg podcast a friend of mine does with other ppl I know, so much so that last night I had a dream I was sitting around a campfire with their pcs.... bc for some reason we were waiting for a bbno$ concert to start?
Wtf brain

One of the few things that help me ground myself during anxiety attacks and/or overthinking spirals is the entirety of the Steven Universe soundtrack, i still don't know what Rebecca Sugar put in those songs but whatever it is it's still working 🫰🏻

My will to beat seasonal depression is making me be more mindful about my diet and have more constance when it comes to exercising, but will it also fix my sleep schedule? We'll find out lmao

This and me and a classmate of mine fucking YAPPING a third classmate's ears off about this musical the other day as we were hanging out for my birthday, I feel understood 😭😭
I just listened to the last Epic the musical saga, started BAWLING MY EYES OUT as soon as the very first note of the first song struck and by the end of the last song I was still sobbing. This machine is not okay on this fine christmas morning-- 😭

Oh hey it's been a month and now i can safely and confidently say I'm DEFINITELY on the spectrum. A month back just one teeny tiny test gave us quite The Results™, I'll have to wait till september to hear back for the official diagnosis but tbh it's never been neither a surprise nor a shock lmao
I'm scheduled for a visit with a neuropsychiatrist to evaluate a possible autism diagnosis this coming tuesday and i am nervous as FUCK

I just realized the vast majority of my posts here are in some way or another almost always about my partner.
I'm sorry I swear I do have a life lmao

My partner told me they have some ✨juicy gossip✨ to share with me, right before leaving for their d&d session.

COME THE FUCK ON BRO GIMME THE JUICE DON'T EDGE ME LIKE THAT
