- digi-water is now "quickpaint," a more kitchen-sink kind of affair that's kept as fast and loose as i can; it is also now $100 ($75 less than digi-water)

- jagged inks is now $150 ($50 less than before), as it's similar to (but more involved than) quickpaint
bodies: great idea, poor execution, 5/10 at best,

pain's unmanageable today and i can't even properly pass out over it

oh! my substances,

(before i started painting today i had the weird urge to see if bryce7 would run under wine because this idea came back into my head after months of forgetting to do it) (it technically runs! but also very broken in a lot of annoying ways)

i need a full-spectrum light that's just a big flat circle that hovers a few feet above my head no matter where i am indoors and puts out like 500,000 lumens. it just might put a dent in the seasonal bullshit

i love fall. it's my favorite season. it's pretty and it's a nice break after months of The Air Is Now Soup And The Sun Hates You. but?? i *really* hate what comes at the end of it (sun going down at 4-something PM forever, negative mood and ability changes, The Fucking Snow,)

hoping to have this painting done by tonight or tomorrow but fighting SAD the whole way is making doing much of anything outside of sobbing, sulking, or sleeping (poorly) kinda difficult. it's not as bad as it's been other years (thanks vitamin D supplements? maybe?) but it's still pretty fuck-awful

gonna punch this day (and depression) in the DICK and do some WORK or i'll twist my own head off with my ASS

the seasonal affective shit is kicking my ass into the dirt so hard even with vitamin D supplements, it's a struggle to even want to be awake

i feel like i'm becoming that layer of unidentifiable muck that grows under a refrigerator no matter how clean a kitchen is otherwise

To my fellow NSFW writers and artists, queer or not, PLEASE keep calling your lawmakers and tell them to vote 'NO' on KOSA (Kids Online Safety Act), as well as other horrible censorship bills like the SCREEN Act and IODA (Interstate Obscenity Definition Act) that will fucking ruin our lives!

In addition to calling your reps, this website has both a lot of information explaining why these bills are bad/ why section 230 must be protected, as well as petitions to sign for each individual issue!

Signing petitions helps! Make your calls, sign petitions!

There were so many problems and unforeseen gotchas in getting even a SCRAP of clothing on her. Clipping. Rendering depth issues. Outline issues. UHG.

The results? Untextured leggings that will 100% get this post flagged. I'll just beat them to the punch and put it on myself.

lesson(s) learned: libpng doesn't like it when the metadata goes over a certain size (security reasons likely) + keeping .gih files at manageable dimensions (ie smaller than 1024x1024 whoops) makes them much less likely to get truncated in the process
November 12, 2025 at 2:13 AM
just going to have to start krita from bash and see if it spits anything notable out when trying to select one of these brushes
November 11, 2025 at 11:53 PM
i swear i am the only person having this specific fucking issue with .gih brushtips in krita just *completely breaking* the presets they're attached to after restarting the program because i can't find anyone else talking about it anywhere

redoing the character sketch on a comm i've been chewing on for weeks because i've done lines about five times and can't stand it every time because the perfectionism's in overdrive on this one lmaooo

feeling miserable and anxious and useless today, which is admittedly kinda rare compared to how it used to be when it was a nonstop-daily thing, but it's still got me wanting to implode into a tiny ball and disappear
November 9, 2025 at 4:15 PM
anyway: getting there lmao

turning my brain off by just treating things like sketches that i'm gradually tightening up feels better than going into it like "this all must be perfect from the very first stroke" whether i mean to or not
