How do you stay so cool and awesome 🥶 erm also who/what are ur biggest art inspirations? Also you make so many detailed pieces do have any tips for not burning out? From ur biggest fan, spongeboab.
in terms of burn out: i trained myself to draw very fast so none of my pieces take me over ten hours individually. that way i tend to get them done pretty quick and dont have to struggle with trying to come back to finish them although i still end up with a lot of wips of course. i also make sure to spend a lot of time doing stuff that isnt drawing, especially stuff like watching movies or playing games so that i recharge creatively. in uni i had classmates who said they didnt watch movies or play games (even though we were in game art..) read books or listen to music etc, nothing else creatively or any other hobbies and they were always the fastest to burn out and fall behind. its really important to take time to look at what other people are making and that doesnt just mean scrolling social media and looking at pictures there but you know going to see something or maybe trying to crochet something if youre into that anything really. also switching between traditional and digital can help (even just having a traditional sketchbook. i draw random things on paper when im especially frustrated)
some big art inspirations in no particular order and not including everyone ever:
kazuma kaneko
2. denis sarazhin
3. yamada akihiro
4. ryuichiro kutsuzawa
okay my cat keeps climbing on my computer so instead of finsihign these collages while he messes witheverything im just going to list the rest
satoshi kon, edouard caplain, ashley wood, piotr jablonski, shigenori soejima, yoshitaka amano among others

Taurus Moon And Each Day Of The Week
Taurus moon and each day of the week. I will get to the other moon signs. Just follow the blog to stay updated with each post.
Monday - This is a day meant to be spent in the comfortable and most easy way possible. Your job may be a little more easy-going this day. If you are independent, you are likely to rest or do minor things on this day. You may actually want to be doing more or having more on this day, but you may be met with limits of some kind. A lot could be on your mind, especially your to-do lists. Joking around, the use of substances, complex attitudes, and enjoyment of any kind is likely.
Tuesday - A day that can be considered "for the books" A lot is happening or it is a highly active day. If you aren't traveling, there is a lot that you see or are getting into. You may likely be focused on yourself and your own goals on Tuesdays. Work day most likely or a day to work on something as you would be more focused and willing to dedicate genuine effort.
Wednesday - Enjoyable day for you. Things seem magically easy and fun. You may smile a lot more on this day. Your energy is light and social. You want to connect with people more on this day. You are likely able to joke around loosely on this day. Your actions are unpredictable. Good day to post on social media and/or watch movies.
Thursday - You are a social charmer on this day. You are full of optimism and energy. Your social battery is fully charged and ready to go. You are likely to be aroused on this day so if you are coupled, this is a good day for those needs getting met. Whatever is going on today, you are able to adjust easily. Not likely to be a day of actual planning. It's a go with the flow type of day.
Friday - Good day for people with business on social media. Good day to promote something you have going on. You are full of inspiration on this day so also dont be surprised if you FIND inspiration this day. Whatever you have to get done on this day, you may do it in a way you have never done it before.
Saturday - You have more to do today than you prefer to. A productive day with randomness to it so be open to things being multiple ways. Good day for self-care if it is possible. You want to chill or you just want balance around you on this day. The day itself could be either enjoyable or complex. You are more responsible on this day.
Sunday- This day is either confusing or a lot happens that is unplanned. You have multiple things you can get into this day. Best to be wise about what and how you do things on this day. Another day where you may be aroused and wanting some romantic dealings. Best to use this day for travel. Social media usage is recommended on this day, especially if you are promoting something. You are likely very influential this day. There is likely something you can learn on this day.

i'm a cis woman, but in the past few years i've developed a habit of headcanoning any male character i relate to as a trans women, beginning a fic trying to explore that, and then miserably falling short as i can never figure out how to end the story. i've recently joined a new fandom and started my most recent attempt at writing this ever-elusive character interpretation i've been trying to explain for years. and it occurs to me that maybe the reason i keep trying to interpret these characters i relate to as women and failing to, is because i'm trying to project the wrong experience. because i think that conclusion i can never fully bring myself to write isn't one about coming to terms with womanhood and embracing that identity, but about coming to terms with being a man.
so tldr im a trans man and this is a coming out post.

a crucial and often overlooked part of the social media experience is the need to see posts from ppl about things you do not care about. do not misconstrue my words because im not talking about giving bigots a platform. im talking about following ppl who never shut up about a game i never want to play. people who post about their oc for a manga ive never read. fan artists who you have no idea what the hell theyre drawing but you like their style. vaguely horny artists who have kinks i dont understand. people who post about bands from the 70s as if theyre still together and on tour. people who are obsessed with poetry when youve never found a poem you really feel. like sometimes you gotta follow somebody totally at random just for the enrichment and see where it takes you.

The subject of the getter manga spin offs came to my mind randomly today talking to some of my friends and I’ve been thinking about how IIRC the only major spin off manga to not be translated is High, aka the Mahjong one with a all girl team. The only other ones to follow are a manga made for the PS game and the “try to remember” manga that arma’s first 3 ep director made, but those are in a weird territory of spin off classification, at least compared to the others, but I also chalk up their lack of translations being their hard to find, especially because try to remember was considered lost media. (Until my friends randomly found it lol) But I’ve been wondering to myself something regarding that: While High simply could’ve never been translated because finding the proper scans could be hard, I feel another factor people gloss over it compared to the other spin offs is because there’s a absence of the OG getter team.
Because even though I talked about how Go team been not adapted properly in animes and the toei go show was likely overlooked because of that-to manga readers-I also note it is the only Getter show to NOT be fully subbed even though getting the footage doesn’t seem to be a issue. All the other getter manga spin offs feature the OG team in some capacity, most of them are their own tellings of getter so we get adaptations of the team. The only example I can think of that didn’t do this was Hien, but that had Hayato in it. Meanwhile High is a new getter team completely so people seem to turn an eye to it, even though the girl pilot is- very much clearly “Ryoma but gender bent” lol. (And I do know a handful of people who like her but not a TON)
I don’t wanna make bad assumptions about the fandom because it’s just more so how it goes, the first line of protagonist’s will ALWAYS be the most popular with there only ever being a few exceptions to this, but it is kinda a shame Getter falls victim of most of the fandom either liking Ryoma and/or Hayato the most-mainly Ryoma but I met plenty Hayato fans and y’all are insane /pos-and don’t really bother to bat a eye to the other characters which I just feel leads to these things getting neglected. And I’m- guilty of this but I’m trying to talk about the others more.

If u have bad mental health and you're misery obsessed, literally just stop feeding yourself poison all the time. Your mental health will improve. If you're only primarily consuming extremely angsty fiction, stuff with mentally unwell conflicts, abusive relationships, etc, you're only keeping your own mental status locked in a box of this one thing. If you're miserable irl, and obsessed with fiction centered around misery, it 1000000% IS making it so your mental health will never improve. When you see healthy relationships in fiction? Learn how to appreciate them and idolize them, and dissect them and understand them, instead of turning towards fiction that depicts this healthy relationship as abusive and toxic. You have to start somewhere with yourself. This is an easy way to help improve your overall mental health and worldly outlook.
