making a playlist consisting only of Is It Really You? and Hey Ya sure was a decision because i almost teared up over my eggs when i zoned out for a moment

then i sat down and opened tumblr and i started crying over @herbal-quintessence 's tags so i think i'm doing really well if anyone was curious

#it wasn't even that serious #just the fact that i exist and people on the internet notice and maybe even care #i am so sorry for tagging you feel free to ignore #but also i am sending you the biggest hug because i adore you #🫂🥺 #yeah that's all #Buba's cryfest and all that

How do you art. My ability has left me and a block has taken its place

(This is my second time trying to do this, tumblr I will blow you up PERSONALLY)

First off I am giving the biggest hugs!!! Art blocks suck and I'm sorry to hear that it's bringing you down :(

I think the best thing to do is figure out what's causing your artblock. Everything I'm about to ramble about is personal experience so if it doesn't apply throw me another ask or DM! I'm always happy to talk to people!

In my experience, artblock usually comes from a very mental place. Creative have a bad habit of equating their worth to what they create/the quality of what they create.

You are more than content!!! Your art is a wonderful thing about you, but it's not your entire worth as a person. So if you fail, or you suck, that doesn't mean that you as a person fail/suck. So if that's in your noggin, start niggling that little bitch out. Yeet it into the sun!!!!! She's useless and adds nothing to the conversation!!!!!!!!

Don't be afraid to create bad art, either. I can't express to you how many aborted files I have in my folder because I thought "it's not good enough. Scrap it"

But my biggest leaps of progress come from me being like "this sucks, but I'm going to finish it anyway" you learn WAY more with bad art than you will with good. Analyse and deconstruct after you've finished creating, not during. Have fun while you're doing it. Fuck around and find out. Get manic with it. Cackle into the abyss. Create with the joy of a 5 year old that has no idea what notes/reblogs are and just loves this silly purple guy.

Ability fluctuates as your eyes get better at spotting what's good/bad. Your art probably isn't bad. Your eyes are just much keener now at picking these things up! Your hands just haven't gotten the memo yet.

SO! Here are some actionable ways you can break art block, or at least create a little bit:

Make art that sucks and learn to be uncomfortable with it. Find joy in shitty art. I'm a lot happier now that I do this!

Finish it or post it anyway!

Speak to your creative friends, or fandom friends! A lot of my inspo comes from them because they inspire me all the time. Bouncing ideas off eachother helps a lot with idea generation, and staying excited about it.

Prompt generators and those expression memes! They take the thinking part out and you can concentrate on just drawing

Art trades, or even collaborations! Having someone else there always adds more motivation

Pose studies, a lot of my stuff is just pose studies that I warped into hot turtle men. It's another one where I don't have to think, just create.

Writing down those ideas you get at 3am so that when you're stuck you can go look at a list

I hope this helps a little. This sort of thing is hard to deal with, and I understand how frustrating it is when you want to draw but you just can't seem to (I went a year without picking up a pen, shudders). I promise that with gentle effort and genuine kindness to yourself, it can get better! I'm rooting for you!!!

(Sorry for how much I rambled on, this is something I'm very passionate about and in the trenches with also)

#i am sending you the biggest hugs #if you ever want to talk or bounce ideas around dm me! #or even if its an art trade #sometimes that outside accountability helps! #i adore your art though

[shroudkeeper]

I love your writing and your screenshots! Kikyo is so lovely and has such a stunning design; I honestly adore seeing how your portray her and how gentle she is. It always makes me smile when your posts come up on my dash. I hope you have a wonderful evening/day!

Oh anon, the way I wanted to keep this in my inbox so I may look at it anytime I feel downtrodden!

Thank you so much for passing these kind words to me and about Kikyo herself! She has been an inspiration to push me back into research and creating things that has been a bit of self healing in a way. Her gentleness, in the face of adversity and the unknown, is something that helps alleviate my own anxieties, her portrayal of a different sort of strength, one of the heart and will, is inspirational to me, the narrator haha.

As of late, most of the screens I take are in relation to the story surrounding her and I am immensely thankful that others are enjoying it along with the occurring drabbles I write between them! It has been a delight to create it and to share work with others. The result of that is an encouragement to continue. The community has energized my desire to write after all these years of being dormant.

Thus this is a thanks again not only to you, but to those who read it and look forward to more chaos as we continue this drama!

if you log out of this hellsite i do not blame you bc it does suck here but i will very much miss your presence 😢♥️

omg thank you so much! 🥺

yes, it really sucks to be here right now... i literally had to unfollow 100+ swifties to clear my dash cause i was sick of seeing people who are defending all her actions & shitting on joe alwyn for no reason. still, i don't even have the energy to scroll tumblr so all i do is check my messages from time to time. i definitely need a break, but seeing things like that in my inbox makes me want to think it through once again. ❤️

#it would be easier if this hellsite wasn't full of swifties #and i'm not saying all of them are like that but damn this is the worst fandom ever for real #i may consider staying here but i definitely need a couple more days #i wasn't really posting about taylor for a long time anyway #just some random posts once in a while but #it all sucks anyway cause she was the one who brought me here #and i don't even like her at the moment soooo #i also feel conflicted cause i am still excited to hear the new album but on the other hand #there will be no joe alwyn slander not on my watch #so i don't even know if i want to hear the new songs #it all sucks. #thank you for this message tho #it makes me so happy to see that i'm not the only person who feels this way these days #sending you the biggest hug 🫂 #i saved every letter you wrote me*

[crowleys-bentley-and-plants]

People who want you to shut up about vice versa better know I'll be under their beds with a knife 🔪. (kidding) (maybe not)

SFJKSGFKSGDJSGFJSKFG THAT'S VERY SWEET OF YOU ANON BUT THAT'S NOT NECESSARY

this is actually all part of my master plan because, see, if they want to buy my silence then they're gonna have to watch the show. if they do watch the show, then maybe they're gonna fall in love with it. if they fall in love with it, then maybe they're not gonna want me to shut up about it anymore. and even if they don't like it or if they still want me to shut up about it, im increasing the views of the show by making people watch it

EITHER WAY IT'S STILL A WIN FOR ME

#JUST ACCORDING TO KEIKAKU #but seriously i don't mind if they feel like that!!!! #i mean. im not gonna lie and say i don't get self-conscious sometimes #because i am aware there are like. only two people who care about my vice versa/last twilight/jimmysea posts #but it's fine!!!! they make me happy and i have fun talking about it so im not going to stop!!!! #and people who don't care about it are actually so very nice to still be following me and bear with me!!!! #and if it comes a day where they had enough i hope they know they can't unfollow me. no hard feelings #tumblr is supposed to be a safe space for everyone and i hope we all can have the best experience possible #but still. thank you so much for being so sweet anon!!!! #it actually warms my heart to know that you like my vice versa rambling and your message really made me smile #im sending you the biggest hug!!!! 💜 #m: ask

[patchyourbrokenwings]

How can I go through such a difficult day with unbearable suffering and still look forward to a new day tomorrow, you ask?? I have honestly no clue, been doing this for over 10 years and I have no idea where this courage and optimistic hope comes from.

#If this resonates with you #I am sending you the biggest hug! #living with chronic illness #chronic pain #fibromyalgia #chronic fatigue #here's to tomorrow!
