#i was gonna finish this but

[deservedgrace]

It's really frustrating feeling like I'm not allowed to be angry about this. Feeling like I've been angry for "too long" and I need to get over it. Anger was a sinful emotion when I was in the cult. Only god was allowed that emotion because only he could feel anger "the right way". It feels like I'm right back there when my anger is questioned, when there are rules around it, when the guidelines involve more than not harming others.

My anger keeps me safe. It keeps me from going back. It keeps me from feeling soft towards it, from "well maybe it wasn't that bad", from falling for the decades of indoctrination and brainwashing again because they're ruts in my brain, deep ones I still have to work at not falling into.

I'm not safe because I know better now. My knowledge doesn't keep me safe. My knowledge doesn't undo the indoctrination of my formative years. It doesn't change the fact that it's still there, deep down, a root too deep and complex to fully pull up

My basis for everything was the cult. I need something outside of it to keep me out, keep me safe.

My anger keeps me safe.

#cults are insidious and you are at risk if you think you're too smart to fall for one #'anger isn't constructive' okay first off it's an emotion it's not inherently constructive or deconstructive #secondly why does it have to be constructive? like actually #i was gonna finish this but #whatever #personal #ex cult #anger at the church

How the last few episodes of Fionna and Cake have been

(No text version under cut)

#Cake would definitely say this unironically with no hesitation let’s be real #this is the first thing I thought of after I finished ep 7/8 #aside from being on edge the whole time #I’m not ready for the next episode it’s going to legitimately end me #be prepared for that #there’s gonna be so many tags on this one… #fionna and cake #fionna and cake spoilers #fionna and cake fanart #simon petrikov #betty grof #petrigrof #marshall lee #gary prince #prince gumball #gumlee #garylee #i genuinely did not know their ship name so I’m guessing it’s this #princess bubblegum #bonnibel bubblegum #marceline #bubbline #Fionna and cake Fionna #Fionna and cake cake #<- I always debate tagging them since their names are already on the title #yuri #follysart #digital art

december 31st but i make it silly (based on a tumblr post, below the cut!)

everyone say thank you xenia, i made adjustments for the december 31st context but nyx avatar is still fitting.

original draft of the last panel. i considered putting the bi flag but i didn't know how to squeeze it in. we love ryoji mochizuki in this house.

#persona 3 #ryomina #ryoji mochizuki #minato arisato #makoto yuki #lizzy does art #comic #this was so fun!!!! i missed doing funny little overdramatic lighting for silly jokes. #honestly i just miss coloring in general! so im gonna be doing more of that this year :3 #i think this is a great way to start the year i think. intended for dec 31st but it took some time to work on this #the sketch draft has been sitting around since the end of june 2023... i am not joking when i say i forget to finish things #BUT THATS NO LONGER GONNA BE THE CASE THIS YEAR. hopefully! #im going to do so swag this year and no one can stop me!! i hope everyone will also be swag. stay silly everyone!

One wedding and three funerals

Background paintings under the cut

#tomgreg #succession #tom wambsgans #greg hirsch #shiv roy #roman roy #kendall roy #yeah no im not tagging everyone thats too much #this is me going 'how much implications themes and symbolism can i fit in one painting' #yes i gave rose shivs haircolor. if we ever find out how she looks like and its not like this im just gonna pass away i guess #but yeah i hope yall connect the dots #i put waaay too much thought and work into this. i was googling pictures of all the actors as kids just for reference (sigh) #honestly kinda wanted to make tom and greg link pinkies as like. a pinkie promise. but that was too hard to draw in this angle #at least not without obstructing the view of the ring which is important to see so ya #my fave is actually the tomshiv wedding pic i went off with that. i love them... they should have run away to become sheep farmers fr fr #anyway im so glad im done with this UGH!! finally i can draw smth else without being like oh noooo i need to finish this #i see a lot of you wondering why there is no portrait of logan but one of ewan #it's bc the placement of the painting represent their standing. logans portray would not hang next to the stairs #his present portrait hangs at the end of it. all the way up at the top. alone and withering away #basically the picture you see underneath ewan to the right? its where toms parents would be. the right side of the wall is tom and gregs #and the left one is the roy siblings theirs. since they grew up rich rich. and tom and greg didn't #but ya thats why ewan hangs here and logan does not :)
