Felt like drawing D in a cyberpunk setting.

#the neck brace/posture collar/whatever you wanna call it keeps his head on his neck because w h y use a needle and thread when you #have more advanced technology #its also got little vents to let the smoke out of his body so he doesn’t overheat since he’s always literally burning up #my art #my oc #D #orange sector

finished my first colorwork sweater!!!!

( @trashpandacraft was right it probably could do with one more blocking sesh but tbh it's Good Enough and I was excited to wear it and also my blocking set up is in the most inconvenient place possible so.)

#wow I thought the colorwork part took a long time.... #i had to undo the the neckline for the front and back because the armseye wasn't deep enough #and then I made up the sleeves as i went because they didnt match the pattern anymore #but I also messed up the sizing (got my inches and centimeters mixed up lol) #but that just gave me a cropped sweater which i like so i didnt go bacl to fix that #and even tho i went down a needle size the stitches came out a touch loose and the fabric where there is no #colorwork is quite mesh like #so i have to wear a cami under when im at work but i do that with all my pullovers regardless of fabric so thats no biggie. #but the pros now. #the linen and silk are so comfy for my bad body heat managment ass #i will be wearing this sweater in the summer. (atleast at work) #the sizing is perfect in spite of The Problems #i feel much better about having to undo so much of it (neckline and half of one sleeve as well as restart the ribbing 3 times #the v neck is cute. ive been on that turtleneck grind for a while now i forgot how nice v necks look on me #knitting #yarn #sweater #handmade #handknit #handknitting #hand knitting

Want to rant about this post, because it makes me seethe every time I come across it. Nothing against anyone who's reblogged it, just want to give my two cents.

A migraine is NOT the same as a bad headache! Migraine a specific neurological condition which is frequently (though not always) characterized by headache, as well as numerous other symptoms. They're caused by some combination of nerve inflammation and uneven vasoconstriction/dialation in the brain. As such, there's no such thing as a "sinus migraine" or a "tension migraine."

Acupressure and massage *may* help to relieve some measure of migraine pain if you can stand being touched long enough, but it won't help the underlying neurological condition, which is more similar to a slow-motion seizure than any other type of headache. I'm sure pressure helps with tension headaches and maybe other types of headaches, as described, but those are not migraines! Words have meanings, gang.

However, in calling these non-migraine headaches "migraines" and then suggesting that they are easy to treat in this manner, the post suggests that migraines are a much lighter matter than they actually are. This, and discussions like this, cause real migraine to be taken less seriously by the culture at large.

Fundamentally, the thing about the original post that irritates me so much is that basically none of the people on it seem to have any idea what migraine actually is. There's been a move in recent years to try to make people more aware that medical language is very specific and shouldn't be abused (ie OCD isn't just "having a messy room bothers me," it's a specific disorder that, if untreated, can massively harm people's lives), which I think is great. At the same time, there's a growing tendency to pathologize everything, from personality tics to low-grade headaches, often in the strongest terms possible. While I'm not for the policing of language in general, I do feel that it's at best insensitive and at worst actively harmful to use specific medical terms in situations where they simply don't apply.

Most headaches are not migraines. Speaking as though they are leads to a misinformed attitude around migraine which suggests that everybody gets them, they're easy to treat, and they're not that bad actually. This attitude has caused me material difficulty so many times over the last nine years that I couldn't even being to tally it.

#i am so sick to death of seeing that post #chronic illness is hilarious #so far it's been a hard nerve block day folks #WOULD THAT I could just press on the back of my neck instead of getting SKEWERED IN THE HEAD WITH NEEDLES #🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂 #'tension migraines' gimme a break #pontifications and creations

the thing they don't warn you about freshly pierced ears is the Sleep Anxiety

#im so worried about like... irritating them / ripping them out in my sleep #what if they get caught on one of my many blankets or pillows hm... #last night was the first night with 'em and i already had a stress dream #which unfortunately was one of those double deckers where The Demons™️ try to get me #but geez. #i arranged my bedding in such a way that im kinda sitting up and my head is stabilized enough so that i dont turn onto my side #or put pressure on my ~lobes~ #thus begins a long couple of months of Healing #cant wait to take these babeys out and switch things up #not that i dont like the ones i have for the healing process!! im very happy with them!!! #but Ough. monkey brain impatient.... #absolutely unprompted #i got a uhhh Saline Spray to clean em #and im so worried im gonna run out way prematurely #my depth perception and spatial awareness is a little... Off... #so it takes 2-3 attempts to actually Spray The Piercing #i end up wiping water off of my face and neck lmfao. my hair is Dripping every time #its just a general air of Paranoia #the last time i pierced my ears was years ago and i got a nasty ass infection that put me off of it until. like. a day ago #i was convinced this time bc it was done professionally with a needle and everything #INFINITELY better. lots of fun. i feel somewhat confident that it'll heal correctly #even if my bank account wont. But Its Worth It Tho Its Worth It- #and Yes im procrastinating sleep #my ability to scribble abruptly tanked so maybe ill write a bit instead #see if the artism Transferred

The way that the sun hits leaves and clouds. I feel like I could watch the colors change forever. If I could slow down for that long.

#i keep forgetting a have a deck now. i can go outside and sit there #im doing that now. sitting in the corner of a deck full of empty chairs. staring up at a big pine tree where the sun is striking it gold #at the top. i like how thr light hits the needles. if the sky was black it would look like its on fire #theres a tree outside my bedroom window too. in the morning. after the sunrises it catches thr light and refelcts the most perfect shade #of green. the kind of green that flutters translucent like youre looking up from the bottom of a pool. the light the light its all about #the sun. everything everything is about the sun. when i start my project I'll be focused on understanding how organisms catch the light bc #its so incredible and complicated it would make my chest swell to bursting if there wasnt an empty bleeding wound in my gut. a #metaphorical wound of course. i dunno. its just difficult bc right now my mood is inflated by hormones. not even that much i think I'm #just at what shoulf be a normal level of happiness so i can be slow for a minute. but just a minute bc i kno it won't last long #sorry i cant shut the fuck up when im like this but i dunno i just feel like i havr to document these ephemeral moments before they're gone #its just difficult when you kno the world is so full of beautiful things but 95% of the time your eyes are too clouded to see it #everyone tells me i work too much but i feel like im just staring off into space being miserable 60% of the time. ive just done so much #damage over the past few years im coming into a new lab as damaged goods. ive got an albatross around my neck in thr form of data i #collected so self destructively that the idea of having anything to do with its publication makes me hate myself. everytime someone tells #me good job on collecting so so so much data it feels like they're congratulating me for breaking something within myself. like i slit my #wrists and bled out on a lab bench and theyre saying good job and theyre excited for me and i have to grin and bear it and pretend im #excited too. but im not bc ive burned everything inside me to ash. so when im elevated enough to be distracted by the clouds and trees it #feels like healing. like seeing angels. beautiful ephemeral beams of light. i wish i could slow down enough to watch them. but now thr sun #is hitting the horizon and the sky is going gradually dark and i should go inside. bc i have many things to do in the morning. so that's #what ill do. and ill try to get more thsn 6hrs of sleep but its hard when your body is vibrating over with energy #but at least i dont feel tired in the morning. something in my head must be on fire #unrelated #hm i should maybe add a tw to this #tw self injury #but its the kind thst makes u good at ur Job. its the kind ppl reward. so they don't understand when u say its destroying ur life #but im trying to get better. i say as i gear up for an insane semester lol but i do mean it

wahhhh guys i have to rip out like two entire sections on my neckwarmer knitting wip and i was ALMOST DONE 😭😭😭 but its just too fucking talllllll :’( photos before i take it out for posterity. first off a little commotion as it slayssss outside of this error. clap and cheer. but anyways i was working on the final motif which are going to be hearts but i need to go back and take out that entire fourth repeat of leaves even tho i did as many as the pattern calls for!! its just so tall like if i keep going it will be like to my forehead when i finish. not ideal! sorry for the garish censoring but just so u get an idea of how tall it is on my face

#andddd i have to take out the top half of the third repeat of leaves because that will become my final repeat ofc #and the last repeat as a slightly different version– see the small heart motif rather than the like.. diamonds i guess? #which isnt that bad but like ugh. yknow #which is funny cause when i was doing the fourth repeat i was like man this is kinda tall should i take it out and redo…. and then i didnt #consoling myself by saying ill have more yarn leftover if i take it out. love to have leftover yarn #most i hate putting stitches back onto needles because theyre always backwards or i drop them or whatever else #but luckilyyyy my nan is coming over tomorrow and i had wanted to be mostly done when she did so she could see it #but my mom says she could help me put them back on the needles. wonderful idea. so hopefully shes good at that #also like yes much of the time i would presumably have it just around my neck not all the way up my face #butttt with all this extra fabric its bunching a lot and its just not as good

pulling a 12 hour shift at the wood kiln this weekend kinda set me back with my shoulder/neck trouble i've been having. but i did go to pt yesterday and we tried dry needling for the first time (two in my left trapezius, on the top near my neck) and what the fuck. i dont understand how that all works and usually approach it with a healthy amount of questioning but my muscle released and i feel so much better. i didnt hurt when i got up today lol other than im sore where i got stuck (and yes im still doing my exercises im gonna get a good grade in dont screw your body up)

(we also think that muscle is the culprit for my nerve tingling in my hand, that reacted during the procedure and has also since improved)

#stupid rant is stupid #needles #dry needling #bodies are fucking weird #take care of your bodies yall or youll be in your early 30s on your 2nd major bout of pt #i have one extra visit to see how im doing in two weeks so i hope i can keep improving and not slide back again #like i will say dry needling didnt hurt except for when he took one of them out #i didnt feel them go in and felt pressure #but what was really weird was you target the contracted muscles and it makes them twitch and spasm a little to make them release? #so like the first one i got maybe three rapid twitches and the second one i got one really big one #which didnt hurt but it was surprising bc it was the spasm without the pain #like how your muscles twitch when tired or after a work out #and then it was like almost instant relief it was just. so weird. and i am open to having that done again if needed #and it didnt tighten up again over night i almost cried lmfao #anyways #it also made the muscles in my jaw relax too which was amazing #i carry my stress in my shoulders and neck lol

Has a small hole in a piece of clothing: I sleep 😔

Plush comes in the mail with some (possibly) fixable inaccuracies (though some are not fixable, or at least not by me): ...WhEre... Is mY SeAm RiPper (idk why I focused on that of all things, outside I wasn't sure where I'd placed it and it being new.)

I knew ordering from Amazon and not looking too hard for another seller was a gamble going in though. Could have been worse.

I didn't really take in-progess shots but i do have some comparison pics.

As you can see, the pattern is off and the lower part of her crest is missing. Also funky body portions, barely a tail. She came in a, um, air vacuumed bag so I had to attempt to fluff her several times.

Can't really do too much with the embroidery, but thankfully her crest wasn't just not there!

But before that, something a bit simpler, her neck was a bit...long on side view for my liking. Despite my supplies I'm very much an amateur who rarely sews and hasn't actually practiced the type of stitch I was using: at first I did pretty good, but then somehow reversed it...well at least the fabric kind of hides it irl.

At the same time I also put in a few stitches to straighten the angle of her beak, though it's not really visible here.

The legs look different because originally I moved a leg due to her original portions but decided to do other stuff before doing the other--thankfully. Turns out after a few more fluffing sessions and modifications, the original position was best! ...I couldn't get it quite the place it was originally between being tired and the stitching blending, etc.

Next the crest:

...Yeah, there was a lot less in that little nub of disturbed fabric than I hoped, but at least it was there. Unlike elsewhere, the black had some kinda white layering on it that made it a bit difficult to sew, so there was some sticking out in the end after attempts to cover it. At least it added some structure.

Speaking of difficult to stitch, I attempted to do some embroidery around the eyes and crest since I don't have matching fabric...but the toughness, the short stitches, and the fuzzy fabric did me no favors.

Last major thing that did that could be seen already in the last pic: I fluffed her more and pinched in her back a bit to change her shape a bit.

Not sure yet if I'm going to try to find a way to fix up the embroidery attempt or make bigger changes, I don't have matching fuzzy fabric.

For now, I'm just happy with the chibi-ish look she's achieved and she can (sometimes) sit up on her own!

#latee speaks #...do i have a tag here i use 4 this stuff...probably not specifically... #latee crafts #??? #my edit #i guess??? #one thing i didn’t mention is i found a larger needle and used it to put a stitch inside the neck to help hold the shape #saw something similar in another plush's face or something #concepts and wips #toh waffle #not sure i have any got any good whites but i many different blacks #i know there's one i like but isn't fuzzy...though it's fairly good compared to the most other options i have #mobile blogging #my photo #my stuff #toy tag
