#tough times dont last

[user-name-h3re]

i'm posting these mediocre sketches before school kicks my ass again

#camp camp #camp camp fanart #cc preston #god im so pissed my computer never lasts long enoug for me to finish at least ONE drawing #and i dont even have time to go fix it because of exams #cc nikki #cc nurf #AAND i cant download episodes anymore so now i feel like a huge failure #cc gwen #save me cc episode 3 season 5 #cc neil #cc ered #my art #i think preston and nikki would bond over nikki's new found femininity #since they most likely didn't get along very well before because of their differences #nikki could teach him how to fight idk #this episode validated my trans ered headcanon and my camp counselor ered headcanon #tough being right all the time #i really like that ered and nurf are both trying to become better people #i know they wont treat nurf's quote on quote growth seriously but im so happy to see so much focus on ered #i genuinly never thought this would ever happen im over the moon #ered<3333

about to clean up 12 characters wish me luck JDJHDJHDGDGF

#my art #my ocs #:) #long time no wip #last night i realized my twins were the 'person with blue eyes' meme and IM DYING #sometimes i dont know if i want to add gloves to the character or not #so like. so you might see me having drawn fingernails. but still coloured it in a non-skin tone LOL #im still trying to figure out some charas' names and designs #i want to eventually draw them all enough so that it wont be so difficult to draw. bc as of right now a lot of them are pretty tough #and yeah even the twins i find difficult to draw #i tried really hard to give them different facial features and eyes in particular #like. in the way ryoko kui does it where changes in character design are distinct but subtle in a way #flynn #nate #terence #trent #calem #jack #melissa #noa #vita #athena #eva #roy #lost and found children

man im officially dropping the jjk manga today. i haven't even read the most recent chapter im just emotionally checked out, have been for MONTHS now. it's so repetitive and boring and borderline INFURIATINGGGGGG 😭😭

so many ppl (especially jjk fans) love to hate on mha but at least mha tries to flesh out its characters most of the time and gives them a proper and fulfilling arch and is constant with the core values and ideas of the story

good riddance jjk you could've been so fucking amazing

#“It's not an airport you dont need to announce your departure” I KNOW but i needed to rant about it a bit #it just pains me to let go of it bc it got me thru some really tough times last year and during quarantine #but its honestly gotten to the point where my mental health suffers from every chapter LMAO they just make me so MAD #yes i have anger issues ok #me 🐸

lol, new fear unlocked: disappointing my therapist when i have bad days -_-

#this has been an original post #personal spewage #clouds gets therapy #like idk. i told her this week was gonna be tough for me bc of my period #but i also said last week was better than expected and she was so happy for me #and we were both so hopeful that this week would be better too #and then it. wasnt #well it wasnt all bad #but yesterday and today have sure sucked lol #im just so. mad #like. this is so unfair #i have a concert tonight that ive been looking forward to _literally all year_ #technically since last year #but i have cramps and i couldnt sleep and its pouring out and i dont have rainboots and i just. cant #or dont want to. whichever #and i know its okay. i know ill get another chance to see him live (tonight wouldve been my 4th time seeing him anyway lol) #but i still just. want to go #i wish i wasnt in pain and exhausted and depressed and just. like this #i wish i wasnt like this #edit: was just reminded that this is actually the SECOND time i had tickets to see him live this year but couldnt go #fucking sucks man #at least i did get to see him live on my birthday #that was. the best

[kaeyachi]

gonna talk about kaveh thru the tags in case people dont wanna get spoiled

#also not tagging the kaveh tag in case someone forgot to block the tag due to spoilers #kaeyachi randoms #so anyway here we go #wtf is that back story why is it so painful #its incredibly realistic as well coz that can happen irl #also since we are going to fontaine i genuinely wonder if kaveh has a half-sibling there that will become a playable character someday #imagine the angst hnghh #loathe his mother so much sorry shes depressed but that has never been an excuse to be a POS #i have the same opinion about huffman btw like yes life is tough but who tf leaves a kid alone to do all the housework while u drink #even his specialty food has a backstory can yall believe it? #someone really enjoyed writing kaveh. good for him #now i have 2 depressed alcoholic babygirls who have a hard time accepting love and affection because they dont think it will last #what does that say about me when i kin them? who knows. im just a random internet person with specific tastes apparently #kaeya and kaveh meet and just start supporting eachother pls #they would be besties fr coz they would know how to ease eachothers troubles #kaeya and kaveh: no home? same. cheers to that mate #kaeyas bio dad and kavehs bio mom sweating as they feel kaeya and kaveh fans curse them to hell and back

apparently I preordered an audiobook when I had a free one from audible (yes I know but if they want to give me a poor person an audiobook I am too weak to resist, also it's how I get my stormlight archive fix every few years) and I don't know what it is and I am also afraid to check because I am a very weird coward with issues about notifications

#what could it be #i know its not stormlight archive 5 because i would be having way more an excited fit if it were #them fuckers are my number 1 comfort books to listen to and it would be cool to have a new one #sighs #last time i checked everyone was theorizing kaladin would die in 5 #which i will accept with dignity but it will make me very sad because (sincere moment) #kaladin stormblessed being his depressed and traumatized and extremely ill self and both continuing anyway #but also recognizing that he couldnt continue in the same way #have helped me get through some real tough shit #also navani strangely enough who i was like okay with up until RoW #but then getting more of her experience while i was being severely emotionally abused kinda... yeah #but yeah my new audiobook isn't stormlight 5 so #maybe if i force myself to check it'll be a fun reveal #and then i can listen to a book i was apparently into enough to preorder #last new book i read was in august 🙃 #and i feel such pressure to read so i can be a better writer #but i dont waaaaant toooooo because emotions can be painful and i don't want to hurt #sincere moment over #positively i have written 26kish words and i kind of have an idea of how things fit together #just gotta clme up with the overarching structure for this one #the present-past flip-flop was an accident that came from the fic starting out as a one-shot and then getting Too Fucking Long #and then i decided i liked it and had a little fun time trying to tie each part to the next with some specific imagery or theme or event #this one can't do that... or at least not in exactly the same way #i have a couple of ideas and i guess ill see what works #i like gimmicky bullshit too much and i apologize #but luckily no one has to read my fics so they can't complain that im gimmicky #on thursday i have a dreaded dentist appointment but on the plus side i have often written the best in medical waiting rooms #fingers crossed #(also on thursday i am getting a pakige with stuff that will let me set up a 2nd monitor and that is exciting)

bro it sucks so much to have to go to work when you're sick

#i dont wanna go but literally if i miss another day they could fire me 😬 #i don't have covid at least according to the home tests but like. i still have a cold or something #and i can't call out because our time is so restricted #and its not even the worst attendance policy i know of but it still sucks to have to work around #esp coming from my last job where i could take off literally as much time as i needed to basically whenever i needed/wanted to #added on top of the fact that i just don't want to fuckin be there anyway #and that im scared im gonna pick up covid bc my immune system is currently weakened #ugh. i have to get through tomorrow and the next day #and then im off again #and then im on one more day before im back off again #so i will have a rest day again pretty soon at least #after being off the last three days #(the first was my legit day off but it was very busy and few days before that were the roughest of a tough couple of weeks - #the second i took off bc i had to babysit and. being completely honest. i watched all of fellow travelers thr night before. and esp after #how bad a time id been personally having lately. all the suffering and the loneliness and the romance just hit me so hard #tbh i just felt like i deserved a break and i could do some work at home to balance things out - #third day i woke up feeling sick and coughing pretty hard and just feeling generally miserable. which continued for most of the day. #but with less coughing until now bc im laying down) #i just wish i could take an extra day or two to actually kick this 😭 #sorry this is so long i can get locquacious when im tired

I'm autistic as hell about BASTILLE so we all know it'll just be a list of the first ten BASTILLE songs that pop into my head. So instead I'm going to list the ten songs I keep playing over and over on the piano because at least then there will be some variety!

Pompeii by BASTILLE

Wake Me Up by Avicii

Hey Brother by Avicii

Laughter Lines by BASTILLE

Quarter Past Midnight by BASTILLE

Counting Stars by One Republic

Bleeding Out by Imagine Dragons

Overjoyed by BASTILLE

Oblivion by BASTILLE

God Knows.... by Aya Hirano

question to tradwives who think jobs are worse than staying at home (and this is no offense but an honest question bc i also stay at home with my child and it is so much more rewarding (imo) for me than any crappy job i have worked in the past (though for ppl that have other passions/experiences this can be different being a housespouse is not for everyone by any means)

but also in my experience it is extremely tiring and so i wonder what do you expect your working spouses to do when they get home bc you dont get to clock out working from home and housework and child rearing are honestly harder than any job ive had (my spouse will admit this but also still doesnt do housework.)

like working from home is literally 24/7 no breaks no end so what do you expect from your spouse when they get home or on their days off? do you get a break from cooking? do they bathe the kids? do they scrub the Toliet for the third time that week bc they sure use it! or do they get time to relax? do you? genuine question

#tradwoman #tradwife #cottagecore #traditional femininity #housewife #traditional gender roles #homemaker #question #also this has nothing to do with my question so you can ignore but in case anyone wonders i might get a job in the future #rlly dont want to but in this economy you have to be prepared for anything (even if our relationship lasts forever something could else #could happen godforbid like injury or worse and i have to support myself and the kids and we aint rich #and you have to have work experiece not large gaps or you wont get hired #i also need to work on my social support system out of the home bc that can be important if you come on hard times #but it will be tough bc i will have to work and still do the housework lmao

#no wait listen to me. listen to me #im south asian. my grandparents were muslim. my great aunt and uncle and their children and my parents siblings are all muslim #my parents aren't. they raised us without any religion. without even our national cultural ceremonies tied to islam #dont let yourself believe for a fucking second that has nothing to do 9/11 happening two years before i was born. two years before we moved #im south asian. my dad's first name is mohammed. when we catch a flight we get to the airport two hours earlier- #to account for the time it'll take my dad to be 'routinely stopped and searched' by airport security #routinely is right lmfao. it happens every time we fly #last time i was on an american airlines flight our checked luggage ended up across the continent and took two days to get to us #(my 12yo cousin gifted us an alarm clock that made an ominous ticking noise and we couldn't shut it the fuck up- #the luggage was labeled mohammed and coming from south asia. my sibling jokes it's a wonder we got it back) #im canadian. i cried my ass off to cfa tonight bc of how touching the story of a small town coming together to help a group of strangers is #(can't help thinking that never would've happened in a bigger city? but thereby lies another tale) #and god normally i hate 9/11 stories bc it feels like two sides of my identity being pitted against each other and it makes me so uncomfy #like as a canadian i should be sympathetic towards the states and at the same time im viscerally aware of the lasting prejudiced impacts #but cfa did it so beautifully #will never get over the 'thorough search' scene. 'you will never understand'. #the lump in my throat i get every time I watch my normally distinguished and tough and coolheaded father be pushed through airport security #how resigned he is to it. how he tries to stay dignified. how scared my mom gets every time. how rough they are with him #when he usually commands respect #and yet also the pride and the lump in my throat i got today knowing it was a little canadian town that made a difference #sigh enough out of me i just have a lot of feelings #come from away #team screams

so mordred is sick and we're short on testing money

ive posted a few times about mordred being sick lately, and his xray wiped out most of our money for the next two weeks. if it is lung worms or a bad virus, im afraid of it getting worse and possibly doing permanent damage in the time before our next payday since hes already been dealing with it for so long. he and his sister are my everything, i couldnt stand it if anything happened to them that we could help.

so please, dont put yourself in a tough situation just to help us out, but if you have enough to remain comfortable after donating we would appreciate it so much. if youd like something in return my partner would draw anything youd like, their art blog is here , just send one of us a msg/ask and theyll get started on it as soon as theyre back from work

im in ko/fi jail rn and working on getting it back up, right now i only have pypl here

(including the extra gas to/from the vet, medical waste fee, and estimated tax)

81/231

#it will probably be a little higher than that if they throw in some equipment fee like last time but im going to call tomorrow #and ask for a more concrete estimate and update this if its more than that #last time she said the viral test is just a swab but maybe thats a lab fee?? stressful i wish theyd just put a chart on their site ugh #again pls dont donate if itll put you in a tough spot i dont want anyone to go without on our account #but thank you to anyone who helps even just with boosting #i love mordred more than anything and id take out a loan if i had to but were trying to get an apartment so the credit hit would screw us #so were trying to avoid that if at all possible #ty in advance again for boosting #will repay with cat pics if wanted

Goood I don't wanna go work tomorrow, I'm gonna get told off the second I walk in the door

#vent? #the artist has a full time job and its tough #it was bosses day off but she saw me sitting through the cameras and gave me a very quick pissed off call and i couldn't even react #like sorry my back hurt so bad i felt like i was about to pass out so i decided it might be best to do this long af task while sitting #felt like i was hyperaware of all my vertebrae and ribs and they were on fire #but ooh sorry if i sit down for a task i dont even have to leave this spot for #realistically I know I'll survive getting told off but also I'd rather get ran over dhsj #im hoping she'll let me explain properly instead of coming at me first thing in the morning #i genuinely felt so faint and all i could focus on was the awfull feeling in my back but sitting down helped #also there was a miscommunication about the amount of tasks i had for the afternoon so to her im coming off as lazy but i was- #-literally just trying to make it through what I thought was my last task before closing #i hate when i feel justified but it doesn't matter cuz they dont wanna listen #but again im hoping she'll let me explain #im just anxious and feeling awful rn

I have a love-hate relationship with TMNT 2012. On one hand, it's by far my favorite iteration (with 2003 right behind) and it was my introduction to not only the series, but also made me fell in love with it and action-orientated shows. I owe a lot to the show, since it practically shaped my childhood and a good chunk of who I am.

On the other hand, boy howdy does it have some major flaws and I wish they treated Mikey better-

#and please dont get me started on the whole weirdness that karai x leo brings #like what the actual fuck #i get that the dynamic was built from the 2003 series which okay fine whatever #but could you please not use the dynamic with romantic undertones when you have a 'oops you're actually related' plot twist in the back #tmnt 2012 is amazing #and while im biased in this department #for me its the best series out of the bunch and has the perfect balance of action and emotion #but wow is the writing kinda wonky at times #I wish tmnt 2012 did more with Mikey #The entire episode where they go into mikey's mind was absolute wasted potential #they could've done so much with that #I always say this whenever I talk about tmnt #but I really wish we got a Leo and Mikey dynamic where they butt heads #like how they did Leo and Donnie in the season 2 finale #Mikey is always the optimist and the idealist and the last one to give up on the idea of helping someone #meanwhile Leo you could say is practically the opposite of that #Leo is the realist and the one to make the tough calls even when he doesn't want to #have Leo make a very morally questionable decision that- while everyone else agrees to- makes Mikey hesitate #have Mikey stand up and question Leo's decision #and just go from there #I feel like there's so much potential when it comes to Leo and Mikey's dynamic #oldest brother and youngest brother dynamic for the win #tmnt 2012 #tmnt #teenage mutant ninja turtles #the fire burns #the fire rants #rant #yeah sorry to all my followers who are definitely not here for tmnt #i just gotta rant rq

I love ruining my parent's relationship even further after I convinced my mom to break up with my dad 🎉

#Further necessary information: my dad is a prick. #My mom had to actually convince me to move to have my dad take care of me while I'm sick with covid. #Which I did not want bc spending time with him is fucking exhausting. #So she calls him and he calls me and he's all: yeah actually I think it's better if you stay isolated in your flat rn (which is very fair #And the right thing to do) #Bc it would be incredibly inconvenient for me rn if I caught covid #Which again: fair #It would have been a fair point to make if he hadn't boasted about not giving a fuck anymore and if he gets covid he gets covid tough luck #Literally last friday #So glad I dont have to spend time with him that's a dodged bullet right there 🎉
