why would i ever post my art on bsky when the same drawing that barely got 7 likes here gets genuine appreciation on tumblr?

i dont actually care about the numbers, it just plain doesnt make sense for me to post for virtually nobody ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ so uh, if you wanted to see my art here im sorry 😅 i'll figure out some sort of a thumbnail link thing to post when i start publishing art on my own website

whats the point of this profile link update when its this restrictive and you can put links in your description already?

with this ai slopification rate im very glad i decided to make my own website. i likely wont be posting full versions of my art on any social media for the foreseeable future, just previews with a link to view it on my site

even w out the whole ai hulabaloo id probably be heading towards this solution. ive never felt like social media was a good place for my non-fanart stuff, so making my own space for it feels like a good idea anyway

slop devs cant copy my ideas if i never make anything with them to begin with :)

gonna ramber about my website a bit more, sorry! idk why but i got so into this that i went and bought a domain :D if u go to fire.tf it'll redirect to the neocities page now! ill keep my site there for now but once its done ill probably swap to somewhere w cheaper custom domain hosting

this has become my main creative outlet for now while i work through the WIPs that feel more slog-ish. unfortunately it means that i want to focus on the website WIPs a lot more than the other WIPs i gotta work on as well 😅 so uh, i really gotta put it on the back burner for now >:V

the code is so hacky it makes me wanna cry sometimes but its just so cool to see it coming together! i get so many silly ideas for what to add, like an event/stream calendar and minigames, that i cant keep up with the scope lmao. ill finish the main pages first tho i promise!

for now ill limit it to 5 pages, the main page, a gallery, the contact page, an about page that doubles as a "shrine" and guestbook and a "secret" comics page. 3 of those are now done and the about/shrine is well on its way, but i have no idea how i want to do the gallery yet 🤔

WIPtober post Number 3, my website has a contact page now! i'll eventually make my own stamp and maybe add some more stickers too, but for now im actually very happy with it :3 oh and i gotta actually make that guestbook... (also please dont look under the hood on this one its kinda hacky :'D)

this looks so nice in comparison to the main page that i want to go back and remake it now >:T there are more important things to take care of first! i gotta keep my priorities straight goddammit!

im still up to my WIPtober shenanigans but most of its been small things that dont rly feel worth showing yet. this is kinda one of those types but i figured its been a while since my first post so look! i slapped together some custom icons for my channel point thingies! :)

oh and by "slapped" i really do mean slapped lmao. i chose to be sloppy w them intentionally so itd be easy to change and make more in the future :3

kinda crazy how games are more likely to have arachnophobia modes than photosenstivity modes :)

wanted to start my WIPtober thing w something small, so i decided to finish updating my pngtuber ref art to better reflect how ive been drawing them lately im not 100% happy w the 2.0 one yet and i just got the idea to give the "chibi" version a chibi body too so, guess ill return here again soon :)

to explain what changed, when ive been drawing just the "sprite"/head ive been making the flame ponytail in the shape of a star, and when ive drawn them with a body ive made the flames act more like real hair. basically i added a bit of a star motif :3 ill explain better when i remake the full ref 😅

aight im saying it outloud so i cant just like, not do it. im doing my own october art challenge and calling it WIPtober. the idea is to finish as many WIP's as i can during the month of october, with a minimum of one finished WIP per week :)

okay i Know there have been other WIPtobers in the past but im making up my own rules cos fuck you i just wanna finish these wips in peace :))

saw the resident evil movie today. i liked how the main character wasnt like a super hero or a bumbling idiot, he was just a guy doing his best reacting p realistically. also, they used jumpscares really well. there was only one jumpscare i didnt like. overall a good zombie movie imho.

i dont know enough about re to comment on how well it used the source material tho so your mileage may vary if ur like a superfan or something :V

I'm incredibly delighted to report that sewing is just 3D modeling in reverse: In 3D I make an object, unwrap it to flat shapes. In sewing I make flat shapes and wrap them into an object. I have home-turf advantage with this hobby.

yeeeah everything from 2017 and half of 2018 are gone. everything i didnt post is completely gone. theres a slim chance theres a backup somewhere but there was nothing in my google drives :/

been fucking around with making my own webbed site on neocities. its been kinda satifying to slowly hack together piece by piece. you can go look at it yourself but its just this one page and some of the graphics are wips so they look bad if you look too closely lmao firethieff.neocities.org

ya know, i was kinda thinking about doing something special for 300 followers, but i just cant think of anything. maybe i can manage a 12h stream or something? or perhaps another baking stream? eh ill think about it

okay i think im done with traveling around the usa for now. time to spend all my free time on the computer again yay!

i was gonna edit my automatic live-on-twitch posts to not delete themselves, but i cant for the life of me remember what i use to send them 😅

god ive been so busy after my move. at least its been mostly positive busy. anyway gonna try to stream tomorrow and then disappear again for a little while 👌

gonna put my bitchy hat on for a second just to say that im really not a fan of the heckling during big gdq runs 😅

i forgot to empty my memory card so i didnt get to take as many pics as i wanted, but i did get a couple neat shots yesterday too bad i still have no clue how photo editing works :) or have a photography page :)) oh well, maybe some day

the curse has been lifted, i got my pc back! give me a bit to get some other life stuff in order before i start streaming again tho lmao

in case anyone is wondering what happened to my weekly streams: my pc is currently in a cardboard box headed for a boat thatll take it across the ocean in 30 to 70 business days (yes thats the real estimate, im so stressed you wouldnt believe)

art fight approaching is just stressing me out this year lmao first of all i got a backlog of art i should finish before i join and second of all I STILL DONT HAVE MY COMPUTER BACK :)
