I got away with so much bullshit in school cause I was also like every teacher's favorite student cause I didn't fuck around until after I finished my work. I just worked fast, so I had a LOT of time to fuck around.

Oh, one more I remembered that took way too much effort. Replacing every single desktop shortcut on every school computer with a force shutdown command. It took IT a week to figure out what was happening. I was actually chill with the IT guy, he thought it was hilarious.

I stole half the arm rests from the auditorium over a period of 4 years in high school. They started gluing them in plac. I just used more force to pull them off. Made a funny conversation when my brother took my room after I moved for college and asked "Are you why we have no arm rests at school?"

The conversation actually went with a phone call "Hey what are all these fucked up black rectangles in the closet?" "Oh, those are the armrests from the high school auditorium." "...are you why we don't have any arm rests?" "Honestly I think its funny they still haven't replaced them."

"Traditions" me and my friends started that the faculty hated and kept trying to figure out who caused -Sacrifice -Bohemian Rhapsody Cafeteria Choir -Volleyball ralleys during the principle's speeches in the auditorium -The Fight Ring

There's a great deal of catharsis in recognizing what Rory is now to me, and what she used to be. I did not have a healthy environment growing up, it was not safe to understand ANYTHING about myself, and it resulted in a pretty classic case of my teenage years being very destructive. And my 20s.

Even back then, she was always a reflection of who I was, but in a very very negative context. I think it's important that she keeps that, for me. That's still my past, it's still hers. But it's something to know defines me, but doesn't have to be ALL that I am. I'll always struggle, and so will she

The difference now, is at least I know why. Now the struggle doesn't have to be all consuming, devouring me from the inside out. I've found things I like, things I can enjoy, and a place to breathe and comprehend. And to sketch things that will Never See The Light Of Day

not my usual, but im working on stuff so I'm gonna take small indulgences here and there to not burn out. A long time ago, i had an OC that was effectively self destructive toxic masculinity refined. It was cathartic back then, to use them as a narrative punching bag. Anyway shes trans now. #Rory

Sorry not sorry to anyone who thought I would make a werewolf a cute wolf girl, but I think werewolves are the best when they are built like actual monsters. #Rory

I didn't know that Apple holds funds for 2.5 MONTHS. Please do NOT pledge to anyone on Patreon through the ios app! I will not be taking a 30% hit for Apple's shit. Greedy AF company.

I have also somehow fucked uo my sternum and will probably be going to get an x-ray tomorrow if this doesnt start hurting less. If i have unironically cracked a bone from sneezing I'm gonna fucking lose it

I very rarely draw Just For Me. maybe 1/10 things, and its mostly sketches. Its either comms, or stuff I hope gets eyes to make sure i keep getting work. Tabby and Felicity are currently firmly in the "this is just for me and I dont care" stage. Its nice finding new things I actually enjoy.

Is cute cat girls maybe a little "standard" in comparison to demons with weird face and mouth stuff? Maybe, but ya know what, Im finally understanding why people have liked it so much all these years

Was stuck wondering what was up, feeling nauseous, dizzy. Fucking migraine is what it is. One nice thing about moving across the country a couple years ago was I went from having them every two weeks to maybe every 2 months. The downside is they're infrequent enough that i don't catch them early now

Is this actually a bad thing? No, it means I'm not in constant pain anymore. But also other health factors and adjustments make it hard to realize what's causing what in the immediate, which is a bit of a bitch

so many times ive been hit with "i didnt wanna say anything, but-" after having moments of "I think I just realized" and my gut response is overwhelmingly WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU COULD TELL? Yes it is from the people closest to me in life but I would like to PRETEND i was good at hiding things

there is also no genuine anger or frustration, just in the red faced, high pitch screaming "SHUT UP. SHUT SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!!" stage of things because I know its all true

i keep having a bunch of personal revelations lately after repressing stuff my entire life and then getting read to filth by friends when i say it and I'm getting mad. And by mad I mean Cripplingly Embarrassed to the point of shouting into a pillow

its so much shit that is like me finally admitting things to myself and then ultimately being hit with how Not Subtle I am in life and then me screaming into a pillow for 5 minutes because I'm constantly in the "everyone knew but me" stage

Actually I just realized I might be a dumbass who hasn't drank anything yet. Fun fact: I consume like 2 gallons of fluid Every Day. It has been like this my entire life. Any less and I feel like death. And NO, I'm not pre-diabetic. I even got blood work done to check.

one thing i think all creatives need to look in the mirror and actually internalize is sometimes that thing you made didnt pop off not cuz the algorithm hates you or cuz people can't appreciate good art when they see it but cuz sometimes you are in fact delivering mid you gotta take those Ls

I do not talk about things that piss me off On Purpose. I am a VERY angry person. I have to do a lot to not be angry all the time. If you approach me with "thanks for not doing this bad thing" or "hey did you hear about this bad thing" for shit I am not talking about, I will just block you now.

I was raised being told to be thankful things weren't worse while I was actively treated like shit my entire life. I have hate in my heart from scars that will never fade. Do not approach me with performative activism, do not thank me for doing nothing. Either support me, enjoy my work, or leave.
