I've had my time to mourn. I need to return to normal stuff or I'm going to go crazy from all the sadness I'm wallowing myself into.

I consider myself lucky to have been there for my father's last seconds. Many do not have this opportunity. My sister did not. I am grateful for this. Thank you everyone for your wishes. They really helped. Still, give me time to grieve.

I'm very tired. Hospital is far from my home and making these trips under this really hazy weather is taking a toll on me. I might be getting sick. I hope my dad will be around still, not that he's actually awake at all.

My dad is dying and this week is his last. I will not be doing any drawing. I need to be there for him. Sorry everyone.

I am really popular enough that twitter manually deletes every outspoken post I do and locks my account weekly.

I like tall women but my gf isn't tall. Its unreasonable to ask her to get tall, so I'm asking the genie to make all men shorter.

My mom came to tell me "it's okay not to have children. The world isn't ready to take care of children". I wasn't planning on having any but its fucked that she told me this. She was the most enthusiastic about having grandkids esp when I'm the only one capable in the family. Damn.

I used to flirt a lot with commenters on my posts. Had to stop because a kid genuinely developed feelings for me. Yeeesh.

Every small angry internet person who attacks me has a David vs Goliath fantasy they want to fulfill.

Tired after escorting my dad who has jaundice from his heavy drinking and smoking. Now we find out he has a broken liver, so they has to put a urostomy bag to filter out all the bile. This, after figuring out 3 different cancers in his body. Guys, please quit smoking and drinking if you are.

I'm kinda desensitised because I knew this day would come. He's still smoking because he can't overcome the addiction. Drinking too. Life is hard but don't punish your body as catharsis. Please.

I'm immensely proud to announce that my texture library that's been in the making for nearly a decade is now available on my itchio store for indie devs to purchase commercial licenses. makkon.itch.io

Whenever I watch an isekai show, I'll always be thinking I'd probably can write smth way better. Then I remember that the authors are writing to survive.

When I design a character, I consider using more than 5 colors (outside of skin) a failure. This mostly because I am usually drawing these characters a lot, so I gotta color pick locally. Also, very strict on what color to use.

I also avoid using accents too much. It easily becomes a crutch in many designs I see. Outside of that, Ive been trying to get into more elaborate shapes. But it's been kinda hard to figure...

I hate how a lot of people in my country just does not engage with art ever. Its why they sound so stupid and insipid. Never practicing any critical thought and just swallowing whatever is given to them. Idk who divorced empathy from intelligence. You very much need intelligence to have empathy.

Fuck fuck fuck. I swear the world would become better once people overcome the dent in their skull. Fuck your curtains. If you engage with art deeper than your masturbatory catharsis, you become a better person. When we have enough better people, we will have a better world.

We are so desperate to chase some kind of reputation in the world, we're willing to allow artists to die for shitty tech. Then, the government wonders why our cultural export sucks. People can't make decisions; they're fucking chewing permission from chatgpt. They can't be human.

They keep fucking complaining that every artistic work have repeating themes and never innovate. Youre fucking stupid. Themes repeat because they never get fixed. Art Is born from the reflection of pain you've allows to persist. You excuse your sloth with logic you derived from insecurity.

They are against genocide because someone said so. Never actually embodying the principles that stands against genocide. Never questioning anything. Only working on base desires and capitalistic product profit. Domesticated cattle to their "hated" colonizers.

Women get mistreated and secretly raped but we get fucking religious communities making excuses. Religion is married to state and nobody fucking questions why billions of cash is stuck because shitty religious inheritance laws. They can't gauge hypocrisy because they can't think.

I really like very heavy games that are just costumes to make a spreadsheet look good. My addiction to learning really complex entertainment is my curse.

I wonder how bad is health in America is. Everytime I talk to an American, they'll never escape talking about the daily drugs they take to keep themselves alive. like 4 or 5 prescriptives usually. I have some too but im usually not this intimate.

I don't really like how speech bubbles are used in comics. They push me out of appreciating the art when I have to switch to reading rows of text. Been trying new stuff to overcome that. I can bravely say that I didn't come up with anything better.

I wrote the first few drafts of my comic chapters and got my friends to read them. They loved it a lot. But, I need some negative feedback so I sent it to my other group of friends who are more professional. Got no negative feedback. Hmmm. This might be a problem.

To be fair, I did slave away 16 drafts over months and landed on one I feel I can be proud of. I'm excited to write more esp after finally learning my flow from so many failed attempts.
