I should have added tags when I made this post lol

A cyan semibot falling headfirst down an elevator shaft, the Robe monster looms angrily in the doorway of the floor above.

I jumped into an elevator shaft to hide from the Robe. I forgot to check if there was an elevator in there to land on first, though...

Wheee!

This is so cute! I just gotta tell ya that, her right hand (left side of image) is on backwards. The thumb should be pointing towards the body lol.

I forgot her little laser pistol, but here's another alien Miku to add to the pile!

The UFOs can detach to fly around freely in space!

I was thinking of this concept earlier today, and then saw this post while scrolling so I had to make the meme real, with impact font and everything.

Part of why it's hard for me to share my OCs outside of my friend group is because I've felt this "they are a part of me" so strongly my whole life.

I'm excited to join for the first time this year, and also a bit scared because I know it takes me too long to draw anything that feels good enough sometimes. I'm looking forward to it though!

I did draw an OC! I was thinking of names, and I really like Nimm. They are an orchid mantis nymph, so maybe distantly related to the mantis tribe that lives near Hallownest? A sister-tribe of orchid warriors.

Eventually, I will draw an adult form. I need to do research first.

I've been feeling like I want to draw all day, but I spent a lot of time just scrolling instead. So, I went and looked specifically to find an image I could try to sketch.

30 minutes later, and now I have an adorable orchid mantis nymph drawing!

I was so tempted to turn this into Silksong fanart 🎨

Now for the reason I actually opened this app today, like 5 hours ago:

Record keeping!

I make small "soft goals" for myself each week, and bigger ones for the month.
In January, I completed 2/4 monthly goals. (I would say 3/4 but I didn't finish the one until today)

I also did 9/14 weekly goals!

Not my cup of tea. Is this normal here?

I am open to talking to people! I sent my replies before cooking dinner, and came back to see I'm blocked. Why?

I'm not required to answer your questions. But, you should ask them outright instead of asking if you can ask. Now I think you're sus.

Oh well.

I just noticed... It's been 2 weeks since I last posted here. I just got burned out really fast.

Maybe I just chose the wrong week to start my account. I'm not used to the stress of paying attention to social media. I feel like I need to limit the time I spend thinking about the world in general.

My family's cat, sitting by the window. I love him so much!

I decided I should use this banner I made back in 2018 for my profile here.

I applied a low-poly filter to an image of a Gram stain test I did in college.

I just held my phone camera up to the microscope eyepiece, so it's not a very high-quality image. But the colors are nice.

It's not just

"I'm not physically doing anything so I must be lazy" (though that's a part of it)

Because it gets significantly worse whenever I think about anything related to finances. Grocery shopping? Can't focus on dinner plans. Too worried about the % of my pay I have to save for bills.

Now that I'm back at work, I can finally put words to the feeling I had while I was off yesterday.

Guilt. Stress.

I wasn't being useful, so I was being a nuisance even when i'm alone and relaxing. Even when I'm allowed to relax I feel like I shouldn't be.

Character limits really hurt the ability to ask questions in depth.

Another aspect of the book I recall is that anybody who used their real name online insted of a handle was referred to as a villain

The bots were supposed to be limited to airlock rooms but the anti wanted money more than safety

I found this just before going to bed. I'll like a few more posts and see what's new in the morning! Today is day 0 of my BlueSky experience, glad to find a useful way to sort the feed so soon!

Last post today- it's almost 3 am and I should have gone to bed at 2.

Does anyone have any music suggestions? I like a little bit of everything but I want to build a playlist of more recent songs for this year. I've been exploring, but I need more variety than the algorithms are willing to give me.

The rest of this description is the contents of the handwriting. Example Journal Entry, 2026/01/16, ~1:30 am Written for sharing with others. I'm not going to post my actual entry for the week, but this should be enough to serve as an example. I write for an audience of myself usually, so it's hard to chose what's safe to share with the internet. I was raised to be overly cautious online, and I want to say that was a good thing, but now I feel a little bit out-of-the-loop. I never made accounts for Twitter, Instagram, etc. Maybe YouTube comments count as a social interaction? They're less chaotic than feeds like this. I have interacted with people in forums before too, but not very often. I've usually just read what others say and kept silent myself. From my actual journal for this week: "I'm not scared of sharing a bit of myself with the world anymore." Good. It only took 12 years. I'm not sure how to approach all this yet, so I'm probably going to end up posting a lot of random stuff, thoughts, and ideas as they come to me. New goals: (These aren't just examples. I make a new list each week, and do at least one by the next.) - Make a new playlist for 2026. (Anyone have new song/artist suggestions?) - Deep clean 1 room in the house. - Wake up early enough to take a photo of the sunrise (within a week).

What I've been doing for the past 3 weeks now: Handwriting a journal entry before bed.

It's a weekly check-in, helping me keep track of progress towards my soft goals (which are like... small resolutions you don't actually HAVE to do) and make a record of things that mattered to me that week.

Note to self: Stop spending an hour overthinking what to write.

This is my first post here. I got an email inviting me to join years ago, and I just... procrastinated.

I'm trying new things this year. Soft goals instead of resolutions.

Yes, it took me over two weeks to start. Happy New Year 2026!
