How I feel today: like there’s an angry notecard out in the world detailing my stupid mistakes from my last relationship that I was told were forgiven by a person I consider my soulmate. So I feel like a pretty shitty person today. Sigh. #breakups #forgiveness

Chiron’s been in return for me since July 2024. Still have March to go and the pain is intense. Realizing the people I love can’t/couldn’t ‘see’ me leaves me with almost nothing. Twice now in my life. And it’s not something I can repair alone, so I just hurt. #astrology #healing #hope

Anyone else in the USA feel like we’re living in Lord of the Rings? You think people of Gondor were like, “how does this Islidur guy get away with all this shit?!!” Wish I could hang in Hobbiton, but it is what it is right now.
Listening to On The Media. As a person living everyday with the scars of trauma, I get that it seems like the cure for trauma is to destroy your perceived threat. Unfortunately, the trauma endures when you make your threat the people fighting your political revenge. Seek equality, not revenge.

Comic page depicting an isolated man in a cabin the forest. His head is pounding with obsessive thoughts about depression. The pressure of the thoughts is so much it literally crushes his head in.
Just want to thank everyone who has followed me and reposted my art. I posted pics of a hastily drawn, unfinished comic earlier. Here’s a one pager that I drew on a break at work about my dynamic with depression. It’s a few years old now.
Little bear sleeps on bed. Hears a FUMP. Wakes up. Father bear in his underwear has drunkenly flopped in Little bear’s bed. Little bear tells him to move. Father bear shouts No! At him.
Little bear sadly stops arguing. Tries to get up and crawl over his drunk father. Trips and the unfinished panel is Little bear falling.
Serious question: should I stop spending my time doing monthly art pieces and focus on making my first full graphic novel? I don’t have time and energy to do both right now. I feel I need some guidance. I draw little comics from dreams, but don’t have time to finish them. #art #illustration
USA is really hard for INFP-types like me right now. The very air we breathe feels ripe with conflict and disharmony. I try to be strong and stay reasonably vulnerable so I don’t shut out the good with the bad, but today I feel weak and hopeless. I’m not a great Samwise to my Frodo right now. 🙁

Had a really not fun day yesterday and am so not looking forward to today. Can I just snuggle into some blankets with a nice mocha all day today? We need an emotional fitness routine with a recovery day after frontal lobe day. Sigh. This is why they call me a dreamer. #emotionalfitness

Ugh. Gotta go to my job. I like what I do, but I like creating art and story more. Unfortunately in my four months of business, I’ve made… lessee… 1+1… yup… carry the five… exactly $0.00!!! It’s early days. Still trying to find my audience. #art #supportartists #findmyaudience
There are no winners in the direction we are racing towards...
Back in the late 90’s, if you signed up for Yahoo mail, you got endless spam from ‘your naughty neighbors’. I had 3 neighbors. Present day: If you live in Portland (I do), the right endlessly spams about my ‘antifa terrorist neighbors.’ I think they paid the same porn marketers cuz it’s a fantasy.

Every ai video sucks because they’re never more than their prompts, you’re like ‘yeah that’s a video of a dinosaur eating chips whilst skateboarding,” but like that’s it - you could just post your prompt and it’d be the same. But every real piece of film contains MORE than just its script
