This gen AI stuff bothers me so much. It feels like every time I turn around someone sneezes in my face and I hate it and when I turn away I get sneezed on again. WHY IS IT EVERYWHERE? Why can’t I filter it out? 💀

Finally convinced Robyn to watch Master and Commander with me. Still a good one ✨

Work’s been hectic so this week instead of listening to music while working I’ve been listening to birdsong and it feels like I’ve discovered a life hack. I feel so calm and focused. The ancient lizard part of my brain is soothed.

Did this quick one a lil while ago of mine and Robyn’s ocs, Vantelme and Edwin. They’re kind of weird but kind of sweet #oc #art #ffxiv

Cleared my schedule so I could get some ART done ✨✨

Went to a&e today because I was having asthma and the doctor thought I was Canadian ( he was from Ontario ) Idk what my accent is doing but I get asked if I’m Canadian a LOT over here

Feel like I’m trying to shed an old skin lately, like things are going to change soon. I don’t know how else to articulate it.

My office has been blessed with the dusty outline of a wood pigeon that splatted against the window ( the pigeon is fine )

I haven’t had a single day of rest since we moved, there’s been something to do every day after work. I got things to doooo I’m tired bosssss 😴

Da baby. Shes going into plastic jail in a minute so we can take her tank apart. Enjoy your freedom while you can, banana lizard

Worst part about moving so far is all the dust we’re kicking up, I’ve been sneezing ALL day. Last night in our current flat though, tomorrow we goooooo🔥 Can’t wait, the new place is suuuch an improvement. Can’t really overstate how much we do not like our current flat 😂😂

Sorry for posting something and then just vanishing for weeks sometimes, I’ve been bad at replies and DMs lately Please know that I am simply akin to that cat that won’t come indoors or ask for pets but will sometimes just kinda vibe with you on your front porch and then disappear for days again

Overbooked myself a little this week. Moving Friday, two days of play testing in Brighton that have lasted all day, raiding in xiv as usual, helping Robyn haul small stuff across the street to the new place I am so tired 😪

Despite long breaks and removing Twitter from my life, it appears my relationship with social media x art is still bad. Whenever I start to feel like drawing and posting I catch myself wondering what people these days would like to see and then I repeatedly mash the loud incorrect buzzer 🚨

Had a day out with fam and got to see some ponies and things ❤️

It’s been raining a LOT lately so there are big puddles in front of some shops, spotted this on the way home from work 🐊 Sooooo cute

The six months are over and I have passed my probation, I’ll be a permanent employee now 🙌 After 2.5 years of credit card call centre hell I feel fortunate as fuck to have found such a welcoming and comfortable place to work and I hope I can stay for a long time ❤️❤️❤️

We’re going to be moving!!

Going to view a flat tomorrow, I hope it’s nice ✨

Geralt is a very handsome man 🫣

Had my first session for mountain dulcimer and I’m already pulling the strings off to realign them. Hoping I don’t break the thing in the process. Still a beginner but it feels really nice to do a strum and make a pretty sound ❤️

We finally finished rewatching the lotr trilogy last night and Theoden’s battle speech and war cry got us both choked up a bit. Really can’t get over how perfect the casting is in those films. Beautiful. Sublime. Scared to watch the Hobbit trilogy because I’ve heard things about it but that’s next

If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before) Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DTQrTqZ...

There’s a pub near us where you can go every couple of months and listen to a professional storyteller tell a dramatic story and it must be kinda close to what sitting in a tavern and listening to a bard was like.

I appear to be going through another dinosaur phase.

the rocks

Started treatment for my bad sleep early this week and even though it’s only been a few days, I hadn’t realised how deeply exhausted my “normal” had become. I feel like a different creature entirely.

Iron Lung coming to UK theatres let’s goooo ✨

Everyone should be submitting this to Apple and Google.

Really can’t get over how artists/designers working on anything will get beaten with hammers for small mistakes but AI is allowed to be just bizarre and inaccurate and sloppy and it somehow gets a pass. Absolutely fries me. I will never stop complaining 👽

The hours I spent on buses and trundling through the snow with a sore back yesterday were thankfully worth it 🤍

Hurts my back again two hours before my long awaited sleep/asthma appointment to pick up my equipment nice

Okay so the US is doing what now c’mon man wasn’t he yelling about Kamala being a warmonger during elections 💀

Took a sleep aid and slept for ten hours and woke up like that weighted blanket cat, it’s 2pm and I still don’t know what’s going on

EVERYONE GET MORE INSANE ABOUT YOUR OWN OCS NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Square Enix concert in London this year, we’re deffffinitely going. Never been to a big orchestra thing like that, but I’ll happily go and sit through some Nier and FF and Kingdom Hearts ❤️

Too many resolutions to list, but some big things next year anyways. We want to move to a bigger flat, my probation at work should end sometime in February, next driving test has been booked ( at a test centre with a higher pass rate, that’s going to be a chore to wrangle )

Merry Christmas to YOUUUUUU

Won £15 in the postcode lottery, merry Christmas to meeeeee

You know how when they do a restoration of an old painting they slowly remove the old yellow varnish with solvent and then they reapply a new varnish and it looks so clear and detailed and amazing. I think I need that done to me

Hurt my back a few weeks ago by: sleeping Just woke up with it hurting and it continued to hurt for two weeks. It’s finally been feeling better and this evening I hurt it by: Pulling a single basket of groceries into the hallway

ffxiv still consistently manages to make me cry now and then because it has such sweet little stories that touch close to home 😭

Modded stardew co op is healing me 😂 there are SO many new npcs to keep up with, but the aesthetics are incredible. Modders are actually insane, I can’t believe how much work went into all this. Feeling super relaxed and cozy after each session 🤍

I gotta say the most like...refreshing thing about Waterfox (or at least whatever extension combination I have for it) is that Google actually acts like it did before it went to shit. I just get a list of relevant websites without any AI synopsis or summary section

Modding stardew valley for the first time in my life. I think I just need to farm.

Why am I just now learning that the Duggars are from Arkansas and why am I not at all surprised
