I saw some AI-related ads while doomscrolling and it made me sad. I took 45 minutes to get a better understanding of the fundamentals, and now I feel better. It's not perfect, but this is what effort looks like.

went back to my roots with this one...

apparently I got logged out of bsky and for some reason didn't put in a new password so now that's changed and I'm back

#絵かゆ daki not daki I wanted a comfy Okayu pic

goodnight

if I'm staying up till 3, I'm having trouble falling asleep and I may end up being awake until 4 pretty sure that's a sign of insomnia and I have to fix my sleep schedule and physical health. stat. also had to get a small filling the other, so I'm pretty ashamed I treat myself like this.

Was considering starting sketching for Okayu, but my pen nib is just about spent, so I'm using it sparingly until the new ones arrive hopefully later today or some time tomorrow.

Decision made Okayu art next

who's next?

#ぺこらーと it's so cold I'm thinking about summer...

goodnight

progress added a label since I'm nowhere near done

accursed hands...

Realizing more errors when I'm sketching. You ever just get really frustrated with a sketch that you walk it back as far as possible, or just delete the entire thing?

I kind of wonder if I'm doing this right...

fuck hotline miami is hard

Pekora will be next

and for anybody up in the New England area... bundle up and please be safe

I've removed a lot of the flowers from the island, most of which are in storage. I've had to dispose of a good handful of them as well, and I plan on moving around some housing. Some inclines have been taken down along with bridges, I'll be building new ones and probably moving a lot of stuff... 1/2

Now comes the big question... who's up next

#らみあーと it's missing her logo, but apart from that I'm super proud

I think I'll revamp my island this year. I want to update the second and third layers to looks a bit better. Clean up a few things here and there, tear down some features that I don't think looked all that great in hindsight.

dashstar* been stuck in my head such a banger track 2021 was a bit of a sleeper year for me in terms of EDM mid to late-COVID times was strange

#laplus_artdesu Posted this on Twitter a while back, and figured I should wake up my bsky acct. This is La+ Darknesss! And she's been inducted as my first official hololive fanart!

#かなたーと I wanted this one to be super special to me... She's graduating on her 6th anniversary... which also happened to fall on my birthday...

self-sona that I repolished back in 2024, getting a bit of a new look now that I've gotten better

How the year started // How it ended

Oh my god, I feel like the sun is dyin' The light is gone, we're movin' on Don't stop 'till you beard the lion Oh my god, I feel numb but that's how I like it Against the wall for the curtain call Bleed out if you can't deny it

For some reason I didn't get exact confirmation of how to swap email addresses I didn't realize it could take a bit for it to register hopefully that won't count against me (sorry about that)

I wish I could upload animal crossing screenshots easily

I think I have bad drawing days right now if there was some way to shake it off that'd be great hair sucks to draw, almost wanted to crash out after restarting the drawing 5 times

should be a yearly thing, but remember to change your passwords if you protect your socials, you protect your private info that they want to take from you the internet is not what it used to be surf safe

It feels so rewarding to get to this part of Yume 2kki.

honestly had a hard time sleeping tonight for some reason my body just didn't want to accept sleep despite being comfy in bed I was up until nearly 5am trying to fall asleep probably the latest I stay up now since an all-nighter isn't really what I plan on

should've added one more thing to this year's goals I wanted to get some kind of writing in. There was this story I had in mind since the earlier half of this decade, and I wanted to dedicate a bit of time to it when I could.

chiic jooj (goodnight)

needs to get warmed back up

#TOWART 練習で描いたやつ

Until January 15th, I will curate Twitter to my own interests before shit hits the fan. To all artists and cosplayers that made Twitter their hub for interaction and networking, I'm sorry. You deserve better. People have lost their common sense. At least here you'll be able to breathe.

Well, this is a good sign. It was all notifs from those I follow, but it's good that there's more activity.

AI should've remained a TOOL Not a REPLACEMENT TWO DIFFERENT WORDS

2026 GOALS: - SURVIVE - BETTER JOB CHANCES? - STABLE INCOME - FIND SUCCESS - satiate my indulgences - improve my art skills by drawing 2-3 times a week - comms retry?

If I can offer any advice to everyone going into next year, it's this: Get some rest. Your body needs to recharge. Relax. Get some sleep. Wake up refreshed and energized. You aren't missing out on anything by going to bed before midnight. You've got time. Rest.

Oh my god, I feel like the sun is dyin' The light is gone, we're movin' on Don't stop 'till you beard the lion Oh my god, I feel numb but that's how I like it Against the wall for the curtain call Bleed out if you can't deny it

Oh that's right, Chinese Zodiac for next year is Horse. Interesting, because I'm one. But you know who else is horse?

WHY IS THE YEAR ENDING???
