[Vent art] The voice inside my head.

One of the main people responsible for my love of Souls games just got even cooler. 😎💚

One day I'll figure out how to stop screwing things up.

Just as a heads up, If I stop being "Amper", it's because it's not fun anymore being the alien. I'd rather find a version of me I can appreciate, even if I'm not appreciated elsewhere. That's what I'm working towards.

Something new. #artist #oc #originalcharacter #mspaint

I won't be sharing my Twitch recap this year, or making my first end-of-year monthly art summary either. It doesn't feel right with the way things are right now.

I'm going to give fair warning to anyone who sees this: I am really struggling to hold myself together, and the stuff I go into in this thread might be pretty open, and potentially triggering. I don't have a mental note of everything I'm about to say, I just feel like I need to say something... 🧵

Kirby is Nintendo's best franchise, and it's not even close. How does this series continually manage to go above and beyond with pretty much every single game? 🤩 I might actually need to save for a Switch 2 after all...

The weather app on my PC: Yeah don't worry it's not raining right now, it'll be dry until like 7pm this evening. 🙂 The sky literally all day so far: 🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️

I don't know if I'll ever play Pokemon Legends Z-A. But it's nice to know they've finally decided to give Froslass some much needed love and attention. 💛

It's nice to know that there are still people who can talk about Homestuck without absolutely shitting on it and everyone who liked it. Also just makes me feel even more like 90% of the people who hate it never took a look at it themselves and can't form independent thoughts.

Saw a thing, did it for myself. Feels sort of pertinent right now, in a way. Wanna do it as well? Here you go: love-language.co

Possibly the funniest piece of Dark Souls 2 slander I've ever seen in a Twitch chat. 🤣

I've seen people talk about a lot of different problems with Mario Kart World. I can only take them at their word, as I do not have a Switch 2, or the game. But the real great atrocity with the game that NO ONE talks about is that Dry Bowser is NOT IN THE PLAYABLE ROSTER. 😡

Just beat Champion Gundyr hitless for the first time. 😎 Possibly my favourite boss fight in Dark Souls 3? Definitely top five at least.

Finally remembered to watch the Homestuck animated pilot. It is... a lot to digest in 11 minutes. I don't hate it, I think it's okay, but it will not make any sense to anyone unfamiliar with the comic. Though I suppose the comic itself is just as confusing and chaotic at times. 🤔

Just misread the file type ".mpeg" as ".mpreg", my brain isn't just cooked, its burnt to a crisp. 🤣

"Tinky Winky Controversy" is probably the funniest sub-heading to a section of a Wikipedia article I've ever seen. And rather fittingly, the actual "controversy" is laughable too. 🤣

I REALLY don't like talking about politics, but I'm so sick of political parties who are just different flavours of the same thing. They've all got their ways of pretending to care, when all each of them really want is for us to be controlled and quiet under their thumb. No one owns my life but me.

The Online Safety Act was (and still is) absurd, and so is this idea for Digital ID cards. This petition already has over 2 million signatures and rapidly climbing, but I'll still share it anyway, because I'm not gonna hide from how ridiculous this stuff is. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

I need someone to explain the appeal of the Dynasty Warriors games to me. Because all I've ever seen is a series where there's always 400 enemies on screen, but 398 of them never do anything besides back away when you approach them, so literally what is the point in them being there? 🤔

I feel like Pokemon would be a fundamentally better game series if they simply lowered the damage dealt by super-effective attacks. X2 damage when weakening one type, and X4 damage when weakening both types, basically renders defences obsolete in most cases. It should be X1.5 and X2 respectively. 🤔

It's actually impressive that she managed to stay on the road for THIS long. 🤭 #CallieCollection

I'm not exaggerating when I say Callie had literally been at this job for no more than six minutes, and this wasn't even her first incident. 🤣 #CallieCollection

I always find it odd but also kinda cute when people watching a livestream or something feel the need to announce what country they're from when they say hi, assuming they're from a country where English isn't the first language. 🤭

I've just been reminded about the fact that Vivziepop is making a pilot for an animated series of Homestuck and I do not know how to feel about this. 😶

While I've got Dark Souls on the brain, I'm not sure I understand how I can know DS3 like the back of my hand and get through most of the game without too many issues, but I struggle so much in Elden Ring. 🙃

Got High Lord Wolnir as the final boss in a Dark Souls 3 randomiser and I just killed him by free-aim firing a crossbow to destroy his last golden bracelet lmfao. 😎 I wish I was recording it. 😭

Fuck it. I drew an orange. Now I can at least say I did something today. 🥳 #art #mspaint #orange #winning #yep #OkayImDoneNow

Wanted to do some art today but I cannot focus right now. 🙃 I haven't drawn much over the last few months because of life stuff and mental health stuff, but maybe I can look to my muse to help me get back in the zone. 💛🐸

I hope one day people reach a collective decision to stop naming movies "A/The [insert media property here] Movie", and remember that it's actually a good thing to engage in creative thought processes. Same goes for games that use similar naming conventions to Untitled Goose Game. It's boring now.

So I recently realised that Amper's wings somewhat resemble electricity pylons, and this was not at all intentional. 🤣 Maybe it was a subconscious inspiration? I did used to think they were kinda cool looking when I was a kid. 🤔 #mspaint #art #oc #originalcharacter

So the same thing the UK is doing right now, with precisely the same false pretenses. Everyone knows this isn't about safety, it's about control. Don't just block access in Mississippi and let that be it. Make it the start. Make it clear this law cannot work, serves no one, and is not welcome.

Something I've been wanting to do for a while but put off for various reasons has finally been finished: a first proper update to Amper's design since I first created her back in 2014! Mah baby gurl has come so far. 💛⚡ #art #mspaint #oc #originalcharacter

I need a break. I can't get my body, my mind, or anything around me under control, and I just don't have it in me to keep taking punch after punch anymore. I'm running out of hope that things will get better. I don't know when/if you'll hear from me again. I'm sorry.

Being English is pretty neat, really. 😎⚽🏆🥳

I reposted someone else say this a while ago, but if you are a UK citizen, please sign this petition. This is a system put in place under false pretenses by fear mongers who have no genuine interest in anyone's online safety, and which can never work anyway. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

This is stupid. "Only takes a few minutes" my ass, the website it's supposed to send me to doesn't even work.

Just now realising how many of the artists I followed from The Other Place and then found again when I moved over here don't really post much/at all anymore. 😭

I always knew there was something about outer space I didn't like... 😨🌛 #Calypart

Why do I torture myself by trying to draw things I've never attempted before while being too lazy to look up proper pose references? 🤣 "I can see exactly how I want it to look in my mind, so SURELY I can replicate it in practice!"

I'm probably the only person in the world to hold this opinion, but the Scadutree Avatar is one of the coolest looking bosses in Elden Ring. 💚🖤 Also its battle OST is really damn good. 🎶

Also as an addition; sign this petition ASAP if you're someone in the UK. Rather than just sitting around and doing fuck all, we need to make it clear that this Bullshit OSA won't work. Ever. Nor do folk fucking want it. Contact your MPs about the bill too. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

Thinking about whether or not I should make a second account for NSFW stuff... What is it that usually prompts people to keep that stuff separate? 🤔

I think I just hit a point of being stressed by so many different things that now my mind suddenly feels numb to it all. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I don't know. It at least feels better than what I can only describe as mental paralysis.

I'm just never ready for it... 😳 #mspaint #art #oc #originalcharacter
