Just when I think I'll get to have a calm day at work? Nope. FFS. I'm really hating this job.

Still trying to will myself to do stuff. I'm pissy and angry at my job, and HR gave me the chance to speak up on how to fix the situation - but fun lesson for y'all if you didn't know: HR is not your friend. They look out for the best interests of the company.

Cat wandered in front of the camera during the #aurora long exposure

I got recognized on a Facebook post today. Made me so happy!

That money could’ve ended homelessness in the US, or established UBI for every American, student loan erasure, or supercharged every creative industry in existence to pay artists better, instead of, yknow, blowing it on dead malls full of Elegy of Emptiness statues for rich people I hate it here

I didn't get half of what I'd planned to do done, but at least I managed to: - Helped set up the espresso machine. - Washed my bedsheets and faux fur blankets - Made my bed - Did my laundry - Set up the new cat fountain - Went through 3 totes in the kitchen - Hung up pictures - Purged 4 XMas totes

Decided that since I don't know how to rest and have been going nonstop since 5:20 in the morning, that I'm not going to rework my Patreon and website this weekend. Too much crammed into one day and I don't want to halfass it. Plus I gave my mom Norovirus, so I think we're both kinda just ...done.

Still looking for input

Please assume the position

I like Fridays at my new job. Because I can sit at a desk (all our desks are shared in a rotation) by the window and actually see outside. I think a lot of businesses take that for granted. It makes the day pass a lot more peacefully. Being trapped in artificial light murders the soul & efficiency.

What’s your favorite shark species? Mine is definitely the blacktip reef shark. It’s not the most interesting or special looking one out there but I somehow really like them.

I've bought the MP3 player ...I just have to load the thing. Let the revolution against greedy corporations and evil politicians commence!! Let's take back our sanity and our lives!!!

@davis.social I know you will give me a good opinion! To NSFW on main or no? Is it more beneficial to have a completely SFW main account? Or is all art regardless of rating good to keep in one place for more reach?

Good morning Tis Friday Let's make it through one step at a time 💖💖💖 Today will be a good day 😤 I won't let it be a bad day 😤💖 We got this 💪

I think I'm good at conveying emotions. I don't emote a lot irl so it shows up more in my work. I really want to express a feeling with my art rather than just ...mindless consumption.

beloved (derogatory) by the sea

NO PEDESTALS OUR WORK IS NOT US GREAT ART CAN COME FROM BAD PEOPLE

Completely random question: Should I go back to my Sakebobomb name? I loved that name, I was just worried big bad Nintendo would come after me. 😅

I'm going to be getting my Patreon page back up and running this weekend. If you're interested in signing up, PLEASE! By all means! I will be creating a poll for what everyone would like to get from it. Also, I'm planning on making access to my discord server open to Patreon subscribers!

I swear my mom loves me.

Oh my lord. So turns out I didn't have food poisoning yesterday. The entire office is getting hit with Norovirus. I went straight from a sinus cold to stomach flu in the timespan of a week.

Now I'm debating the usefulness of the after dark account. Thoughts? Opinions?

Hi! I'm Cheru, an illustrator who makes anime & anthro art & a lot of pin-up! This is my NSFW account. Want more? Follow my main: @cherusake.bsky.social Tags include: #Art | #NSFW | #OC | #Furry Main OCs: #Cheru | #Kaori | #Alex | #Kumori | #Ja'Ren | #Isabella | #Shadla Info: cherusake.carrd.co

Alright I'm gonna ask straight up: When I open my store, what products do you want to see, and would buy from me?

I am having a week!! First the breakdown yesterday, now woke up with food poisoning. If I don't make it past my probation period ...welp...

Apparently it's #PortfolioDay again! Hi! I'm Cheru, and I draw anime style art including Fanart and OCs. I also make comics, including Requiem Mask and The Refuge!

Nothing like having a sobbing breakdown at work! Huzzah!

The Hiveworks Artist Guild has released a public statement alleging years of labor abuses, financial mismanagement, and misconduct at Hiveworks at the hands of Xellette “Xel” Velamist and Isabelle “Isa” Melançon. Read their full statement at: cartoonist.coop/hiveworks-gu...

This is one of the struggles I'm facing. I am disabled, live with my senior mother, with inflated rent, and I am exhausted from burnout. Trying to will myself to go from my full time job to doing more computer sitting is really hard. I would kill to make a living wage as only an artist.

i often see people saying stuff like "you can draw comics while also having a day job" and it's like TRUE on its face, i never suggest people quit their day jobs to make comics haha. never. but it depends a LOT on the kind of comics, and for whom. and...how disabled you are, family life, etctera

I did it... I made a naughty account~ Go follow @cheru-afterdark.bsky.social

Really debating setting up a separate NSFW account. Why? Because I know I draw it, you know I draw it, but I kind of want to have somewhere I can send people who ask about my art without me look at them like this when they see the spicy content to see if they're gonna judge me:

Yeah, I'm realizing I won't be able to be a full time artist until I actually start arranging things to do so. So, I hope you'll all support me and help me build my livelihood!

Don't forget to pet your fish cat!

Artists, quote with your faces!

Someone is cuddly tonight.

I am tickled pink that I made friends with a bunch of random Fallout fan girls back in 2015, and now I get to see one of them working on the live Fallout show as a creature creator. These women, that I'm proud to call my friends, are so amazing and I love that we were brought together by a game.

I decided to go for a walk this morning to start being nicer to my body. "The body craves movement!" Well, apparently not while still on the tail end of a cold. I came home sweating buckets, hopped in the shower to wash clean, getting dressed made me sweat buckets all over again...

I have so many ideas and plans that putting them in order of what to do first is leaving me stymied!

I pebble with funny and interesting tiktoks... My best friend, who lives far away, gets the funnel last because we don't video chat often...

Me yesterday: I'll sleep and my cough will feel a little better tomorrow! Me this morning: •instantly chokes on her water upon waking, aspirates, has an asthma attack, now is coughing like she has pneumonia•

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders. Aluminum is an ADJUVANT. It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine. That’s it.

human artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you! ✨

Holy moly shite hit the fan at work and I've barely been able to breathe the last couple of days. Just sayin' I'm still alive for now.

get your flu shot and WEAR A MASK IN PUBLIC INDOOR SPACES we literally don't need to live like this!! we almost got rid of the flu ENTIRELY when most of society was masking it would be more ideal for places to have better ventilation, but that's obviously not happening anytime soon

Thought my cat was snoring loudly down the hallway. Nope. It's my lungs wheezing uncomfortably from this cold.
