Good Advice - Blog Posts
young artist posting your work online, heed my warning. im holding your face so gently in my hands, you have to stop caring about numbers right now and start caring about making the weirdest and most self-indulgent art you possibly can
Gentle reminder that often creativity decides to hibernate for a bit.
It’s okay. You’re not broken, you’re resting, and much like spring, creativity comes back.
"Stop saying 15 year olds with weird interests are cringe, they're 15" this is true however you should also stop saying adults with weird interests are cringe because who gives a shit
don't panic buy games because of the eshop shutdown!!!! the memes are not lying It is genuinely very easy to hack your 3ds!!! please do it!!!!

(don't follow video guides they are very often outdated and it's easier to make mistakes that way. this guide is very detailed with step by step instructions and they even have a support server in the event you have any trouble! i understand it might seem intimidating but risks of bricking or banning are very minimal at this point you will be glad you did it)
What would be your advice to you from five years ago?
I always regret not shooting my shot for friendship in classes that I sometimes think about them after the course is over (what could have been a great friendship). Be that fucking person and say ‘hello’ first. Just stop holding back.
I wanna tell you guys a secret to making friends and it's gonna blow your mind....
Talk to people
That's literally it
And tbh I literally just realized this- because like- for the past year or so I've been going up to random blogs and just "interacting" (technically talking with reblogs and asks) and in my head I've been like "my power to make people like me by annoying them somehow shall grow!" And I've just now realized- that's not a power, that's not a skill, that just talking to someone and being fucking respectful
And it's like
Wow
Because like even just saying "hello" at least opens up the option to start talking and exploring other things to say and interacting more and it's- it's genuinely fun, and most of the time leads to fun friendships
It's literally like
I used to be like "I wish I could he friends with this blogger but they'll never see my blog" but- yes they will, I just gotta show up in their ask box/reblogs and if they wanna talk or if they find me interesting all they gotta do it respond back and then conversations just keep going from there....
It seems like it should be obvious but I feel like it isn't because I've noticed some other people are like that sometimes where they're like "I wish I could be friends with this person but they'll never notice me T^T" and it's like- cool, I know you probably have anxiety, I know you're probably an introvert, but I've discovered that working yourself up just to say "hi" literally makes the person wanna talk to you more, especially if you're the one to talk first cause then they won't worry about you not liking them because guess what you'll never believe it- most of the time they feel the exact same way about talking to people and are like "if I speak they'll hate me" so just- if you wanna be friends with people just give them a quick little hello or hi to let them know you don't have them and you're open to conversate
Trust me, it does wonders

“I wish I was a girl.”
This comic was inspired from a conversation, that’s why it looks a bit awkward because I cut some things out. (I’m a drawer, not a keyboard. 😏 get it?…)
I hope that some people are able to relate to this, and know that your supported and its good to take ur time.
The only thing I can say about writing right now is that you don’t need to polish or even finish everything you write. Unfinished works hold value just as intrinsically as finished ones; if finishing a project holds no appeal, move on. Maybe one day you’ll return to it, find an idea to nurture and raise. Maybe you’ll never look at it again, but the words were still written. The sentences were crafted. This unfinished thing is a sketch, then, forgotten in the depths of your sketchbook; why should we hold writers to different standards than other artists? Play around and have fun. Finish projects if you want to; move on if you don’t. Don’t guilt yourself over something with no moral bearing. Just write.

Indeed we do, and this is how it works.
“We often want it so badly that we ruin it before it begins. Overthinking. Fantasizing. Imagining. Expecting. Worrying. Doubting. Just let it naturally evolve”

Welp…
Dark!Buddha: get attached to everything. develop attachments to whatever you see that are so profound you go insane
Spoken like a true hero (and ally.) 😌 Point made, loud and strong.
As someone who works a lot with Infernals and some other more “taboo” deities and subjects, I am SO glad to see this. I think we can all learn a thing or two from keeping an open mind.
can ppl stop shitting on demons please
Hell is, like, really, really big. And diverse. There are as many kinds of demons as there are spirits in general.
Not all of them are evil. They don’t all want your soul, or to tempt you, or to deceive you.
JUST LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE OKAY
Let's go, then.
Friendly reminder that you should
Write that fic
Draw your OC
Redesign that blorbo
Plan that comic how you want
Create the content you want to see
Be cringe
Be free
The only thing that matters is you having fun! Not what others think!
Step one: put your enemies hand in a panini maker-
