two attacks in my chain, which hit 224 levels today!

If you want to fight off the existential dread of capitalism, I highly recommend donating to your local food bank if you can afford to. I'm on SSI so I don't have a whole lot to give, so to maximize my impact and get the most good out of what little I can give I donate $5 to the food bank every month because the food bank can feed at LEAST 20 people with $5. They can buy food in bulk. As in, crates of food for a single dollar. Monetary donations go so much farther than your old cans of tomatoes or whatever.

And like! I can't change that I'm disabled and poor. I can't change the economic and political system I live under. But I can feed 20 people every month. So I do. Does it make a difference in the grand scheme of things? Maybe not. But it made a difference to those 20 people. That's a lot of people! That's a whole crowd!

And it's selfish because I do this specifically to make myself feel better. But those 20 people probably wouldn't call me selfish. His Holiness the Dalai Lama often says (paraphrasing) the way to be happy is to be kind and compassionate towards others, so if you want to be selfish be wisely selfish and help others. And he's not wrong! It helps! I feel better AND 20 people get an extra meal. Win win.

this is now closed! tysm to all who helped out!!! 🥰

emergency comms are open!

I also designed a new character who I’ll be playing in a TTRPG. This character is separate from my worldbuilding (though perhaps I’ll integrate them into my world in the future).

Meet Maeve, the porcelain doll automation!

doodle @artisticmintleaf inspired me to draw

the catboy dies maybe a few months later 🥰

nothing crazy, just a doodle that i ended up painting while zoned out listening to a video essay. lots of errors but it took an hour from start to finish so that’s par for the course lol. speedpaint and other stuff below the cut

speedpaint:

also, been pretty inactive on socials largely due to health issues. the fatigue and pain are ever present. there are a number of things i’m wanting to do (both art related and not) but who knows when my body’ll let me get around to it. saying this not in a “pity me” way though, just figured i’d share my status for anyone who’s curious!

Weirdly anti-millennial articles have scraped the bottom of the barrel so hard that they are now two feet down into the topsoil

4th of July plans?

nope, absolutely none, despite being an american i forget that holiday exists and i don’t really celebrate it tbh. /neu

my mom’s birthday, on the other hand, on july 5… now that’s something to party about /lh though she’s been in the hospital for a few days so her bday will probably be a chill day
