#but its hard sometimes

[katie-with-the-tea]

The weirdest and stupidest and most horrible part about being an adult is that you still have to Adult when your life is falling apart.

You still have to work. You still have to pay bills. You still have to be a loving and attentive parent. Get dressed in the morning. Buy groceries. Feed your dog and cat.

And wait for the next time it's safe to let go and fall apart yourself, knowing you'll have to pick up the prices the next day and do it all over again.

why do all the bad thoughts come when the sun is down, dark thoughts appearing when its dark

#saw that post once on not paying bad thoughts any attention after like 9 pm #but its hard sometimes #not too dark of thoughts #but they still hurt

[strangepersonwhispers]

the audacity of people who were once the most important part of your life and who you genuinely once upon a time couldn't live without and if you get to know that they were thinking something negative about you, you feel genuine pain in your body, and who are still around tho you learned to live without them and their opinions thinking that yes since i was once your most important i will always be your most important and if you dont give me the same importance *le gasp shocked pikachu face, how could you? you've changed. like yes!!! i did change, im better now not basing my entire self worth and my character on your likes and dislikes, ive changed and i found myself again underneath all the layers of you I've buried myself under. im finding myself again and again and again when i have new experiences with and without you. i am a fragile thing still learning to walk hand in hand with my past to my future where my wings would finally help me fly. i am still a chick with weak wings who is learning to trust my present self with the wounded child of my past. i am still a babe for whom the idea of walking with my present self is very frightening and all she wants to do is hide away and lick her wounds in the dark since that is the healing she learned . i am still the wounded, angry child crouching and baring her teeth and broken claws at people so that they would never get a chance to hurt her again. i am still the angry child that is ready for a fight and adrenaline courses through her veins 24/7 because she doesn't know when and how it will happen. but i am also still the child whose hands shake and body falters and eyes blur when adrenaline seeps in her veins. i am still a child who years for her future promise to herself of a quiet, peaceful home where she can shed her armour and settle down in soft blankets surrounded by soft things.

I'm rewatching Steven Universe and I will never forgive Fandom for what it did to her

#also watching it at age 19-20 as it was released and experiencing the resulting clusterfuck online fandom response was a wild trip #im finally rewatching it again at 25 and really really feel lucky to have seen it at the age i did #i have completely different perspective on it now that i have 3 young nephews and a neice where before i was in college #the music is still as incredible as it was back then #and the animation #i cant beleive people got honestly and truly upset and violently aggressive about characters being off model sometimes #early stevens voice though kills me after awhile...... the yelling .... but his characters growth and development also being reflected in #his voice changing as he grows up #they also go crazy hard on some scenes #who am i kidding the show was a masterpiece and ahead of its time

Will Swannie miss his wings? He’s been like that for about a year now, he probably gotten use to the wings and the pain in his calves/legs…would Donnie get like….phantom pain or something because of the missing wings? Would he in some way try to get them back or have a reminder of them? Will Donnie even try or want to dance again?

donnie doesn't usually dance on pointe anymore-- it was a rare occasion pre-curse, and now post, the physical demand is typically too much for him to handle. but when your little brother knows levitation magic, anything is possible for a special occasion.

generally speaking, though?

there's no way he's ever gonna want to stop dancing.

[ swanatello ] [ prev ] [ fin! ]

and... that's it! that's the end!

... well, the end of the main storyline, anyway! the end of the story for swannie that i wanted to tell. the au will still be around! <3 swanatello has pretty much always been built on the asks i've received about it, and i still have more tucked away in my hoard that i intend to get to at some point or another as little bonus side stories, and my askbox is always open as well...! and on that note--

thank y'all so, so much for your support on this magickal girl journey. i NEVER expected to get the amount of love or attention that i did for my silly little donniesona that was based on a pun, but i had so much fun with this comic and am so grateful to y'all <3 like i said, this entire au was really powered by the amount of asks i received about him and his story, and it was really such a fantastic experience for me all around. not including any non-canon crossover content, this comic is approximately 965 pages long! definitely wasn't my plan when i doodled him for the first time as a goof, haha.

thanks, gang. <3 i hope you enjoyed the ride, too.

#he does get phantom pains for his wings sometimes #but his ninpo wings definitely help fill that hole! and are also helpful when walking hard #also once again brownie points to those who spot the parallels #claps hands together. WELL. thats... it! thats the story! the main one anyways...! #im still kind of baffled that its technically finished now lol #thanks again <3 #swanatello #rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #tmnt #tmnt 2018 #tmnt 2k18 #rottmnt donnie #rottmnt donatello #rottmnt mikey #rottmnt michelangelo #rise donnie #rise donatello #rise mikey #donniesona #rottmnt au #rottmnt comic #rottmnt fanart #fidgetwing

It is Okay! #anyways. Watch this movie now or suffer my curse

This lil 4 year old from overseas said this in the most sincere way with the most adorable little accent...He really mulled over what the difference between his hands and mine could be. I think about it all the time.

#snail diaries #its hard to write comics where the punchline kinda depends on the accent or voice of a character #so i just gotta write an OI SCUZE ME sometimes

They both love Gotham, and I think they inspire each other to see the city in a new way.

Lan Wangji might be an unstoppable force, but Xie Lian has 800+ years of practice of being an immovable object.

(poll results here for context)

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #bonus comic #The most resounding conclusion the community came to agree on is thar Xie Lian is bad at cooking on purpose #and is stubborn to the point of refusing to let go of this feature (not a bug) of himself. #though if you practice being bad at something on purpose you do just…get bad. #Poor lan wangji probably had to watch him do horrendous food crimes in the kitchen. #crushing eggs in his fists and throwing it into the bowl or pan (shell and all). #Burning water. Throwing in ingredients based on the roll of a dice. Putting in leaves and cool rocks he found. #He is living his best life mind you. And I think as long as he is happy then let him make his potions. #This is *his* version of art therapy. It just shouldnt be fed to anyone. #lwj would probably try to make it more theraputic after realizing that the bad cooking skills were on purpose. But even then XL is a rock. #he will not do anything he does not want to. Including processing feelings. #Don't idealize that btw. You will do yourself no favours by ignoring hard emotions. Love and peace everypony; Its a hard world out there. #Hua Cheng and wwx hung out during all of this and have since become hunting buddies. #Sometimes its birds sometimes it's each other. For sport.

thinkin' about Bardaby and his illusion smoke...

#went on yet another bardaby bender. these are only part of it lmao #i am often seized by the fatal need to Draw Barnaby In Some Shape Or Form #but yes. thinking very hard about the illusion smoke #i feel like sometimes he uses it recreationally... mixed with other stuff to dilute it ofc #but it keeps the color! #im imagining that it can act sort of like a Mood Ring! #the core color that he exhales yk yk! #but using it full strength for proper illusions and such #he's gotta be careful about it! it'll fuck him up! #he's built up Quite The Resistance to illusions and illusion magic over his life #but everyone has their limits... #scribble salad #wh fantasy au #IM NOT USED TO DRAWING SMOKE. IT LOOKS BAD LMAO #i'll have to work on that! look up tutorials! Practice! #anyhow i think the other scribbles need their own post #its mainly bardaby and our little warlock... #there are three ways i love drawing barnaby #i love scribbling him angry. i love scribbling him with howdy. and i love scribbling him being soft w/ wally #side note i realized earlier that part of the reason why i love characters who are just so much bigger than everyone else #ex: poppy & barnaby #is bc then its like. they're the smaller guys' personal jungle gym lmao #free bed! free climbing wall! free bean bag! free Getting Tossed Around!!!! #all wrapped up with the wonderful bow of Friend!!!! #...my touch starvedness is showing isnt it. away with ye demons!!!

I wonder how many times Clark and the batkids + Alfred revived Bruce with the Lazarus Pit and just never told him abt it

#he pieces it together later but i mean. its so hard for him to miss now that hes looking back at it #like why is he always always always cold with a turtleneck on and heating blasting #why is his appetite so scarce? how come his sleep deprived body withstands hours - sometimes DAYS - of patrol #and functions perfectly? how come time passes by but he stays the same? why wont clark and dick stop giving gim #*him looks of loving grief? #why does harley slam her fists on her head when she sees him? ' no no no you're gone. you're GONE. I KNOW you are!' #why does selina smile at him with such heavy pity ' sorry bruce. i don't do ghosts' #bruce wayne #dc #dc comics #batman #batfamily #clark kent #dick grayson #jason todd #bc they def exclude the cloning. they dont want another bruce. they want THEIR bruce. tim #like can you imagine jason getting up in tim's face and just ' if you're not gonna stand by us then stay out of our way' #dark bruce? tired. dark BATKIDS? sign me the FUCK up #batdad #text
