If anyone speaks Epson photo printer and knows how to beat them into submission override the low ink/replace cartridge notification, please tell me your ways

I haven't been able to print anything in months (first due to color errors, which i still haven't figured out bc I can't actually print smh), and I've looked at guides online but nothing has worked ;0;

ngl ever since this post, im designing and cutting out these stickers out at home which is a very time consuming and repetitive labor process only to know that there's thieves out there selling my designs at a fraction of the cost is extremely discouraging like. what is the point. what is even the fucking point.

#sticker sales and patreon is how im paying bills and buying groceries rn so it just fucking winded me #and im trying to catch up on send backs and junes stuff but im sitting her wondering how long itll be until these designs are stolen too #what is the point in trying to make art for a living if all thats ever gonna happen is that it gets stolen #i cannot beat the price of big box names like amazon and other rip offs stealing designs and selling them for pennies #when it cost me a good chunk of the a $5 sticker cost to actaully make the sticker like its not all take home that includes shipping #and ink and paper and ect #i literally cannot compete with big box stores that steal shit i cannot #so what even is the point #sara shush #tw vent #art theft

I was ranting in the drawing room this morning about my issues with space on my google account and everyone said they just pay the 2 euros a month. Are you insane? This is so not alpha male behavior of you, i will NEVER surrender money to a machine. In fact i have a lot of pride about being a fan of gacha game stories yet i have never paid a cent on any of them. Then my favorite guy said im a luddite and i started ranting harder about the fate and fall of mankind being sealed the moment prometheus gave us fire, and he suggested maybe it's the invention of the wheel that doomed us... nay, im sure it's the fault of our aquatic ancestors that started walking on land... do you think im still sympathetic to these people...?

#he was drawing so i hope he'll forget #there were also some nice animation students there today #as for everyone else ive lost hope in them liking me. except **** i dont think he could hate anyone ever. hes really the sweetest #gave me a sticker yesterday thats sooo cuteee ive been watching him design them for weeks #he makes them for his niece back home...! how cute #i also learned hes lying to his family about being in business school...

"my interpretation is more meaningful than yours" this "___ piece of media is objectively bad" that. yeah, well have you considered I'm having fun? 🤨 have you considered that I strive to be joyful rather than striving to prove the worth of my opinions? 🙄

#analysis of meaning is great but dont let art elitism/perfectionism convince you you need to have the ultimate and perfect #reading or interpretation #or that the joy and entertainment you derive from a piece of media is directly correlated with how intellectual you can be about it #sometimes the goal is just entertainment #and thats okay #this is not to discourage media literacy or criticism of any kind #but it is to discourage people making others feel bad for not being #'smart enough to understand the TRUE interpretation of xyz' #like some of you are starting to sound like rick and morty 'you need a high IQ for this show' dudebros #esp when you say shit like 'cant ppl do better analysis then a 3rd grader' for shit that literally comes down to personal opinion #like ik some ppl miss the entire point of a piece very often and i find that frustrating too #but lets be real some of yall just attack other peoples interpretations cause they contradict your own #and not cause theyre actually problematic or misinterpretations #'a nihilist reading of this character is much more meaningful than an autistic reading' what if i killed you #both is good. jesus i thought yall liked bisexuals. #I AM SLAPPING A COEXIST STICKER ON YOUR FOREHEAD but instead of religious symbols its fandom #multiple readings can exist at once please ppl for gods sake #fandom #long notes #important

it's always surprising to me just how boring kpop fans can be. i get it's pop and people usually like primarily pop going into it but <3 get a grip idc

#a little edm inspiration won't kill you i swear #im watching a comp of someone defending 'noise music' and of course skz is there. they all have similar sounds #DISTRICT 9 IS IN HERE TOO??? sorry im still watching it #it's crazy to find out what other people don't like. makes me realize just how much ive curated my experience #GODS MENUUUUU????????? omfg people are boring #i cant defend sticker nct but i can defend their debut song they put into this vid #i have to be done cause this vid is long #me getting recs from this vid #EDIT TAEMIN IDEA IN HERE????????? THATS LITERALLY MY GIRL YOU WOULDNT GET IT #KILLING ME IKON????????????? THATS LITERALLY ONE OF MY FAVS OF THEIRS #that should tell you a lot about me actually bc i don't like the one they're known for

[paper-cities]

But how obsessed are we talking here?

Uhhm. Basically I've known them for like a month and I would die for them. Does this answer the question

#i have a hoodie w them on it + my gf keeps saying it looks like something a mom would buy her 12yr old son at walmart. i love it to death #uhhh ive been reading fic and lots n lots of analysis on them!!! #i watched 2011 and am in the middle of 1999 rn #like im not even completely consummed by hxh necessarily im more so drowning in Killua. #i need this lil guy to get a HUG and some warm MILK #also trans icon Alluka my beloved?? i expected to be annoyed w her for some reason but actually #a+++++ #i fuckin love how they did bisky too. o is that a potential love interest? PSYCH thats a 50yr old #anyways i plan on drawing killugon so so so much if my dumb brain/body will allow #i need more merch!!!!!!!! I NEED MERCH #i NEED TO MAKE STICKERS i think. maube that would cure me (<--- gremlin w all the diseases)

as much as i appreciate all depictions of trans masc people in art, this isnt some kind of put down like omg you gotta draw ALL your art like this but... its honestly quite nice to see some trans masc characters that  have breasts  and are completely fine with that. like i get that top surgery scars have just become the visual short hand for ‘trans man/,masc’ character but thats not the reality for every trans masc person, not all trans masc people experience top dysphoria all the time, or even at all, and i feel like if we normalized the idea of breast tissue on men it would help to lessen the social stigma of men with breasts, cis or trans. i just love to see trans masc characcters who still have their breasts because its a reflection of the sort of trans experiences and bodies i am familiar with

#like seeing yourself in media is unendingly important #people who get to see themselves in media on a regular basis may not understand but seeing a character that looks like you #and isnt just a 'hahah fat tranny' joke that is actually extremely good for your mental well being #and you know...its part of the reason why i opted to make vali look the way he does because you know how many people #have come up to me expressing gratitude that someone would ever write someone who looked remotely like them #and wasnt just the butt of some cruel joke #and that they didn't really consider that it was possible for a character of this type to be considered desirable by fandom culture at large #because lez be honest fandom spaces can be very "pretty f/ggots only pls uwu' #again this isnt to put down anyone who DOES draw most of their trans characters with top surgery scars like #thats still important too i get really happy when i see art that includes that because its like the artist and i #are shaking hands like same hat #but even more so when i see a person or an experience that better reflects my own #where i had never seen it before treated with any reverance or respect #i wanna include that same feeling for others in my writing since i cant draw lmfaooo #to me thats the importance of diversity. not a brownie sticker you get to absolve you of being 'called out' #but something you do because you want to express and experience a fuller breth of human experience. not just the most acceptable versions #and help others see themselves in the art they consume #anyway thank u for coming to my ted talk #ooc. #tbd. #i hope this makes a single lick of sense lmfaooo #its 3 am leave me alone #im easily amused and also starving for content that gives me a single smidgen of shared life experience between trans people #this is why if you wanna see yourself in something..U GOTTA MAKE IT YOURSELF and u end up surprised at how many others were #also unknowingly looking for the same thing #and are like hey. thanks for that. i needed that. #and im like same bro :') #and tbf top surgery scars in art MIGHT be that for some people and i love that for them #but for me its seeing beautiful men who dont have 100 percent flat chests because that is apart of the trans male experience too #fuck just the male experience in general

[gregoftom]

mannnn who up tearing up over the sticker scene

#txt #i just starting thinking about how terrified greg must have been :((((( #he made a mistake and why would tom protect him now when he can pick and choose so much more freely who he wants #logically i'm sure he knows matsson is indeed pissed over what he did but he doesn't hate greg at least not enough to get rid of him #yet that kind of phrasing he believes in an instant bc he's in such a state of fear you can see it in his eyes in his movements #he's so afraid he's gonna go right back to being homeless to his last 20 bucks and no one will save him. no one will love him. no one will #care. but tom!!!!!! oh GOD tom!!!! says i got just enough capital!!!! i got you! and then says I GOT YOU AGAIN! just so greg didn't miss it! #you hear me? i got you!!! i'll keep you! #can i come with you nero? YES YOU CAN THATS NOT EVEN A QUESTION #and the sheer. like. shock. of being chosen like that. greg is just staring at tom as he plucks the sticker off #stock fucking still as tom puts it on even swaying slightly with the gentle force of tom putting the sticker on him bc he #can't quite believe it for a second #then he breaks into a dopey sideways smile and tom tells him gently again i got you. #you got me? even after everything? even after i made a mistake? even though i hurt you? even though i tried to make my way #and failed? even after i slapped you? even after i fought back in the bathroom? you still want me? #it just. man idk it hits me right in the kokoro....

[pineappical]

tumblr user pineappical I’m begging you to make a inprint or some sort of shop bc I need teddy bear lasso hanging on my wall

#i actually want to make some tl stickers too... #im a little shy (CRINGE) about making prints of my art rn but if yall are interested then we'll see !!! \o/ #also since i mostly draw fanart i have no idea how itll go if i set those up as prints x_x #ahh thats for future me to figure out!! for now i should probably focus on opening up comms properly LOL #pn.ask

guy who’s bad at regulating his emotions over losing items when he misplaces his water bottle

#camera talks #fucked upp #I had a breakdown (fully yelling and wouldn’t accept anything but my actual water bottle even though I knows it’s irrational- #literally you could give me an exact replica and I would find a reason not to want it when I’m like that. it’s bad #and I know that it’s not right and I’ll feel bad eventually but I haven’t gotten to that stage yet. I’m still feeling upset and angry #worst part is we didn’t find my water bottle so I’m Not drinking water unless necessary (took my pills and that was it) #which is a bad idea all around medically. getting dehydrated will fuck up a lot for me #so I know I just need to get over this but it’s so small and stupid like. #how do I even lose my water bottle? people don’t lose track of things like that I’m just bad at being human #and this is the second time I’ve lost a water bottle. the first time I wasn’t Too attached but it was pretty bad #this water bottle had stickers and fun memories on it so thats hard and I don’t like losing my stuff. it makes me feel shitty #ugh also #vent #sorry #it’s like 11 at night I just need sleep at this point

My mom just asked for a latin translation of "protect trans kids" to put on a sticker, which quickly devolved into me and my mom discussing ancient queer history, modern queer history, and latin grammar because we both are adhd

#we landed on “protege trans liberos” despite “muni trans liberos” matching vibes better #a normie is gonna be able to figure out “protege” #muni (from munio munire) means “safeguard” and is the root wood for wirds like community #and municipal #protege (from protego protegere) means shield #so close enough #i gave up in finding an actual word for transgender #“trans” is literally the root word even if it literally means “across” in latin #i guess a runner up would be whatever romans called eunichs #but i went to a catholic university so my knowlege of queer rome is lacking #closest thing we got to ancient queer history was that one catullus poem #and liberos means children #its in the accusative because thats how imperative phrases work #i didnt actually ask my mom why she was making a protect trans kids sticker #but im guessing it has something to do with her two trans kids #she was delighted to learn about gilgamesh's nonbinary bestie tho #william whitaker my beloved

Girl HELPPP it is so impossible to try to find a place to sell digital art without every single recommendation being redbubble. I KNOW it's the easiest I know I know, I just really do not like the quality of things I've gotten from there and I've heard they've gotten worse with fees 😔 how is a girlie supposed to try to sell art like this?

#that and all the responses im getting from searches is all heres how to sell your original traditional art pieces to real galleries!!! #like. no. thats not what im doing here #i want to sell prints most of all just cause i always love them so much i want to be able to provide them to others #but shirts and stickers and charms and aaaa!!! theyre all so cool! but i cant make them myself!! #everything takes like 50% of the profits too #buddy im trying to make a living off of this ive got student loans coming in a month or so #you cant take half my stuff >:( thats mean #but i must be really bad at looking for things cause im not getting any sites that actually do what i want 😔 #id be okay with giving up everything else if i can just. find a way to sell high quality prints #and i get to keep the fucking MONEYYY #IT SHOULDNT BE THIS HARD WAAAAA #randy rambles

i love chatting with my lute instructor because everywhere you look you'll see people resting their right pinky on the soundboard and she says DO NOT do that you will wear down the wood and it's only like that in paintings because they had to sit still for so long and that way it's easier

#i'll take her word for it the wood is so delicate thats reason enough for me not to touch it #ive decided i want to continue figuring out sticker... getting out the 5 pages of chord shapes i have... #and trying to look up online how to make the shapes. and which chords i even need in the first place. #i mean i did the whistle and bwuh-bwuh buwu bwuh bwuh bass by ear

me doing the marriage thing with noah is very funny because the only reason I got here is that I slowly crawled my way through the stages of feelings that I go through which is typically making fun of them -> saying I like them and playing around with the idea of shipping with them but doing so in a self-deprecating way e.g. I'm not worthy of being happy so I'll dance around the subject -> waiting a year or longer to finally feel comfortable with saying I like them and that my feelings are valid -> rearrange ship lore to be more self indulgent and sometimes the very last step is to marry them so congrats noah you've gone up in the world (become fake husband)

#i just go through the five stages of grief with selfshipping LEGITIMATELY. #so now im like. going back into effies lore and figuring out where their relationship sits with vayne #which will be elaborated on in a bit (probably tomorrow morning) because no matter what if noah and effie are secretly wed or publicly wed #vayne will be soooo fucking seethy and still 'pining' after effie #but now its a matter of how long did noah and effie know eachother before they decide to elope. how long have they been wed. #need the details #bc it took vergil and gabriel like almost 30 years to tie the knot and aubrey and tommy was like 8. #so. you know. ill think about this tomorrow and maybe between brainstorming stickers ill write a little fic #i really do genuinely think that drace would love noah as her brother in law. they seem to be close in the game #i mean close enough to ship them together. i dont for obvious reasons but some people do and thats okay #bumping up effies age to 30 since im almost 30 and it makes the age gap between noah and effie not as weird (noah is 36) #im just. wehh. #next ill say caius and rowan are married for real just watch. maybe. idk. i think it would be funny if they did marry #like before ro gets hit with the crystal beam and in the early days of caius being yeul's guardian #so like TECHNICALLY even through space and time because its just ro being reincarnated or broken out of crystal #theyre still married in the eyes of the lord (etro) and caius fumes about it but ro forgets #THIS ISNT ABOUT THEM THOUGH FORGET YOU SAW ANYTJING #val.txt #otp: to be alone
