when florence and the machine said "I find that happiness is an extremely uneventful subject" and when romeo x juliet said "a simple life with you would be paradise" and johnathan coulton said "it's okay, I like you in glasses" and everything everywhere all at once said "in another life I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you"
(edit: I made a longer thing with more examples here)
Everyone talks about the joys of someone else being super invested in your OCs and while this undoubtedly feels absolutely awesome, I think there's also something to be said about the joy of being invested in someone else's OCs too. There's just vibes you get out of some people's casts of characters that you can't get anywhere else with their own unique flavor from that person, and they're just sitting there in relative obscurity spawned completely out of someone's mind with no media involvement or anything. Special kind of feeling
Sorry, last one, swear!! I'll try and finish this by the 10th and then I will leave you all alone. I'm experiencing some long missed joy in creating this, please forgive my impatient excitement
This month's herbologist reward is the dandelion! These plants have fortitude, and have followed us irrepressibly all over the globe. They are fascinating, sometimes overlooked but full of interesting folklore and facts! If you like these prints (and more) please consider joining my patreon!
Also, as everyone knows - times have been real tough. I don't want to go into it too deeply, but my patreon has been steadily shrinking all year (understandably) and my costs to run it have risen at least three times. If you're able to share or promote my work, to anyone who you'd think like it, to your followers, to your friends, thank you. It's been a really intense year, and I don't want to be doom and gloom just yet, but things are tough. Thank you to everyone who has supported my work, monetarily, or not. You are the best and the reason I keep creating 💖
It's wishful thinking, but lets get Purim trending this year.
Let's all make it, be big and loud and impossible to ignore. Let's flaunt our costumes, brag with our food, share our joy. Let's try to turn this website upside down.
Let's admit it, Purim fits the Tumblr spirit. Let's put it everywhere for one day(two days)
Let's make the holiday all about Jewish survival and celebration of our joy big.
Thanks so much again to the HUNDREDS of y’all who’ve already pre-ordered my upcoming book! 🥺💖
Hoping to share more sneak peeks and snippets on the road to release day, so here’s another close up of the cover art for now! (Did I mention there are gonna be some color pages? 👀)

was looking through some older art and I found this Keyleth sketch I made years ago when I was actively listening to Critical Role. I decided to post it unpolished because I like this sharp and dynamic energy that usually gets lost as I process the art more.
no please dont apologise for getting excited about your life its genuinely freeing and contagious to see people get happy about living (genuinely . life hard and sometimes i get tunnel visioned on bad stuffs and your life recounts remind me that Hey wait things Can Be Fun and Good)
I've always felt strongly motivated by the idea that I have a limited amount of time on this earth and if I want to get the absolute MOST out of it then I have to try EVERYTHING
I want to do EVERYTHING
Not even in like. A fear-motivated way

If the experience of existing in physical form and being alive and getting to taste and see and smell and touch and create things and learn and feel was a person I'd want to hold her hand and marry her and die hand in hand of old age in the same bed
"The only person who can save you is yourself, don't rely on anybody else!"
Actually, what has saved me is books and my favourite video game and my cats and my friends who I've shared late nights and too-early mornings with and the dew-covered grass I walked on on the way to a competition bus in ninth grade band and the sunburn that kept me out of school for days the month prior.
I understand the viewpoint of how you are ultimately the person who can save you, but don't discount that you aren't an island. You aren't meant to be your sole savior. Let others save you, too. You are worth the care and love the universe has for you.
