I cannot express enough that if your reaction, as a hobby artist, to not getting that many notes on your art is to say "maybe I should just stop doing art altogether" you need to stop posting art to tumblr

not necessarily forever, not even for long, but just stop putting your art on here and start doing it for you again, remember why you enjoyed doing art in the first place and stop relying on the attention of faceless people on the internet for your enjoyment of your hard work

believe me, I get it, nothing crushes the artistic soul quite like labouring for hours on a piece only for it to get like 10 notes, so you need to find your own source of joy in the act of creation and a lot of the time that means making art and not showing it to anybody

#not art #listen #for real #this is not about any one person because i've seen posts about it from a bunch of people #you think i post everything here? buddy i dont even post half my stuff here #every drawing you see is preceded by five more just like it #that never see my cursor close to the save button #i have a sketchbook i draw in regularly that i do'nt show to a single goddam person #i make cutout art from gels i steal from work and stick them to my windows and do paintings in my living room just for me #because that it the only way you are ever going to be able to retain your original love of art #is by doing it for the sake of doing it #not for the sake of seeing how many people stop and stare #anyways i'm sorry if this sounds terse #but i'm so sick of seeing artists put all their self-esteem and happiness in the hands of a blogging website #stop selling yourself short by measuring your self worth by how many reblogs you get and what people say in the tags #your artistry and your happiness are worth more than that #if you're an artist for a living that's another story #but even then #even then #anyways sorry i'm done ranting

People joke about ADHD all the time, even swear up and down they totally think they also have it, but then if you ask for an accommodation, to please please please provide things in fucking writing, EXACTLY what they want and need, you will even work it out WITH them, like they promised they would do — repeatedly over and over, and then you don't get it people really will fucking be like:

I am using the incorrect bathroom (TM) to place my shelving and store my things. Homegirl literally removed various sundries and toiletries from a CLOSED CABINET and SHELF because she's interested in boundaries and accountability for my mess.

I said months ago I wanted to improve things for her comfort level and needed a written list of what precisely that fucking looked like in order to achieve it and not miss anything she deemed important. I explained how ADHD works, why I needed a written reference. Why I had to have it laid out, and if something needed changing we needed to write it all out. I would've made the list myself, but they said they would make it for the whole house to hold up their end of things. And, thinking this was a very reasonable adult solution to keeping the house in good shape, I said okay, come up with the list of expectations and what is needed and that way we can update how we handle chores. Awesome. I will do that to uphold my end.

No list ever gets made or drafted or anything despite my bringing it up, knowing we need to do it, but I DO get berated for failing to meet expectations and boundaries that were never fucking provided or delivered and include "don't store toiletries in this particular bathroom because I don't like it."

I can't believe I am a goddamn adult who gets treated like an idiot child for expecting adult communication instead of snide ass passive aggressive bullshit and basic respect for my things.

Because when I fucking get home, my shelving has been removed and a cabinet emptied of my things and placed in the "correct" bathroom.

🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

Oh shit she solved it, this doesn't look cluttered at all!

What a vast improvement to storing things in appropriate storage!

#my mortal sins include a laundry basket in the kitchen which is where the laundry room is #doing something INCOMPREHENSIBLE to work with my adhd like use the downstairs bathroom to get ready in the morning #instead of the upstairs one because that works best for me and keeps me moving in the morning #storing hobby supplies i was using in the living room in a milk crate basket to clear space at night easily #i left an oil painting to dry on a tabletop easel on MY coffee table and she tried to clean it up causing some of the paint to come off #i used to keep an empty up placed on the mat next to the cat water fountain to remind me to fill up often #not a mess of cups not half emptied cups. a dedicated refill cup tucked behind the fountain #when it kept getting removed i switched it up and placed the cup on top of the cat food bin to clearly indicate it was a cat item #no this is UNACCEPTABLE #also all my coats were removed from the coat rack i feel insane #coats GO ON THE COAT RACK #have you ever had someone actively sabotage your tools to manage your adhd bc its not fun lol #'i can understand why it feels shocking now' literally the most vile snide snake shit when you didnt communicate boundaries at all #its not communicating an expectation to gather up my personal belongings and dump them somewhere else and then text me about it during work #this is how you know shes only ever lived with blood relatives before this lol the entitlement #adhd blogging

you are not gonna be able to guess what lucky circumstances I managed to accidentally get myself into this time lmao I secured myself a spot at a nude drawing class without even knowing it was a nude drawing class. it’s absolutely fantastic tho! the class is usually super popular and spots are hard to get so I was really lucky

#I’m just gonna pop by every few weeks spam reblog a bunch of posts and then yell about my personal life #without responding to any messages or anything else #and that’s gonna be my blog for a while ig #sorry! #but yeah it was rly funny when we entered the room and my friend and I set up our supplies and just chit chatted with them #and some other students #and I suddenly was like #wait so this is completely a nude drawing class? #and everyone was like #classic Gigi move #in my defence: #I assumed it was a general drawing class #cause the course description had mentioned it being a basic class #'from nude drawings based on models to portraits’ #so I was aware it would be a part of it but not the entire class #so yeah #I’m facing my demons this semester #in a really mild way #cuz I actually do not enjoy drawing and painting that much #it’s why I rly struggled in all of my drawing classes #so when I picked classes for this semester I was like well #the description explicitly said everyone even absolute beginners were welcome #and it was about personal skill development rather than already having skills and being graded on them #which is why I thought hm I should do this and stick to it #if I stick to it I will definitely build my skills and if I don’t do that at uni I certainly wont do that at home #sorry for thw long ramblings #I am trying to be healthy and also responsible this semester and stick to actually going to classes #and not chickening out in them and staying home because I have weird compulsive thoughts that keep me from leaving the house ✨ #and I also want to be diligent and hard working this semester #gigi babbles

If you could have any superpower what would it be?

if you could meet any DC Comics character who ISN’T a Green Lantern, who would it be?

Have you seen the Justice League cartoon that was made c. 2005? 🥺

What’s your favorite color?

If you had your power from #1, which fictional supervillain (from any media) would you fight & why?

1.green lantern ring. it is sooo fucking op, i could do literally anything with it. catch a spider lurking in my room? ring. too lazy to wash dishes? ring. can't figure out how much i should tip? ring. and if the ring doesn't count i would choose shape shifting 👍

2. hmmmmmm i honestly don't want to meet any of these bitches i feel like i would get turbo killed just by being in their vicinity, but tora bc she's niceys.

3. justice league unlimited? i've seen clips of it here and there but i've never actually sat down and watched it! just one of those "oh i should watch this" and then i never do type shows

4. u guys are never going to believe this but its green. my favourite color is green. <- (victim of cosmic irony)

5. i mean the joker is an easy pull i would kill the joker on sight no questions asked even without powers. other than that hmmmmm madara from naruto bc he's hot. intricate rituals etc etc

#asks <3 #ty for the ask!! #i recently painted my room green. i have green hair. etc. #do you guys know how embarrassing it is to buy GL comics at the comic book store #and realize that youre wearing an all green outfit. like a cartoon character. #the GL obsession did not come first i prommy 😭i just see a green bitch in media and immediately gain new mental illnii #NOT sorry for talking about nart on my dc blog im having a 2 for 1 bleach/nart fixation resurgence so u guys get to deal with it too <3

Ep. 10 - Like the rolling waves

My beloved fellow souls,

welcome back to Danbi’s Room, your weekly dose of safe space. Go grab a cup of something warm and get yourself cosy.

I hope you had a nice week! I’m very sorry, but this time I will again have to present you a re-elaborated version of an old piece, as these past days I’ve been a bit busy and unfortunately I’ve struggled again with severe anxiety and such. If that happens to you as well, remember that it’s gonna pass and that there’s nothing to be ashamed of. And you can always come to me, I’m here.

I hope you like this piece!

Sometimes it happens. Sometimes we find ourselves in the pits of despair.

And if it’s true that the brightest light shines in the deepest obscurity and that darkness nurtures the seed of life, this awareness is not always enough to let us climb up the chasm of sorrow.

We may need a hand.

A person, a spirit, a vision.

A sound, a god, a feeling.

Memory.

I still remember the first time I drew something that made sense.

It was an blue balloon, with a blue thread.

I was three.

What I don’t and couldn’t remember is my first love - at the time I must have been around one year old.

On the big, heavy, black analogue TV from my childhood there was a ballet piece being broadcasted.

My heart decided that was the right time order my nervous system to make me walk; I had to see it better.

I had to go closer.

I only got to know about this story a few years ago, when my heart, once again, ordered to my nervous system to get me moving again to embrace the lover I had to forcefully abandon many years before and for whom I hadn’t had the strength to fight.

Even if it’s pointless, since the past has already happened, lately I often wonder if I would have made the same choices, had we remained together.

Obviously this question will remain unanswered.

Despite my absence she took me back. She, too, demands my blood, sweat and tears, but I gladly spill them for her, even if they become so plentiful that I could replace all the oceans on our Mother Earth.

Alas, my two lovers are jealous of each other.

Each one of them wants me for her only.

But I know they were fooled.

I was fooled too.

Remember? The pack, the community is what makes us strong.

Loneliness makes us weak.

It also makes arts weak.

The common flesh of the sisters who are the highest and finest expression of the divinity of the human being was made enemy against itself, by us, villain servants.

The richness of the multitude was deemed as distraction, imperfection, futile vanity.

No.

No.

Life is not a straight line going nowhere.

The universe is not a straight line going nowhere.

Life is a circle, a spiral.

The universe is a circle, a spiral.

The universe is not a universe without its planets, stars, black holes.

A cell is not a cell without its mitochondria, its ribosomes, its nucleus.

Tekné, the unique ancient Greek word for art and technique it’s the membrane of the cell.

Every particle, every component inside fill it.

They work together.

If you take one out everything dies.

If you take just one it doesn’t survive.

So would I have to do that?

Why would we have to do that?

Why would we have to go on and around with dead pieces of lonely limbs?

It’s what we’ve been taught for the past 400 years - that doesn’t make it right.

Considering also that the past 400 years especially, particularly in the Western world, have been a continuous effort to make us weak, sick, divided.

Lifeless.

So I say, let’s take back everything, our essence, our right to multiplicity, our right to entirety.

Think about what or who you’ve left behind.

Think about what has always been within you, but you have forgotten.

Regain the consciousness of your past loves and past lives.

They might be your greatest treasure.

This is a bit short and in a bit different in style…let me know if you like this kind of text better!

Today’s song recommendation is 13 by our wonderful ace Han. It’s a beauitful and unique song that is able to speak to everybody and touch each one’s soul in the most needed way.

Let’s show it a lot of support!

I hope you enjoyed this episode and that you have a beautiful week ahead of you!

I’ll see you in the next one, big hug!

With love, yours,

Danbi
