Consequences of antisemitism are felt by Jews, not by antisemites. And if I were okay drinking tonight, I would drink until I forgot that.

there are basically two types of people who listen to Siegfried's Death and Funeral March, Nazis or fans of "Excalibur."

gah! I didn't explain the little derro wizard dude. My man's keeping some sort of deific/fiendish fetus in a covered cage, and uncovers it to flash opponents with blazingly intense light.

#drawings today, D&D/fantasy adversaries

@GraySpots this isn't just the technical part but also comparing that I'm NOT a full time professional to people who ARE. So it's not just "I suck, I should pencil/ink/color better" but also "I suck, I should make my own website and market my portfolio and take commissions and all I ever do is fart around on paper" which of course is "...because I have nearly no spoons and this is a rewarding but cheap hobby."

My politics have shifted from despair to hatred again, but that never lasts long.

@robinhood thanks to “Mark Twain” it’s hard not to parse “Peter Dinklage” as some sort of maritime measure. I’m not sure HOW much dinklage a boat needs or WHAT it is, but apparently it’s one peter, or about 4’5”

@wolfteeth your AD account concerns Iron Age and more recent technology that fits the category“industrial archaeology.”

@Yotenotes unfortunately, evil being banal, right now is actually intensely disinteresting as well.

@typhlosion DAMN THEM ALL I WAS TOLD
WE’D ALL EAT ASS FOR AMERICAN GOLD
WE’D SUCK NO COCKS AND CRY NO TEARS

@BlaiddYote oooh free stuff!

@robinhood Mallet to the noggin, booyah!

@pandora_parrot congrats!

When I give money to someone’s emergency, something else is also vital and at some point I have to roll with “saying no lets me contribute to further emergencies in the future.” Now I am trying to think the mindset of wanting to help moves us closer to a (unattainable) Tikkun Olam, even when I see myself as merely trying to keep things from getting worse. And of course; if I throw $25 at something it’s big, throwing $100 is beyond possible, but that’s nothing for the folks causing the problems.

Realizing that like everyone else I’ll want to follow more proficient artists, which solves towards more technical skill and professional status, which could become reasons to beat myself up.

Oh and there’s more and more I keep forgetting like how I lost a friend in June, how my mother is probably on her way out, etc. 2023 hasn’t been one of my easiest years, at least not yet.

I don’t especially see myself as fey, despite having played a selchi online and unrelatedly used “Vodyanoi” for a different character, but the pronouns fae/faer really appeal to me at some level and I kinda want to try them sometime.

okay, apparently I am pretty stressed at a consistent low level - which tallies with unemployment, family stuff, new temp job, recently raised rent, record heat as an indicator of climate change, my dreams of professional art vanishing more than usual, and the omnipresent threat of the right/far right.
