let's try an early bedtime to go with sleeping a lot last night and napping this afternoon.

Fine, I'm gonna save this kitten picture.

It's like my pictures folder is this weird mix of cocks, other peoples' art which I thought was amazing and wanted to learn from, and incredibly cutesy animal photos.

I got all roughs off to the customers and heard back from my other customer about the thumbnails, so I'm trying to feel that I used time okay this weekend.

GOTTA LIFT AND SEPARATE 'EM!

wait, you mean the song's not about bras that don't fit?

DO YOU SMELL IT?

from Frank Herbert's "Up in Smoke"

"I am the Hasselhoff Burrfoot. The houssssekeeper."
"Cool, did you bring some extra towels?"

I gotta say David Lynch's version of the Baron from Dune was a lot funnier and more farfetched before our country became controlled by a bloated powerhungry asshole with ridiculous hair who made no attempt to be subtle about being villainous.

"what's in the box?"
"pain."
"gee gramma you bring me the nicest presents."
"stop, I hold at your gums the gum jabber."

the vermicelli is the pesto!
the pesto is the vermicelli!
whoaa

look, reciting the opening to Dune and playing air guitar to the theme tune is also part of my artistic process.

#dune #arrakis #desertplanet

look, dancing around in my boxers to Janet Jackson is part of my artistic process, don't judge.

good Smeagol doesn't like no nassssty chips, he doesn't like nasssty food, gollum! the only nasssty thing Smeagol likes is a nassssty groove.

Went to coffee shop and jammed on another commission, then figured I’d tighten yesterday’s pages. I have nine pages of tightened stuff all told to scan, and I did thumbnails for a third client yesterday, which somehow feels like nothing.

I’m emotionally so wobbly right now, like the right song or statement would be all it’d take to set off a crying jag.

Apparently after all that sleep last night I still want a nap?

Or in other words I feel like I’ve been kinda a jerk and want to be more careful.

Also, I was thinking about how atheism usually plays out very anti-Islamic and anti-semitic, how much as I hate and resent Christianity even going after *that* is kinda punching down. And from there to feeling I’ve been a bit too quick to do the whole “it’s the fucking red states/south” deal - that’s also punching down. There’s only a very nebulous boundary between lower class whites who just want things to be okay, and the rich assholes who’re making things worse.

I hate those little mental twinges of mixed fear and self loathing, where my brain decides right now is a fine and useful time to feel that it’s too late for me to become a romantic/sexual partner or artist, a valued non-art employee, or even to hope for a better housing situation.

Aside from familiarity, possibly numbing emotions when I feel stuck, or providing justification for treating myself to things I want, what good is this?

There is a lot of content out there and not all of it is traumatic. Like yeah, I’ll CW current politics stuff because everyone hates the situation (that’s why I’m posting about it!) but I also like the option of just giving people more choices about reading further. Not everyone likes D&D as much as I do, f’rex.

Not that I’m great at using this but I’m trying to do better.

So let me get it straight, Starbucks near the college now has fewer seats and outlets, and you have to sign yourself up to get emailed promotions to use their WiFi, and somehow I’m supposed to parse this as an improvement?

*goes back to bubbling pit of self-loathing while waiting in ginormous line*
