Sometimes for no reason Tootdon reads out random toots in the text to speech robot voice and I'm not sure why and it's... certainly something

I've seen the word 'Opsec' twice tonight and I'm already tired

Pol, north korea 

It turns out the hill I'm willing to die on in 2018 is that if you're making jokey jokes about nuclear war then you're human garbage. Good to know.

Shape of water spoilers 

@taki yeah I got a similar vibe but I don't think I ever made that direct a connection. I did want it to be more of a TF, but it seems entitled to want that movie to cater to me more than it already does, haha

Love spending my first commute of 2018 stuck in a blizzard

@noctilucent I'm not going to delete mine but I think I'm just going to leave it there for the most part except for promo stuff. I'm having the exact same issue fwiw - it never makes me feel better, just always worse, blugh

Twitter Discourse, suicide 

Man... the amount of western folks who fetishize Japan as some kind of crazy suicide cult based on like, inaccurate literature and 4 episodes of welcome to the NHK and have Lots of Takes About It is kind of rough.

@angrboda I think the common perception is that everyone who draws 'niche content' doesn't have a traditional job, which.... is extremely not true in my (or I'd imagine a lot of folks') case

I also posted a thing on tumblr trying to politely tell folks to ease off on asking for status updates on forthcoming books. Hopefully that cuts some of the messages I've been getting about it.

So I used some bad feelings from earlier to motivate me to set up my Fitbit and finish exercising. Better late than not at all!

Stress, body image 

@angrboda it's hard not to feel resentful about it which is a thing I deal with pretty much all the time. I know it's wrong but it hurts. IDK. If I try really hard and get on track I can get things moving in the right direction.

Stress, body image 

I've officially gained back all the weight I ever lost and I'm back at square one in terms of not being in shape at all. It's hard not to cry thinking about it - I was so proud of all the work I did and I felt so much better when I wasn't so heavy.

A big lesson from this year has been the need to prioritize myself (mental, physical, emotional help) but it was so hard to do that over the months of dealing with my spouse's mental health stuff that it just got away from me.

I'm happy to do stream announcements on here in addition to twitter if people don't like being on there (same, tbh). I stream infrequently enough that I don't think it would get too annoying.

NSFW - transformation, hypnosis, female nudity 

Something fun I drew in a stream yesterday! I challenged myself to do a tiny comic page relatively fast (for me).

@Miffy this is a constant struggle, haha. Good luck!

@Miffy I was excited going in and definitely didn't leave disappointed. I hope you get to see it and have a similar experience!

Not really spoilers for the shape of water 

Earlier in my life this movie would have completely blitzed me and I would've been obsessed with it, but now that I have more self knowledge and have had my own head over heels monster romance, I think that impact was lessened in a good way.
