alright! this is about where i usually get to when it comes to drawing!

the trick is that i'm actually really bad at backgrounds, but i do have some ideas. so maybe that can change later!

if nothing else comes of this, at least i experimented a bit with the face (particularly the mouth) and i really like how it came out!

oh look! i finally decided to start drawing something before midnight!

"elgyem" is such a clever pokemon name

it's said to have come from space, and it's name is pronounced "LGM"

this message is brought to you by Griffin McElroy randomly playing the Pokemon theme on MBMBAM and me realizing "wait, why don't i know that yet??'

"i should sleep!"

(i say, immediately before learning how to play two separate pokemon themes on ukulele)

i wanted to draw a location in pokemon super mystery dungeon, and was going to use the actual game as a reference

so i started it up and discovered i was at a story segment completely isolated from the place i wanted to look at

this is an extremely good excuse to play some mystery dungeon, and i'm definitely taking it!

self-aware double standards 

i think my biggest fear is not being worth the mental energy of others

but that's not something i try to solicit to begin with--except in a few cases where i've convinced myself that it's absolutely worth it

i mean, it does make my twitter extremely browsable, but it also feels like i'm basically treating myself like a brand, which is ahahaha not good

that's less true here--which is freeing! but there are still a few places where i've decided i'm likely not welcome

self-aware double standards 

*sees one of those positive messages directed at everyone*

my brain: oh yeah! this really does apply to everyone... except for me, of course!

hee, nice try, brain

maybe my resolution for next year should be to get out there as much as possible to counteract my self-exclusionary thoughts?

getting anxious over nothing is the last thing i need, and i think getting some proof that it's all unfounded might be just what i need

i only started recording the data because the values embedded on google don't show up anywhere on the source page, so I kinda gotta keep track of it myself

i love how I can basically just hack something like this out in tasker when i need to, though! (maybe i should use it more often?)

because of the local miasma, I made a thing to track it, and send me warnings when i'm out of the house and it gets worse than 100

On the Internet, everyone knows you're a dog

i started to read an article, and an autoplaying video i didn't want to watch stopped loading because i had an ad-blocker enabled

th-thanks?

i should draw something!

(i say every night when i really just need to get to sleep)

friend trouble (+) 

you know what? i can't let this get me down!

nasty things happen sometimes, and continuously living them isn't gonna get me anywhere

i just gotta find something to focus on that i can enjoy--that way i can at least get to a neutral mental space, so i can let my mind process it with a clear head

it makes me sad that my friendship probably won't get out of this unscathed, but holding onto angst is gonna get me nowhere

friend trouble (------) 

sorry for dumping this here, but i've never been outright attacked by a friend before, and i don't know how to process it

i feel like i'm just going to stop supporting her like i do, since she clearly doesn't want that

urk, i'm gonna have one heck of a time focusing for a little while

Show thread

friend trouble (------) 

i paid for a friend's food and she just fuckin punched me in the middle of the market for it

after apologizing for this misstep on my part, she said it was alright and then after a few second delay, she elbowed me in the stomach again

i left, and while i forgive her, i'm still so fucking mad right now
