hey artist

if you have a brain that really likes creating stuff, like

like u REALLY just love to make stuff,

I want you to know something.

this is very, very important

• you do not need to make something every day to still be an artist, it's okay to relax and enjoy things other people have made

• even if you don't finish your projects, they are still valuable

• big number on social media is the most painful thing to pursue and it relies heavily on luck and does not determine your worth

• you need to make art that isn't up to your artistic standards before you'll have the skills to create art you can be truly proud of

• drink some water. it's not related to being an artist but I know you're dehydrated.

My work for #cartoonzine! by DVillefort

#STIMMING!!

I remember things so differently from NT people, it's actually damaging to my education.

Like, sometimes it's funny. For example, I can't remember the name of roads or streets or anything like that except if they're very important to remember (and even then I'll mess up.) My little sister knows every road name precisely. My dad did like a little fun test. "What's this road called?" he asked us. My littler sister replied: "Cotton Road." I replied: "road with bendy's and the man-tree at the corner. golf court."

He asked again when we made a turn. My little sister: "Holly Oak Street!" Me: "road with the big blue house and the rainbow flag."

I still know exactly where we are, just don't know the names.

The times it's absolutely horrible that I remember things like this is during exams, or even just homework or schoolwork. I can't remember scientific words. Much less if it's chemistry or physics. They have nothing to compare it with, it's just letters, words, symbols. With biology you can still kinda match words with things. But I'll remember what the thing does, why it does that, what it looks like, I just can't for the life of me remember what it's called. What the hell is it called?? For me; "purple stripe with bumps and is in charge of making proteins." I told that to my friend and she just went "oooh you mean the rough endoplasmic reticulum?" No idea what she meant. I just nodded.

But like, I know I'm not alone in this. I'm sure I'm not.

My questions is, though... how do schools not know this? That people think like this? And in many other ways than this? Why do they focus on just naming things for marks? Why are marks even a thing? Why are exams a thing?

And if schools do know... why aren't they doing anything about it? Or is it just the US and its shitty school system?

Dealing With Feral Cats (July, 2022)

Transcript:

“I am not meant for people. Other people are meant for people. Some, more than others. But it seems like all people find their people eventually. I must be different. I should know better by now. I must have been born different. We look the same, you and me, but there must be something wrong with me. I do not talk the right way. I do not feel the right way. I do not want the right way. I do not love the right way. I do not know the right way. Always, always, always, always, always, always, always, always, it feels like I am too little of the right thing and too much of the wrong thing. I feel that I could change but it would mean lying to myself. Lying that I like people, want people, understand people, deserve people. It’s fine, though, I’m fine I’m fine. Feral cats have a way of dealing with people. And, people have a way of dealing with feral cats. End.”
