things i needed to hear in health class:
puberty might make you squishier and its ok
vaginas have a smell and it’s a ok
all kinds of people with all kinds of bodies have gr8 sex
genitals do not all look the same and variety is rad
people have stretch marks sometimes
people have pimples on their butts sometimes
people have cellulite sometimes
gender =/= sex
sex =/= scary danger FEAR
bodies aren’t scary or gross or sacred
everything is ok

If I forgot anyone blame the adhd.
a reminder to all writers out there, you’re a human, not a machine
it’s okay to be frustrated with your works
it’s okay to be exhausted
it’s okay to have a writer’s block
it’s okay to just want to take a break for a while
it’s okay if some days you can only write one paragraph
it’s okay if some days you can only write a sentence or two
it’s okay if some days you can’t write at all
every single writer has gone through all of these challenges, but the thing is that it passes. none of these struggles last forever. so be kind to yourself. you’re doing fine, I promise.
sleepy gaang >>>> everyone else
Do y'all ever read a fic so good that it makes you want to elevate your own craft and also befriend the writer? It's almost like, "Hi! You write so well that you've inspired me to embark on a creative training arc. Also, can I yell about the character in your dms because you get it?"
The Moon Spirit (Yue)
Yue gets her glow-up (it's a bad joke I know XD), and becomes the moon spirit. I followed the show's lead on the shape and fabric change for Yue's transformation. I looked at some of the famous illustrations of Chinese Fairy Maidens/Deities (which take the Tang Dynasty style fashion and extra draping and exaggerate it into a mythical lady) and added back in shapes, motifs and textures from Yue's previous design.
(Reoccurring disclaimer for this art series: This is for fun, they are inspired by the show's costume designs and then extrapolated out with historical fashion or things I think will be fun to draw. These are not meant to be accurate, only inspired. I hope you like them!)

is the world outside burning? some kind of bonfire festival? is it just a dramatic sunset?? unimportant ✨️
Virgin shaming and slut shaming piss me off in equal amounts. There’s nothing magical or special about being a virgin, and same goes with having sex. You know what’s magical? Shutting the fuck up about people’s personal choices.
Aphrodite does canonically have a nice rack but I’ll never take ppl seriously when they give her anime girl proportions.
