I’m really tired of seeing people broken up into labels of absolutes.

People are not just “good” or “bad”.

People are not a list of labels. 

People are complex, situations are complex.

I know, that makes it a lot harder when you want to just write off everything someone’s ever done as bad – but that’s not how people actually are, and it would do everyone good to stop pretending they are.

I am tired of hearing about the fear people have in putting themselves out there. And it is a scary thing! Putting yourself out there means subjecting yourself to people who want a really good reason to tear you down, who will jump at the first chance to feel “good” by labeling someone else as “bad”.

I reject this. I reject the idea that there should be fear in speaking up and talking about experiences and trying to reach an understanding of a situation.

I’m unhappy to see people spitefully urging others to cut off ties with their friends under the guise of “well, that person’s just inherently bad, so if you talk to them you’re bad too.” That is fucked up. You definitely have the right to let the friend know you don’t want to hear about whoever troubles you, but you do not at all have the right to decide who their friends should be. This includes guilt trips.

Anyway, just try to be more aware of others. Everyone else is a person like you. They might not have the same experiences as you. They might not understand how their words are harmful, or how what they’re doing is wrong. They certainly won’t if you never tell them.

Most people are trying to be good, but they’re going to mess it up sometimes. Try to keep that in mind. Even when people do really fucked up shit, sometimes they are trying to do good. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions” and all that.

Nothing gets solved, no growth happens when you put people into a box from which you’ll never let them escape.

Yes, you absolutely must be careful about people who have tendencies and patterns that are harmful to you. Sometimes people try to overcome those patterns and they fail, and you have to distance yourself from them: that is the sad reality of life. Sometimes though, they can overcome it. But they certainly won’t if the first thing you do is write them off after a fuck up. 

Be sincere. Use your best judgment.

Baldness is for nerds this is a battle to the death. If you have the same character/pfp on both platforms you have to decide which is the superior.

You have to explain your reasoning in the reblogs too

I don’t know. I just felt really sad all of a sudden. I felt like drawing someone sad. Here’s a sad Jiren.

I don't know why him specifically, but it was nice getting the big sad off my chest while listening to some music and drawing this.

Things might get a little rough sometimes, but we push through it.

Where's the Chris posting 😤

He’s busy eating chili cheese fries

i've drawn enough of them. be free now. go. into the wild with you all

meet my kid named hunter

they began backflipping uncontrollably at the sight of five pebbles

here's a couple doodles of my little guy

rb to spread please!

new comms sheet because the way i draw has gotten a lot looser and more efficient. similar to my last one but the prices r less / i changed a lot of the examples.

if you want to just point to a piece i did and say 'i want something like that' i can probably give you a more accurate prices. so know a lot of these r rough estimates [and more based on more complicated designs]

those mutual follows where you’ve never spoken but you quietly reblog things from each other every now and then

One thing I didn’t expect from my new worldbuilding book is the author, roughly my dad’s age, including his opinions on furries

No need to reply to this, just wanted to let you know that I'm TICKLED by the latest answers. I think you write and draw with a lot of life in your responses and it's a joy seeing Frieza's reactions. Lively and funny. Thank you for the blog, it really feels like you put effort and skill into the storytelling, both visual and written. It's a TREAT!

thank you anon!!! this made my evening during a rough shift ❤️

my favorite thing in the world is getting so comfortable writing a character that they start making their own decisions and guiding the story themselves, and that’s about where I’m at! If I start drafting a reply or story beat and the muse “doesn’t like” something about it, he’ll swat me away and steer the ship on his own lol. Past a certain point they basically become “alive” , and that sort of interiority is super fun for me… Once you understand what their core conceits are you can extrapolate a motivation for literally every decision they ever make, even something as simple as what they want for lunch. I guess getting all analytical like that is where the two of us intersect haha

my Other favorite thing in the world is writing superpowered characters in mundane scenarios—i enjoy drawing battle scenes occasionally but what really makes my heart sing is shit like. Idk. Frieza just doing normal stuff like brushing his teeth. taking his medicine. watching a bad movie and making fun of it. I spend probably too much time imagining the ins and outs of his daily life so that’s what comes out here

Normally comfort characters only last maybe a year for me, but he’s stuck around since 2020 so I think he’s not going anywhere anytime soon!! I’m really happy you like reading what he has to say, and I hope I can keep making you guys smile!

I hope something good awaits you today

AND THERE'S A SALE RIGHT NOW TOO SO GET ON IT!

If you're a creator and you needed to hear this today:

You have no idea how many people lurk on your work. No idea how many times people go back to revisit your work. How big they smile when they simply think about your work. How fast their heart beats, how excited they get when they see that you posted something.

People are shy with their feedback. Sometimes it’s because they’re simply shy. Other times it’s because they assume you already know how great and talented you are. Could be both.

My point is, even if you barely have any likes or reblogs, don’t get discouraged. You have a lot of silent fans, but they are still your fans. Keep on creating. Because there is always someone out there who will love what you have made.
