Another Painting I Did. I'm Really Enjoying It!

Question about being demigender

Can you be demigender and genderfluid? I already identify as genderfluid, but sometimes I feel like I don't entirely connect with gender as a concept. The partial connection I do have is fluid. I've been thinking about identifying as genderfluid and demigender, but is that a thing?

FUCK YOU SILKSONG IS REAL!!!! 2025 LETS GO!!!!!

If you post heavily suggestive/NSFW content and don't tag it as such, fuck you.

If you don't want a QPR, then that's okay. I see you, too.

You might be aqueerplatonic, aka aquaplatonic. I think a lot of aspec discussion is on QPRs, which is fine. But I also think we need to acknowledge it can create a certain pressure. I saw so many posts about QPRs that I felt like I was supposed to have one. People talk about them like its something everyone who's aspec experiences.

But not every aspec will experience it! And that should be seen as okay! When I learned aquaplatonic was a label, it made me feel better about myself. You don't need to have a special someone, regardless of romance or not. If you just have friends, that's okay. If you don't even want friends, that's okay. Don't force yourself into a type of relationship you don't want to have!

(This is not an attack on QPRs or the community in general. This is something I just feel like needs to be said and isn't talked about much.)

My brain randomly spun the "fixate on this OC" wheel, so here's Eli! His full name is Elias. I posted some old art of him, but decided to tweak his design a little. He has powers with electricity, which he has pretty good control over. He's not perfect, though.

Block him. These guys are just thiefs who don't want to learn actual art

I don't normally out people but since I literally have no other recourse when people make AI generated versions of my work without my consent, this is my only option. Block this guy in particular if you want to avoid him making AI versions of your work. Please don't harass him though.

Splatoon has so much heart

Really. Seeing the whole grand fest and Nintendo's wrap up video for all the splatfests just... oh my heart. Its so clear to me the team behind Splatoon loves this game. I had an absolute blast. I spent so much time playing the grand fest, I even called my mom about it. I rambled to her about the idols, how cool the tricolor stage was, I didn't even care who won I just enjoyed every moment of it.

She told me that was the happiest she'd heard me in a while.

Splatoon has so much lore, so many little details... I just love how much care was put into the series as a whole. It really beat the odds, too. It came out on the Wii U, and iirc Nintendo didn't expect it to grow that much. But it blew up into an amazing game series. Its one of my favorites of all time. And it just makes me so happy to see how deeply the Splatoon team and Nintendo care about it. I'm so happy I got to experience all of it.

Reposting old art so I can legally call myself an artist, starting with one of my favorites: the Caiden and Jaiden drawing used to make their irl doll

I've started messing around with painting, and its fun!

Made some keychains for my upcoming Green Day concert!!

I figured this could be cool for people who aren't into bracelets or already have a lot! I actually made a St. Jimmy one as well, but it's on my keys. I'm so excited to see Green Day live for the first time!
