So Yes, I Did Another Photoshoot! This Plush Is @nagarnia's Fluffli Plushie!

I'm a graphic designer (much to my own chagrin).

WHY

In GOD'S HO-FricKING-LY CREATION

Is NO ONE TALKING

abOuT

REFERENCING

I've been a graphic designer for four-ish years. And I have plenty of social media. Tiktok, Youtube, Tumblr, Pinterest, Instagram (kinda).

Yes, I know rendering is hard. Rendering, for beginning artists and designers, is a *insert creative expletives here* of a skill to learn. It's hard. I know.

But refeRENCING. REFERENCING. I SCOUR PINTEREST AND GOOGLE AND FRACKING REFERENCE SITES AND I CANT FIND THE ONE. THE ONE THING. THE ONE THING I NEED.

and it's not even a pose. Those are even harder. I'm talking about a picture of a bee. Just a bee. A bee in flight. Not that hard, right?

THINK AGAIN! IT'S-IT'S A NIGHTMARE! I NEED A REALISTIC- NO, NOT BUGS BUNNY!- A REALISTIC- that's a carTOOOOON- A REALISTIC BEE- that's an abomination get it away- A REALISTIC, HELL, JUST A PICTURE OF A BEE IN FLIGHT.

It shows me everything but the kitchen si- nope, never mind, there it is. Everything except a FLIPPING BEE PICTURE.

And when I do find what I need, it's rarely a transparent png, so I have to manually cut it out of its background and transform it to the right angles and distortions, and then I'll extract the "line drawing" and it just makes it black and white!

REFERENCING IS A NIGHTMARE.

Being a graphic designer was my childhood dream, everyone. But now that I'm getting paid? I hate it. I hate my dream job, people.

This is why I've taken up crochet and Garageband again, people.

Lemme tell you about this one friend I have.

For a bit of context, she likes anything and everything dragons, Warrior Cats, and art.

I'm hanging out with her the other day, as friends do. Suddenly, she goes: my lips are so chapped what the heck

And then puts on chapstick

No, don't scroll. I know it sounds like a normal interaction so far, but just give me two sentences.

She smacks her lips for a second, and then turns to me and goes: this chapstick tastes weird. I'm confused, so she clarifies: it tastes like someone else used it.

At this point, my brain has stopped functioning. I have ADHD, and I can hear weird things that I shouldn't be able to hear. I've heard of people with really good senses of smell. But being able to taste who's used a CHaPSTICK?

At this point I think all my friends are just fey in disguise.

hi! I'm going on indefinite hiatus. Mostly for mental health reasons, but I'm also doing a social media cleanse. I will be back eventually, but I don't know when that'll be.

That being said, I will occasionally post a Frog Politics update. Probably.

Love yall!

Shroomie out!

”Dude, stop being autistic.”

-My mom, to my ADHD brother when he’s being nitpicky

NO DONT DO THIS TO ME

Can I pick one to not? ‘Cause I don’t like Zayne. Not my type.

Important Question: You can only choose one. Who are you picking? 🫠

THIS. THIS IS TRUE FEMINISM

Also, I hc Hiccup as 5'8" and skinny and Astrid as 5'7" and MOOSCULAR

Not to be a loser or whatever but saying Astrid is "the man in the relationship" in Hiccstrid is wildly misogynistic and misandrist all at the same time. Enforcing rigid gender roles to pretend you're NOT enforcing gender roles is fucking weird.

Hiccup is a man, he is The Man in the relationship. All of him is masculine because he is a man, he identifies as a man, he (we can assume) has male biology, and everyone around him accepts him as male.

Acting like Hiccup is somehow "weak" or "submissive" or "effeminate" just because he's thin and has a gentler personality then Astrid walks back what Feminists have been struggling to explain for years.

Astrid is a woman, she is The Woman in the relationship. All of her is feminine because she is a woman, she identifies as a woman, she (we can assume) has female biology, and everyone around her accepts her as female.

Acting like Astrid is "dominating" or "masculine" or "stronger" just because she's a better warrior and has a more aggressive personality then Hiccup is

WALKING BACK WHAT FEMINISTS HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING TO DEPROGRAM FROM YOUR PEA BRAINS FOR DECADES

Personality traits and physical attributes do not dictate what makes you a man or a woman, it's how you FEEL and how you accept yourself. If you are a man thats gentle and compassionate, empathetic and patient- then you ARE JUST A MAN WHO IS GENTLE AND COMPASSIONATE AND EMPATHETIC AND PATIENT.

WOMEN ARE STILL WOMEN IF THEY'RE PHYSICALLY STRONG OR THEY'RE AGGRESSIVE OR THEY'RE SMART.
