"let people enjoy things" *should* mean "don't randomly go up to people having fun and shit on stuff they like" not "there is literally no difference between quality and crap" and I hate that so many people think the latter is true
one of my friends finally convinced me to give WoW Classic a shot recently and at laest the first couple hours, I'm having fun

did you know that until this very moment, I had never seen Rocky Horror Picture Show before?
recovering inspiration when you're burned out is hard

I want to write, but I just keep running up against walls when I try to create anything :(
oh, this is really good! I love the ruins she's sitting on!

We went to the Málaga cathedral today and a lady forgot to silence her phone and the ring tone was literally the Exorcist theme. She was an older lady, suitably horrified and I have so very many questions.
I had a 4hr written exam this afternoon, so decided to relax afterword by doing a bit of drawing, foolishly forgetting that "writing" and "drawing" use the same muscles

now my hand is cramping and I'm grumpy
yeah, I can see how it could be really burnout-inducing for some people, but for me doing those was always great for getting me to let go of perfectionism and explore more. The idea that you'd post every day removed so much pressure to get it to a certain state
She looks amazing!

I'm so happy that one of my favorite characters is getting all this love now

I painted my version of Lady Aurelia Malys 😊🤍💚
Note that although this chapter is SFW and light on disturbing content, the fic as a whole is fairly graphic and dead dove-y
I'm overall not super satisfied with the current source for my doll patterns (they tend to fit poorly even with modification), but at least these drawstring pants turned out cute on Rose!

having a hobby like this, something hands-on and not involving screens, feels even more essential these days

oh, that's always the worst

Bluesky moderation has proven that they cannot identify actual sexual content. I do not trust them to ban only noncon sex And even then noncon deserves to exist with flags. Also the rules about self harm are ridiculous They do not owe anyone to be educational about their experience

The finale also involves a fire sweeping through the forest, which is described in detail and kills several major and minor characters and puts others in peril.
Warnings: As is typical for the series, there are several moments of surprisingly graphic violence for the target age range, including some depictions of disease and of characters being hit by cars that might trouble sensitive children.

SPOILER-Y WARNING IN NEXT COMMENT
although Warrior Cats isn't high art, this was a nice moment of adjustment and character development and reaction to the previous story and topped off by a tense finale. Quite a solid book overall

9/10
read Rising Storm (Warriors: The Prophecies Begin bk 4) by Erin Hunter

Fireheart struggles in his new role as deputy with a rebellious apprentice, the distrust of his clan, a wavering leader, and Tigerclaw still lurking in the shadows of the forest, waiting for revenge

I had a big presentation at school today and I wore my Adeptus Sororitas necklace for inspiration/good luck

I think it worked, though, the prof seemed pleased at least. And I got to talk about one of my favorite pathogens!
