I cry reading everything now. I'm not even sure what exactly I'm internalizing.

I think my struggle as an artist is that I can't appreciate the journey. I am the type of person who would want to use ai to make what I want, but I am too smart and too stubborn to surrender myself to a machine like that. I can think, I can do, I just need to get over the hurdles.

I did not end up finishing more book books this year. I may end up completing the book I'm reading on ancient roman clothing though. I left The Fellowship of the Ring, The Farthest Shore, What Moves the Dead and some research books partly read. I did read a lot of comics though. These are my faves

Got rejected from the comics show I wanted to debut my project at. It's fine. I can take more time. I am annoyed though that the application said they wanted comics and zines mostly and I saw someone get in that has neither. That's a little...follow your own rules us all I'm asking for.

Don't tell me to use AI at work
Don't tell me to use AI while Drawing
Don't put AI in my television
Don't put AI in my phone
And Definitely dont put AI in our cars
So sick of this bullshit era.

I've been freaking out more and more. I am BARELY into this project from the production side because I apparently just don't know what anything looks like. Comics are hard bit I don't remember feeling this bad

I should be inspired, but really, I'm just jealous.

I do not know why, but the music from Dragon Quest really hits for me. I'm listening to the ost from DQ 11 and I really...want to replay the game now.

I don't know how I've ever been ok with printing my comics. Having one of those days where I want to burn everything I've ever made.

I prefer "bad" hand lettering to "good" pre-made fonts in comics. I don't think fonts kill a good work, but I do always find them jarring unless the work has a more mechanical look to it. Preferences

Finished Ff tactics. It was ok. It scratched that tactics game itch I get sometimes. Didn't super love the ending and I don't enjoy the final fantasy habit of "lady" end game bosses being in thongs. I did have fun using the math wizard and mime. They work well together.

Apparently, the system for renewing trade licenses in NY has changed since I last had to renew mine...and it will not let me change my address and all the info about how to do that is outdated. STOP CHANGING YOUR SYSTEMS NYC

I want people to enjoy things, but I get frustrated when they're unwilling to look at things they like critically in any way.

I need to accept that, while I want to draw my comics on paper, I will have to edit the pencils digitally because they are a whole mess.
