Hello! Thanks for visiting my Bluesky! ❤️

There's going to be a lot of FFXIV, Pathfinder, and Monster Hunter on my blog, as I play those pretty frequently.
Occasionally I'll post art here too, but that will be a little infrequent for now until I can get past some of my shyness. 👉👈

Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Yes, and, because I am a resentful creature, I would also like to add:

I did finally get a chance to sit down and play the new game I got though, and it was so much fun! ❤️
Absolutely blew through a good few hours of game play, and got pretty far in-game. uvu

Offline life has me so incredibly busy and tired, so I haven't been as active as I've hoped I could be.
Hopefully once everything is settled health wise I should be more active!

Crit is infamous in this setting because he is created by a syndicate dedicated to maintaining technical superiority in the production of combat robots. He is specifically designed to haunt, hunt down, and kill bots that rival their syndicate's level of tech.

He's a bot killer.

it's okay to want people to like your oc. validation and praise are very human needs. but here's the thing: if you don't love the shit out of your oc first- i mean you gotta be your oc's first and most important fan, to an almost unhinged degree- it's gonna be very hard for anyone else to do so

There is so much happiness and pride as you see your art grow alongside you. It evolves and changes with you over the years, and that is so incredibly magical and wonderful to get to see. Comparing year after year, or with before and afters.

Why would someone want to deprive themself of that joy?

Starry @starrilina.bsky.social · 3d

And getting to share that new method with you friends? Getting hype over trying it out together? That is so beautiful and heart warming! It's connection and bonding over a common interest and passion, and it's so much fun. (c)

Starry @starrilina.bsky.social · 3d

What shocks me is what happened to the passion of learning a craft? It took me years to get to where I am today, but I learned. I persisted.

I love drawing, and when I learn a new coloring or line arting method or anything new pertaining to drawing I get SO excited! (c)

Starry @starrilina.bsky.social · 3d

uncomfortable sharing ANYTHING creative around them anymore.

That person no longer feels safe to share with or to talk to, regardless of if they use my art or not.
They're using others peoples art, other peoples passions to make a quick and hollow mimicry, and I cannot be okay or fine with that.

Starry @starrilina.bsky.social · 3d

Not to sound depressing on main, but I've had to break off so many friendships, or set people to further then arms length due to Gen AI.

I literally cannot trust someone the moment they use Gen AI in any capacity. I refuse to share my art or sketches with them past that point, and honestly feel (c)

I've been seeing my favorite fuzzy friends around! 🍂🐛

Illustration of a wooly (sometimes spelled woolly) bear caterpillar. It's fuzzy and cute and has a happy little smile. There's lines radiating around it and above it says "it's wooly time!" in lowercase hand lettering. The background is a light orange checkered pattern.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Someone's screenshot of a two-post twitter thread, from user blue (@bluewmist):

the fastest way to kill motivation is to make your identity depend on the outcome. it's called ego involvement. when failing becomes failing as a person, your brain starts avoiding the whole thing. not because you don't care, but because you care too much.

you don't need lower standards. you need less self-worth tangled up in your goals. the work gets easier when it's not about proving who you are.

I know I'm getting old (wheezes in almost 33), because I get tired by 11PM rather then 4AM like I used to.

Starry @starrilina.bsky.social · 7d

Absolutely! :D I think it's really fun. To be fair, I did drop it for like...10 years before picking it back up (remembering it existed dfhgldsf), but I've been enjoying it since. uvu

Starry @starrilina.bsky.social · 7d

YESSS I'm so glad I'm not the only one between all my friends who played!! It's still pretty fun, I absolutely encourage getting back into it. c: It's a really good chill and AFK game.

If you have specific dragons you're hoping for too let me know, I might be able to help you get them! \ovo/
