Sitting here thinking about how fairytales follow patterns and feature a lot of repetition and I wonder if it is because it makes things easier to remember if the plot is basically the same action 3 times but with copper, silver, and then gold before something different happens and then cue moral

Today I played pinball with family members for two hours
I would say we had a ball but this is false
We had on average 3 balls per machine

My other big obsession right now is like… the little modular blindbox bjd and mjd dolls. We have touched on this before
With my depression flaring up the closer I get to dad’s memorial, I retreat more into my hyperfixations to self soothe
Thank u for patience, friends. I am having a very bad time

Spoiler I did not make art but I did swatch more ink which was oddly satisfying. It was neat to lay them out and compare them afterward

Augh I’m obsessed with wearingeul ink and it’s such a niche thing to be obsessed with that I feel super self conscious being abnormal about it around people

Art share time: I did a marker experiment and to trick myself into being okay with messing up I did a self portrait
1. Water-based ink pens (pencil erases so easily underneath these??)
2-3. Alcohol-based markers layered on top
4. Water-based markers and colored pencils added

Me, texting my friend at 3am like damn I forgot to consider how access to education might affect literacy and how this might skew the balance of power in a post apocalyptic society—
Wait what about barbers and traveling scribes and doctors and clergy—

I used to think that I constructed stories by vibes only, kinda like exploring floor by floor an abandoned house at night with only a flashlight
And then I realized that I was exclusively choosing only certain kinds of residences constructed in the 1800s with at least two ghosts and a private yard

I am trying to get myself to share personal art and writing eventually but anxiety is making it hard and so I am trying to work my way up to it by sharing more pinboards cos I am less self conscious about them for some reason

I think it’s super important to do art for yourself. But also don’t deny those feelings you get when you share it and don’t get a response. It’s okay for it to disappoint you that no one else dug it but you. Keep making what you like.
