Stopping here for the night. Still a lot of detail painting, maybe a complete mattifying of the black fur while adding a high gloss on the purple. I dunno yet. It's going to be difficult to remove the glass eyes to paint them...

Adding in the bright blue details with a brush - gonna take forever. Thinking of dry brushing a sorta gray violet over the black fur to bring out the details.
The airbrush paints made it very glossy, which I'm not sure if it works. I thought I sanded things well, but the gloss says otherwise. #doll

Forgot how physically strenuous air brushing is. The black went on okay, but the purple is super transparent and is taking a million layers. My air brush is more for illustration than sculpture, so that makes it slower. (And let's not pretend I know what I'm doing). But it's coming along. #doll

Dystonia flare. I don't know why I thought resting would prevent it. Maybe because I never give in, I just assumed. But that was a lie. Resting just means I'm resting while flaring.
It feels wrong. All I know is battle with this body. Every moment is seeking patterns for answers that aren't there.

Getting to this stage broke me. Not from sculpting the face or coating gesso. It was the act of holding the heat gun to cure the layer of polymer clay.
My arms feel so weak + I'm not recovering. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to pick up the airbrush. At least I was able to set it up. #doll

I started this maybe a year ago (can't remember.) It was for my twin. It needed some fixing cuz the cold porcelain clay had difficulty w/ thin pieces breaking. I became too weak, too confused - it's been a difficult year of recovery. Hoping to finish w/ polymer clay + paint it for Christmas. #doll

A very slow, tired start today. Then I caught some of the news + it's just... 😔
So I'm going to clean up my sewing mess, get my sculpting stuff out, and see if I can finish something I started last year for my twin. If not, maybe some cute ornaments for the tree I had no energy to put up this year.

Basically, the female orgasm is rebellion against fascism. 😘
Patriarchy is also white supremacy, that's also fascism + every damn time someone is going after a vulnerable population it's always white supremacy at the core. Can't these idiots come up with something new?

Handsewing the pom-poms and the front side of the trim. This one is my favorite, if I'm honest. Even though it's not one of the ones I pieced together, just a quilted piece of fabric, I love the cute winter cats, and I think my twin will as well. #quilting #sewing #Christmas

Cutting pompoms for the quilted Santa hat gifts I'm making. They're so floofy! (and sticking to everything like glitter @_@)

Is crypto a cult now? These people BELIEVE, and they're envisioning a world ruled by digital gods. Every convo feels like talking to someone so disconnected from reality I want to offer they go touch grass (if their tech overlords have left any on the planet as they devour all our resources). Wow.

Been trying magnesium bisglycinate. It seems to hit my system faster than the multiple other types of magnesium I'm taking. It's correcting a lot of fatigue in the moment. I was only thinking about salt w/ the salt wasting, but it's also the low magnesium + calcium that needs correcting daily.

Stage IV. They had the gall to claim they just dealt with 2 similar, as if he hadn't starved + lost 40lbs while in his 70s with cancer on his esophagus+ liver. That anyone said that to his wife is enraging when she called daily telling them he couldn't eat + they did nothing while the cancer spread.

When tech bros can't handle social media without turning it into absolute shit, why would anyone trust them with reality? These people fail their way to the top.

They diagnosed my FIL after a day admitted in the hospital. It's esophageal cancer. It advanced enough that he couldn't eat the week of Thanksgiving and he hasn't eaten since.
I'm angry at this broken healthcare system, partially because it's easier than living in my fear and grief for his health.

Saw this lottery where you get $1000 a day for life, only to realize it takes 3 years just to reach 1 million.
How long to reach a billion? 3000 years.
A trillion? 3,000,000 years.
People w/ money this big are literally committing genocide + trying to build God. It's a psychosis.

My 70+ y/old FIL survived to get his doc ap. He's lost 40 pounds waiting. They called daily, hoping for a cancellation, telling the office he's unable to eat. Nothing for weeks. He's now in the ER, getting fluids in him cuz he's too weak for basic testing. I'm furious.

These are war crimes. Israel targeted journalists, medics, aid workers, UN workers, as well as noncombat women and children, many found sniped in the head. They have to be stopped or this will continue, not just there, but everywhere.

Thinking about all the things waiting for me to be better... And how it's just a bizarre stress I put on myself to project into inanimate objects and my thoughts about incomplete projects and create a sense of expectation. The better I feel, the more of these projections I can hold in my head,

Feeling better today, which I dunno, meant I was well enough to have an MCAS reaction to a skin product... 🥲 My FIL is still on a liquid diet w/ no help, and the stress is getting to me.
This time of year was hard for me before I was disabled. Now chronically ill, it's always me vs too much.

I lost the entire day recovering. I don't want to be upset - I can clearly see it's just 1 lost day out of so many. But nothing feels salvageable after a dystonia flare.
Maybe it's part of the condition, an inability to appreciate the little wins, stuck in fearing how my body might betray me...
