what ho it appears ive been tagged by @schismpitch hmmm i tag, if they want to do it @savechangesto-untitled and @tarrare-big-naturals and @butchspock02 and any other mutuals from my personal blog lol you know who you are.

let's go

last song:

just fucking take it ok yall DONT know what its like...

currently watching:

ok well. i barely ever watch tv shows, i think the last tv show i was watching was neon genesis evangelion and then i dropped it because i dislike tv. last movie i watched was the Mask (1994) because it was on at the gym. there was no audio on it so i was exposed to this beautiful movie where i made up all the dialogue in my head it was great.

current obsession:

Well aside from [REDACTED] .... obsessed with my own OCs who are uniquely all nerds and losers. i've really been obsessed with the archetype of the geek or nerd lately. Why did that ID come about, does it still exist, why not etc... I think it's a lot of fun to think aboutthese things. Obsessed always with the huxley family as well. <3

currently reading:

Trevenen huxley's archival letters and also War and Peace the the Brothers Karamazov. I really, really miss reading nonfiction dude. I love pierre with all my heart but i really just prefer nonfiction to all else.

currently working on:

My comic's Part 1 has been completely drafted so I would like to clean it up and start drawing it in total before the year is out. I miss writing the gap year! You can read about it right here. or here @midmodmar. I'd also really like to make a short comic or zine about my 2025 and also problematic evil things.

currently wearing:

sweats and some 15 yr old walmart tshirt.

last google search:

"why am i only getting 2 views on instagram." like i know the algo sucks but this lack of reach is incredible. idc about being famous i just wanna make some art friends. whats goin on.

favourite flower:

DAFFODILSSSS

white and orange... they look like fried eggs. yum.

Get counter attacked, @midmodmar !! Yes, his girlfriend is a bombardier beetle. They are in a serious and committed relationship. My current OTP. No couple will ever come close.

Jonah, your technique is awful. That coating isn't slightly even, geez!
