Struck by lightning and inspired to draw an old character from....wow over ten years ago.

#alexis arendel design notes: must ALWAYS look flustered. his cheeks are just naturally ruddy and his eyebrows are shaped like that.#he was plotting to betray everyone but never really got around to it.#really my biggest regret is that his evil never really got out of the planning phase.#so in the end nothing he did was that bad. all he really did was say ''kys'' a few times when asked for legal advice.#anyway i've forgotten how to draw #so i'm trying to re-figure that out #send me some suggestions if you have any

Typing the same thing over and over on my phone, to train it to stop capitalizing this word.

#if you EVER see me capitalize the name of a brand or product. just know that it is the phone's doing and not my own.

I read all of the daevabad series in a week, this character was designed to appeal to me specifically.

#alizayd al qahtani #he's wet and he's even an accountant #how to instantly make a character good: make them an accountant #city of brass #the daevabad trilogy

Gaslighting people into thinking Spiderlight is a well-known book.

Yayyyyyyyyy thank you :) <3 <3 <3<3 <3

#yayyyyyyyy #thank you #i like the shapes of the petals #at the different angles #and the rough paintbrush lines #and the ambiguous worldbuilding

pacific time zone happy new year

#very tired #sleepy

My initial flight was delayed by over an hour, and so I missed my connecting flight, and there weren't any other flights to my location, so they sent me to another backup airport that's like 16 more miles from my destination, and it was three and a half hours later, and I need to get a ride home, and there are no rides available right now, which is fair enough, I don't expect most people want to be working in the middle of the night on new years eve, but I had intended to be here in the evening, and also at a different location.

#the car ride from the airport is more expensive than my flight was #sighhhh #it's not actually the new year yet for me and my pacific coast timeline #but happy everything for the rest of you

My toxic fandom trait is that nothing puts me off a gay ship more than seeing it referred to as yaoi or yuri.

I read a book about a guy who is a spider being constantly tortured for no reason, just all the time.

There needs to be a lot fewer prickly pears in my vicinity, because they look delicious, and they are delicious, and I know from experience that if I touch one for 0.6 seconds I'm going to get ten thousand glass shards stuck in my hand.

#i knew there was a reason i hated so cal.......#(i actually love cacti they're the best. the plants down here are a vibe. love all the little scrubland flowers.)

Spent the day moving..... had an eight hour drive yesterday that turned into a ten hour drive, and then had to spend like four more hours in a car again today. I got so little sleep last night. I've been trying all evening to keep my eyes closed and make up for it a bit, but my brain won't let me sleep. God I am exhausted.

#still waiting for the ibuprofen to really kick in.....

My phone auto-capitalizing my "i's", and me editing it back to lowercase six times in a row until it sticks, because incorrectly capitalizing the word "I" is important to the vibes of what I'm trying to say.

Life is so beautiful when I have three separate people all reading books I like and talking to me about them.

#thanks guys you're the best #i think i miss being a teenager and having english class #that's what MY youthful nostalgia is for

It's been a while since a book made me cry.......<3

#exordia was so good.....#also it will probably be faster for you to read than it was for me bc i was reading it alongside someone else #so there was a lot of pause/catch-up as our schedules differed #but i kind of do suggest reading with someone else. it's super fun to discuss #some of the most fun i had with it was pausing to dissect all of its delicious crunchy ethical and philosophical conundrums #it's a real good book club book #anyway please read it and then discuss it with me. and also read baru cormorant.

This book is so iconic.

#exordia #this is what it feels like to focus on shipping in stories where people are dying by droves
