Hello Hare, thank you for the ask and I hope you are doing well! ☺️
For Favourite mug I think lately it’s been my Cherie mug. This is what it looks like.
I got it back in February for about $3 from a tj maxx branch (Homesense the Canadian version) and thought it was cute so I got it. It’s a really good size for tea and has a good handle and shape. I’ve been using it ever since.
2. I guess I have a lot on my mind... There are a lot of things I feel I need to get done. Some things fixing up things in my home like a falling curtain rod among others. There are some crafts I want to start or get done like perler projects, bracelets and things. Some art pieces I want to draw or finish up. Maybe get back into playing the great ace attorney game. And mainly get my self sorted with some things I need to file and do in my irl.
3. There are a lot of characters I like but one that I would like to hang out with would be maybe Baizhu from genshin, he seems really mellow and kind the type you could sit with and have a nice cup of tea or something with. Or maybe Queen Sonia from The Zelda series she also seems really kind and thoughtful while still being fun. Goodness there’s so many to choose, I’m trying my best to limit my picks but those were the first two that came to mind without trying to remind myself which characters I like. I feel these two would be a fun chill conversation especially over tea.
4. Well I’m still working on a Vil Schoenheit piece from Twisted wonderland since mid to late March. I’ve mostly finished the face an and hair and blocked in the shapes to be properly outlined but I keep having trouble getting back to it and the crown just makes me feel stuck with me only finishing half. Here’s a preview.
I’m putting the crown up front till I finished to erase the parts hidden by his hair.
For crafting I’ve also lately been getting into the Angelique series with reading the manga which is pretty good and have been working on a perler project based on the mini in game sprite. But ran out of the bright sunshine orangey-yellow. So until I get more I’m on hold for this project.
5. And I guess my favourite aesthetic is celestial aesthetic. Pretty stars and moons. With a cozy sleepy night vibe. With pretty blues, purples, yellows, oranges and pinks. This type of vibe.
Even so much so that most things I choose names with that vibe like luma in game files, my cat being named Luna and even my username here being starry-edits.
Thank you again for sending this ask. I hope you have a wonderful day and that you have every happiness!💕☺️✨

I’ve been feeling stuck with both art block and a bit of burnout lately. I’ve still been procrastinating a digital piece for almost two months now and haven’t drawn anything other than practice portraits in my sketch book.
Just things have been feeling like they’re a lot lately. So I thought I would try making a fun ask game if anyone is interested to ask me anything. Maybe it might help pull me out of this struggle I’m in.
And if you would like to reblog it for your followers to ask you please feel free! 💕
one of the hardest things to learn as a depressed former Gifted Kid™ is that half-assed is better than nothing. take the 50%, 40%, even 20% job. scrubbing your face is better than not taking a shower at all. picking up your clothes is better than never cleaning. nibbling on some bread is better than starving.
DO THINGS HALFWAY. NOW YOU’RE 100% BETTER OFF THAN YOU WERE BEFORE.
One of my college professors used to say “anything worth doing is worth doing poorly.” I didn’t understand that for years because I didn’t do anything poorly, I couldn’t do anything poorly, I had to Do Everything Perfectly.
But brushing your teeth for 30 seconds is better than not brushing them at all when that 2 minutes seems exhausting. Doing ten minutes of yoga is better than 10 minutes of sitting when 30 minutes of cardio sounds impossible. Changing my clothes is good when a whole shower is impossible. Standing on the porch for a few minutes is worth it after being in the house for three straight days because I don’t have the energy to go anywhere.
Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly… because doing it poorly is better than not doing it.
I’m making this post to showcase all of the art commissions I have bought to support my friend @hashembadr. Hashem is #102 on @gazavetters' spreadsheet. You can read his story here. After 2 years managing funds for and fighting to support his family members who could not afford to leave Gaza, he decided to return to his original goal of raising funds to leave Gaza to join his wife and children in Morocco.
Unfortunately, due to the attack on Iran, the crossings have closed and Hashem’s current goal is to survive until they open them again.
Hashem and some of his family are currently renting an unfinished apartment for $300 a month. There are twelve of them sharing 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and a kitchen. No windows, no doors, but it's much better than the tents, which they lost in the storms. Money will allow them to afford rent to stay in this shelter and to buy food at the market, which spares Hashem the terrifying risk of visiting one of the deadly aid points. He was already shot at and had his phone destroyed in a previous attack.
I would like to share the story of my friend Smahan. Today Sma… Hana ne Fazazi needs your support for Reunite a Family Torn Apart: A Daughte
The following artists have all agreed to draw in exchange for donations to his campaign! I encourage you to commission them and help support Hashem and his family.
If you donate any amount of money, you can get a cute lil dragon doodle from @shadowfoxsilver! Here's a cutie she drew for me! They also offer additional tiers for more complex drawings.
For at least $3, you can get a doodle from @artobotsrollout! Here's is a $10 sketch | got from her of R*inzler from T*ron The sketch tier includes progress shots, line art, and a full color piece.
If you donate at least $5, you can get a sketch of one character from @astraios-art! Here's one he did for me of Tenzou helping Sakura chase Kakashi down for a check up! He also drew me pictures of Kid and Heyes from A*lias Smith and Jones (+ an additional $5 for all the details as accessories), Johnny and Roy from E!, Slim and Jess from L*aramie, Stacy and Vince from T*J Hooker, and Johnny McKay from L*awman!
@squishescommishes is offering $5 doodles, plus additional tiers for colored doodles or multiple doodles. I personally opted for the simpler style shown in these kofi sketches when purchasing mine because I thought it was so stinkin’ cute and fit my request of an owl griffon hatchling from G*uild Wars 2.
@orilifiel is offering $5 donation sketches! Here is one he drew for me of my favorite R*esident Evil Head canon where Leon finds a cake from the welcome party mid game and eats it with a blank stare.
@derelictheretic is offering $5 sketches on this post! Here’s one they did for me of Tails! They also offer additional tiers for more complex drawings.
@allgremlinyaps is offering $5 doodles! Here’s one I got of Ketchup and Molly from A*nimal Crossing!
For at least $7, you can get a sketch from @optimistic-autistic! Here's one he did for me of one of my favorite p*okemon, c*hikorita! He also offers additional tiers for more complex drawings.
If you donate at least $15, you can get a character design from @crungulus. $25 will get you a portrait, and $30 will get you even more, like this commission they did for me of my late cat, Callie. We used to play T*wilight Princess together a lot.
This is our reality here in Gaza: killing, forced displacement, executions, living under fire, and shortages of medicine, food, and potable water. This is the current reality in Gaza.
The current situation is extremely difficult. There are no basic necessities for life here; life itself is almost nonexistent. Besides the lack of food and water, my father and my niece Iman are suffering. She is going through the worst days of her life, and she is only two years old. She has spent her entire life in extremely difficult circumstances and a war of genocide.
My father, who has cancer that could end his life, please don't ignore him. Please donate to save him and give him a decent life. Please don't leave us alone in this suffering. Please donate now. Your donation makes a huge difference and greatly helps in surviving. Please donate now.
Look at the horrors of what life as a Palestinian entails. Its unfair that anyone should be forced to live like this. Please show some compassion and donate to Nader and his family so they can see some relief.
The suffering is far worse than what's shown on the news. Life here is practically nonexistent; there are no basic necessities. Please help us and don't ignore us. Donate now, please.
Nearly 300 people have shared this and not a single person has donated. My father could lose his life while you ignore us. Please donate now! We need €3900 to reach our goal. Please donate now and save us all.
Hey everyone, please don't stop sharing and donating! Please help us in any way you can. We need €3780 to reach our goal. Please help us and donate now!
ok so, I approached my local library with a proposal to donate a mural as a way to A: build portfolio/gain practical experience and B: give back to a beloved public institution. The director was very enthusiastic about it and i've been working on it since the beginning of March. Come with me as I endeavor to paint what is in all honesty an excessive amount of birds
I wanted the birds to look like they were actually in the space so first thing after doing the draft was to do a lighting study
after that I covered the walls in letters in lieu of a projector/vr headset bc i have neither of those :) Then i take a picture of the section of wall and superimpose the lineart over top of it so I can pencil in the lines
et voila
and that was a whole week on it's own so next comes the paintin' >:)
So we're all pissed at the new update as we should be and I've been seeing many people proposing blackouts, which is amazing! But all the dates are different and people might get confused at what's happening when, so I just want to organize every blackout (at least that I saw) in one place.
So far I saw six people with dates.
The earliest one, organized by @yourlocalfandomfriendo begins on March 18th and will last 48 hours.
This overlaps with a second proposed blackout by @veejiez for March 19th.
There is also one on the 20th proposed by @daysleftofsecondterm and another one on the same day from 6AM UTC to 6AM UTC on the 21st by @everythingwsnormalhere.
These three days are all very soon so not everyone may see them in time to participate, but if you are able to participate for any or all of these days, I highly encourage you do. Otherwise there are two more blackouts coming up:
The next one after these will be on March 24th as organized by @aroacesafeplaceforall who suggested doing 12 hours.
And the last one, which I personally have a lot of hope for as it's a major day for activity on Tumblr and a blackout then could be especially impactful: April 1st, as proposed by @darkwood-sleddog
There is also a discord set up by @yourlocalfandomfriendo and @aroacesafeplaceforall for anyone interested in joining in!
SO OVERALL, it may sound like a lot, but no one expects everyone to participate to every date here. But PLEASE try to participate in at least one or two of these, even if you feel it may not do much.
Typical strikes, the ones we hear about all the time, win by withholding their labour for consistent periods of time; that's the power people have at work because that's what's exploited.
For blackout strikes, we need to withhold our attention; the resource we own which is exploited through the selling of both advertisements and data.
My comparison of blackout strikes with regular strikes will be for a whole other post, but for the time being, just know that
withholding our attention is our digital bargaining weapon
Tumblr literally lost 63% of its monthly traffic from 2024 to 2025; they are not in a position to play around with those of us still here.
So PLEASE try participating. We cannot let every decent online space get enshittified with no care or consideration for the communities using those spaces.
And where labour strikers risk losing incomes and jobs, all blackout strikers risk is... gaining some of their attention back for a little bit.
Witch Hat Atelier Edit - Wriggle by Cosmo Sheldrake.
It feels like a century has gone by since I've finished my last edit. I got really hyped after seeing then new trailers for the show and really wanted to do something. Also I feel Cosmo songs can go really well with many series I like so here we are!
I hope you enjoy it and hopefully for me to get around to making more edits in the near future!
After attacking Iran, Israel has closed all crossings into Gaza, shutting off humanitarian aid and escalating the dire humanitarian crisis facing Palestinians.
Gaza is under siege, and the price of staples has climbed tremendously. Community kitchens have been forced to close due to lack of supplies, and have been unable to afford to replenish their stocks.
Gaza Soup Kitchen is a grassroots organization that uses money from global donors to feed thousands of people every day. Their most recent campaign was to provide food parcels for Ramadan, and they are going to struggle to keep people fed in the midst of this new, horrifying war.
If you are able to, consider donating money to Gaza Soup Kitchen through their GoFundMe or GiveButter accounts to help stave off hunger in the midst of this chaos.
Please help my friend Ahmed (@ahmedaldani333), a teenager living in a tent with his family in Gaza. He is in pain from anemia after going so long malnourished. Donations help his family to afford food and medicine.
It's been raining non-stop since morning; that's nice, but not when you're in a tent and your children are shivering from the cold. They are afraid they will drown inside the tent.
It's difficult to hate the rain, to hate the world, and to give up on life, because you're not living a life like other people.
Oh my God. Israeli occupation forces killed one of our neighbors while he was sitting in front of his tent. If you ignore this, question your humanity.
decided to add all palestinian campaigns that get sent to me in one post. will be updating depending on if i get more sent to me. also contact if any links are broken
Mutual aid groups have seen a HUGE drop in donations in January, and are forced to cut down on aid. Gaza is still experiencing a genocide with 32 Palestinians killed just today (including 6 children) by the military occupation, and the number of people killed since the “ceasefire” surpassed 500.
Less than a quarter of the agreed upon number of aid trucks are entering the Gaza Strip and much of it is commercial, meaning that people need MONEY to buy their basic needs. Money that they don’t have as most people don’t have income and lost their livelihood during the genocide.
The Sameer Project was forced to reduce water by 50% last week, stopped grocery vouchers for 100 families, reduced hours in our two medical points and is no longer taking individual medical cases. DISASTROUS is an understatement for the situation in Gaza so we beg you to mobilize, fundraise, donate, send emails, share and do everything you can to support our people in Gaza!
Donate to the Food & Water Campaign today and share this post with your network!
Translating Falasteen (Palestine), in collaboration with The Sameer Project, launched a fundraising campaign to support families in Gaza fac
