tricky pitfall seeds. then when they're in the pitfall i'll keep punching them.

diffusus said: Kids always scream like they’re being murdered. The kids who live in the same apartment complex as psyanoid are especially crazy

exactly. that's why i hate most children. i have those living nearby me as well, during the mooncake festival i felt like throwing candle bombs at them.

fuqdapoleez said: i know the feeling except 95% of the time they’re kids parties that I haaaaave to be nice to orz

that's another level of hell right there, that's the worst thing ever. i wish you can summon Bonnie ala Persona to dropkick them. 

bottom line is: let's all hold hands in a group circle and hate children together.

diffusus said: People on dA are so hung up on style too. you draw in a way but then get bored and change it up. people would go I LIKED YOUR OLD STYLE BETTER this was really damaging and i felt stressed out to find a style and stick to it. Entitled shits.

damn, i understand you too well, guppy. the thing is.. anyone can give advice, but we have to ask them: is that advice beneficial? are you getting paid to cater to some prick's fancy? i was badly affected from this when i started working, it took one year to undo the damage..now i can easily dive into any style due to working as an illustrator. i was told i was stubborn in my first month, that was my wake-up call. i have to stop doing it and embrace other styles so the clients will actually pay the agency. when i changed, some of my so-called fans saved my old art to photobucket and livejournal. called me a disappointment. i can't even make this shit up. in the real world, i eventually ran out of excuses for my mistakes, i have to learn or just die poor like the stagnant masses on DA.

dyp100 said: I feel like dA taught me a lot about the “artist & fan” relationship and how toxic it can be, how there is loads of ego feeding and putting people on a pedestal and blargh. Disgusting shit, still see that on tumblr but luckly not as much, thank fuck.

true. the notes i get all reflect the idiocy of comparison. i was put on a pedestal, nobody sees the person behind the art, they see the entertainment, fan art and comic machine. i've been used as a comparison on DA, i've gotten notes in july by people telling me they can draw as well as me, then when they found my tumblr they got depressed because they didn't see my new art, only the old shit on DA since 2011. that mindset is so unhealthy, art is not a race. and even if it is i'm running on the programming track now, i don't give a shit.

there's bias, so much of it. there's the mindset of "let's not give her exposure, she's already popular", i hated this so much... and even some of my own friends were like that but i respected them too much to bother about this. i was miserable in 2012. i'm glad there's not much of that towards my art now. tumblr is better for me and everyone else, i learned more about my friends from their posts, got to see more of their personal side instead of just COOL DRAWANS N WRITING. i don't see anyone as a fan, they're just people or fellow artists these days.

diffusus said: Oh happy independence day! :>

thank you guppy! i'm glad my birthday is on Sweden's national day so i could celebrate it with you guys too XD

teripops said: Awww, this is way classier than anything America could come up with for our independence day. So I’m forced to believe this is wrong and those flowers need to be hot dogs and explosions.

haha.. thanks desertbro. i celebrated it at midnight yesterday with my friends. we went to KLCC where they set off the fireworks. i bought some flags to hang at my apartment too. i love hibiscus flowers :D

istillwannabeasailorsenshi said: No, that’s a fantastic idea!

thank you so much! i honestly didn't think it would be feasible. the shelter's always needing pet food and i'd really like to buy healthier food for the animals. i prefer if they ate cooked food tbh.

saltkingdom said: do it, I will buy 25000 because that is a lovely idea ♥

YOU SWEET NERDBRO. <3 thank you ok i will draw u extra chibis if you order, you're my biology idol for life.

ammoth said: That would be really cute actually! I’m sure you’d get some interest, your art is really sweet c:

thank you so much ammoth *fistbump* now i have to determine a style for these types of commissions... when i look back at my art it's really weird because i do so many styles because of my dumb habits as an illustrator. i wish i had one prominent style like my friends do.

diffusus said: I’d buy one ;-;

ILU GUPPY. the money would go to the animals and the ones i'm sponsoring. so far i've sponsored three cats, they would appreciate your help :D

juparte said: DO ITTTTT

YAAAASS, thanks for the support, friend!

omg guys, thank you so much for the support for all the times i've been playing ACNL and running this blog. i didn't know there were so many like-minded people who want to help animals. it really encourages me because i volunteer at one shelter and donate to another one (it's too far for me to volunteer at). they have sponsor programs where you choose to donate $30 to a pet of your choice and so far i've sponsored three cats and one dog. sometimes i wish i were rich because i want people to understand that animals deserve better lives too. that's why i volunteer and donate on a monthly basis. the usual things i buy for the shelter are towels, pet food, raw food (chicken, eggs, fish) and toys. i'll make a commission list soon but i have to finish my cash commissions first. i'm really glad that people want to help animals, it's great.

diffusus replied to your post:diffusus replied to your post:how long till one of...

complaining to isabelle actually DOES something? i had no idea haha!

ye dude, although i've noticed it doesn't work 100% of the time with their shirts but if you complain about their clothes they'll change, about their phrase and it'll probably go back to default, if you complain about their letter it'll reset and there might have been smth more but i can't remember heheh

diffusus replied to your post:how long till one of my villagers actually wears...

i wish you could give fashion advice? like “i’m in a style rut, do you have any ideas?” and you could reply like “modern! sporty! rock! indie designer clothes”(indie designer clothes being your own designs maybe) and then they’d try it out maybe?

yea, that sounds super cool - anything to be able to influence what they wear really, other than having to complain to isabelle which doesn't really help much EITHER WAy... but yeah that'd be rad. just more dialogue in general too pls hahah. like what if you could have dialogue updates as downloadable content or smth?? i barely talk to my villagers anymore ><

diffusus said: Ahhhh hang in there malaysiabro ;; (also do you live with an actual calico kitten)

thanks swedebro, as long as i have my painkillers, i'll be ok. i don't wanna get sick.

i do, i brought her back today :D it's an oooooold cat tbh, her name is Mittens. i had to house her at my friends' place because my asthma got really bad. i adopted three cats from the shelter. it would be nice to have them here like last time, but i've gotten sicker throughout the months. since you're living on your own, maybe you should get a cat for yourself. i don't have anxiety problems but i know friends who keep pets and they help a lot with lowering stress levels.
