probably about six inches of snow froze to ice overnight and our snow shovel is not coping with it 🙃 and it's below freezing temperatures for the rest of the week with possible more snow next weekend 🙃🙃🙃

as someone who is out of the loop what is the homestuck situation right now??

i tried to write an explanation out but it's not as good as this one by nekropsii - i'd stick with that

long and short the unofficial collection's asset pack has been taken down and they are saying this was the result of legal threats and a lengthy bullying campaign. the whole thing has a real strong whiff of callout post and transmisogynistic smear campaign and i do not dispute what they are alleging has happened but like. this is not a measured objective stance on things at all

Idc I'm saying it now, that way some of y'all treat Kenji like he didn't know Brooklynn at ALL for the sake of your lil DS hcs is WEIRDDDD.

They were tgt for 6 years !!! He loved her with everything he had! HE knew her favourite colour was yellow when everyone else thought it was pink! The reason they broke up wasn't because he didn't know the things she loved or that they had fallen out of love, KENJI broke up with her because she was prioritizing her work over him, doing the same shit to him that his father did for most of his life.

The way some of y'all demonize Kenji within the relationship because he gets in the way of your ship when Kenji was a victim of neglect and mistreatment is really strange actually ! It's weird ! I love Brooklynn but she wasn't a poor damsel in distress that was too afraid to leave Kenji and needed her knight in a yellow pufferjacket suit of armor, she was a woman that put her work over her relationship and in turn got dumped, I'm sorry but that's simply what happened.

Worst part of all of this is how the show kind of portrays it in that way too with the confession in s2, since its literally a confession made via shitting on Kenji. Oh Kenji you deserve sm better man, Brooklynn too lowkey because some of y'all refuse to give the woman independence and her own trail of thought unless it involves your ship.

Everyone's a little bit gay, I'm a fully straight woman, but I can appreciate a nice rack, them v necks be doing all the heavy lifting if you know what I mean

Fair enough point. Look, I think everybody can appreciate a nice rack. Female or male. Good Lord, a pair of fat, nice tits could make me forget 'bout all my principles...

MORE INFO about the Shuji Sogabe ryomina doujinshi !!!

hello ryojihead nation !!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope you're all having a good day ^_^ i'm sure the vast majority of you are aware of the persona 3 manga, it's many ryomina tendencies, and it's author, Shuji Sogabe.

sogabe is also rather well-known for having written a popular ryomina doujin, イチゴちゃん SAY GOOD BYE [pictured], under the penname Kanae Kiryu. SGB was released at Comiket 73 on the 29/12/2007, around 10 months after the persona 3 manga began serialisation in dengeki maoh in february that year.

a few days before comiket, sogabe writes on his blog that he'll be handling books from kanae kiryu's doujin circle, ネコ同然。(like a cat.) on the 28/12/2007, he posts a link to kanae kiryu's blog, http://jlc.jugem.jp/ [pictured]

later, on the 14/5/2008, a post is made to kiryu's blog that he applied to, and then later announced on 22/6/2008 that he was accepted to, the ryomina exclusive event Messiah Recipe ! (webpage being: http://messiah-recipe.com)

alongside his acceptance, he also writes that he's working on a new book for the event. on the 26th, he posts again, saying the book will be called ワルツィング・キャット(Waltzing Cat) [pictured], and it was worked on alongside 蒼麻葵 (i believe their current twitter: @tasotaso_nyoro) !

NOTE: on the kanae kiryu blog it is mentioned that Waltzing Cat's front and back cover join together much like SAY GOOD BYE's does, but since very few scans of the book exist, we only have the front cover (which shows minato's hand, at least ^_^;;)

Waltzing Cat was then released as promised at Messiah Recipe's event on June 28th, 2008. (this exclusivity is probably why it's so much rarer!) SAY GOOD BYE was also reprinted to be sold alongside it. a blog post was made on kiryu's blog two days after, thanking everyone who bought books at the event. he writes:

We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all the people who picked up our books at the event. It was the first time for me to participate in an exclusive circle, and I was a little nervous, but there was no big confusion on the day of the event, and the proceedings were very relaxed and peaceful. Thank you to all the staff members! I really wanted to talk to more people, but I'm a chicken at heart and it's hard to build a community.......! Once you get to know each other, you can chat as much as you want. I would like to be a little more proactive next time, since this is a place where people who like the same things can get together.

after a few more posts (mostly about p4), and then a few months of silence, kanae kiryu's blog is closed in March 2009, with a thank-you goodbye message written on 22/03/2009. the only other mention of kanae's circle i found was as part of a persona 3 2009 calendar, presumably made in 2008. link to defunct listing here: https://www.suruga-ya.jp/product/detail/988900972

[pictured below: Messiah Recipe's event information from the website]

i hope everyone had lots of fun at messiah recipe !!!!!!! and i'm glad i could help unearth this information !!!!!!!! let's hope sogabe continues to enjoy persona 3 and ryoji mochizuki for years to come ^_^

therapist: and have you been getting back into art?

me: yeah actually, I've been doing a lot lately, I've been making a lot of murder drones fanart really personal to me and sharing it, and I was surprised I got an audience so quickly. It's been very motivating.

therapist: well that's great! One of these days I'll have you do a show and tell.

me: oh, uhh, um,

therapist: I know you want therapy to just be talking about sad things, but you know you have to be able to get comfortable talking about good things too.
