What's up pudding cups!

Welcome to my blog!

<3

Check out the stuff I make and / or support me!

Clicking the names will take you there!

RedBubble: turtwig387

I have a lot of cute designs, including ones of my stuffed animal pig you may have seen! I also have photography and a variety of other art, drawings, paintings, digital. I add new things sometimes!

Here's the post with my sister modeling a shirt with my design on it!!! It's one of my favorite designs and it is just one of many designs you can get on my RedBubble shop!

YouTube: Ari Painful Writer

I'm not monetized yet and I would love to be.

I make a lot of video game videos, but other stuff too.

I would love to show off some art, read things I wrote, play guitar, cook and bake, etc.

I want to do let's plays style videos soon!

I've been streaming a lot on YouTube and Twitch! I use restream to stream to both at the same time.

I am not doing YouTube or Twitch just for money! I am genuinely having fun with it. Getting monetized would really help anyway, though.

On YouTube I need more subscribers and watch hours before I can get monetized. Shorts do NOT count as watch hours. It's unclear if livestream hours count or not while they're live... but it seems they do count if they're rewatched while not live.

Twitch: turtwig387

I've been streaming a lot on YouTube and Twitch! I use restream to stream to both at the same time.

I'm having fun!

I need more viewers before I can become an affiliate and wayyyyy more viewers before I could become a partner.

Amazon Wishlists

I have two different wishlists,

Stuff I only need or want one of

and

Stuff I can always use more of.

I made separate lists because there's an option for lists to have items be removed from the list after purchase, or to stay on the list after purchase, but the setting applies to the whole list and you can't set it just for specific items.

Most of the stuff on the lists are just fun stuff and not needs! If you sort with priority from high to low, the things I need or want more will come up first.

PayPal: @Ari387

Pretty straight forward! Maybe you like the things I post or you like my writing or my art or my videos. Maybe you want to support me. That's a pretty direct way to do it!

Let me know in the paypal note or in a tumblr message of some sort that you're from tumblr and sending me money! I use my paypal to collect money on behalf of a friend often and don't want to mix up transactions.

I will keep this post pinned and update it sometimes!

Feel free to reblog <3

when i was allegedly a woman i was briefly married to a cis guy before coming out as a lesbian and getting a divorce. my now ex-husband, a genuine sweetheart of a man, was very kind about it all and we remain good friends.

twenty-five (!) years later I came out as a trans man.

now. the important thing to know about my ex-husband is that he loves nothing more than 1) horrible puns, preferably bilingual ones; 2) terrible dad jokes; and 3) committing to the bit until the end of time. he absolutely lives for Shenanigans and Japery. i do not know how his long-suffering wife puts up with him, but they've been married for more than 20 years so presumably she manages.

so, to break the news to my ex, i texted him. the exchange went something like this:

me: "great news, i'm a trans guy now"

him: "oh, congrats!"

me: "thank you. now for the better news: I insist you refer to me henceforth only as your ex-husband. do you accept this challenge?"

and my cis, straight-as-an-arrow, lives-in-the-midwest, married-to-a-minister ex-husband was like

AND HE DOES! gleefully and completely straight-faced, as I understand it. confuses the hell out of everyone, none more than cishet conservative people who've known us both for decades and know for a fact he's only been married twice. I hope he never explains.

so hard not to become the most annoying person on earth if you're a little excitable and just learned a little about a topic literally no one around you has any interest in

I was thinking of a pride art challenge people could do with their OCs, because I thought it'd be cute! A queer/trans artist with their creations.

but then I realised that same challenge would be infinitely more funny with folks who have atypical or horror OCs

being at work while your personal life is falling apart has to be among the top 3 worst human experiences. You’re at your absolute lowest and someone wants to circle back on an email…… unreal

[youthincare]

people should be allowed to have low ambition, and also be able to feed a family on the salary of a cashier at a convenience store.

[daily-reminders-that-ur-enough]

This does not mean you can always do it alone or in a vaccum. This means you have what it takes to get through hard times and when you find your personal strength low, you can turn to community.

the version of you from five years ago would be genuinely amazed by what you’ve handled since then. sit with that for a second
