He/They. Fat, cringe, nerd, mini-painter, socialist, from nowheresville Canada.

Work(ed) in 2D animation (looking for work).

Eat the rich. ACAB. 🇸🇩. Fuck AI
I have 2 art beliefs but I'm not sure how to connect them

1. Art is a hard-learned skill. Artist is a serious job that should be paid well

2. Art is an inherent human activity, but professioanlizing it has made many think it's only for pros; When really everybody should make art, no matter how bad

A LotR themed fighting game named Morgul Combat.

I just printed some 10mm scale Chorfs... But I already have a host of 10mm scale goblins and beastmen that need painting...

*The ruling class spews forth endless mountains of single-use trash, drowning the world for profit. You have scavened the debris and built mechs to fight back. The machines are daunting, and you are wired in so thoroughly that what hurts it hurts you. Your reactor is your heart; Burn hot and fight!*

Do I really need to update to Win 11? I really don't want to, Win 11 sucks... But I also don't want the hastle of switching to an OS that's entirely foriegn to me (linux).

Planning out some possible future linocut prints.

Can I please exchange my brain for a normal one, that actually lets me think about and plan for the future without spiraling into depression and anxiety, certain that I'll never find decent work again and I'll either end up 65yo woring at the supermarket or dead alone in a ditch? Please!?

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Found my old Steadler 2mm lead holders today, and like 3 barely used packs of red leads from waaay back in my animation school days.
Really need to get back on the drawing horse (well, the metiphorical drawing horse at least, real ones are a pain in the back to sit at.)

I caved in and ordered one.
Spending far too much money lately, that I really shouldn't be spending.
Need to get off my ass and get a web store up for prints and art things so I can at least have pocket change while job searching.
I would like a shitty little mp3 player. Let me listen to my tunes without my computer or carrying my screen-breakable pocket computer that loves falling out of my pocket.

I wish I liked my art better. Everything I draw feels like failure lately, and it's making me afraid of ever putting pencil to paper. That fear is strangling any ideas or excitement.
How do you get yourself to let go enough that you can just draw without hating yourself again?

“THE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

The bad thoughts are starting early today. Need to do stuff to make it stop, but I feel like I'm just stuck
November 21, 2025 at 4:29 PM
Give me more sad yet cozy TTRPGs; or creepy yet chill ones. Less high adventure (though that's fun AF, but it's also eeeeverywhere) and more stuff like woodland critters guiding lost spirits to rest... or whatever.

Brainworms are hitting pretty bad tonight.
Vaesen game in ~40mins. Really not loving this campaign, feeling very checked out.

I need more trains in my life, and far fewer cars

This was supposed to be a single kitbashed mini. It is becoming a wall-plaque diorama, and the actual miniature hasn't been started yet 😅

I think the screen for my resin printer is dead.
November 17, 2025 at 1:20 PM
A discord server I basically live in is doing a x-mas kitbash thing. Trade prompts, kitbash and paint a mini, share on a call.
Well, despite getting a late start, I may have just begun building a diorama display base/plaque instead of a lone mini 😅

Pierogi lunch 😁

They were a little freezer burnt 😑

I think my art is dead. I can't do anything good anymore. No drive. No ideas that are sparking a desire to get them on paper; And any that almost get there are squashed by my certainty that I'm too unskilled to do them justice. All I can make now are empty, ugly nothings with no meaning behind them.

Ok, I really need to not read stories about how horrible the animation and games job market is right now. 6 months deep into unemployment and no sign of prospects, and a new family tragedy coming up every month.
