this has aged like milk AHAHAH
- new level of migraine
- work-related disrespect and rejection
- car was towed
One single day changed the course of my life from incredibly good and chill to chaos!! Nothing feels real right now!! I should get a drastic haircut to commemorate it

I unlocked a new level of migraine where my vision gets funky! Yay! To the left of my field of visuion there is a fissure in reality where it looks like someone cut into the TV screen! Awesome! I love it!

currently trying to plagiarize one of 2021-Kathrin‘s art styles, because one publisher wanted to see more of it 🧘‍♀️ and I said „yes of course I‘ll send you more“ 🧎‍♀️ and it‘s been over a week already 🏄‍♀️

I just… wished my extended family liked me. They don‘t have to love me or be proud of me. Just have normal expectations and see a few redeeming qualities in me.
Might as well wish upon a star like a child. And keep on living my silly life.

In Querlitz ist ein Meteorit eingeschlagen und vier Mitarbeitende des Bürgeramtes versuchen mit dem Chaos, das dadurch entstanden ist, klarzukommen. Das ist der Plot einer neuen Animationsserie, die schon bald im ZDF zu sehen sein wird.

The panic always has a home between my ribs. Bravery never seems to fully take root. Am I not of the earth? Am I of the air, made to be swept away, to tumble, to soar and fall? Are we all? Every creative spark seeks to burn, not to root.

started doing one (1) spreadsheet in preparation for the big book fair and it‘s already getting to my head… delusional confidence… alllll the publishers will jump and clap and shower me with contracts, I‘m sure
