I had to entirely re-export this. I drew it nine years ago and the files were corrupted.

It was funny opening up the old files and seeing how different my priorities were and how many basic mistakes I was making.

This sequence was my baby back then and I remember being so proud of it.

🧵I am so so tired. My new place I moved into is riddled with pests. I have tried every preventative measure possible. My landlords are slumlords that taken advantage of my previous situation. They are rude and do not care of any of my grievances I have been airing to them for the past 3 months+

I need to pay this amount to start the transfer process. They REFUSE to lower my rent let alone cut the prices because all they care about it money. There are flies crawling through broken windows in my apartment causing an infestation. This has been ongoing for the past 3 months. I have been too stressed to sleep let alone be productive. It's been such a struggle. I just need help paying this and I can get started on the transfer process. I was promised a renovated unit and was given one that had broken windows and pest provlems

They have been doing nothing but trying to screw me over here and refuse to come fix any and every issue I have. I am tired and I want out. I will be moving to a different complex, within the company, and it will be much better.

More info in alt text. They have been nothing but rude and brushing my grievances aside. I am stressed to the point I just want to vomit. I absolutely hate asking for help online, but I am at my wits end. If you would like to donate my Kofi is here ko-fi.com/deneko

Hey y'all! Here's part 1/2 of some boards I did for @jellybox.bsky.social for the remix of Everything is Fine, by @qbombband.bsky.social, remix by @livingtombstone.bsky.social! These boards were kept SUPER loose and served more as a general guideline for each of the animators.

These new Mystery Skulls Animated clips are posted on our most recent patreon update, but I thought I'd share them directly here too for easier viewing. We wanted to show off two compiled scenes we've been putting together for the next video!

This particular sequence in this particular episode I had SUCH a vision for, and @samuraiames.bsky.social was able to bring it to life EXACTLY as I imagined it! 😭❤️

Samantha Ames 🔜 MiraiCon @samuraiames.bsky.social · 4d

Giving credit where credit’s due! @vivziepop.bsky.social thumbnailed this AMAZING shot. Any opportunity to bring a director’s vision to fruition during the boarding stage is an honor ✨ Thank you for entrusting your TV man to me, Viv!

Got permission to say, this AWESOME shot was originally thumbnailed [sketched] by @vivziepop.bsky.social 💖 it was an honor to be in charge of tying it down during the boarding stage 💕
