Iron Giant approved.

I speak for all that still believe in its magic - take all the time you need to polish it and don't neglect an ounce of detail. 💖

You'll get thereeee! It's a distinction between what level of quality you want and how you view the rest of the world.

What is recognizable vs. How you breathe life into it

Always starts as an idea. And we know you're always filled to the brim with ideas, you just have to be willing to experiment.

Like Ruby and Sapphire, I relate to her sorrow.

I love my Mom. I love her so much.

Wherever I end up, I'll be sure to keep a spare bedroom open next to my office. With this photo of my Honeygirl at her side for shits and giggles.

But nah, I'm letting my work speak for me in order to pack up and leave. For how hard we love? We owe nothing that will sabotage our true intentions.

What isn't for us can get the hell out of our way so we can actually earn peace of mind.

She has to value her 70 years of breath and independence.

I'm not one to weaponize my past, but I genuinely think I need to be more selfish and guarded with who I allow in my life that aren't using propaganda or conspiracy theories to make me crazier than I actually am.

And I don't let people in because it's usually me that listens to people's problems.

FFXIV Archive has moved to another location, now to make that godforsaken meme my current reality.

Congratulations, my precious hard drives - you have survived the purge.

People that read these oftentimes wait for me to fail anyway to justify their reactiveness rather than become proactive so lol.

Might as well be honest and say I don't care about never being taken seriously just because of what I stand for and never existing past birthday celebrations.

Oh well.

At the end of the day, I know who I am and what I'm capable of becoming for my life's work. I never needed validation to feel comfortable, and certainly don't need people to "like" me to get shit done.

So don't get offended if I have to numb myself. I focus on my purpose instead of my problems.

Down to 170GB, I hope it will be done before I prepare for 7.4 so I start Raids, but my Art Prep is still in the works during my periods of silence.

I wish I played this in 2018, but there's a lot I'm looking forward to that will go beyond Drawing, Storytelling, Character Design, and Video Editing.

Oh, but what do I know? I'm as valuable as my Follower Counts on the social media I've yet to breathe life to.

Twitch Channel is dead.

I'm too old to make an impact, and too late to grow like younger artists. My opinions aren't valid just because I contribute to others what I've denied myself. /s

If your "success" has to be fed with lies in order to belong, you have a lot of growing up to do.

No one is better than anyone else, but no one has the right to complain when others are putting forth an effort to change their mindset and environment on the very things people complain about.

The late night chats on MSN about how much you needed to study, how stressed you were about for GPA, and the episodes of Matt/Sean in the background.

Ahh that was so much fun when we hung out together at MegaCon. We need to go to other cons 2026-27.
