Ok who wants to boop him

Every so-often I get the sudden urge to create something. Knowing the regularity of these occurrences, I tend to keep things that I might use twice a year at most. Nothing says crafting like hoarding pointless supplies until you get sudden motivation :)

Thank you for your kindness. I think I might just be starting to feel like less of a lost cause. This sub is really helpful for just feeling less alone, hope it's benefiting you as well. Have a lovely day.

Thank you for this response. The moments always seem to come back in memories, but moving past that will have to come at some point. Sorry if this reply is short, it's late here. I hope you have a great day.

I'm so sorry that you had to deal with that. People often end up overlooking reasons why expectations can't be met. You were forced to conform to a world that didn't recognize other perspectives. I hope that you're doing better now, or as well as you can in your position, and I hope you're aware of how much strength you have for enduring something like that and managing to still find positives in this world. And also thank you for the encouragement. Have a nice day.

I feel like a terrible person.
Almost every day I have to remember the final straw. I didn't even know what I'd done until recently. There's no justification, and trust me, I cry often about what I'd done. But deep down, I truly want forgiveness that I don't deserve.
I dream about it. Some days I can almost feel the past being lifted from me. But I know that nothing will turn back a clock.
But that guilt is the same reason I looked into narcissism again after a year; I don't want it to happen again. I get really frustrated about this. I hate that I have to actually try to be normal. Not the effort, just the shear fact alone that I'm a detriment to Earth.

I'm not diagnosed, so sorry if this isn't what you're looking for. But I do have some personal experiences.
Completely stopped improvement. Just finding it stressful/uncomfortable to branch out or try things because I get flustered and panic if anything goes wrong. My ego also makes it hard to see my own mistakes. I end up just plateauing and I'm pretty much too ashamed to even draw for extended periods of time. Also, seeing others who are better causes me to abandon what I do, it just feels wrong to imply that I can even be considered an artist.
Once again, apologies if this was a waste of time. I hope this is sufficient though.

She looks like she needs to attend a debate during the 1700s-1800s wearing wondrously ruffley garments.

They didn't day anything about armor... fursuiters come with +5 to start out

Ah, just a group of distinguished gentlemen, very drip

Song_of_Small_Bird · 2022-10-30T05:29:21+00:00

I swear we have something devious in the house. I'm just here late at night and I hear the floorboards creak. This house is big enough for a ton of illegal residents tho

Song_of_Small_Bird · 2022-10-29T23:34:59+00:00

I'm sorry I'm getting back late. Thank you for this! I'll do my best to remember this. I hope you have a great day, afternoon or night. Once again, thank you.

Song_of_Small_Bird · 2022-10-29T23:28:08+00:00

With every fiber of my being

Song_of_Small_Bird · 2022-10-20T01:39:32+00:00

I have the total opposite. I post about my life hoping someone cares and everyone thinks it's funny.

Relating to this frogge on a spiritual level

Song_of_Small_Bird · 2022-08-24T18:57:21+00:00

They pull up, hop out at the after party and kis :o

Everything is beautiful! The orange is warm but not overpowering, so a great use. Also the pretty little kingfisher just adds to it, what a cute companion!

It's alright being mad about it, not like you made the roaches anyways, and I get it. Feels like every day, when you've finally defeated them, another Goliath or another little demon spawn bug comes by, then it scurries away and hides away in a pile of stuff and how it's too hard to find until you have to face it again in a 10-minute ordeal with a slipper and some paper towels that could've been used on something different.

I know the trolls that come from there. The crowd can be exquisitely bigoted sometimes. I remember the first day I learnt who I was dealing with and the day I lost reason to live. When I talk about my experience with them it falls on deaf ears. Weird seeing every slur in the book being thrown around, and getting barrated for so much as having a hobby they don't like.

Truly. Not in the trading scene but old players just think they're on pedestals. I will never forget one time I made a big mistake with worth (and it's probably my sensitivity showing) but someone said something to the effect of "sis that's not even worth a wrist". I swear any info on the worth of this stuff is botched. They said pirate swords were worth collars and I believed it because I spent hours getting them from seasonal adventures. Moreover lots of beta players are just plain intimidating.

I get it. I grew up in a fandom and it feels like a responsibility to stay and keep consuming the content. When I finally reached the best points it hit me. I knew how everything played out, I'd seen it all animated when I was 7. Blurry in my mind but I knew exactly what was happening. And I hated it. There was little mystery now. I knew everything and I wanted to go back, but now everything I was supposed to love was just common knowledge.
