I finally decided to cave and make an official art blog. That way people can easily find my art because tumblr isn’t the best at finding stuff!
I’m a hobby artist who draws very infrequently.
I don’t have a desktop so I only use the mobile app (pray for me)
My main is @alpine-forget-me-nots!
I will no longer be posting my art on this blog! I now have a dedicated blog how respectable
I’ll probably still reblog my art but it will no longer be posted here first
Y’all in the American SW and west Mexico better check the national hurricane center and your weather for this weekend and next week.
Hurricane Hilary is about to make landfall and that whole desert area is supposed to get a years worth of rain or more. Death Valley is supposed to get twice the annual rainfall. Severe winds, massive flooding, and landslides are all strong possibilities.
This is gonna get ugly. Please spread the word. This is a majorly anomalous event and people may be unaware of the threat headed their way.
I've got commissions open over on ko-fi !! All info can be found over there!
Heating pads can burn you.
They can burn you quite badly.
I saw a post the here other day that asked how to “get rid of heating pad marks.”
Folks. If you have “heating pad marks” those are burns. And they can become much, much worse if you continue to use a heating pad on the same area of your body.
I know most folks with chronic pain scoff when we read the warnings on a heating pad. “Don’t lie on this pad.” Yeah. Sure. Lying on it is exactly the main thing you’ll be doing.
But please. Please always have a layer of protective fabric between the pad and your skin. Never, ever use a pad directly on your bare skin.
Never fall asleep on a heating pad. I know it’s easy to do, but you’re much more at risk for getting a bad burn when you’re asleep.
And never combine use of a heating pad with a topical analgesic (like Icy Hot, A535, Tiger Balm, Voltaren, Lakota creams or roll ons, essential oils or any other topical pain reliever) the oils and plant compounds in these products will accelerate burns. Do not apply anything to your skin and then use a heating pad.
And if you burn your skin, take a break from using the heating pad. I know that’s hard because many of us rely so heavily on them for pain management.
But you can permanently damage your skin by repeatedly burning it and dramatically increase your risk of cancer by doing so.
Be careful.
Please reblog this for the chronically ill folks in your life/ who follow you who use a heating pad
this is so upsetting, PLEASE rb to spread awareness
PLEASE, PLEASE REBLOG THIS, WHETHER YOURE JEWISH OR NOT.
THIS IS A SUPER IMPORTANT PART OF OUR HISTORY, DONT LET IT GET DESTROYED.
perhaps help take steps to stop them now from future attempts...
was gonna make a comp of stuff from the various interesting things from th various muppet style guides but this one hit so hard i had t post it on its own
im gonna keep wearing make up and your bitchy little "im so much better and cooler than other girls" post isnt gonna stop me <3.
Hi. You’re getting defensive about something you perceive as a personal attack and it’s blinding your critical thinking. If you skim the tags for half a second you’ll see dozens of people talking about how they feel a deep encompassing shame if they go anywhere without wearing makeup. I think it’s bad that people have been conditioned to be embarrassed of their own face. I never got into makeup, but when I was in high school I made the decision to delete Snapchat forever because it got to the point where my stomach would drop every time my face went from Filtered Face to my own face.
It’s good and healthy to develop your self esteem enough to feel comfortable around other people in public without makeup. it takes 2 seconds to look and see that’s clearly not the case for so many people. I have nothing but empathy and respect for the people who are aware they have a problem and are scared of the amounts of work they have to do to get past it.
And Odds are, people who have a healthy relationship with makeup are not people who get so ruffled by a post that states “some people are addicted to makeup” that they send anons calling someone a bitch. I think it’s worth it to consider and sit with why you had such a knee jerk reaction to an innocuous statement. Wish you nothing but the best and a good day to boot.

Meet Cure Queen. A character that "shatters" the formula for the Precure universe. I do have a colored but I don't feel comfortable sharing that yet... But I hope you all like her and her potential! What do you think @emil162 ?
i am in fact NOT being very brave about it and will whine and complain until i die. As is my right
I hate the "Oh ur posting without tags? how is anyone supposed to find ur post🥺" warning shit tumblr does now. the hand of god will deliver me unto others
weirdest part about being an artist (and, to an extent, a writer too) is feeling like. shameful that you aren't creating massive pieces of art. how dare i not line and color and shade every drawing. how dare i only draw two poses. how dare i only write 1k words. how dare i not write an entire book. how dare i
Obsessed with when cats sit like old men so I wanted to draw Grim in that hunched-over position lol

very proud of myself for being able to drive but the second people start naming highways and roads and shit i’m out. “did you take 69 south? Come in at pissy shitty parkway?” brother i put it in maps and it took me here. You are speaking another language to me right now. one i am not even remotely fluent in.
i’ve embarrassed myself in front of so many lovely women. i was just kidding. I know so many road names and highways. you wouldn’t BELIEVE the amount of navigational prowess. that i possess.
