Hi! I'm Cheru, an illustrator and writer who draws what I love and tries to have fun while doing it. I make anime and anthro art, and a lot of pin-up! I also make webcomics, with titles including Requiem Mask and The Refuge. Main Tags: #Art | #OC | #Comics | #FurryArt Links: cherusake.com

I don't know if I shared this earlier, but this happened and I can't even express how comical the moment really was. The sound I made was not attractive in the slightest. XD

About to show my mom a silent walkthrough of Silent Hill PT (she can't stand commentary, I'm learning) and I'm excited to hear her thoughts on whether it's as good as watching a horror movie or not.

@cherusake.bsky.social

LOL ...well, because it was strictly a walkthrough and didn't stop to enjoy the ghost appearances, she thought it was meh. I told her these games are completely different when you're in control and it actually sparks your survival instinct.

Part of processing my anger involves a LOT of talking with my safe people over Dirty Bird in Helluva Boss. But it also ended up with a part of the conversation where I remembered when we discovered that I was more dom than sub. And it made me chuckle. (Re: the first time someone used a flog on me)

My week was really rough. Helluva Boss triggered my cPTSD, and my safe people spent days trying to unpack what was hitting me so hard to the point of stopping eating. Then work? Some rando that quit tried to throw me under the bus by lying and trying to smear my name. Thankfully my rep saved me.

But holy moly, it's just been some wicked stress and miserable, so I'm looking forward to just ...not. My mom wants to just stay in pajamas all weekend but I'm going to try to convince her to go with me to get my new computer today. I know if I can get back to doing my art, it'll perk me up a lot.

I think I actually slept last night. What a concept. And I mean... I love my new bed. (The duvet) ...I'm very much a nester and this has satisfied this itch, so I sleep much more soundly.

CheruSake@cherusake.bsky.social

I finally got a new duvet cover for my bed and I love how ...dreamy vampire inspired it is. Once I have my own house again, I'll be able to paint and make my perfect nest! ^^

I'm still debating if I want to get red velvet curtains. I have olive green ones right now, which were a random find at a return store. I love them, but they don't necessarily match.

Exercise is important to a healthy lifestyle! Cheru doodle I did a while back. I have an idea to redo it. But it's still cute. #Art #OC #Cherushi #Cheru #Furry #FurryArt

Going through some of my WIPs to see if I can re-do anything to ease back into the arting... But frankly, this one is done. It's a masterpiece. I ain't touchin' it. #Art #OC #Kaori #Animated (sort of? LOL)

Okay, wait. Can someone explain to me - in #HelluvaBoss - they really made it seem like Blitz was his first and only friend/love? Where the hell did Vassago come from? (Like yes. I get school and all that, but like ...no mention of him at all until now save for an appearance at the trial)

As much as it's not really a surprise, especially given the industry right now coupled with the Saudi sale, the news today still made me sad. BioWare joins other great studios of the past, with a legacy that will not soon be forgotten. 😔 www.forbes.com/sites/paulta...

I don't know what's going on with my last post, but I deleted the last one with the typo, then it reappeared? So I deleted it again, and it deleted the fix too?? I posted it again, but if there's multiple copies of it ...I dunno. I guess my Bsky is possessed. LOL

So, fun fact, I am a disabled, neurodivergent queer person. I work full time to support myself even though I probably shouldn't be working. I ironically teach and help prepare other disabled people how to re-enter the workforce. I still have to create my art on zero spoons outside of work.

@cherusake.bsky.social

I have found over the years that I either have to choose art or choose survival. As I'm older, I have chosen survival. So, yes. My art is slow now. My art takes time to come out. It's sad. But I don't ever want to go back to begging for support. The fear was too much and damaged my mental health.

Am I depressed because I'm not doing what my soul calls me to do? Yes. But I also realize that I can't do that if I can't afford my rent.

I always thought the ultimate goal of growing up was mastering things like humility, empathy, and critical thinking. They’re still important, but it turns out, an equally crucial life skill is just learning how to remain unbothered by people who refuse to do any of those things.

You know what I dream of? The day when autocorrect doesn't change words proudly to the wrong word. Like making my "Matcha tiramisu" into "match"... Or writing "tucking" into "f--" EVERY DAMN TIME. Like, YES, I swear. But sometimes I want to be TUCKED into bed. NOT-

After being put right back in pain again (like resetting a bone but less dramatic) I decided to treat my mom and myself to my favourite Japanese restaurant. We ate so much (considering I've only had 2 meals in 2 days) and even got match tiramisu desserts for us - which I then ate both. She was like:

@cherusake.bsky.social

Holy moly. I was like "Naaaahhhhh I don't need to go to the chiro. I'm fiiine after attempting to eat the pavement last week." I found all new hurts. And now everything is having to compensate for the Overcompensation my body had done, so I'm sitting crooked like "this was straight earlier." Lol

@cherusake.bsky.social

Think like ...you're leaning to the left, but you're thinking it's straight. But after the adjustment you realize how left you were because you go back to your "straight" before the adjustment. And you're suddenly WAY MORE LEFT. And now you CAN readjust to sit up straight.

Well, one bit of good news - the place I'm planning on getting my computer made at does flex payments, so I may actually be able to get it this month after all, and then not have such a huge expenditure in one go. I do like being able to make chunk payments. So here's hoping!

CheruSake
@cherusake.bsky.social

Oof. I just watched EPs 1-3 of season 3 for Helluva Boss and I can genuinely say one of the scenes actually made me nauseous. Don't get me wrong, I love this show and the story they're telling, but holy shit that was deeply upsetting as a Blitzø/Stolas shipper.💔 Moreover from personal experience.

CheruSake
@cherusake.bsky.social

I was all excited to watch, but now I'm just sitting here with a massive migraine, upset stomach, and still trying to focus on work. Great story telling to cause this much real emotion, yes. But holy shit. I ...do not feel good after that.

I know the "___ baskets" are overconsumption at its core, but good god... I would seriously love a high quality boo basket. Halloween is my Christmas. Do I want stuff I can only use once a year? No. But things I can use within a few months and others that work all year round? Heck yes!

CheruSake
@cherusake.bsky.social

I think the original concept is really sweet. A pass it on kindness concept (because that's what it was: you get one, you give one - not a every season splurge) that would be nice to receive and do.

CheruSake
@cherusake.bsky.social

My perfect boo basket? A nice smelling candle, a bath bomb or bubble bath, a book, some stickers, and maybe a cute scarf I could wear. Just something to make a nice night of reading and coziness.

Ah, I see I was too upset to update after this. 2 steps out of the Uber when I got home, I rolled my ankle and ate pavement. I'm beat up real bad, lost a chunk off my pinky finger... And now my cohort has been pushed back to next month. So ...I wasted time and got hurt doing it.

CheruSake@cherusake.bsky.social

Got the rest of the organizing done for all the STUFF for my cohort, give or take a few items, but I'm gonna work from home the rest of the day because it sucks being a girl 🫠
