every time i see people draw themselves/have themselves drawn as one of my alien species it makes me happy still planning to make that vrchat model when i get some other projects out of the way

Its that time again, Commission time! With more examples too! If you're interested please reach out on Discord or thru KoFi, lets draw! #commission #commissions #bugart

with the help of a friend i finally scheduled a consultation with a psychologist as a first step towards getting an adhd screening if literally everything i've read + everything i've heard from friends diagnosed with adhd is accurate there's like... a 99% chance. it would explain so much

I love meeting new friends who are into game dev but then i'm always like "yeah i've been into it for 17 years at this point! anyway here are my 0 games to prove it" and it's humiliating

if it turns out that this is why i haven't been able to pursue my dream project despite having the technical capability for over a decade... i don't know if i'll be relieved to overcome it or devastated that i've lost that much of my life to executive dysfunction.

Saw a couple people fursuiting in public and it took all my courage but I told them I liked their suits and they said thanks It was a little 5 second interaction but it made me happy! I love furries!

Love how Google's reverse image search just doesn't work anymore (but it is good at giving an incorrect description with incorrect artist credit, thanks 'ey eye)

Mind is unfortunately in one of those states where it's convinced that Actually I've been annoying my friends and need to shush Not looking for reassurance, I know it's just my anxiety talking. It's just an unpleasant feeling. I love my friends

I'm barely even an artist with how much I struggle to have it come naturally, but here I am somehow managing to draw one of these things for myself in like under an hour. Congratulations xP (Idk what colors to give it currently)

So... since it appears that I'm going to be... stuck as a squishy alien squid creature, I figure an updated profile image might be called for. (As before credit for the design and creation of the species goes to @ktcmoop.bsky.social . Be sure to give them a follow!)

Once again thank you to everyone who's been having fun with the whole alien thing, I'm honestly floored by the reception I gotta get off my abdomen and draw already! (Been programming the past few days though at least)

So... uhhh... Funny story. I was checking out a new club recently, with a very "transformative" atmosphere with refreshments like none other. The denizens were quite accommodating and promised a service that was out of this world. (Thanks @ktcmoop.bsky.social for the wonderful species concept!)

Always caught between "should I capitalize my sentences to match this person's tone" or "should I start my messages with lower case to let them know I feel comfortable around them"

Im in a tight spot right now, so ive decided to open commissions for the first time ever. If you're interested in helping me out and getting some cool art, have a look! #bugart #art #commissions

If my status is "offline" there's a nonzero chance that I'm actually just doomscrolling in bed, and even if I am asleep I don't mind waking up to a bunch of messages TL;DR if you want to message me then message me!
