is there any better feeling than making a really bad post and having every single one of your online mutuals line up to tell you they’re personally going to kill you with their own hands
I have officially reached my limit, and I really really need help. I didn’t want to do this because I still have commissions in progress but I am up against a wall.
So, I am opening some emergency commissions:
$10 Headshots
It can be Ocs
Anime/Cartoon/Game characters
Chibi or Regular
Lineart only
+$5 for extra character
$20 Half Body
No background
Lineart only
+$10 for extra character
If you want it colored you can always come back later and we can come up with a price. I will only be doing Lineart for now because I want to do this as fast as I can.
I really need help to pay for my medical expenses and I really need help with bills and groceries. I have absolutely nothing right now and I am desperate.
As always you may also help by buying me a ko-fi or supporting me through Paypal!
If you can’t, you can always help me by reblogging this and signal boosting!
My friend Corgi needs help, she’s awesome and her works are amazing, guys! So, if you want a commission, I totally recommend her! Also, If you may, you can also help sending her a ko-fi or through paypal 🙂 Let’s help her get through it!
I just explained my issues with executive dysfunction to my dad and holy shit he gets it!
I described it like this:
Imagine you’re back at AllPro(where he worked) with fifty phones and they’re all ringing. You want to answer them all because they’re all equal priority. That’s an environmental cue– phones are generally a ‘respond immediately’ cue.
Picking up a phone is a simple thing. You know it’s as easy as deciding which phone to answer and reaching out to pick it up, but your brain is saying “I must answer all of them!” The phones are ringing, and you can’t make your body reach out to pick one up because you don’t have fifty arms to reach out, you don’t have fifty ears to listen with, you don’t have a brain that can process and respond to fifty conversations and you don’t have fifty mouths that can all say different things all at the same time.
Either you do it all simultaneously or nothing will happen. You can want to do it so bad it makes you cry, and you can’t make a decision because no choice seems like the right one. So the task stays unfinished and you get frustrated every time somebody reminds you to “just do it, it’s not that hard!” Because yes, it really IS that hard.
Now, if you had somebody who could point to which phone to answer, you can do it fine. That’s a prompt. Prompting removes the ‘middle man’ thought that says ‘do it all at once’ and gets you to focus on tasks one at a time instead of seeing them as some towering insurmountable mess.
Dad looked at me for a couple of seconds and said something to the effect of, “I didn’t know doing things were that hard for you.”
This is a major, major, major breakthrough between us because dad had it in his head that I left things messy because I didn’t care. While that’s crappy of him to assume, teaching him how that’s not the case and having him really understand it is a huge deal.
okay I’ve never been able to articulate this at all thank you so much for putting words to feelings

Please cite the papers this is from, this is no better than posting stolen, unsourced art. This is someone’s results from their research: their PhD dissertation, ACM TOG, and SIGGRAPH/Eurographics.
me: look at her, shes big, shes buff, shes cool, shes tuff
some talentless hack that should be tossed into the sun: *draws her paler, skinnier, smaller, and/or less muscular to make her ‘prettier’*
me: may god strike you down where you stand
shout out to the vietnamese kids named phuc, dam, bich, son, dat, nga and so much more for enduring the namecalling and jokes about your name; you’re strong and beautiful.
& đông and dủng
lemme tell yall, my mom came to america when she was around 4 y/o and went to school in america and the white kids made jokes about her name becus her name was MyDung. when she was old enough she changed her legal name to a more “acceptable” one becus she was afraid it wouldnt b seen professional in america. she was too embarrassed to say her name out loud. when she did have to, she’d say it quietly. ever since i was a kid i would notice her behavior when ppl asked her name. so yeah fuckin SHOUTOUT to vietnamese kids w/ vietnamese names who get teased, yall amazing
Alright, this post has been going around and I think it’s high time for a lesson in Vietnamese. People who tease foreigners about their names, sit the fuck down and let me show you what those names mean.
_ “Phúc” (Phuc) means phúc đức, phúc hậu, hạnh phúc – kindness, merit and happiness. _ “Đam”, “Đàm” (Dam) mean yên tĩnh, yên lòng, an tâm – tranquility, calmness, relief. _ “Bích” (Bich) means ngọc bích, ngọc lục bảo – emerald, jade (can be understood as both the color and the precious gemstones). _ “Sơn” (Son) means núi, mạnh mẽ và uy nghiêm như núi – mountains, as strong and majestic as the mountains. _ “Đạt” (Dat) means thành đạt, vẻ vang – success, honor, glory. _ “Nga” (Nga) means xinh đẹp, tốt đẹp – beauty, kindness. _ “Đông” (Dong) means mùa đông, hướng đông – winter, East. _ “Dũng” (Dung) means dũng mãnh, anh dũng – strength, power, bravery. _ “Dung” (Dung) means xinh đẹp, yêu kiều – beauty, elegance, grace.
Can you see it? Can you see how beautiful these names are? And you dare compare them to your vulgar profanities?
Names are extremely important in Vietnamese culture. They represent the virtues, qualities, characteristics that parents want their children to possess. They represent the hopes and dreams of Vietnamese parents. THEY REPRESENT A VERY HUMAN BEING.
WHEN YOU TEASE SOMEONE ABOUT THEIR NAME, YOU ARE NOT ONLY INSULTING THEM, YOU ARE MAKING THEM ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES, OF THEIR OWN NAME AND THEIR OWN LANGUAGE, EVEN THEIR OWN ORIGIN.
DO NOT MAKE FUN OF OUR PEOPLE, DO NOT MAKE FUN OF OUR LANGUAGE AND DO NOT MAKE FUN OF OUR CULTURE.
