What a year, eh? Early on I saw someone posit that this would be the stupidest year yet, and so far it has not disappointed. Indiscriminate application of state violence, rampant corruption, the revelation that there really is a cabal of pedophiles but they're the wrong people so nobody cares. To make matters slightly better, I drew Natasha several times. You can attempt to enjoy her with me if you like. It does seem to help me a bit.
Well, that's another year in the books. A lot of folks like to celebrate the end of the year with a look back at what they accomplished. Not me! It's already here for you to see, all the way back to 2022 or maybe even earlier. Other folks look to the horizon to talk about what is to come in the year ahead. Not me! I refuse to consider what might happen in the future. I exist in a perpetual twilight, trapped in a moment of time forever drifting into the future at the typical rate.
November started strong with quite a bit of drawing, then petered out a bit toward the end of the month. I drew Kei and Yuri from Dirty Pair for some reason. Quite proud of that one. I tried my hand at drawing a character with white hair looking up and to the left, which was the style at the time. I drew Natasha a bunch. I drew Merry and Jess from Merry Hell as Peridot and Lapis from the Steven Universe episode when Peridot was most egregiously tiny. Typical November stuff. My situation has grown somewhat more tenuous in the last couple weeks so looking forward I'm not sure if I will deliver much in December. This is fairly typical for me, though, since I do most of my drawing at work and they typically close down the last two weeks of the month for the holidays. I guess we'll see!
Well, I can't say that October went well for me. I retreated to familiar ground and regrouped a bit, but also I have to admit it shook me loose a bit, there was catharsis as well. I'm going to draw more. I'm going to write more. I'm going to hang out with friends more. Life is for the living, and I need to live it while I still have a liver.
Did you remember? Did you remember the 21st night of September? Did you remember to wake up when September ended? September is a month for remembering many things.
One year ago, Cohost shut down. In the wake of this highly unsurprising development I was compelled to bring back The Encyclopedia of Pointless. This year, I was yeeted off Tumblr merely for posting hundreds of lewd anime images. Well, joke's on them, now I have my own website for posting lewd anime images. I shan't share it here, but ask and you shall receive.
Speaking of asking and receiving, I asked myself if I was up to drawing anything in the month of September and I received the following images from myself. It's not much, but any art is better than no art in these dark days.
August happened recently, or so I am led to believe. Weird how time seems to progress in a linear fashion even when all this other stuff is also happening.
Art also happens despite everything else going on, and that art, such as it is, has been collected here. You may notice Lyn among the artworks on display within, she is a character owned by the lovely Alex who can be found Here, Here, and presumably, Colorado. Check them out, they're really nice!
