I have a lot of hangups about drawing and painting in general it would take me so many years to unpack, but recently I've gotten to a point I don't totally hate what I make. Along the way, I have weird moments of epiphany — things I should have known but never internalized. Feel free to laugh at my folly. Do keep in mind that, in line of my Manifesto, this post pertains to the act of casual creation (which I defined as something you do for yourself, as a hobby). If you're looking to make ar...| Mirrored W❄️rld
A couple weeks ago, I talked about picking up trad arts again with cheap store brand supplies. With the last pieces I made, I finally feel like I've come to a point where I genuinely like the results. It's a good feeling to have. I'm especially happy to discover how much I am enjoying acrylic paint markers and liquid chalks, two mediums I had never worked with before. I'm telling myself that I can get something nicer after I have used up everything I bought, and it's nice to compile a little ...| Mirrored W❄️rld

It's true. The biggest quality of life upgrade I've gotten myself this year is making the leap from pads to menstrual underwears. Now, if you're still reading, you may be thinking "but there are so many menstrual solution out there, how is this so revolutionary?". Which is great, honestly. That means you're bound to find something that suits you. It's revolutionary for me, because it works for me.| Mirrored W❄️rld

It's not a good week for games and the world in general. To recap, some groups are putting pressure on payment processors (VISA/Mastercard/Stripe...) which in turn put pressures on sites like DLSite/Fanza/Steam/Itch.io/... to censor what is allowed on their platforms. They have been doing this for a while, at first targeting foreign sites you may or may not have heard of and being largely ignored. And then they came to Steam. And more. And everything escalated to high heaven and descended to ...| Mirrored W❄️rld
