I am very tired of seeing people posting about being sick of humanity. The bombings were horrific but look at the acts of kindness that took place immediately after the attack. Many people ran away and many more ran towards the blast, clothes were willingly shed to keep pressure on wounds, men reached out and pinched arteries to keep a life from slipping away and bleeding out. Strangers held the hands of strangers and chanted ‘stay with me, I am here, stay with me’. Look at the first responders, the ordinary people who did extraordinary things. Shell shocked people wondered the streets and were invited into homes for food and to charge phones, priests walked through the crowds offering words of comfort, and tired runners kept on running to the hospitals to give blood. I for one refuse to give up on this world. I will not despair, even though there are horrors in this world they do not outweigh the kindness and joy still present.
Wow just… this. I didn’t even look at it like this, either, but that’s amazing.
Someone on my mom’s facebook posted one of those classic “Video games are the root of all evil” articles. So I slammed into them… thoughtfully and nicely, of course. Someone responded in a negative way, of course, and their words would annoy me…
… had my mom not come in to say, “Stop attacking my baby video games aren’t evil.”
You go, mom. You go.
Hey, this post may contain sexually explicit content, so we’ve hidden it from public view.
tl;dr I went to an aquarium with my sister and cousin today and I realized that kanji probably hasn’t seen penguins in his life.
Cue this illustration rough of Naoto taking Kanji to an aquarium and showing him pretty penguins (how do you draw them anywayyyyy)
Kudos to Brichibi for helping me decide on some stuffs yep. Such as drawing them in their post p4g appearance and naoto’s general reaction to kanji uvu
*fangirl squee!!!* Look at how cute my babies are! The idea behind this is that Kanji obsesses over that penguin animal cracker, but he’s probably never actually SEEN a penguin in real life since he’s never left Inaba (and as far as we can tell there’s no aquarium or places like that). So, Naoto takes him to see penguins :)
Dove hired a forensic artist to draw how women see themselves versus how others see them - the results are moving.
Brb crying
Love thyself
I had a strange, very strong reaction to this, because if it were left up to me, who knows how I would describe myself. Real tears. This was a powerful reminder coming from, for me, an unexpected source.
All of the feels.
Fucking Dove *cries*
Seriously though, I can completely relate to this, especially as a cosplayer. The point is to look like the character, but 9 times out of 10 I won’t for a variety of reasons: skin color, weight, ect. So I get worried about posting pictures sometimes. Even if it is a character that I have the “right” features for (Princess Tiana) it’s like, “God but there’s so many pretty, skinny cosplayers who do her so well!” Thank GOODNESS for places like tumblr, with fat positive/race positive cosplay groups, and awesome followers :)
The new hair is also, randomly, making me more confident too ^^

In the process of editing the book, hoping to have it done early next week EVEN WITH DETOUR BEING THIS WEEKEND! Yep. I’m crazy. I know.
But I’m in the second chapter already, that’s good right? Here’s my favorite quote so far from Alex, the main character, to his friend Nicholas in regards to them ever having a chance at dating:
“Nick-Nack I’ve told you that if you grow breasts and stop standing in line at midnight for hard to pronounce video games I’ll give you a shot.”
We’re in the first round of book edits! Follow the blog for more information :)
This is the story of a geeky anime/gaming gal by the name of Chibi. Please fasten your seat belts and prepare for... some sort of ride? Oh! I love to write, and I also love doing crafty things. I go to conventions with my partner and sell woodburned things, clocks, mirrors, and more! So expect to see those on here too :)
