My best friend just said "somebody take my idea because I don't want to put the work in" that's how I feel when people give me their pin ideas
Things I have learned since coming out as Lesbian:
1. It's completely valid to come out of the closet late/in stages, even if your family/environment is accepting
2. Most people will be accepting and won't be surprised
3. LGBTQIA+ should just be renamed the Zodiac Cult
At Ohoyocon I saw Zero Two cosplayer and I offered free zero two pin to them. They were all excited when I said free pin, but once they saw the pin they said "no thanks" and left! And I was like "ok 🥲". Listen, if an artist offers you FREE art. Just take it with a fake smile.
When I first designed the Sakura Hive Ita Backpack several people told it it was too deep. That it would be too weird and bulky for people to want to buy it. Ohayocon proved that wrong. So many people bought it for it's sheer size. I am so proud that I stuck to my guns.

I never understood how people get mad at comedians making jokes about hard topics. When I was a child I was molested, and I didn't know it was a problem until I saw the s04e16 @SouthPark episode. IMO we should only be mad when the joke is made and it's not funny. 🤷🏻♀️

this is a long but INCREDIBLY in-depth video by @FoldableHuman that focuses on not only environmental impact but also a full look at the market and all of its intertwining atrocities. Highly recommend, if not just for cathartic purposes 🧘♀️

I just realized some day I will need to say the name to this character and I will accidentally say Carbacca. It is inevitable. Why? Because my Ex and I had a Chewbacca squishmallow that lived in my car named Carbacca. I already have to correct my brain to say Chewbacca. Send help
Ok I feel like this rant could get people mad, but here we go. As an artist, I can't stand that everyone I meet has an opinion of what I should make for my business. I am sick of "You should make a pin of *fill in random off brand thing here*"
But along that same thread, if you don't have your own art business, please don't push me to do a Collab with you. I know you have ideas for a cool ita bag, but collabs are when two people come together to use their experiences to create something new. When you come to me with an
One of my biggest frustrations with my ADHD is how people perceive my symptoms. Like my forgetfulness, when I forget something people assume it must not have mattered to me in the first place. It's not true and it causes so much trouble in my relationships.
As someone who's love language is giving gifts, I have to say I hate when people say "it's the thought that counts" in regards to gifts. 9 times out of 10 they didn't put that much actual thought into the gift.
In other words. The love behind giving gifts is showing you thought about THEM (and all that makes them them) when you weren't around them. Like for me a $60 FPS video game, is less about "the thought that counts" than a $10 Jiji necklace.
My cats have only ever known me working from home so they don't seem to have depression from the pandemic beginning. I think it more has to do with the sudden change than anything else.
