Put Pelican In Star House?? @thestarfishface

Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now?

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.

Hello there 👋

The holiday season can take its toll. What should be a time of joy and celebration can be a period of stress, blues, or even burnout 😩 fortunately for all y’all, that is where Sunday comes into play.

And that is why we are back with Self-Care Sunday, to ensure that you get some essential downtime that y’all need to truly look after yourself. We are partnering with Therapy for Black Girls, who have put together some essential resources to help YOU through the winter. 🌠

This second week is simple, but vital. We are looking at The Importance of Community and Friendship! 

During the pandemic, and in the years after, we all learned so much about the importance of community and friendship for emotional well-being. Join @therapyforblackgirls Community Manager, Jasmine Jones, for some essential tips on sustaining healthy relationships. Felt you were not celebrated by your circle in 2023? Well, find out how to find the people that will do just that in 2024. 🎊

More new shop stuff! Mandolorian and baby Grogu in his pram 💜 $20 each + shipping. This is the way, right?

So I wanted to make an embroidered Caduceus dice bag to have with my embroidered Mollymauk bag! Embroidering the pink lichen was fun but also takes a looong time. Both are available on etsy!  

Mollymauk: https://www.etsy.com/listing/761424364/blood-hunters-coat-critical-role

Caduceus: https://www.etsy.com/listing/764864108/dead-people-tea-critical-role-caduceus

If sold out, I’ll periodically renew the listing when more are made!

reblog if you believe fanfics are as valid as books that were published and sold by authors who write as their main careers. I'm trying to prove a point

btw with art when people say 'youve got to do it scared' 'youve got to draw bad' 'youre not gonna know how to do it until you do it' it sounds like bullshit but its true. 90% of art is just getting over the fear that it's not going to be good enough to deserve to be made in the first place. but you're here. you're alive and, with no need to justify that, you're going to make art. it's just part of being alive. you'll spend so long worrying you aren't doing it good enough that you'll look back and realized you didn't live a single day of it.
