...people running away from their problems. I see this happening far too often. And seriously, I can't watch this anymore. (Sorry, little incoming rant.)
Does anyone of you know this phenomenon? People lamenting their problems and mistakes they've made, whining about people they believe to have pissed off? But instead of fixing those problems, instead of putting in real effort to change what bothers them and to avoid said mistakes in the future, they run. They stop communicating, go at a distance, lock themselves away and even change accounts only to drown in self-pity.
But what do we have the ability to communicate for? Why is intelligence given to us, when all we do is solve our problems in the stupidest, most immature manner, effectively making them worse?
This is just frustrating. Especially if it involves me. I can tell you, it's really difficult to piss me off. I will remain friendly and polite most of the time, but life has taught me to be honest with the people, as this is for the best of both sides. I know many who think alike. If something's wrong, I will tell you. If something's wrong, so tell me. We can always talk and work this out. In fact, I'd rather help people overcome their problems than comdemn them for what they do wrong.
Sure, there are things that annoy me. But I can promise you that it is veeery unlike for me to be annoyed enough to not have the will to fix this and make a change. Start anew. But I can't help a person who doesn't want to be helped.
Running and not giving me the chance to help/say my part if you BELIEVE I'm pissed is a sure-fire way to make me mad.
It may sound harsh, but in my opinion, someone who doesn't really try to deal with their problems and overcome them has no right to lament them. Even if you close your eyes when facing the truth, it won't change or go away. Self-pity disgusts me. Stop doing this. This path of least resistance will only lead into a long downward spiral.
Instead, stand your ground and be able to look at yourself in a mirror again. There are people with far worse problems out there, and they give their best. They fight, they never give up, and in the end, they are always the winners in my eyes.
(Rant over. I'm not the type to easily rant, but this HAD to be said.) ...Have a nice day.

I'm not dead, I swear :/
Here I am, noticing that I haven't drawn and uploaded any pictures for three years now...my last posts being story excerpts and a journal, both pretty outdated by now as well. Does anyone even read these journals anymore? I admittedly can't say I do, ever since the changes in the layout of DA have made it one hell of an inconvenience - they don't appear on the profile page anymore, they don't appear on the same page with new deviations from artists/groups you're watching anymore and have to be clicked separately...I usually forget this category exists at all. Neither have I been following the influx of art, simply for the reason that a) I'm not dropping by very often these days, and b) whoever set up the new design fucked up royally, and everything is so painfully slow that I'd be dying of old age before I manage to browse through everything. I stand by what I said before: This hasn't been feeling like DA anymore for a long time, and nobody is bothering to fix it. Everything has become
What is it with those bots?
I don't know what's going on now, but we seem to have a pandemic here on DA too. Lots of bots have started liking my comments in the last two weeks, and it's all empty profiles that link all to the same fishy site, which I assume is a dating platform (which is ironic in itself). Why are they continuously running rampant? It seems like I'm not the only one having this problem too. To be honest, it irks me on a level beyond the fact that it's spam.
If I get likes, comments, faves and such, I want them to be from a real person who appreciates something I said or made. If it's just a bot meant to lure me to some sort of fishy link, or whatever
Why is the new DA so unbearably ugly? -.-'
*Short rant*
Okay, I haven't shown up here for quite a while since nothing much is going on and it already felt to me like DA was slowly dying. I haven't drawn or uploaded drawings since what, October of 2018? That is a completely different story, but what I'm saying is that I'm not particularly motivated anymore either when I look at this new design (although I did want to at least occasionally draw again tbh). Can't find shit on there. It's cluttered, unorganized and just rubs me the wrong way. And most people I've talked to seem to agree on that. Can't believe they'll force this upon us instead of giving us the choice between the new and t
Update + Story Theory Special Tips
How's it going, folks? I know, same old story, sorry for my inactivity. I haven't really drawn anything since last October, and even currently, the stress as well as a lot of preparation to branch out into multiple new jobs are driving me a little too nuts to even consider it again.
But there's good news too, namely that I will likely soon offer new services, from reopening sketch commissions over writing commissions to individual one-on-one coaching for anything around your stories, to bring them to life. More to that when time is near, but I'd appreciate it if you'd tell me if you're interested, and in which of those specifically.
Now, eno
