Basically can be summed up with this: WHAT THE EVERLOVING FUCK.

That's it.

I've been writing these past two days and it's been like pulling teeth. Shit, I didn't remember it being so damn difficult. I'm not sure all this emotional see-saw is making any sense and now I 'm not sure how to get out of it. In brief: I don't know what I'm doing anymore.

Today I've commented on a picture on Facebook asking the artist how he felt about concrit. He has replied to me: "what concrit?" Well, WHAT CONCRIT DO YOU THINK?!

I'm just so used to fandom courtesy and people understanding automatically what I mean when I offer concrit that I'm sort of flabbergasted.

I'm so fucking furious right now, and it's for a stupid argument through the Internet with a stupid moron I don't even know. Damn Facebook. It's official I'm fucking 5 again, I've totally regressed. I know not all men are the same, I pride myself in being aware of that fact and I hate how this is going to sound because, actually, I tend to get ( Read more... )

So, here's this year's i_reverse_bang entry. I was lucky enough to get two stories written for my pic by two amazing authors, immoral_crow and SamanthaStephens, you can find them here and here! In spite of the sketchy style, I hope you find the pic intriguing enough to want to read them both.

In spite of its awful meaning, the word "bigot" sort of cracks me up because in Spanish "bigote" means "moustache".

(Also, the English word for "avocado" comes from the Spanish earlier form of "abogado", which means "lawyer". In Spanish, the name of the fruit is "aguacate", which comes from the Náhuatl word for "testicle".)

Am I doing any of the ( Read more... )

I'm not a particularly normal, perfectly adapted individual. Like most people in fandom, I'm quite the introvert. I'm painfully aware of these so-called shortcomings (you could argue they are just personality traits, but as they are not exactly encouraged by our society and they make interaction especially difficult in most situations, I don't look ( Read more... )

Which is unfortunate, but there's not much I can do about it. The thing is that, with the crumbling of all my social networks at the same time (aah, the joys of adult life!), I've been forced to make an effort to reach out to at least achieve a minimum of interaction with other human beings. Being the socially awkward and solitary person that I am ( Read more... )

Human beings are naturally creative. Forget this shit about "ooh, this person is so talented (unlike me)" or "this person is an artist (unlike me)". Some people have cultivated their skills. Some people have not or have cultivated another set of skills. But everybody has the spark, everybody is a genius. Don't let a ridiculous, external standard of ( Read more... )

Actually I'm in a horrible mood today for unrelated things (unrelated to what? Just unrelated, in general) and I was browsing through an artist's Tumblr and got the powerful itch to draw something myself. Fanart, because that's what I enjoy drawing the most. And then I thought that LJ is dead and realized: "what for?", or rather "for whom, if ( Read more... )
