Hello everyone. We’ve all blinked and now we are nearing the end of May. Some of us played with the Domaystic challenge. I’m surprised how much I’ve drawn for it. 20 prompts done out of 31. Though for some days I certainly drew more than one panel, so call that very evened out?

I hope the original errors that was making it hard for people to fediverse is settling down some. Love to be corrected if wrong, but this is the only fanfic place that has any sign of life in any fediverse I’ve seen! Is there anything that may help others feel more like chatting on here or is it largely just the tech issues and the very small/quiet crowd?

Goodness, I do miss the activity of reddit. I think it might be one of the reasons why I’m pining for interactions in the fandom of my latest hyperfixation when I usually am able to sit back and pretend it doesn’t exist. I was able to get my fandom community needs in a slightly more abstracted way.

I am not in the House of the Dragons fandom so it's all new/news to me. Don't know if there is anyone here who is who wants to talk about their experience with it within or outside of AO3?

May 2024 Begins! (kbin.social)

Despite the latest issues of life, a oneshot I started working on last week is nearly at 5k words. I just. I can't even. My brain usually struggles just to do 1k words in that frame. How.

Also now drawing things for Domaystic. That is less wild to me because. Well. Drawing has always been easier than words.

One day I'll get back to my main comic but not going to fight my brain on this. Riding this hyperfixation high for however long it will let me.

Finished that shipping week event with 2 late pieces but getting 5/7 prompts (with 2 of them being written onehots) is honestly way more than I expected of myself. Especially since my usual pace of finishing a 1k word oneshot is 3 months. This likely means said texts are a big mess but maybe people will be distracted enough by my doodles for the event? lol

Hoping to collab with a friend for Domaystic. As in will do some doodles to compliment their awesome writing.

All of this and haven't done a thing for my comic's anniversary. Well, not a complete lie. I have been working on the pages for this month. I just haven't gotten enough done to be able to post them. And as we know readers to be, working on something isn't the same as actually being done. But hey, still have some days left of this month!

This little place has gotten very quiet but hope everyone is ok. Please stay safe.

I won't have kids. I absolutely have taught other people's kids though.

If anyone has doubts that their idea is too niché to be read, my Squirrel Stapler/Slay the Princess oneshot has gotten 40 hits since I uploaded it some 20ish hours ago.

I cannot remember who introduced the Finished What You Started here, but that oneshot is my contribution to the event! I have so many other WIPs. I dared think I was going to finish a Pokémon piece or even a Sakuna: Rice&Ruin one I've had since last year. But nooooo (I say despite the fact we still have time left)

Also got to contribute to a week event! No way am I going to fulfill the whole week of prompts but it was so nice to find something I could play and contribute to.

Hope everyone is holding up. Please be safe!

In some bizarre brain melt while in one hyperfocused fandom I finally strayed into a couple of WIPs that have been ignored for a time. Here's to hoping maybe I can have something to show for the Finish What You Started Challenge?

One is a f/f Sakuna: Rice and Ruin but the f/f is too realistic because it barely gets addressed (hopefully I'll be able to pull it more forward in edits?) but to be fair the focus is largely on these two idiots better understanding each other (that's the hottest thing ever right?).

And the other is a crack crossover involving staples and rodents. The little I did write before was honestly just for a joke to annoy friends but now my mind has a better idea on how to expand it.

Roundup March 2024 (kbin.social)

Learning to draw new characters in both their original style and trying to decide how to translate them into whatever the heck mine is.

Been also drawing a bunch of comics that at best 2 other people will ever see. Should be preparing for my 5th anniversary for my main comic as some gracious readers have given me questions to play with for the QnA but brain isn't quite ready to return to that yet.

Hope everyone has had something nice happen to them this month and has something to look forward to the next~

I've successfully finished all the pages for my latest PMD oneshot! It's nice to have something all finished and queued to post so I no longer have to think about it. (also funny that I got it done before that event LeGaosaure had shared last week. will need to find something else to fit into that instead!)

I'm also starting to fall hard into the Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss stuff too. Been teaching myself how to draw the characters and wishing I could share some online because I'm super pleased with how they are coming but since this is a new fandom that exploded it means those who love/hate it are out in full force. I'm not in the mood to have to navigate around fans who ignore basic research and I'm not in the mood to deal with haters who can't do basic research.

Which my brain should find ironic. I'm in other fandoms where the blind love/hate is equally insane. But. But in general even people who hate Nintendo's very existence do not accuse Nintendo fans of being pro-slavery despite Nintendo legally gifting themselves indentured servitude in freaking 2020s (for those who do not know, look up the Gary Bowser case).

Because most people have not heard about that. And this is kind of my point. Men getting away with literal slavery in public doesn't invoke massive online screaming. However a bi hispanic woman who creates a successful franchise with characters of so many minorities and hires minority creators to help make it -doesn't have a squeaky clean background- means no one can be normal about this.

And just. VivziePop has things she should be accountable for. But how can accountability be asked for when the people who were actually hurt are downed out by complete lies?

I don't want this post to be entirely negative. I don't like that most of my posts have been that as of late. But not sure were to go with this. Hazbin stuff has been making me laugh and smile harder than I have in a very long time. I'm a sucker for drama-queen characters so flawed its a miracle they haven't died via choking on their own saliva.

On the bright side, this magazine has enough activity that just making a new thread doesn't jump it to the front on hot/top. On the other, need to remember to click on new to make sure I don't miss Roundups!

On a more "capitalists ruin more things" tumblr is going to join the other big name sites and sell their user's art and images to their choice of AI. Technically not officially announced and it's rumours. But given Tumblr's record of horrible choices I would not be surprised. Further reminder for me to start fixing up my Pillowfort and such lol aaaaa

I'm 3 pages away from finishing my latest comic oneshot. I'm who knows how far away from finishing any pure-text oneshot.

I'm still emotionally shot. Anxiety is amped and it doesn't take much for me to panic. But hey, I'm existing.

Congrats on those microfics! And thank you for sharing the event. That's a nice one to vibe with~ (helped you finish 3 fics and a pattern? Insane!)

Other comments aside, humans have at least 4 different kinds of pelvis shapes (Caldwell–Moloy classification). If you decide to look further into the research, we actually have no idea which pelvises are most common for any sex. Any research done has largely been "which best for woman give birth" and that's it.

We have no data to give a proper average of what should be expected for those assigned male at birth. We have no data for those who are intersex either but worse because even many modern practices do their best to hide everything.

No idea where you live, but to give you a start:

Best luck to you finding your answers.

I've learned there are several kinds of Cinnamoroll Pedometer pets! There are at least 2 clamp-shell ones. One that is just his face and another with him resting on a cupcake. I wondered if anyone here knew more about them?

When you make the bad choice to buy digital pets in a language you don't even have 1st grade knowledge in. ✨

Is there anyone here who has played with the Roco Kingdom virtual pets?

Weekend roundup! What are you writing? Reading? Drawing?

TELL ME.

Sadly aside from saying, "It made me laugh" or "oooh that's a good question to answer" I couldn't be able to properly describe what instinctively grabs me.

[-] borzoiteeth@kbin.social 3 points 9 months ago

There are 4 entries on AO3. One of them I gave a kudo lol

Congrats on finding your tablet! Hope the stylus isn't too far away. Things are finally calming down a bit for me to properly be drawing and working on stories again. Not to suggest I'm completely clear, but hey one panel at a time~

Someone binged through my Dino Run fanfics and left comments. But to completely blow me away was told if they could shake off their latest hyperfixation in a different fandom they would like to write something for Dino Run! Will I finally no longer be the only fanfic writer for this fandom? AaaaaAa

Was reminded that Too Many Cooks is 9 years old so I looked up to see what kind of fanfic existed. Otherwise will just be reading updates to what I'm already subbed/bookmarked to.

I 100% believe it's because the terfs feel super empowered right now because they have a popular and rich children's author on their side. Sometimes it doesn't matter how small the group is when they have all the money to tweak the laws as they see fit.

Since very few people are educated in seeing that, it continues this terrible cycle of fear and assumption.

[-] borzoiteeth@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Pillowfort and Dreamwidth come to mind. Pillowfort designed to be based on original Tumblr. Dreamwidth based on LiveJournal.

Never heard of this one and it's title and your summary has grabbed me. Will check it out~

It's a tie between garlic, basil, lemon, rice and pork.

My hope is once a community has built up enough that I can dump the mod powers on someone else.
