So I'm on welfare essentially and I just found out that I will not be getting paid at all this month because I received a paycheque for $200 in June from my last job that I quit in March. They're also taking all of my employment insurance money. I'm supposed to get $600 a month to live on plus medic...

So I'm actually in a bit of a bind after some unexpected vet bills. I anyone would like to commission some artwork from me, it would be greatly appreciated.

I just dropped $300 at the vet because poor Lilo hurt her wing. Now she's cage bound for 2 weeks.

Lately, I've been trying to participate more in serious discussions. The problem with that is that it creates anxiety because I am constantly second-guessing everything that I write. I'm even doing it now. I constantly proofread to make sure that what I type is right, but I still feel like it doesn'...

I would like to add that I don't necessarily see this as a men vs women issue. I tend to mistrust strangers in general regardless of their gender because I have received abuse from men and women. I've had female friends grope me and play it off as a joke because we're both women. I've also met men w...

I feel I should share some of my own experiences to hopefully give another perspective. I don't often share these experiences, but I feel this is a safe place to do it. I have personally dealt with sexual harassment a few times in my life. I have memories at 14 of grown men hitting on me, in one cas...

I managed to go into work and talk to my managers and explain that I couldn't work anymore. They seemed very understanding and I left on good terms. I kept telling myself that it had to be done for the sake of my health. At first, I felt very relieved. Now I just feel very anxious and depressed.

I did a quick drawing of my two favourite birds

Thanks. It's my first animation in a long time and I'm quite proud of it.

I finally managed to do an animation:
Dog Walk with Nico

I walked out on my job today. I'm not proud of it and I feel bad for doing it but it was the only thing I could bring myself to do. I wrote a resignation letter to give my two weeks notice and tried to go to work as if nothing was wrong. But 2 hours into my shift, I still couldn't bring myself to ha...

It's Nani's birthday today:

So I've never really shared about my intimate life but I feel I need to put it out there as awkward as it is. I've never been a very touchy-feely kind of person. I don't mind cuddling and holding hands but I'm usually not into it. This also extends to sex. It is extremely difficult for me to get int...

I'm not really sure where to begin. It seems like every possible thing in my life is going wrong right now. My grandmother passed away recently and I have to attend the funeral this week. At the same time, my boyfriend had to suddenly leave for Alberta because his grandmother also passed away. So I'...

I'm not sure if it's technically art, but my boyfriend and I recorded an LP, and I did the editing:

Gex Part 1

My birds, Lilo and Nani.

I just don't want to do it anymore. I'm tired of failing and I've lost any enjoyment that I get out of it. I hate anything I make because it's garbage. It just feels like a chore now and I'm fed up.

I give up. I'll never be good enough. I know it and everyone else knows it so it's time to accept it. I will never advance in my chosen career. I should never have spent those 4 years in school. I'll spend the rest of my life working in retail because that's all I can do. I used to love drawing and ...

I'm settled into my new place with my boyfriend and I'm starting a new job this week. Feeling pretty good right now.

I did a thing (linked cuz kinda NSFW):

I'm going to be moving in with my boyfriend in a couple weeks. I'm excited.

So I have a bit of an annoying problem. I've been getting spam in my email inbox from the same person on an almost daily basis. I've been using spam filters to delete all spam messages yet this one person always gets through. I never open the emails, but I know who it is because they always have the...

I've finally dusted this off and started working on it again. Just doing a bit for now because I'm sick.

Very nice. I like it.

Still no job. Being unemployed for this long really sucks. I keep applying for jobs that go nowhere. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. And now I'm in debt and running out of money. I'm even thinking of selling some of my belongings so I can pay rent. I can't seem to do anything right and I just fee...
