Watched Dirty Filthy Love last night. Hit a little too close to home with the obsessions and spirals. Genuinely inspired me to have a shower for the first time in a week and call a friend over to help clear out my depression nest. Great movie, unsettlingly relatable

How do you respond when you play the fool as a jape and people take it seriously? I once called John Cleese Monty Python, as in Montgomery Python, as a joke. People started correcting me. What do you do? Do you get defensive and say you were joking? Do you go, "yeah, I'm a moron." Help. What do.

I love seeing brushstrokes in people's art. It feels like an insight into their process. You can see the layers and how they build up. The motion of the brush. The final touches after everything else. But I hate brushstrokes in my own art. I will not stand for it. It must be smooth. Only smooth

Actual quote from me today: "We live in a society (cringe) that values romantic relationships far greater than it does platonic relationships. Romance over... platonce? Platonce." *edited because I fucking typed it as "platinonic"

Just saw a limo while I was on the bus. Hate to break it to you, kid, but my vehicle's longer. Get on my level, stooge

One time, my science teacher (lovely man, highly entertaining and kind) was teaching us the difference between mitosis and meiosis. He was writing on the board and said, "Mitosis happens in your body, and meiosis happens..." He then spun around and screamed at the class: "IN YA NUTSACK"

I actually had my first "crush" on the bus. I didn't know what it felt like to be attracted to someone. But media told me that it was your heart racing, short breaths, focus on the person, a squeezing in the chest. Turns out he was playing corners with me and physically pressing me into the window.

Once, my bus had a substitute driver who didn't know the route. He went down some streets that were too narrow, and we could hear the sound of metal scratching for 20-30 seconds. Looking out the window, we could see he was s l o w l y scraping against a car parked on the road. He didn't stop. 1/2

We had a bus driver called Simon, who was a notorious liar. He would chat to any kid standing at the front about all of these crazy stories, like how he flipped a bus, and it caught fire, and he had to rescue the people inside. If it was true, I would have been terrified that he was driving us. 1/2

1) In my brother's day, an arrow was shot through the ceiling of the bus. FROM THE OUTSIDE. The culprit was never caught.

There's a distinct class difference between kids that took the bus to school and those that didn't. I remember being the one to pass on the horror stories to my peers of what happened between home and school. Every day, a new tale to tell. I will tell the best of them here.

I don't like when people talk badly or "cringe" at their past art. It feels like abstract negative self talk. Especially when recording it for content. I always think of the people watching who's art currently looks like that hearing a creator they like shitting all over it. Idk, it feels icky

If ever I think my arts a bit shit, If ever I think I can't get someone's likeness on a page, I come back to this pen and ink portrait of Michael Sheen. It's from my previous sketchbook, too. Haven't done anything better since, apparently. @mchshe.bsky.social

Now, see THIS is why I don't do commissions. It almost always comes out worse than my usual stuff because I'm not passionate about it. Then I look at it and go "this sucks, I want to do something else." So I end up starting a new project that I really like and feeling guilty the whole time. Bleh

For the first time in 23 years I'm celebrating Christmas with a family that I feel comfortable with. That I know won't judge or criticize me. Once you have the freedom to choose your family, the holiday rituals make sense. I WANT to give gifts and share a meal with these people. That is special.

But what if I just... didn't sleep? What if I simply choose not to? What then? What if I stay awake for the next 19 hours? Huh? That's what I thought. If you need me, I'll be dizzy and staring at the wall #actually #ifyouneedme #youdon't

Many theatres are famously haunted. I'm currently staying in a theatre bc I'm working here everyday and it's a few hours outside of where I live, so I have to stay here the night. I haven't seen any ghosts thus far. I think IM the one haunting this place.

Anyone else get those project makeover ads where the woman is just made of mud and filth and you have to clean her up? Babe, stop going after a guy who can't appreciate you for who you are. Live in the swamp. Make potions. Eat children. The witches will love you, mud and all

Imagine asking an artist for a commission and then claiming you made the art because you "wrote the prompt". No one would do that, right? #art #ai #itssosilly

Pulling up to the club with my Garfield Stripes Unisex fit. I pull a lasagne out of the hoodie pocket and eat it in one bite. Everyone steps aside as I stride onto the dance floor and start breaking it down. Everyone cheers and claps. I throw up lasagne onto the dance floor. "I hate mondays"
