A hole that will never really be filled
General | Posted 2 years agoLast night, my grandma passed away. Sleeping, thankfully. It's been about 8 years of gradual weakening and 3-4 of dialysis. It was soon to be her 65th anniversary. They found love at first sight and married almost as soon after, were foster parents, including for my mom, and my nanny was a wonderful nurse. She fought hard every step of the way, even if she probably shouldn't. It's a miracle she survived so long, and I'm thankful for it.
I am a lot better right now. I have barely cried. I beat myself up over not for her own mother when I was a kid, but I seem to be able to easily adjust when I don't actually see it. Seeing the cats die was much worse, especially picking them up. But I am glad, it's easier on me and it lets me remember my nanny how she lived instead. I seem to be good at that anyway though.
Still, the house will feel a bit emptier. It has been often, sure, but now it's permanent.

Weird Animals
General | Posted 2 years agoThe outdoor cats are weird. Yesterday, Eleanor was sitting in the garage watching Butters and Squeakers. Butters kept walking at Squeakers, who looked the other way while standing towards Butters. They both did that weird cat noises like they were angrily talking to each other. My mom got up and Butters jumped at Squeakers and they turned into a fightball and tumbled down the hill right into the little alley, getting completely soaked. They then repeated it all over again in the alley.
And now, I just walked out to put my food back and the giant raccoon was there, he scurried away a little but came right back, looked at me, and just stayed there while I walked past him to put my food back in the freezer. It's so funny. I then opened the door and Minky was there, she followed me here and looks angry, like I'm a traitor for being nice to the raccoon.
I went to check back, nobody there. Then the raccoon zooms at mach-5 passed me outside.

^ for the info
Maybe I'll advertise it like this every so often, not sure. I am unsure about it in general, as I've never taken any before. I tried to make it simple for myself. Note me if you're interested.
Wishing well.

General | Posted 3 years agoWhat do you guys want for Christmas?
General | Posted 3 years agoI’m a curious cat. c<o.oc
Possibility of a YCH and commissions?
General | Posted 3 years agoFor months now, I've been putting off announcing a ych idea I had. It's nsfw, four slots with my sona. I didn't know if anyone would be interested. I also have been thinking about trying commissions again. I also have no idea if anyone would want such a thing. I have felt rather stunted about art lately, not many ideas, can't even write. Guilty that all I can come up with are ms paint doodles and repetitive themes, as much as I really enjoy them. It's scary to ask, but I feel like it'd go nowhere if I didn't, so I'm asking if anyone would be interested, in either, even if just in the future? I'm not real sure about it, idk how it all works. I don't know what to say, really, I just needed to ask. Thank you.
Halloween
General | Posted 3 years agoIf anyone's still around, I hope you had a happy Halloween night..
Sorry I haven't been doing much
General | Posted 3 years agoI hope you all are okay. I haven't done a lot lately, been feeling rather deflated and uninterested, but I do have some things in mind. I hope you all will stick around and be made happy from them.

- Watcher Interaction -
General | Posted 3 years ago[if you don't have time to read right now, please open in a new tab for later; and please READ ALL of it if you want to read and comment]
The past few years, I've been agonizing over the lack of interaction on here, and it seems like it's not just here, nor has it gotten any better. I can't help but think it's a me problem. Probably is somewhat, my art just isn't appealing, but it also seems to be happening to a lot of other people.
Personally, I don't give a shit about the watcher count, so long as the people that do are interested. It would certainly be suspicious if I gained no one in a year but I'd at least be happy that the people that are there love my art and journals and everything. But I don't feel that's the case, at least, I can't see that it is.
Some things I have noticed
1. A lot of you watch several hundred people. The problem here is that that isn't new..but it is the most easily identifiable problem. I've always been against that, because I personally think you shouldn't watch more people than you really want to, but people used to be pretty active even when, so I'm suspicious at pointing the finger to it.
2. I have gained very little in watchers, hemorrhaged some, and many more of those in the list seem to not even be around. But many that are are still active, they just fave every now and then, not me, but they do certainly fave others' art, which is strange, but I'm not sure what the problem is here.
3. With little watcher gain, I've thought maybe there just isn't many new people coming to FA. But the problem is that this phenomenon is also on twitter, which is just fine in terms of user growth, least I'm sure it is. It isn't a lack of people.
I don't hate any of you. If it is a me-problem and that me or my art is unappealing in some way, you're free to say it; I want to hear it. Don't feel like you're forcing me to do anything because you're not, I will not do things I don't want to do. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME "WE SUPPORT YOU, DO WHAT YOU LOVE", because I do that, and I'm not suspicious of any of you. I am just confused and a bit heartbroken, because I love getting interaction, but it seems like less and less and that's it's been nothing but decline for years.

Franken-Survey
General | Posted 4 years agoI didn't want to do just one, or even all of any one, so I combined a bunch.
What is your name?
N/A
Birthday?
16th of September
What was the name your parents wanted for you?
I’m not making it up, but my dad wanted me to be “Magnus Montana.” …My rl name is from a grunge actor.
Do you have nicknames?
Drewzie, Kitten and Drew.
How tall are you?
5’3
What color are your eyes?
Blue-grey-green.
Hair color?
Copper
How many siblings do you have?
A dead one and two half-ones. Not half-dead, just from another mother.
Who did you last text?
My dad.
Pepsi or Coke?
Coke 100x, even though I’m not a big Coke guy. Dr. Pepper is way better, when it’s good, that is.
Is it more common for you to follow your heart or your mind?
I don’t have a heart.
What was the last thing you watched on T.V?
My grandma watches TLC, Game Show Network and Fox News a lot.
Do you know who E.T. is?
He falls in pits.
Do you believe in aliens?
The universe is too big not to.
Do you believe in dying because of lost love?
Not usually.
Have you ever had someone close to you die?
Cats.. and stepdad, granddad and aunt and uncle.
What was his/her name?
Dottie, Spanky and Bubbles for the meows.
How did you know one another?
Telepathy.
Have you ever "Jump shake your booty, Jump, Jump shake your booty"?
Wat? <ono>
What kind of cell phone do you have?
A phone that is rarely used.
What was the last hookup you had?
In a very strange dream.
Last person you hit?
A guy who attacked me.
Did your parents force you to go to church?
My grandma, not my mom. That is, until the organizer attempted to assault me.
Have you ever practiced witchcraft?
Not really, but I have magical thinking a lot. Probably autism.
Do you believe in vampires?
Blood tastes okay, but it won’t make you immortal.
What about ghosts?
Maybe.
Biggest fear?
A bad afterlife.
Name a fact that you think is bullshit.
“Absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
Could you go a day without eating?
I have. Should try again.
Ever been expelled?
Thankfully no. But I almost went to juvie, and have been in detention many times. Thank God my principal was smart enough to try and make room for me and recommend moving to a school with autism support.
What was your worst subject in school?
Math. Science was also hard. After 4th grade both classes were a struggle. I only got through maths because of my weird aptitude for testing in general. Language also sucks; I hate Spanish now. Then you look at history and I get grades so high without trying that the computer has to default to 100.
Who is the happiest person you know?
My dad and grandmas. Also my art history and philosophy teacher from HS. Big Ralph Waldo Emerson kinda guy.
Has anyone ever sang to you?
I’ve always hated “It’s a Wonderful World”. <-n->

What was his/her name?
Dottie, Spanky and Bubbles for the meows.
How did you know one another?
Telepathy.
Have you ever "Jump shake your booty, Jump, Jump shake your booty"?
Wat? <ono>
What kind of cell phone do you have?
A phone that is rarely used.
What was the last hookup you had?
In a very strange dream.
Last person you hit?
A guy who attacked me.
Did your parents force you to go to church?
My grandma, not my mom. That is, until the organizer attempted to assault me.
Have you ever practiced witchcraft?
Not really, but I have magical thinking a lot. Probably autism.

Blood tastes okay, but it won’t make you immortal.

A bad afterlife.
Name a fact that you think is bullshit.
“Absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
Could you go a day without eating?
I have. Should try again.
Ever been expelled?
Thankfully no. But I almost went to juvie, and have been in detention many times. Thank God my principal was smart enough to try and make room for me and recommend moving to a school with autism support.
What was your worst subject in school?
Math. Science was also hard. After 4th grade both classes were a struggle. I only got through maths because of my weird aptitude for testing in general. Language also sucks; I hate Spanish now. Then you look at history and I get grades so high without trying that the computer has to default to 100.

My dad and grandmas. Also my art history and philosophy teacher from HS. Big Ralph Waldo Emerson kinda guy.

I’ve always hated “It’s a Wonderful World”. <-n->

Never have. I’d imagine it’s scary.

General | Posted 4 years agoOn Christmas eve, I went with my grandpa to Midlothian, a 40+ minute drive away, to deliver a Christmas present. I've said before how I appreciate the beauty of suburbia, and this is one of the few times I've stepped out of that, to the outskirts of the metroplex, just as strange as the inner heart and brain. I'm more familiar with the bones and muscles; this was the skin.
Quite immediately it hit me seeing less and less houses all cooped up together and broken up with strips and roads. More expanses of tall yellow grass. Another curious thing about the landscape was the trees. I rarely see junipers like the ones I was seeing more and more. They looked like a cross between any shrub and a Christmas tree. Some looked like Christmas trees that had been fed a dozen turkeys and McBurgers a day for a month. Less and less deciduous and broadleaves, too. Very few by the time I went through the town part of Midlothian.
In the skin of the metroplex, every portion of cultivated human-made nature becomes isolated. There were suburban-looking patches; a trailer-and-home patch, a walled patch of rows of identical homes that would fit in any suburb. But these were patches, separated by vast tracts of land. Seas of yellow and grey grass, broken up themselves by the sporadic juniper, and some shades of green grass here or there, maybe. Another feature, absent from the wider city, is the industrial portions. The steelmill in particular made me quite happy. Like a castle, it towers over the landscape in its grey-white concrete, tall towers connected by wires that offer some nicely complexity, and smoke strangely coming out the smokestacks but always the same shape. Very picturesque. The more we went, however, crossing the thin railroad upon which the orange train rested just a dozen feet from us, the more junipers we came across, as they began to engulf the landscape.
Country living is strange. These were to be homes nestled within a forest broken up into seas of yellow behind fences, all turned someway to a thin road. The homes were often far away from their mailboxes, the home we were going to completely invisible within a wood. Huge acreages, some wooded, some not. Cows here, goats there. One home was decorated for Christmas. They utilized their closeness to the road to its fullest extent, laying an assortment of characters and lights and scenes at all of the eight or so buildings. A haystack had about eight goats on it. They were cute.
It is certainly a break from the even and cozily spaced concretes and homes of the suburban plane. The evenness here was spaced out drastically, individualized and stark. I love all the forms of human habitation. There's a beauty to each. But I wish I could see all the types more easily.
I hope you all had a merry, merry Christmas. 83
