Other Sites and CFz and Core Element!
Posted 6 months agoDespite this account's join date, I've been on here since 2008. So this downtime has been weirdly nostalgic for me, just like Augustgate.
Anyway, I do have a new art to share when we get to post again, until then the best place to see my fresh art and general ramblings is BlueSky

And in other news: CONFUZZLED. It is this month. Hell Yeah.
I will be dealing in the den again this year, HOWEVER: I am only dealing on the Monday. Not my choice I would have preferred either the full con or Sat/Sun, but hey at least I am in there!
There will be: Prints, pins, acrylic keychains, mouse mats, stickers, button badges, original canvas paintings and a few other things! What are they? Come see!
I'm also going to Core Element, not dealing just there to rave. I might open up some UV raver con badges before the festival? We shall see.

Posted a year agoNow I'm not planning on packing up and leaving, FA has its problems but I think FA really is the best place to put NSFW/Kink art without worry of it being randomly struck down because porn hurts Visa's feelings or whatever. But after the recent hacking I figured it best to feature some other places I live on the internet if you want to make sure you'll see art.
Now, almost all of these are more personal pages than they are art specific. But art gets posted to every site.
TWITTER - @DIAMANTEFANGS
I am not calling it x and I am not getting out of my chair there. This is probably the most used and I tend to share more small doodles there than other places.
MASTODON - @DIAMANTEFANGS@MEOW.SOCIAL
Less used but if you're just after my art that's your best choice. Less likely to share smaller doodles there but everything I'd upload here I'd upload there.
TUMBLR - @DIAMANTEFANGS
This one is much more of a scrapbook of stuff I think is cool, funny or cute. Main art also goes there.
I do have a few other links in my linktree but they're not nearly as used, that may change and that link will be updated with links if I decide to use anything newDIAMANTEFANGS @ CFz DEALERS DEN 2024

Posted 2 years agoI have one now
Here it is
https://t.me/DIAMANTEFANGSART GOOD NEWS 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO
Posted 3 years agoSo. Remember back in May, I was super excited about a new job?
It was going great, until I got covid again.
As you can imagine, being in a pharmacy and having covid is Dangerous. I didn't want to kill any elderly patients and we had a lot of them. But because I took a chunk of time off to recover during my probation period, I was let go very unceremoniously. I don't think the area manager wanted me there anyway, she seemed to take a lot of joy watching me cry about it after saying "do you need a moment".
I was devastated. I was absolutely heartbroken and humiliated.
I took some time to mentally recover, then started looking for jobs again. I knew I didn't want to go back to working in a supermarket, I'll never do that again. So it was a hunt for dispensing jobs again. I got an interview earlier this month but didn't get the job, I understood why. Pharmacies during winter holidays are extremely busy, they needed someone with more experience and who didn't have to be trained to use their Rx software.
But this morning, I got a call from that pharmacy saying "we want to offer you a job, it's the exact same as the position you applied for". So whoever the original choice was must have either been a bad fit or generally fell through.
I accepted it Immediately, now just waiting on some calls from their HR to secure some details.
I am beyond happy, I was so broken down over what happened. It felt like the escape I was begging for got ripped away from me. I fell in love with that job, I felt like I was really helping people and learning new skills. I knew that even if I did decide to jump ship from that branch, it would be still for pharmacy work I'd go into afterwards.
It's more hours and better pay too (not A Lot but more than minimum which is what the old place was paying). It's Exactly what I needGOOD NEWS [and CFz meme]
Posted 3 years agoIf you've been following me around for a while, you will know that I fucking Hated my job. Customers will always be Customers but one of the main issues I had was with management. The store manager and his gaggle of favourites made life as much of a hell for me as possible. The whole wage issue that started in 2019 was his doing and I'm still doing everything I can to fix that. I certainly would have had the two personality disorders regardless, but he sped up the official diagnosis.
So imagine how happy I am to have a new job! I'm going to be working in pharmacy!
It is a shame that it's only now I'm getting out of there when the team is now actually great to work with and I plan on staying for about 1-2 months extra to help fix the problem he caused forever, but I'm so excited. I start on the 13th next month!
And of course, I will also be at CFz this week! I'm so excited for that, I love doing those silly journal memes. So here we go:
What hotel are you staying at?
Hilton!
Arrival/Departure
Friday/Tuesday. I did want to stay longer but it's not been in my budget
Transportation?
Train! And a bus from my end of the city to the train station but sssh that don't count
Are you sharing a room with someone?
I will be sharing with HydroCheetah :3
Who do you hang out with?
Whoever I recognize and won't massively impose on lmao
Relationship Status:
I do have a partner ( HydroCheetah ) but we're both open, I'm poly and always down for casual fun. I at least have to know you a little bit though lmao.
What is your gender?
None with left fem
How old are you?
26, it's so weird to think the last time I went I was 23
How tall are you?
Trip Hazard (5ft)

Debatable but I have fun
Do you do trades?
Buy me a Burger King or a cocktail I'll draw u a thing

Do you drink?
Ye but I only let myself get Drunk Once at the con. Anything else I'm either sober or just a touch tipsy
Can I buy you a drink?
Yes but uh can I watch u buy it. I've had shitty experiences in the past so I get paranoid about that stuff
Do you smoke?
Smoke and vape, find me outside fucking up my lungs
Are you attending any panels?
If any catch my interest, otherwise I'll be vibing where ever the mood takes me
Stage or public performance?
I will be at karaoke. This is your warning
Rules of engagement (physical contact)?
Most of the time it's all good, as long as you're clean and fresh. If I say no it's absolutely not personal, I'm probably just feeling weird
How can I find you?
Tiny, pink and a weird Scottish/American/Manc accent
Can I talk to you?
Of course !!! I am actually way more social in the flesh than I am online
Can I give you lots of money?
I mean it's ur money u do what u want with it lmao
Can I give you stuff?
Burger King and Marlboros

Hug, yes. Snuggle? Prooooobably not especially if I'm not in suit.
Can I come to dinner with you?
No I hate eating in front of people lmao
Can I hang out with you?
Sure why not
What's your goal for the con this year?
Have a blast, celebrating first con post-pandemic, celebrate new job, give Hydro lots of kissies2021: The Review
Posted 4 years agoI'm taking this tradition of mine to this account too.
This one has been... Strange. I'd say that there's a very clear split. Half of the year was consistently fine and the other half blew.
I'll start off with some news regarding my mental health, because I don't consider the diagnosis either good or bad. I think it's helpful, but I have no strong feelings about it.
I was recently diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. I've always sort of suspected a personality disorder, but in recent years I thought it would have been paranoid. The stigma of the illness will and does suck, but I've been thinking of it like a pest infestation. You gotta know what kind of pest you're dealing with to set the correct traps, no good putting down anti-slug powder if you have a rat problem.
This came after taking a two month sick leave from work because I was just Suffering. A lot of old habits became the norm again. However, through some wonderful fuck up this meant that I now owed work 70+ hours. Which they just snatched from two months of pay. One month I got paid absolutely nothing and had to survive on borrowed money. But I recently managed to get that sorted in a round about way, but in the end I won and that's all that matters. But it's for sure had a massive impact on my health and my art.
In much more recent news, I currently have covid. Now, I'm not out there maskless and licking door handles. I've worn masks consistently since April 2020 and am doubled vaxxed. But I deal with a lot of anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers at work so... it's more surprising I didn't catch it earlier. Unfortunately, it meant that I have been spending the holidays on my own. It wasn't too bad to spend Christmas by myself but there were certainly people and things I missed. Like seeing Hydro, my cats, my mum, our Traditional Christmas Breakfast and annual Cards Against Humanity game. But if I pass this on to someone it could kill I wouldn't be able to live with myself.
But there has been a good number of good things this year! I finally built my PC and she's a Monster. I've never had a machine this good and there's so much comfort in knowing that I can replace and fix specific broken things instead of having to buy a whole new machine.
Hydro and I started dating! It's been wonderful, I do often feel bad that I'm not the most... outwardly receptive person when it comes to positive emotions but they understand and I'm so happy to have someone who does understand.
I've gotten into better daily habits, I try and do some exercise everyday and make sure I'm properly dressed the moment I get out of bed. Making better lunches for work instead of just buying garbage on my break.
I've been able to see friends I haven't seen in years (safely) and had a blast with them.
Gotten back into writing and the response I've gotten has been wonderful!
2022. I'm hoping for the best. I've got therapies coming up in the new year to help keep a handle on stuff and process some things that continue to haunt me and I'm ready to face them. I just want to go more with the flow and see what the year brings rather than try and make a solid plan for myself.Do you like pornographic fan fiction

GOFUNDME: Help an NB Keyworker Pay Their Bills
Posted 4 years ago>>> CLICK HERE FOR THE GOFUNDME <<<
For the past year, I have had a lot of money taken out of my pay due to an error on my work's behalf. This error meant that I owed over 100 hours of undertime. I have already worked off 80 of those hours, but when COVID-19 hit the company paused the repayment. Which has dragged the issue out for over a year. I work in a supermarket and have been working from moment one of the pandemic to help other people.
I now owe 20 hours, but this means that my contract is temporarily halved. That means I will barely have enough money to pay my rent, let alone buy food and pay other bills. I'm asking for £500 to help me keep my rent paid and have enough to buy food during the temporary contract reduction. It would mean the world to me for your help and support. I hope to never have to make another gofundme again, even this took a lot of swallowing of pride to set up.

Posted 4 years agoI mean, not technically my first but the last time I had it I was like... two years old.
I know I've mentioned this in Other Places but I might as well share here too. I had surgery yesterday!
The good news is: I do not have tissue lining where it is not meant to be
Bad News is: I hurt a whole bunch
We did confirm that I do have something that I already knew I had, but there was a moment where we thought it had receeded so even the specialist I've been working with went "uh yea honestly I thought it had receeded as well so it was a surprise for me too".
Some Fun™ moments from yesterday:
- The nurse in charge of giving me the anaesthesia got Very frustrated at not being able to find the veins in my hand, eventually just stabbed and boy did I bleed
- I remember coming around after surgery, only because I suddenly got very aware of the breathing tube in my throat. I think I was choking on it a little, I was beginning to throw my head to the side. I have strong memories of just repeatedly swearing. I opened my eyes to about three nurses around me, one taking out the tube. I managed to thank them for taking it out through gasps. I'm glad to know that my first response even coming out of anaesthesia is to be polite.
- When I became more aware, I said "I'm sorry for all the swearing" but APPARENTLY I hadn't said a thing? So we think I dreamt it
- I got given a lot of toast to eat afterwards which was great because I was starving, but oh my God that's the worst food to eat when your throat is bone dry. My throat is still killing me but hey ho
Other than being slow and sore, I'm feeling good! My brain is where it needs to be I'm just feeling impatient with my body. I like to have daily walks so this is kinda frustrating to be bound.
And of course a big thank you to HydroCheetah for picking me up and looking after me for a while. I really appreciate it!REBOOT
Posted 4 years agoHello, I am the artist formerly known as HollehMonstah.
In the past few months, perhaps even years, I've felt a disconnect to my online presence. I noticed that in the last 6 or so months it's had an affect on my art. I figured that it was finally time to try something new.
As of typing, there is no plan. I will eventually make a journal entry on my original account and I thank everyone who will follow me here, I was admittedly rather scared of leaving a name I've held very close to my heart for years.
I hope I can continue to provide whatever it is you have been enjoying from me, now with a fresh new handle.
FA+
