WEW, i have a tumblr now
Posted a year agoi decided to try out tumblr as suggested by
rubbergender and all seems good so far! i already got like 23 notes from my first post (the walmart one) which seems pretty good to me idk. its more than what i get on FA and DA. again i wont be abandoning these sites in any way. this is just another place to follow me if you want
the most annoying part of getting a new social media though is just getting caught up with posting my older art and stuff. i dunno, is that something most artists do? like one day i post something i made yesterday, then the next i post some crappy sketch from 3 to 5 years ago with CIRCLE TOOL eyes. i dunno, makes the gallery seem a little messy or consistent
thats why i dont really post a lot of art i made from 2020-2022 when i basically gave up on social media here even though i know there is some stuff that i wanna post. i dont know, maybe i can put those in scraps?
anyway that is if i wanna post my old art on tumblr at all, which maybe i wouldnt, but i do wanna post some stuff i made in the past like year at least. we will see what i do i guess
here is a link to my tumblr page. whenever i get a new social media anywhere its probably gonna be 'SheepishWoolly' by the way. i wish i could change my FA username but whatever, at least i didnt choose SheepishMagpie

where else to post?
Posted a year agoim perfectly content to posting on FA and DA as long as i can (by the way FA isnt going anywhere any time soon, it shutting down due to the owner passing away is a hoax), but for a long, long time i felt like i should be posting my stuff to other websites in edition to those. where would my art be appropriate?
i would try using twitter again but i just never know how to find any sort of audience there, same with instagram or any other site that has virtually no tagging system. if you wanna recommend a site like that, how would you recommend i build an audience? i mean i kind of know how to get an audience on twitter, like part of it at least is engaging with other peoples tweets and stuff but idk im kind of too shy of a person to do that in any sort of meaningful way. what do you guys think?

Updated Stuff Also Identity Issues
Posted 2 years agoover the last few weeks (but mostly the last few days) ive basically been updating my profile since a lot of the contacts and the profile info was just outdated. plus i mostly just post object show stuff here now, but i dont know if thats how i truly want to use this profile now. what if its just a phase like a lot of my other obsessions were when i was younger?
ive always had issues with what i want to be 'known' as, even if its something as simple as a name. ive probably had at least 20 usernames over my time across social media (so 8 years, but mostly in the past 4 or 5 years). nearly every name ive chosen ive ended up thinking was cringy later or just doesnt fit me anymore. thats why like all of my different social medias have completely different names and why i have like six different 'versions' of scooter. i mean, is this a problem that most people have at some point? i have a feeling not, or at least its something youre supposed to quickly grow out of, since many websites dont even let you change your username
and this is just a NAME. personality, style, legacy, thats a whole nother can of worms. i mean, ill keep posting what ive been posting, so dont expect anything different in terms of content for now
i also just wanted to get that journal from 2019 off my front page

Dedicating to Writing
Posted 6 years ago It's around 3 A.M. where I live (the PST timezone) and instead of dedicating the whole day to some Microsoft Paint bits like I usually do, I want to start pursuing a writing career. I've have a few ideas throughout the past few months actually. I just haven't gotten around to actually committing myself to a full project.
It's technically one day before my birthday, June 18th. I'm going to make a small challenge for myself: I want to make a rough draft of my story before I turn the age of fifteen. I think it's cool to look at a piece of writing and say, "I've written this when I was only fourteen years old." Even if it's not perfect, it doesn't need to be. It is going to be a rough draft after all. I have all of the time in the world to edit and change my story.
Speaking of that, I am aware of my small idiosyncrasy which is my fixation towards constantly editing my own crafts, whether it's my artworks, music, or other files or media. I do set a cutoff line for these, comparatively a week at most and any further do I just consider that publishing a performance of my past. For something like an entire story, I feel like there will be an ongoing onslaught of edits, whether I find a grammar mistake, simply wanted to word something differently, or even an inconsistency that I notice.
I've mentioned that my story will revolve around Frainty, and that remains true. My original idea was mostly setting the plots around school situations. Since the summer for most schools, it wouldn't make sense especially to debut with school circumstances. I'll set off my ideas for September or maybe even August. I still have ideas that aren't school-oriented though, so there's still no worries in that category.
I've just thought of a mini-exercise of sorts: I'm going to state a one-sentenced thought, and I will try to stretch it to be as specific and attention-maintaining as I can. It's very easy to make this excessively verbose, so I'll try to keep it to a moderate level. There's nothing that I can say that would be necessarily wrong; in my descriptive paragraph, I may add unstated details, actions, or dialogue. As long as I stay true to the initial sentence, it's justifiable. It's almost like a reverse summary.
The sentence: "After sluggishly crawling out of bed, I grab some cereal and prepare for school."
I gradually awaken to see my guardian at the foot of the bed. She speaks in a calm voice, "Your alarm clock seems broken," she says, slowly rising up to stand. "Either that or your consciousness is broken."
Before I was able to give a reply, she closes the door in a belligerent fashion. I had presumed she had been irritated by having to wake me up herself, but I dismissed it quickly.
Another lethargic morning calls for a quick bowl of cereal. After the first few bites, I notice the chime of the clock in from the other room. I lean to the left to check the time and I noticed I only had ten minutes to arrange. Usually the morning is a routine that had never acclimated over time, but certainly this wake-up call had altered my mood at that moment.
Friskily slipping on my shoes, grabbing my notebooks, and rearranging them inside of my backpack, I make a dash outside to see the school bus hadn't even arrived yet. I took the few extra minutes to pack in rather extra, intermediate supplies—such as a ruler and a protractor—since I thought I couldn't have gone wrong with just a few additional equipment. The school bus finally arrives, and I lastly step foot into the start of a new beginning.
