help the hockey boys are calling one another breedable again
Okay hi guys I actually do not know how to start this post. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
This is the first time in a long time I have posted my art to anywhere. Pls do not bully me I will cry. Also I would like to note that I drew this on my art tablet and the colours THERE are VERY DIFFERENT than the ones that show up on my laptop. Gotta love colour calibration amirite.
Anyways! Let me introduce you to
Virginia "Gin" Abernathy.
She is (one of) my Call of Duty MWI-III oc(s). I finished this ref sheet before she had a last name and have not had time to change it (sigh). One day.
Anyways! She is super awesome and cool and was made in tandem with @oh-sturg-art's character Seven :). Gin is actually her handler :3!!!!
Erm. I cannot think of anything else to say. Enjoy? :3
- Heat lightning on a drive home from work. No rain, just lightning
- Beautiful rainstorms. They wash out the pollen for like a day. Not long, but makes me feel more tolerable
- Tornadoes? Crazy shit. There was a day the sky turned black in the afternoon
- The skid marks on the country road where someone took a joyride. Swerving, even did donuts. Appeared while I was gone, probably in the middle of the night. Doesn’t look like anyone got hurt
- The therapy llamas down the road had babies!!
- The buds of crops sticking through the farm fields
- The other day my family got a box full of like 40+ ears of sweet corn from a stranger. This isn’t even the first time this has happened. We had to get rid of (give away) so much corn
- Whirlpools in flooded creeks
- Air quality alerts. The place I used to live was so consistently smoggy that changes in the air quality were never really announced, nor a big deal
- People riding bikes! Walking dogs! Enjoying the day
- So remember the bridge I mentioned before where the war protestors were? Anyways sometimes there are also Trump supporters on that bridge, but that’s besides the point. Because TODAY (06/11) I saw an old man dressed in red with a Santa hat on and he was just. Flexing??? Like what??
- Two people using FaceTime and sign language
- Tractors twice the size of semis coming down the road
So I moved from my childhood state a few years ago and I’ve been struggling with adjusting ever since, largely because of the drastic negative change in my social life. But life is beautiful, so I wanted to make a list of things I’ve seen since moving here that I couldn’t get back home! You have to appreciate the little things in life. I’m gonna periodically add more as I see them
- “The Oven Bus” which is just a bus with a brick chimney in it. I wanna know what’s going on in there so badly
- All of the sunsets here are beautiful without fail. Don’t matter what time they happen, even if it’s at 4, it’s beautiful. There’s so many colours in them
- The sign I drive past on the way to work that says “WALTZ IS FOR MURDERING THE UNBORN.” I don’t agree with it but it’s fucking hilarious to see, because it’s in the middle of nowhere
- Related, since we live out in the country now, the pro-life religious bulletins that have the most CGI looking babies on them. Like that baby is not real. Honey
- I almost got into an accident once because there are so many dogs down a 55 MPH road that I just kept looking at the dogs
- The church that has six doors outside on their lawn that say “GOD’S DOORS ARE OPEN TO ALL”
- The church that has a progress flag on its flag post and a BLM flag flying under it. I went there once and it’s full of old people. They were so kind. I want to go back there again
- The kind lady at the Chinese takeout restaurant down the road from us who stayed when the restaurant was empty so I could pick up my order. I wanted my brother to get it but he bailed last minute
- The grocery store down the street that my family has wildly different pronunciations of. It’s within walking distance. I’ve never had that before
- The man today who accidentally bought two tickets for himself. Instead of refunding one, he wanted to give away the other one for free
- The mall Santa I see around Christmas time when he’s on his break. Just walking around. High socks and shorts with a Christmas theme, he’s great
- The little girl yesterday who told me she would get a dog and a fish. When I asked her what she would name the dog, she said “Rainbow Pup”
- The parents who use they/them to refer to me. Even though I personally don’t use those pronouns and don’t like them when they’re used in reference to me, it’s a sign of progress
- The little girl whose parents I sold an annual pass to. I’ve seen her four times. She recognizes me each time and runs to give me a hug
- The toddler who tried to hand me her half-eaten cinnamon-dusted timbit when I asked her for a high five
- The kind people at KwikTrip who never look like they don’t want to be there
- My supervisor who shrieks whenever he walks by me because that’s how I greet people so he’s started greeting me like that as well. He’s an absolute truck of a man who looks like Thor

Dividers by @wateryourgender!! They are very pretty and nice indeed! :D
I hate it when people who don’t take a certain medication/don’t have the same disorder you do try and police how you describe how it feels when you don’t take your medication.
I take a heightened dose of a certain medication for depression. When I forget it even for a day, I notice it. My brain physically feels like jelly and every time I move my head too fast, it feels like I’m going to fall over. I’m aware of the physical space my eyes take up. It’s awful, and that’s just if I forget it in the morning- the rest of my day ends up like that.
I tried to explain it to my mom once, describing it as “I’m experiencing what feels like withdrawal symptoms from my meds because I forgot to take it this morning, it feels terrible lmao.” And then she told me that it couldn’t be that bad, that it wasn’t withdrawal, and that I shouldn’t talk about it that way (at least, that’s what it felt like she told me). Meanwhile I’m sitting there like, I’m sorry, are you taking my medication too? Are you diagnosed and being treated the exact same way I am? No? Then how can you tell what it feels like?
It’s so diminishing to me. I’m trying to talk about the struggle and I’m silenced by the whole “it can’t be that bad” sentence like??
Again, that’s how it felt. That’s probably not what she intended, but now I don’t feel like I can ever talk about it with her again
Something on my mind related to Sonic 3 grossing higher than Mufasa
I think it’s hilarious. Obviously. Disney has to stop making live action movies and adaptations (yes I know it’s technically animation and not live action but there’s not a good word to describe it). I get Mufasa is technically not a remake of anything previous but it’s so annoying to see them prioritizing realism over their roots in cartoons. I just saw a poster for live action Snow White
I have my gripes about the Sonic movie’s lip syncing and expressions but it’s still more endearing than whatever 2019 Lion King did, and probably better than Mufasa. I haven’t seen it but knowing how the last one went, I doubt they improved on the issues with emotion and expressions judging by the trailers
But Mufasa grossing lower isn’t going to teach them anything. It’s Disney, they have the money to ignore it and keep doing whatever they want. It has to be a long, consistent loss for them for them to actually realize that people and their target audience of children aren’t looking for that from Disney
Sonic 3 was great don’t give Disney money <3
I’m just booping people as I see them on my timeline so if you get like 27 boops from me in a weird timespan that’s why,
Hey graves lovers he’s in the mwiii shop if you don’t have him already
Source: @emmsiplier almost killed themself once they noticed
why's it called the mouth of a river if that's where all the water comes out?
would you prefer it to be called the anus instead?
I need to give the context that there were three of them doing this but then one swam away before I could take a picture
This too is yuri
You’re right! Sturgeon yuri, sturi :)
- The work truck that had a toy truck of the same kind strapped on its bed
- My work. I never would’ve gotten a job like this if I stayed in my old state
- The kind woman that greeted me every morning when I got my breakfast. I think she’s working somewhere else now, I hope she’s doing great
- The woman today who lingered as I scanned her and her kids’ tickets and they ran into the aquarium. She paused and asked me how I was doing. She told me “I have a message from my father in heaven. He loves you.” She told me to continue having a blessed day
- The woman in a wheelchair jamming out to a rave behind me
- Related to above, the toddlers on their parents’ shoulders also jamming out to said rave
- The police officer (ACAB) holding an assault rifle admiring the stingrays
- The two mall cops who stared at the stingrays while the rest of them tried to investigate the source of the smoke coming from the bathrooms
- The man at the pizza joint who saw me dancing to his boombox
- The same man who mimicked the poster next to him from an old movie by picking up that boombox and lifting it over his head
