November Monthly 2024

 I ALMOST forgot it was the last day of the month, again. I really have been too caught up in my own thoughts.

Welcome to November's monthly post, everyone. This has been probably one of the most turbulent months of the year by far.

It shouldn't be too long, so I'll get straight to the best parts. I am fully booked for this spring semester and prepared with financial aid and all that good crap. I am a little nervous it might be a big workload but if I'm not working (which I want to be by that point, god strike me down if I'm not) it should be fine either way. Other than that, however, I haven't made huge strides in all the things I need/should be doing, such as work, dental, physical, mental, driver's license, etc.. Dental is sort of a lost cause at this point though, so I'm not wholly worried about that - but I really need to start pushing myself to actually attend interviews, meetings, stuff like that to start working so I can get money in my account.

I have been focused on a hyperfixation this entire month - Infinity Train. I mentioned it in the last (monthly) post, but I was definitely not as fixated as I am now. I am more so fixated on Book 4's main cast of passengers, Ryan Akagi and Min-Gi Park. In fact, I wager a lot of fans mostly only like Infinity Train for those two, as superfluous as that sounds. They take up a lot of my waking thoughts, alongside my second hyperfixation Transformice. I'm not explaining it, just look it up if you really care that much. But mixing these two make it really interesting for some aspects, but I like expanding their relationship as well. Call it my 80's JohnDave, I suppose.

Oh, and I got a new computer, I guess. :P

Speaking of silly Canadians, but in a much less light-hearted tone - the election. Let's be real, it's been weighing heavily on our minds ever since the results. I mention Canada because my family wants to move there as imminently as possible to avoid our very rights being stripped away within the next upcoming years. I feel really bittersweet and conflicted about this proposition, because Canada sounds awesome and it aligns with my current hyperfixation, as we just discussed. But I will leave all my friends behind, perhaps permanently. I don't want to face the consequences 80+ million Americans chose for themselves just because I happen to live here. I want to live. I want to be myself without hiding, get the healthcare I deserve, and live autonomously without an old, cishet white man speaking for me or others.

Enough about talking about the shitty stuff, though. If we do move there, it will be exciting and a new but frightening opportunity for me and my academic career. 

Monthly favorite song:

Brittle Bones Nicky 3 - Rare Americans

Honorable mentions:

Puppets - Mike's Dead, Witchcraft - Pendulum

Good song.

Unfortunately, I've completely run out of creative motivation nor inspiration, so my drawings are VERY few and far between. Sorry about that.

Bunnytier x Crowtier JohnDave. Perfection.

Good ol' Trainstuck. Hopefully I'll have motivation to finish the story some other time.

Second concept.

Transformice x Infinity Train (minus my previous top left mouse). This actually made the fanart spotlight for Transformice itself, yay! I am super proud of this one, plus Mouse- Ryan and Min look sooo cute.

Third concept.

(11/28)

Really really really like this one. Good Rymin content right here. But it's the last drawing of the month. So sparse, probably for the whole year, but I feel it's fair since I spent almost all of last month doing a drawing every single day. I deserve a long break.

Thanks for reading like always, y'all.
