@akbaer what book is it?  I have a ton of history recommendations if you want 🙂

The 1900s is interesting because there was just so much that hapoened in those 100 years.  Two world wars, nuclear technology, a depression, the internet…there’s also a lot of lesser known aspects of history within the big events.  I really like to read books ab…[Read more]

@kathleenramm aww thank you!  I can’t even begin to explain how much this means to me 💕

I use colored pencils.  I got a giant set of prismacolors for more than 50% off on blick last year, so that’s what I’ve been using 🙂  if anyone likes art here, then I highly recommend looking for sales on blick lol

I really like character design.  It’s rea…[Read more]

@akbaer words to live by lol.  Although I don’t think I would get smeagol merch for myself lol

I don’t really know that much about medieval history, but that’s really cool that you know a lot about it!  I really like 1900s history 🙂

@akbaer you should!  I want to get some character merch but I’m kind of embarrassed lol

What kind of history do you like?

@devastate-lasting tbh i would be friends with misu too.  A lot of characters get really irritated with him, though 🙁.  I think its because he has a lot of adhd tendencies, but also he’s just kind of odd ngl

Thanks for the recs!  I’ll have to look into them 🙂

@akbaer he’s definitely a very interesting character.  Honestly, I think that Sau…[Read more]

@akbaer I thought your profile picture was funny, but i can see why you would want a different one lol

You should absolutely read it!  It reads like an old mythology or history book, so be warned, but in some aspects i like it better than lotr.  The characters are very flawes, which i really appreciate.  Its also where my tag comes from 🙂

@akbaer ok but that’s seriously impressive lol.  I would want to do a smeagol impression but i share a room and i don’t want my family to hear it lol.  Idk his voice is irritating, the way he talks is irritating, also he’s really nasty.  Don’t get me wrong, he’s a fantastic character, and Andy serkis did a great job with the voice lol.  I tho…[Read more]

@keilah-h thank you!

This is completely unrelated, but do you like snakes?  You like reptiles, right?  I really like snakes but a lot of people don’t 🙁

@lewilliams thank you!  I love color so much 🙂  i wouldn’t be able to soend a lot of time on a graphite drawing

I’ve drawn since I was little, but I didnt start taking seriously until my sop…[Read more]

@lewilliams the extended editions where my first introduction to the movies lol.  Does your husband like them so far?  As far as favorite characters go, I really like Gandalf.  He’s just a really fun and interesting character.  Have you ever read the Silmarillion?  It puts a lot of petspective on lotr, especially on gandalf, elrond, and gala…[Read more]

@anatra23 so this is kind of embarassing, but we “saved” a dove back when i didn’t know much about birds.  We kept in a box and fed it, and we took it to a vet and it turned out to be a fledgling.  It wasn’t actually hurt, it was just still learning how to fly lol

I’ve heard of violet evergarden, but i don’t know that much about it except that i…[Read more]

@Elfwing @akbaer have either of you read the Silmarillion?  If so, whose your favorite Vala?

@akbaer I’m sorry Annika, I don’t like smeagol.  He irritates me lol

I would ask you the same, but judging from your profile picture I think I already know the answer 🙂 what do you like about smeagol?  I’ll admit, he’s a very compelling villain.

@devastate-lasting i completely forgot to answer your first question!  I visited a mining museum that was super cool.  It just looked like a little shop, and the the tour guide just opened a door and led us into a tunnel undeground.  It was super cool!  There were these cool blue mineral deposits on the walls, and he talked about the history beh…[Read more]

@devastate-lasting it’s really good!  I really like it because the main cast is incredibly flawed and obnoxious.  One of the main focuses of the show is character development, which I really like.  Do you have any anime recommendations?  I’m just getting started lol 🙂

Aww thank you!  It makes me so happy when people like to hear about my proj…[Read more]

@Elfwing ebird?  I’m on ebird!  I really love it, but i hate logging all of my observations after a long birding outing lol.  The heats been absolutely brutal recently, so I haven’t been able to get out.  I’ve always wanted to see a great gray, but they’re kind of rare in our area (i live in the pacific northwest :)).  There’s been occasional sigh…[Read more]

@Elfwing aww thank you 💕

It took a lot of work and prayer to get to this point lol

@calidris very good! you’re very good at people! I am terrible and people and can’t use color in my art or I ruin it XD I guess what I mean is good job because it takes talent to put color in art!

@calidris btw I don’t sort socks either and I actually have a pair with owls on them. Well… I just moved out on my own so I won’t be sorting socks no more, hallelujah!! I used to dig through the pile until I had them all matched XD (there’s eight people in my family, hence the reason I could actually dig in the sock pile XD )

@calidris Aw that sucks because it’s a great app. But the lab that supports it is amazing as well and if you sign up (it’s free!) you can submit your sightings and observations as well as access their library and bird pictures and sound recordings and stuff! I use it a lot.

I know right?!!! birds are so unappreciated in forms other than roasted…[Read more]

@kathleenramm thanks!!

the idea for the fantasy one was a griffin keychain pendant and an idea that sprouted from my childhood world I invented when I was about 10.

The inspiration for the sci fi was… um… good question. XD wanting to try my hand in it and the character was based on my personality but obviously not my life lol.

Honestly……[Read more]
