Since I bought a new phone, I’ve been trying to design something for the new phone case but I’m in serious artist block. Maybe instead of designing something new I should finish one of my 1000 wips….

Im not naming names, but an app I use a lot recently has been undergoing frequent UI changes and- And everytime I open it my instant reaction is “oh my god, will these shitty ass vibe coders stop fucking with the UI! What is this shit! Why is this like this!”

Going through my DVD’s and pausing - “Wait I own all of the magic knight rayearth dvds?” Looking it up to make sure I’m not insane. “I own all of it. Huh. When did that happen.” For whatever reason I thought I only had the first eight episodes.

I keep thinking about the older gentleman at work who came in dressed all in metallic gold - And then when he spoke with an Italian accent, it made perfect sense.

“My mouth is peeling a lot lately. Wonderful what I’ve eaten recently that I’m allergic too.” Two seconds later: “Oh, I have some pineapple cider in the fridge. I’m gonna drink that-“ I’m allergic to pinapple. I am a disrespector of my own allergies.

Being sick and cooking myself beef and broccoli, holding back on adding extra spice because when I’m sick my spice tolerance goes down, and the last thing I need is spice related coughing- But it’s o bland without the spicey….

Some notes from tonight’s session. I’ll cheer on my 4 damage. I am purely a support role.

Handwritten Notes from a D&D session:

We fight a stalagmite (except I spelt it stalacmite)
Aine’s viscous mockery “Are you a stalagmite because nobody would let you grow down on them?” I did 2 damage.
The emergency button was pressed.
Kellen summons his boyfriend.
The stalagmite is fucked - not literally - that’s Kellen’s role.

After taking 35 points of damage from the genie, it’s still standing…

Lowen with only 2 hp manages to do 28 damage

We’ve done big damage (I’ve done 4!) and it’s still…

Okay. The genie killed him, but we may have lost Alexa - Nope! Genie saves her too!

There is further text cut off by the photo.

Went to draw but my Apple Pencil was dead. Like - dead dead. Would not charge dead. I did leave it uncharged for about two weeks, and I guess that did it in. Even tried warming it before charging- But nope. She dead. And I’m confronted with needing to fill my time with traditional art. (Oh no.)

I walk out of my bedroom - half asleep, eyes still shut, my only role in this world at that moment is to the feed my cat and use the restroom. Immediately get clotheslined by happy birthday banners my roommate put up.

I wasn’t really a fan of Tsubame, but I am in desperate need of gems for pulls so I can get go my way Lilja or- at least spark for her (I’m halfway there….) so I started easing her R and SR cards for idol road… I’ve grown fond of her cat like confident looks….

Screenshot of the character Tsubame Amaya, from Gakuen Idolmaster. She’s wears a black and white marching band like uniform, has her dark hair pulled back into a slick ponytail with blunt front bangs and long side bangs framing her face, and she sports a confident expression complete with a very slight w curve to her mouth making her look very cat like.

My dinner vs my cat who’s trying to pretend she’s not stealth sneaking up.

Dinner - plate with tritip, a brisket Mac and cheese, two cups of BBQ, and in the background a cider.

My cat.
A domestic short hair, with lynx point Siamese coloring.
Licking her paw, while staring directly at my dinner plate.
She’s been stealth sneaking up on my dinner all night, and as soon as I look at her she goes “oh I’m just grooming” “I’m just lying on the table.”

Chin-lan appreciation post.

Screenshot of the character Chang Chin-Lan from the anime “Kamiina Botan fully blossoms when drunk” (上伊那ぼたん、酔へる姿は百合の花)

She has short black hair, and long, straight, and dangly red earrings. The character has a cartoon stylized mischievous look on her face, and the subtitle says “I bet you shoved it all in the closet.”

Context is she’s talking to Ibuki, who has just greeted her at her bedrooms entrance with an apology about it taking longer than she thought to clean her room.

Making Katria a new reference sheet since she last got one in… 2019???? Using good ol csp 1.0 because I don’t wanna upgrade- And while it lacks some qol, I will give it kudos to forcing me to organize my layers. (Otherwise I go insane.) (The layer called “fucked up guidelines”? Very necessary.)

Lilly @aamaryllis.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

Nothing like updating your reference sheet with a different program than the one you used to make it originally, to make you feel like you need to start from scratch all over again.

I lie in bed. I ponder today’s dnd session. “We gotta stop fingering the holes….” “Everything dies when we finger the holes…” “Man, I’m just there for moral support and utility, but I’m being treated like a splat bot.” I will provide no context on what any of this means.

Me looking up au ra lore in JP is how I’m finally gonna learn how to pronounce Neoma’s last name

Post on Au Ra naming lore from the official FFXIV forums. The text is primarily in Japanese, but is going over the tribe names of the xaela, and a bit of their lore. This post can also be found in English on the English side of the FFXIV forums.

I think I will buy the Starbucks camera. I keep thinking about what I want and- The glass lense, or the filter/lens kit on some of the releases are nice. But I’m so attracted to that green color- I don’t like how the other available models look nearly half as much-

Lilly @aamaryllis.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

shopping for cameras while eating dinner I happen to see the new Starbucks x Lomo Automat- “I am about to do something stupid.” I’m not even a Starbucks drinker, the camera is just- Aesthetic. And it uses instax mini! So- (Justifying it in my head.)
