weirdly large number of people who feel entitled to dunk on reels specifically on instagram for seemingly no reason except they think throwing rude jabs will earn them funny points or something💀joyless people who will never feel the amount of self fulfillment you do from making your fave art

thinking about how screwllum is like the only member of the genius society that doesn't have a personality disorder and he's the only one that's a legit robot-

One of my favorite parts of my partner is that no matter how out-there and weird the thing I'm creating is, he doesn't question it and just trusts I know what I'm trying to achieve with it LOL

like to start with, what constitutes "high quality" is comprised of a ton of different metrics that mean different things to each person, and can't even be applied evenly across different fabrics ex. to a lot of people quality means the fabric is durable in the wash, but that doesn't apply to silk

chiro🐟 @chiro.fish · 13/09/2026

I don't think I could ever bring myself to make vids about my work on tiktok for a lot of reasons but the increasing amount of people declaring what makes a piece of clothing "high quality" or not based off of like...no information is a big one LOL

in my defense I've concluded that cheong is the ultimate treatment for making syrups that preserve the taste of fruit best and I will probably never make a cooked strawberry syrup again because I don't like how the heat morphs the flavor

0110

chiro🐟 @chiro.fish · 11/09/2026

my partner has humorously pointed out to me that when I'm stressed I tend to want to make fun little syrups for my home cafe drinks and I'm afraid he's right because I just looked into the fridge and had to push 6 different jars of cheong out of the way to reach the eggs

aventurine blindsided me so hard in how much I got attached because when I first met him in game I actually really disliked him HALKFNDLSAKFN and then somehow they turned me around on him 😭 and now I'm the fan being serviced

oh I'm the audience being marketed to meow meow

ty for the heads up! Definitely another thing I gotta revisit now 😭 keeping on top of regulations that are always changing is rough; I do have occasional orders from germany in particular

120

I also don't really want to pressure or make it the implied responsibility of clients and customers to cover for business misfortune that happens to me; I fight really hard to create and present things that someone chooses to buy because they like it/my vision, not because they feel obligated to me

1100

I've avoided talking about the exact scale of how boned I got by things like tariffs, ever-changing import compliances, etc. because I don't like to sound as if I'm begging for pity sales, but I also want ppl to understand that even if someone looks rly successful, maybe we're just masking well

1120

an ordeal I still have not recovered from tbh (I had to take out hella business loans to pay those invoices, and even with a stellar credit score the rate on those loans is no joke) I like being transparent about behind the scenes struggles because I want ppl to understand the big picture but

chiro🐟 @chiro.fish · 04/09/2026

one day when I'm not so mentally exhausted I will tell the story about how I ended up having to pay over $70k+ more than what I was originally planning on to get the jackets shipped to me this year, due to tariff and customs regulations that changed very suddenly

1180

oh how I would Love to be able to just ignore them LOL (but they're asking for a refund so I have to reply and tell them I can't do that when it was their mistake lol)

getting stressed at 7 am after not sleeping all night because argumentative customer emails (from someone who Did Not Read, as usual) came in 🫠

I keep thinking about how a little while ago someone was asking what brushes I use when coloring/rendering and deadass like 85% of it is literally not even a brush it's the default hard + soft eraser in CSP 💀

chiro🐟 @chiro.fish · 29/08/2026

no wait this is a top tier birthday activity

chiro🐟 @chiro.fish · 17/08/2026

I was packing orders earlier and suddenly remembered how early on, I would save all the cardboard boxes from everything else to re-use for shipping my own store orders even if they were still printed/taped up with tons of other branding, to save on costs💦 things really have changed a lot since then

I really want to regain some more hold and progress on my personal life after ANYC is over 💦 I've been neglecting my personal life a lot for more than a year atp

chiro🐟 @chiro.fish · 12/08/2026

ok yeah I am definitely cutting down on my event/convention lineup for next year a bit, cons are def at that point where outside of a select few they're just causing me more stress and expense than they're worth doing

I will forever judge and gripe about ppl's "expense tracking" that they show in vids bc 9/10 times they do not ever account for the cost of goods sold and then wildly misrepresent their numbers for the views 💀

040

I hate the "I'm not gatekeeping!" statement bc then the "secrets" shared are just like the most basic things you might have not even needed a google search for, just logic 💀but idk maybe that's becoming a rare ability now with everyone trying to outsource their thinking to ai
