tbh it would be delightful for someone to see at least a single ORANGE pixel in my art. they're very few and rare or just don't exist and most of the time not there for a good reason.

I only ever make real art when nobody understands what I make and/or a significant set of people will hate it.

i make a wide variety of things. You will never be able to predict what I will make next, because neither can I predict what I will make next!

the first art depicting C1558, from Sept 2023. The changeling obsession goes all the way back to 2012 or 2013, so I think that's ingrained in me and never going away.

Digital art of two characters: A fluffy green gryphon character on the left being magically levitated by a changeling character on the right. The changeling species originates from My Little Pony. The changeling is saying "bird". The gryphon's forelimbs are tied together with green slime, implying that the gryphon is captured. The gryphon doesn't seem to mind and is focused on something else out-of-frame.

I feel like my appearance doesn't match my personality. I look all cute and huggable on the outside but half of my head is that 'ranty programmer type' who is skeptical and argues a lot but is very practical, named 558. Sometimes they feel like they're stuck in my body, dealing with my problems.

a little over a decade ago, I thought 'pegasister' sounds cooler than 'brony'. This still seems to be an unpopular opinion to this day, but it was an early indicator of my transness. I generally don't like being called a bro, dude, or guy, even though I'm told these are gender-neutral.

i want to stop drawing so much. it's not a good way for me to express myself. just not for me. I do so many other things, but pushed towards doing art because it's what people seem to care about and like. I recognize that this isn't healthy for me.

back on my first day of high school, I remember i was in a conversation with someone and he called me [r-word]. I pretended to be really offended and he just kept going. The next day, he said sorry. I then revealed I faked it all and called him a horrible person.

I have experience working with thousand-file-large C++ projects with complex build systems and using tools like CMake. I don't ever want employers to know this because I never ever want to work with this shit ever again.

this is 558 and me. it's not drawn good but to me it's the #1 most 'art' thing i have ever drawn. i want to draw more stuff like this. 558 is a bitch though.

why are many leftists so trigger-happy with calling people nazis? Comparison to perpetrators of The Holocaust for minor things trivializes the horrors of that period. It's reserved for genocides, the extreme far-right, or ones who identify by it. Otherwise, it's a weak, lazy, laughable argument.

not agreeing with other people right away, doing my own research, making my own observations and judgments is unlikable, frowned upon, and bigoted. one of my biggest flaws.

i once hallucinated these creatures called 'bitefoals'. They resemble small fillies and colts but with large eyes, tiny pupils, faded colours, no cutie mark, and no mouth. I saw them standing clustered together like some bug species.
