iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

If something shitty happens to my main bike now, I might just crumble into a heap. Oh and becoming more anemic by the day, too. Ongoing health, medicine and chronic pain issues and ultrasound to be scheduled. Psych appt, and winter is creeping near. Man, I just want to draw. I'm just a lil guy.

I really don't think I deserve to be smacked in the gob by 3mo of anxiety and suffocating breathing issues, my birthday visit from my partner getting torpedo'd by my cranky mother, gas leak, tax guys breathing down my neck, and now an insane bill like this. Not sure what I did to earn this karma.

I genuinely don't know what I'm going to do about this one. I need to look into my gas company's income subsidies for efficiency upgrades and stuff but like... Gotdamn. Okay then.

Well... A lad's 25+ year old furnace apparently needs replaced after all, and I do not have the money for that right now. Not even my savings I've built up slowly for 10 years can cover it. Almost an 8k quote jfc. Minus the 250 for the service call and tune up. Measly comfort.

I forgot to post this doodly doo of @ashworks.bsky.social 's boy Dzan that I did like... maaaany weeks ago lmao #art #OCsky

A digital marker drawing in greyscale of a dark haired man (Dzan Macbain) in his 20s sitting on a bench. He's smoking, resting his elbow on his knee, and has one black eye and bloody knuckles. He's got on slim cut dark jeans, a black jacket and pale tee, with lowrider chucks. It's clear he got in a fight, whether he won or not is a mystery

I finally caved and bought this and my god is this thing ever a beefster of a book. 10/10 big ass boy, reading it is strength training. It's over 900 pages lol

LOL Claire linked this the other day and I genuinely crow cackled when it hard-cut to ... well. The whole rest of the animation after the opening X'DDD It's so early 2000s purehearted OC foolery x devianart edge and it made me so happy and so seen at the same time X'D

Jokes on them, I love longform comics that are still surprising and taking me for a ride right up until the epilogue lol. Practically my favourite kinda comic✨ I'm pro normalizing not having all the info shoveled onto me in chapter 2. Phanto is just fine as it is 👍🙏

Oh damn, they're giving an extra 20$ off since I already have at least one. If you're logged in, and add it to your cart, it shoooould downgrade the price to 89$ in the cart itself At least it did for me when I tried ^^ I mean, it might still not be worth it you have like... 3+ of them lol

"What brush are you using?" /points to the link These, lol. Getting these legit transformed my work and I have NO regrets about buying them. If you are low income and can't afford them right now, but would REALLY like to try them... maybe shoot me a dm huh? They have a sampler available too.

Yeah! You can do quite a bit more toe posing than things like magic poser. It has a demo even, so you can just give it a try and see : 3

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

There's a program on Steam called Haele 3D Feet Poses, and I bought it, to help get better posing and angles, and then I noticed in the steam tags it said #nsfw and I was like NO--!! (they have since removed that tag) The lewd comments on the storepage remain tho.

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Honestly the foot fetish thing has become an inside joke in a group chat with friends. We even made a custom 'omgfeet' discord emoji for it. All for the same reason XD Because I started studying them to draw them better lol. By that logic, I must have a fetish for a LOT of things lmao

Oh yeah, just had the house a bit turned upside down and a mild anxiety episode. The cats were not stoked about their chilly driveway time. (Put a blanket on them) Got through it though! I always underestimate my own ability to chatter someone's ear off when I'm nervous lol. Very patient fireman 🥲💦

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Frick I'm tired and I still need to get my eyeballs stabbed tomorrow too. And make a furnace repair appointment. The ole heater is struggling. That's what caused the leak. Pilot light's weak and out of sync. The entire man brigade rec'd this one repair guy tho. So I know who to call at least.

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Ugh not me having a gas leak in my bloody house at 3am in the morning x_x Four (thankfully delightful) volunteer firemen in my crappy little tin can house at once. My cats, wailing in their carriers in the driveway. Neighbours jimmies thoroughly rustled. Too much excitement!!

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

The cognitive dissonance of 'we need adult free spaces, adults DNI' and 'I'm going to invade your explicitly labeled adult spaces/accounts to steal your lewds and rudes' I'm not assuming these are the same individuals, or a monolith, but like yikes nonetheless. It is very annoying.

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

This isn't really looking for advice or anything. Just a bit of lamentation. I already know all the tricks and tips. I give that kind of advice to people all the time. Sometimes the tricks just aren't doin it. Or maybe I'm just extra fuckled and need to be patient. Probably that.

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I managed to get a decent rough pose hashed out for a thing long overdue. So that's something. I just feel like my power's been utterly sapped and I'm not sure how to access that anymore with any kind of reliability. I've tried several angles/methods already but it's only temporary. Idk... Idk

RayDay @rayday.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Knocking the can't-draw rust off is very hard sometimes man I dunno... My brain is fighting me so hard, but I got shit I need to do here. Feels like it's just been months and months of this same shit off and on. Why can't I just draw. I deserve peace. Frick.

I'm not normally a big fan of cinnamon (bad experience with stale cinnamon that tasted like actual dirt) but I'd be willing to try a little in this case! Big cheers for garbage soups tho, I do the same with whatever's about to get too freezerburnt. Dump it all in the pot lmao

Yeah and this amount makes a tonnnn of chili for leftovers. I fed two people and we had another 4 bowls to enjoy the next day. You can also put sour cream, chopped green onions and shred cheese on top then eat it with nacho chips! It's so goodddd!!

Oh no!!! That's such bullshit, I can't believe they just tore it apart so badly to steal it like... bitch, what's the point in even stealing something if you broke it so far beyond repair anyway I hate them, I hope the thief steps on a billion legos and may their asshole be itchy in public forever.
