Today's practice. Learned that using acrylic as correction fluid only works when you have a scanner available (editing it out via the phone was a pain). Also, few things bring down the mood quicker than seeing obvious mistakes right before uploading.

I was able to plug in my computer at a relative's place, and I'm glad to see it survived the hurricane.

This was also a reminder as to how much I dislike drawing digitally but hey, the Cintiq also made it.

I will slap whoever told my stepdad that the poles powering this street won't be fixed until JUNE.

Don't even JOKE ABOUT THAT.

Unrelated to last toot: I still feel like an outlier in these social media on account of my inability to shitpost. All I know is how not to be an asshole.

I blame Asperger's. :V

O-kayyyy... Note to self: Once I start posting finished pics over here, skip Patreon and go with Ko-Fi.

More practice stuff. Still need to design their tattoos (bottom-left's supposed to be covered in 'em). I'll post proper finished stuff here someday.

Marked sensitive for nudity.

Someday I'll have more interesting stuff to toot, art and otherwise.

Someday I'll also have electricity in my home instead of hopelessly waiting for the electric company to get their shit together and remember this neighborhood's existence.

Neither of these days will be arriving anytime soon.

One day I'm gonna post something that *isn't* practice. That'll have to wait until the lights come back (two months after hurricane Maria and we're still dark. because Puerto Rico).

Today I learned my mom's friends are very toxic influences. Certainly explains her insistence on homeopathy and utter reluctance to letting me research where to catch up with my vaccines before I leave.

Soon as the lights come back I should start going into overdrive, art-wise. All this time here and the only pic I ever posted was a practice doodle.

Starting to see people I never expected to use this platform. I don't know what happened to motivate 'em to give it a shot (power's still down after almost two months, and you can't get more living-under-a-rock than that), but I'm just glad I can keep up with my webcomics from here now.

Looks like the street behind where I live has electricity. Shouldn't be long before they start work on this one (hopefully).

I can't wait until I can use an actual keyboard again (assuming the rig survived the hurricane—barely got it out of the office area when the ceiling got damaged).

...Good lord, it took too long to get back online. Frickin' hurricanes.

Power is still out for over 50% of Puerto Rico a month and a half after hurricane Maria, and that percentage includes me. Seriously, as soon as the lights come back and I can work again I'm saving money to leave this place.

Hurricane's due to hit the island later today as a Category 5. Unknown how long we'll be without electricity.

I'm gonna miss having internet.

Two hurricanes in one month. One of which is likely to be a direct hit this Wednesday.

This is why I want to leave Puerto Rico as soon as possible.

...I bought materials so I could learn how to shade with ink washes while the post-Irma blackout happened. I should've known better than that (so godddamn muggy it was hard to function).

Really glad that the electricity came back after just two days.

Welp. Hurricane Irma's coming. Got a warning and everything.

Wonder how long the blackouts will last this time.

...Yeah, I think this'll work. Public for the occasional pic, unlisted for everything else. Should keep the clutter down.
