Pinned toot

First pic inked with a crow quill. Definitely prefer it over the usual pens. (cw: nudity)

Crow quill and acrylic ink (which suuuucks, I want my India ink back).

Gonna get more ink tomorrow so the quill stuff will return eventually. Until then, it's just sketches.

Quick doodle because I want to get Splatoon 2 someday and felt like doodling a Marina.

Current mental/emotional status: Koko the clown singing St James Infirmary.

Local art store not only opened back up, it also decided to open up at the hours it said it would (last year you'd be lucky if the owner both showed up and stayed longer than an hour).

Thinking of getting a bottle of acrylic ink there once I have the extra cash (the one they sell is Speedball Superblack). Ran out of usable India ink for the nibs so I'd like to try out a different kind for testing purposes.

Maybe it's 'cause I use DuckDuckGo instead of google, but I cannot find any info on changing genders on birth certificates as an expat. Or changing it in a different country after renouncing US citizenship. 'Cause if that shit is possible then I'm switching the plan to move to another country from long-term to short.

I'm self-employed, a visa shouldn't be that difficult to obtain as long as income is proven.

And now I know that no matter how far away from the island I move, Puerto Rico will forever keep fucking me over.

"Can't change gender in birth certificate". So much for changing that shit before applying for a visa out of the continent.

Once again, the power company's working on the surrounding areas and ignoring this neighborhood. I'd be a bit more pissed but at least this time they're properly repairing those areas instead of lighting up 2-3 houses and calling it a month, so kudos for doing your damn job for once, you lazy fucks.

Maybe I should start making my non-art text posts public now that I have enough pics uploaded to this here space.

...Nah.

...I miss using the rig to post here. Mastalab is a good android app, don't get me wrong, but I really hate the amount of typos I have to keep correcting 'cause of touch screen shenanigans.

The fact that I've gotten used to living without electricity after almost half a year into this blackout is infuriating. The power should've been restored months ago.

This island is a joke.

By-the-by, I'd post more frequently but I'm limited by my phone's data (using a restaurant's wifi 'cause I'm not broke today). Still in the middle of a blackout over here (month six and still no signs of electricity).

...Well, that's demoralizing. Was kinda proud of that last pic. Oh well.

Also hi, this is (part of) why I haven't tooted in a while.

Anyway, pardon the toot barrage, but getting these off my chest both helps clear my head and get my thoughts in order.
