i'm the kind of person who'll be having a bad day then i'll see a seagull just standing around with the emptiest expression on its face and then it'll compress its neck and charge at something and everything is ok again

i am extremely good at shitposting because i am incapable of thinking linearly and the joke format of normal sentence -> HOW DID WE ARRIVE HERE?? is natural for me because it's how my ADHD works, and i just have a childlike joy about every small thing

i'll be thinking about leeches and my brain immediately goes "leeches are just wireless magnetic chargers" cos i looked at one at the same time 😂

i've given up so bad on twitter that my account is just 90% flagrant shitposting now, it's the only way the platform is usable tbh. it's very funny bc my personality shocks people if they only knew me from my art because it's Bleak but i'm just like....constantly upbeat and all of my humour is incredibly absurdist and sardonic

i cannot accurately describe the intensity of relief i will feel when this semester is over though. university has occupied a massive part of my brain & bad health for 5 years. i'll finally have the brain space to think about my projects again

the only time my art brain and technical brain are active at once is worldbuilding. otherwise i tend to be in one mode or the other, which means i neglect art spaces when i have a lot of tech study i need to do :C hyperfixation will be the end of me

i miss you all very much 😭 i've not had anything wholesome or art related to share lately, just fixated on preparing for university which involves very little art at the moment.

i've forgotten a tonne of neuroscience & IT things bc i last did them like, 1.5 years ago, but 3D art is fresh in my mind due to the last unit. so 3D character modelling takes a back seat for now

i am so s t r e s s e d i need to continue learning how to do 3d modelling & also neuroscience revision bc that too has been a while. those 2 are easy though. networking is just a dense subject they have to try to cram into short subjects and it's consistently the worst experience bc of this

it's funny too cos networking is by far my fave part of IT.....

computers talk to eachother a lot better than humans do, despite all their faults 😭

*woosh*

i spent about 50 hours on the document and tables for my command revision and like 3 hours on actually documenting them. but now The Real Work Begins.

there are so many commands to remember. good lord. gotta do the basics, the setting up protocols, and access control lists + VLans (controls who sees what on the network) and then i get to approach this giant document

anyway i might disappear for a while, i only have 4 weeks to sort myself for my last semester
