Survivor - Blog Posts

now i wanna just sort of finally find someone to talk to- to connect to. It’s just weird being on my own so frequently, aching to be loved and understood, but being terrified of actually connecting to someone. As i told the color green, if you allow yourself to be loved then you also open yourself up to vulnerability. And survivors of ab*** just don’t have that luxury.

Reparenting Affirmations for Child Abuse Survivors

I am so glad you were born.

You are a good person.

I love who you are and am doing my best to always be on your side.

You can come to me whenever you’re feeling hurt or bad.

You do not have to be perfect to get my love and protection.

All of your feelings are okay with me.

I am always glad to see you.

It is okay for you to be angry and I won’t let you hurt yourself or others when you are.

You can make mistakes. They are your teachers.

You can know what you need and ask for help.

You can have your own preferences and tastes.

You are a delight to my eyes.

You can choose your own values.

You can pick your own friends, and you don’t have to like everyone.

You can sometimes feel confused and ambivalent, and not know all the answers.

I am very proud of you.

Favorite scrunglo of the cast (both the DLC and base)?

oh, i forgot i technically still have requests open

these are my favorite base game and dlc slugcats, Survivor and Rivulet. i think it mostly boils down to me enjoying playing as normal littol critters. dont get me wrong, i do still like the other slugcats and enjoy playing as them, but im more drawn to these guys for some reason. i also really like their story, especially rivulet's

... i forgot the tail fins that i usually give rivulet. oops

Rain World Ostober 2 - Pictures of the Past

whoopsie daisy

The final installment of my " Boudoir Galactica " fan art portrait series. The concept of this one inspired the entire series. In the scene with Laura (sans wig) and Adama in bed, showed that a disease like cancer does not diminish one's beauty, that being "seasoned" can enhance one's beauty, and I wanted to portray that. This piece features President Laura Roslin portrayed by Mary McDonnell.

Good Omens - Survivor

"We're doomed."

"Well, then... welcome to the end times."

Just a little something to celebrate the announcement of season two.

To my tiny beanie baby self, who smiles at cats and loses a tooth by biting cotton candy. You don’t understand why things have happened the way they do, and neither do I, but maybe the words of this trusted adult will help ❣️

Mr. Gaiman, I know you mostly get asks about Good Omens these days, but I am a long-time fan. Of your work Coraline. I am a survivor of severe parental neglect and abuse, and I must have read the book hundreds of times in my childhood and I found great comfort in the movie, despite my now complicated feelings about Time Burton as a person. I guess I just wanted to thank you for creating a piece of art that made me feel less alone in my very isolated adolescence.

Do you have any advice for healing after such a traumatic start to life?

I'm glad Coraline has helped. (Tim Burton didn't have anything at all to do with the Coraline movie though.)

When I was young I believed that the way you healed was just to move on. Now I'm 63 and you realize that stuff never heals on its own. It's still there, waiting to jump out at you. But there are things that help: other people help, especially other people it's safe to talk to. Building a life can help. And making art out of trauma. That's good too.

I wished Coraline had been around when I was a child, and that was why I wrote it as an adult.
