What Do You Do With Your Day (Artwise)

I am not sure this is the best place to post this, but whatever, it can be moved =P

Anyway, I was just wondering how people spend most of their days, if they have free time to spare. I like to spend my time outside at the park and work on my art forms and mediums. Today I am about to stroll out in my new spiffy bondage skirt I just made and work on some stainless steal chain mail jewelry, draw up designs for my next skirt (plenty of black velvet to go around), as well as draw some flash art (tattoo designs). I have A LOT of tattoos all that are of my own design (makes it cheaper to do your own when getting inked), I might work on a comic strip or two since that’s one of the things I have been hired to do. I am just not quite sure which style: Manga or Ameri-con? If I get the skirt design done the way I want with the materials I have, I may begin working on that later. Anyway, just wondered what others may have planned in the art department.

PS: Who says a degree in Liberal Arts and Design (with a Major in Interior Design) can’t get you anywhere? I know having a minor in Archery doesn’t do anything for me BLAH!

Actually I like archery. I was 2nd place in archery in college, and found it to be challenging and relaxing. I am afraid the college party life (West Ga College, now known as The University of West Ga) got to my grades-it was also reknown as a party school. I found my paints and am making a good easel, so hope to have some work finished for the upcoming fair in these parts (Cotton Picking Fair in Gay, Ga). On another note, I painted my toenails, and while it tokk a good bit of time to get it done, I found the ezxperience gratifying and rewarding. I ned a lot of practice or some guidance with makeup and fingernail and toenail polish! I am working on wardrobe now… a lot to do!

I build plastic model kits I had in my childhood, draw portraits, and paint pictures of aircraft I worked on almost everyday... almost did it on monday, almost did it on tuesday, almost did it...

Seriously, those are all things I want and plan to do, but I'm so messed up in the head right now, I can't seem to get motivated. But soon.

I tend to spent most of my artsy time in classes with boring professors. I usually just start doodling random things and sometimes it looks like something coherent.

I teach theatre arts (which means I get to design sets, play with pretty lights, make-up and costumes and direct plays. And after all that? I write stuff. Need to write more of it...

When I have the time I draw in my sketchbooks, usually with ballpoint pen. My drawings are sometimes stand-alone pieces but more often than that they're just nonsensical doodles. I took a lot of art classes in college ( almost majored in design ) and it's such an important part of myself. Recently I've been branching out from the safety of pencil and pen and tried my hand at charcoal and acrylic paint.

In a nutshell, as long as I'm using my imagination, I'm happy!

      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>

      How ironic.  I agree with the governor "“You cannot change your gender; you cannot pick your gender…there is a confused group of people that somehow think you can,”    - we are what we are, we are fighting the fact we CANNOT change our gender, which we did not pick.  Many if not all of us would not have picked a trans condition and have sought to evade, deny or move out or resolve it anyway we can.  Those who are confused on this issue are not trans folk.  They want us to change our gender but they deny we can.  Confusion.

      @FinnyFinsterHH no one can satisfy your questions about what will the future hold. But I can advise you to slow your mind down as much as you're able. Take it slow and one moment at a time. This advice goes beyond the practical reality that that's truly all you can do - further, try to enjoy each moment. It's clear you have a lot of aspirations regarding transition. But it's best to try to accept the bounds of your life circumstances at present because if you develop worries or even resentments about them, that will only make you bitter and more anxious. Instead, try to focus on anything you find affirming. Practice positive self-talk and give yourself affirmations too. Try to let go of expectations of your family members - they can only deal with change to the capacity they're able due to their own life conditions. Allow them grace as you wish they would allow you. Practice patience.   Try this exercise - read through your post and make one list of the positive developments and another of things you cannot control (including the future). If you have a sense of spirituality, offer the second list as a sacrifice to however you understand a higher power - leave it in their hands. If you're not spiritual, then offer it up to hope. Then throw that list away. Keep the list of positives and leave some room on it because guaranteed you'll have more and more to add. Look forward to that, but don't let your mind think it can rush things. Try to enjoy the ride.

      Happy birthday, Sam! Lotsa love!

      I still have not read much of this.  Very little of this document pertains to trans folk.  Some of the statements are more than problematic concerning trans folk.   It certainly was not written just to get us.   " those with gender dysphoria should be expelled from military service."  and "Reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military. Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service,"  https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-04.pdf are two lines out of hundreds if not thousands regarding the Department of Defense, targeting trans folk in an almost off-hand manner.    So if a fighter pilot, say, or a ship's captain, highly experienced and trained at enormous expense, is determined to be transgender (method unknown) the US loses someone badly needed due to the personnel shortage who is ready, willing and able to perform their duties.  Many trans folk have served well and transitioned later.  I don't think this point is well thought out.    A number of policy recommendations I would disagree with.  I am not sure there is a method to discuss those with the authors; I am attempting to find out.  I have good conservative creds.    They are fully intending to implement this, regardless of who the president is, as long as that president is conservative. It is not Trump centered.  I don't think he had anything to do with it.

      I wear a Delimira Mastectomy sleep bra with Vollence sleep rated breast forms. The form fit inside pockets so they don't touch your skin. I bought the bras on Amazon and found the forms on eBay. They were much less expensive than buying through the other sources.

      I wore an olive corduroy coverall dress with a navy blue shirt underneath. 
    • Ashley0616
      @LittleSamCongratulations on one of the biggest decisions. Looking forward to your progress. 
    • Ivy
      I don't wear a bra to bed.  The girls aren't big enough to need it, but still enough to appreciate.  Just a flannel nightgown suits me fine.
    • Ashley0616
      You're welcome. I'm here quite often if you need me.

      Yeah, that is the point.  And of course they can be proud of themselves for saving humanity.   Yeah.  That would be scary.  I'd find a bush somewhere like our GOP governor candidate recommends.  So far I've gotten away with the women's.  I've been told I pass better than I realize.  But it would only take one a55h0le.   This is all so stupid.  I mean, who gets off on hanging out in a bathroom?
    • Ashley0616
      Oh yes. It was not fun cleaning it up but he is better.
    • FinnyFinsterHH
      Thank you!
