- Reposted by Chrys 🌿[ EMERGENCY 𝖈𝖔𝖒𝖒𝖎𝖘𝖘𝖎𝖔𝖓𝖘 ] Today I got some bad news. I lost my job and am looking for another since it puts my family in a not great position because we're locked in to move in June. If you're running a tabletop game and looking form maps, please consider my commissions. #dnd #dnd5e #vtuber

- top surgery recovery update: Showering is a full contact sport
- third day: I've hit the "everything kind of sucks" part of recovery I'm not in tremendous pain but enough subtle pain I'm not feverish but my temp is still elevated I'm exhausted but even resting is exhausting that kinda deal
- second day post surgery: Was feeling pretty good all things considered, but then they had to tighten my drains and now I feel like I'm getting repeatedly stabbed in my left side (making me go from 0.5 pain to like 25 pain on the 1-10 pain scale) got some opioids to help me deal eith that tho
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿Did you know you can STITCH your zines together? That's right. If you're not into staples, for whatever reason, you can use coordinating or contrasting thread (or ribbon, or twine, or dental floss...) to make limited-edition versions of your booklets.

- [✨ 2025 Art - Prince of Fae ] Decided to lock in and finish a quick artwork (it wasn't quick) before I have surgery next week and won't be able to get much of anything done for a bit -- -- #illustration #Vtuber #ENVtuber #artsky
- Top surgery next week 🥳 I'm nervous as fuck but also very excited (in which that manifests in it feeling like the exact same emotion lmao) If anyone has any tips or recs on things I should make sure to get in advance, I'd appreciate that! 🫶🏳️⚧️
- Man, what is it about posting on social media/online that just saps all of my energy 😭 I have so many cool things I'm working on but never have the energy to post abt them Like, the thought of making listings for like... 20-or-so pieces of stock art has me drained immediately even tho it's easy 🫠
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿So I haven't traditionally been much of a poster - mostly a lurker. But I'm going to be posting every day about the content included in my upcoming book! Is some of this hopeless shilling? Yes, of course. But also I'm hoping it'll be a little revealing about what goes into designing for 5E.
- Them: We can't at all see your process from your portfolio Me, who, for some projects, has signed NDAs that forbid these things: So, YOU SEE,,, I *literally* cannot do that But yknow they would've learnt of that and if they had just invited me for that stupid ass interview
- "we can't tell what *you* made from these images« EVERYTHING!! (minus the Text ofc) EVERY. FUCKING. THING. OR ELSE IT WOULD NOT BE IN MY PORTFOLIO. If a spread had stuff on it I didn't make, I'D HAVE PUT A FKN NOTE. *What do you mean I'm "hiding behind decorations"??? I MADE THOSE????? HELLO?!??!*
- Can companies that don't know about TTRPGs (and its expansive Indie-Scene) please stop fucking assuming that all my work is "hobby-work" and not REAL WORK MADE FOR REAL CLIENTS??? Like, every single Element in my Layouts is hand-drawn/hand-designed *which is why it's in my portfolio*.

- Reposted by Chrys 🌿Hey gang! If you need crests/coat of arms/icons for games or books, feel free to DM me! $5 for one crest, or $15 for four! Looking to try and bring in a little cash on the side, as housing and groceries are tight right now. Any bit goes a long way!
- It's honestly been a blast working on the Layout for these two! Really happy that they turned out well in print and I'm excited to get my own copies soon :3
- So yesterday something awesome arrived in the mail!!!! DayLITE: Modan and DayLITE: Ixla Tanis are officially now POD titles! @chrysalidcore.bsky.social is the core reason behind why we were able to bring these two amazing books into the physical world, and I applaud them! 🧵

- in other news, it's weird to realise that my mental health is at a much better baseline nowadays bc the times I get hit with anxiety + consequences of unmedicated audhd + other mental setbacks hits so much harder than it used to (it's an actual setback now and not a "oh, another day of this" yknow)
- Completely forgot to update here but ya Boy got their confirmation notice that my insurance will cover my Top Surgery 🥳🏳️⚧️ (only took me fighting with them for 3 months to convince them itxs medically necessary) Late-March !!! I'm so excited aaa

- Reposted by Chrys 🌿since it is Muppet Christmas Carol time, let us revisit this wonderful interview with Michael Caine, who loves it as much as the rest of us “People say to me, Have you ever sung? I say, Yes, I sang in a movie. They say, Who with? I say, Kermit the Frog.”
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿it’s my birthday and i’m doing charity sketches for Palestine!!!
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿Sometimes Japanese followers ask me “what’s birb/borb?” Illustrations are always useful for explaining this kind of slang.
- 私がよく使っている単語”birb”はインターネットスラングで「トリチャン」のことです。日本人が犬のことをイッヌと言うのに近いニュアンス。 元々Borb(Bird/鳥 + Orb/玉)という「まんまるな鳥」を意味するスラングがあって、Birbは「まんまるとは限らないが、さりとてかわいいトリチャン」ぐらいの汎用的なポジションです。 #ArtworkMoa810

- waiting for my insurance to approve an extension to my therapy sucks a lot rn I know my therapist said that I can still get an app. if I really need it and I'm stuck in anxious overthinking hell since earlier today, so much so that I'm overthinking if it's bad enough to justify an appointment 🫠

- self checkout clerks who try to get a queer person arrested over 60 cents are such wannabe cops like the store is not gonna give you a raise lil bro just because you got aggro over someone not realising the machine doesn't calculate the # of items based on weight

- I urge my western followers to please check out the profiles of the Palestinians who have followed me recently! A lot of them have GoFundMe campaigns to help them survive I might miss some here and there so please help out and share their posts even if you cannot donate yourselves
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿When you see Gazans on your TL asking for help, please be kind. Don’t report them. If you don’t want to help, there’s a Mute button. It’s literally a life and death situation for them. Please & Thank you 🙏🏼 🥺#KindnessMatters #humanity Winter Struggles in #Gaza youtu.be/5aycn76KJqg?...
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿I am going to try to keep adding accounts here as I work through the Palestinian accounts here. I am going to make this 🧵 to answer as many common questions about these accounts as well as other Gazan GoFundMes as I can so put a 📌 in it if you need a central location for these questions.

- Reposted by Chrys 🌿UPDATE about the deletion of Palestinians accounts. I want to thank @support.bsky.team for getting back to me on a very busy week and also answering my follow up questions. I’ll lead with the most important thing before explaining a little more in this thread 🧵
- So I hate to tag the mods- but I sent this email about the mass deletion of Palestinian accounts over a week ago to @support.bsky.team and I haven’t heard anything back (apologies if I somehow missed an email). I’d like to ensure it will be seen by the proper people.

- Reposted by Chrys 🌿Please support bookshops. Independent bookshops. They are so wonderful. Yes you pay a little more. But I think of it as paying for the experience. The experience of browsing. And that oh-so-important bookshop smell. 🖖 Fu** big corporations.
- Reposted by Chrys 🌿I hardly see anything about Palestine here, and that must change. Here is a thread of vetted fundraisers for people in Palestine who need help! All fundraisers are from gaza-evacuation-funds on tumblr. I don’t verify fundraisers 🧵🇵🇸
