Wanting To Get In On Some Fandom Excitement Vs The Inability To Finish Or Keep Up With Any Form Of Media:

Wanting to get in on some fandom excitement vs the inability to finish or keep up with any form of media: FIGHT

messy first past of THIS picture that I sat on for a week because I really wanted to try to make a better one with references. I really like this mask though, I just couldn't figure out how to translate it into the angle I wanted on the other one. Circles...my undoing...

Thinking about ocs.....smoochin

😳

Hold still. - not a redesign or anything; just playing around

I was going to try to redo my refs to get into artfight, but i forgot that i have a terminal disease: character design perfectionitus I'm never going to get these done in time LMFAO

I have some experience with trying to avoid spoilers for things for literally years, due to a dumb set of circumstances. And in my experience, the benefits of trying to avoid spoilers over long periods never outweigh the costs. If you're going to have to avoid spoilers for something for more than two weeks, I'd recommend just reading a plot synopsis on Wikipedia, or watching a cut scene compilation, or watching the most recent two episodes, depending on what kind of media it is. If you do this, you aren't engaging with the piece of media the wrong way, you'r engaging with it in a way that works for you. Things are much more enjoyable if you stop worrying about experiencing them "correctly".

This is a really good point...My problem is constantly fighting the "but I haven't earned it" line of thought, hgmshgh. Thank you though, its reassuring to see people with processes for this kind of thing because it makes me feel less weird about it haha
