posting this while nobody is looking because it makes me laugh

idek if this is a ship or not. probably not

We interrupt this artposting program to bring you the super rare progress photos of ya homey. :)

Generally I don’t like posting photos of myself, partly cuz I just don’t wanna (not the best selfie taker, what can I say) and partly cuz this blog is almost entirely my artstuff, but since I do wanna talk about my weightlifting journey sometimes I figured I’d make an exception every now and then. ;w;

More detail under the cut, but for the TL;DRs:

Fitness goal anniversary celebration. 2 years + some change in the making. Initial goals: fatloss, strengthbuilding, repair relationship with food

RED TOP PHOTOS: 220-ish lbs, 33-36% BMI, 2021

PINK AND BACK PHOTOS: 175lbs, 27-28% BMI, 2023

Current notes: Overall healthier and happier in my own body. Food relationship vastly improved. Noticeably stronger, higher energy, and much better asthma management

This one is to essentially celebrate the progress I’ve made thus far! A little late, but last month was my fitness journey’s anniversary. It’s been roughly 2 years since I started being physically active, and 1 year + some months since I’ve  consistently weight-trained.

That first pair of photos was me I thiiiiiink like 2 months into the start of all this, back in 2021? I weighed roughly 220-ish lbs at the time, BMI roughly 33-35% and I only note this because fatloss was very much a part of my overarching goals. I won’t lie, some of it was because of aesthetics, but a lot of it was because I felt like shit. As someone who was very sporty as a kid up til college, the change was very noticeable. I was ALWAYS tired no matter how much I slept. I had constant back pain and headaches. My biggest tipoff was the fact that my asthma management got worse. All that plus other factors is what really kicked my butt into gear into this journey.

The 2nd and 3rd sets of photos are from this year (2nd set was today, 3rd set was like 2 weeks ago), nearly 50lbs lighter and at a rough BMI of 27-28%. And I can’t lie I feel fuckin’ good. I can do pullups (couldn’t even do 1 back in the day). Pushups are fucking easy now. I can bench my own bodyweight. I can deadlift almost twice that. I don’t wheeze when I walk up the stairs, I take regular walks, I sleep better, my energy levels are far higher, my moods are overall far better, I have no backpain anymore... MY AFRO GREW AND I GOTS A TATTOO! :D

This is probably the strongest and healthiest I’ve ever been and that’s saying something in my eyes, all things considering. And it was fuckin’ hard for a variety of reasons I won’t talk your ears off about. Sometimes still is, but I feel more prepared and even eager at times to deal with the obstacles.

But yeah! Apologies for breaking from the arts and headcanons, I just wanted to be a lil proud of myself for a sec. :) Whatever journey ya’ll are on I hope you find it in yourself to be proud of the progress you’ve made as well, even with all the ups and downs! :>

Question, what is the red thread au about like what is the relationship between aubrey and basil and why or how did basil get pregnant (referring to the post about the miscarriage artpost)

I think I explained it a couple of times, but maybe posts got cluttered (serving as answering a similar ask from @natalyyyya , sorry I forgot to answer yours.,)

Essentially, Aubrey gets infatuated with the church's florist (florist, funeral and weddings thingy too) after watching him everyday when taking the same path to the town when delivery goods from the bakery she works at (which Mari owns)

They don't meet till a year later, when Aubrey's mother dies and she attends the funeral.

What Aubrey is pretty much unaware of, or blind to, due to her own love, is that Basil will be the reason her world burns and crumbles down

- about their relationship, it's a bit of a clutter. I made a little chart a while back for fun, maybe it will be useful. But it short Aubrey is sweet and sad, troubled and so so in love, and Basil uses that to his advantage, at least mostly.

It's not really codependent from Basil's part at least to a certain point in the story, he relishes in the attention Aubrey gives him, but he can always find another toy to play with if he pleases. Basil is having fun, toying with her, to reach a goal and also for his own personal need to be loved

About the pregnancy thing, Basil is lonely and would do anything to feel love and touch, and let's people take advantage of it. Getting involved with one of the people that frequent the church regularly in a short-lived relationship, after the incident he can no longer bear children so he ended up alone again

Information about me and this Blog:

I've been thinking about this for a while now and came to the decision that I should give some information on what types of post you guys can expect from me. So here's some information about me and a list of shows, movies and games I really like.

So first things first: If you're a proshipper unfollow now and don't even think about interacting with me! I do not want to see you on my blog. Anyway, I'm known as StrawberryStar however I also go by the name Starberry since it's shorter and a combination of strawberry and star. I'm a 20 year old female. I speak both German and English relatively fluently I also am able to speak a bit Spanish however my Spanish really isn't taht good. I draw in my freetime. I don't usually call myself an Artist because I don't do it very often and I honestly don't think I'm good but I do draw when I feel like it because I like doing it even if I may not be very good. So I may or may not post a drawing in the future. Don't expect it to be very good or anything tho and don't expect it to come for sure tho. I usually don't tend to upload a lot of my drawings. I usually don't think about uploading them and if I do it usually only comes months after I've drawn it. There are some pics of my drawing on my Instagram (which also can be found when looking for StrawberryStar) and my old DeviantArt Account (which I'm not gonna name since I don't use it anymore) but I'm not very reliable when it comes to art posts (or posts in general). Right now I don't have much time on drawing things anyway but I may or may not post something if I find the time. Who knows. Even I can't say for sure. Anyway, I love analysing my favorite shows and talking about details and such so you can expect stuff like that. However just like with the artposts don't expect them to come often. They'll probably come more often than the artposts (those may as well never come it depends on how I feel) but I generally do not post a lot on social media. Most of my posts probably will be random junk like me complaining about proshippers or stuff like that.

Now about my favorite movies: I generally love watching Disney/Pixar movies and superhero movies. However I haven't watched a lot of them. My favorite movie right now is Encanto. I just love the themes and how it focuses on following the only family member who doesn't seem very special at first glance but in actually may as well be the most special in her family for not needing a supernatural gift to be talented. I also like the movie Turning Red a lot. It just reminds me a lot of when I was that age. And just like with Encanto I really like the themes here. I've also really liked the movie Inside Out when it came out back then and I still like it to this date. Tho I haven't watched it in quiet some time. I also like both Frozen 1 and 2 and I like Tangled. I do like the original Spider-Man movies from 2002-2007 (I think that's the time they came out?) And the The Amazing Spider-Man movies from 2012-2014 (if I remember correctly). As you probably can guess I really like Spiderman. I also like the Iron Man movies from 2008-2013.

Now here's a list of my favorite shows so don't be surprised if I ever post about them: Miraculous, My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, Little Witch Academia, Lost Song, My Little Pony, Amphibia, The Owl House. Both Amphibia and The Owl House actually take the top spots when it comes to my favorite shows. Funny considering how at first I tried avoiding these because the giant bugs in Amphibia and the horrifying fantasy world of The Owl House creeped me out. I actually only started watching Amphibia after season 3B started airing but I'm happy I did end up giving both of these shows a chance since they're so great.

A short list of my favorite games: I love playing games however I get some kind of motion sickness really fast when I start playing certain types of games and I don't know what's up with that but it's the biggest reason why I don't tend to play a lot of games. Anyway, I really like playing Hollow Knight, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, A Hat In Time and Minecraft. I also like the Pokémon Genre a lot. I did notice that I can play Zelda, Hollow Knight and Pokémon without problems however as soon as I try playing A Hat In Time or Minecraft? Well let's just say I get sick really fast. There's also some games I really like but can't play myself because they're horror and I would end up breaking/throwing something valuable. Like I really like Bendy and the ink machine and the FNaF franchise. However if I'd try playing them myself I would definitely end up breaking something.

And well of course here's a list of my favorite ships: I actually don't really care much for shipping because I'm usually happy as long as the characters are happy don't end up in a toxic relationship but that doesn't mean there aren't certain ships I do prefer. First things first my most favorite ship of all time is Lumity. Those two just are the cutest. They're my OTP. I can never get enough of those two. Then there's my favorite MLB ships. Lukanette, Marichat and pretty much every side of the love square because every single one has a different dynamic and makes it so interesting, Julrose and Marcaniel. My favorite MHA ships are Izuocha, Todomomo and Kiribaku. I don't really like Bakudeku, Tododeku or Bakutododeku. I find the Izuku x Bakugo ships toxic however I don't really hate any of those ships. I just don't care for them and would prefer other ships over them. Tho I guess I'd prefer Tododeku over Bakudeku.

Now my favorite characters: As you might have guessed it Amity Blight is my absolutely most favorite fictional character. Mirabel Madrigal is close tho. However I also like Luz Noceda, Anne Boonchuy, Sprig Plantar, Polly Plantar, Dolores Madrigal, Isabela Madrigal, Zoé Lee, Fei Wu, Juleka Couffaine, Luka Couffaine, Alya Césaire, Ochako Uraraka, Izuku Midoryia, Diana Cavendish, Nezuko Kamado, Tanjiro Kamado, Shinobu Kocho & Kanao Tsyuri.

Anyway, as mentioned above don't expect me to post often but what you can expect from me is random posts about either one of the movies, shows or games I mentioned. Most of my posts probably will be about Miraculous tho. So if you don't like that show I should warn you that most of my posts are about that.

✨My Fair MerMay✨ So happy to have finally posted something for #mermay - the first and last time I posted for this challenge was one sketch way back in 2018, so this feels pretty good! ✨ I don’t think I matched the vibe of #myfairlady and there are a few things about the composition I would want to change if I was a little bit more skilled - maybe I’ll do a repaint in a couple of years? - but on the whole I’m super proud of this! I think it’s the first time I’ve painted completely new that was inspired by something else and it was so much fun! 🙌🏻 ✨ Hope you like it! Swipe to see close ups and the process video! 😘 ✨ Painting info: Procreate, 9hr30mins #artpost #digitalpaintings #procreatepainting #jellyfishart #mermay2021 #mayartchallenge #artchallenge #blueandgreen #oceanartist #sealifeart #mermayart #mermaidpainting #originalcharacterdesign #blackandwhitedress #paintingvideo #processvideo #speedpainting #lockdownart https://www.instagram.com/p/CPBccA9Di_V/?utm_medium=tumblr

🔷Updates🔷 It’s been a busy time, hasn’t it? Seems like everything is happening at the same time. Because I’ve received a couple messages asking about the art series I’m working on, I thought it would be good to give some updates. 🔷“Ambient” art series🔷 As I posted before, I am working on an art series of ten paintings. Each one is influenced by and created to an ambient music artist. It was originally scheduled to release in May, but since I only have 5 of 10 paintings completed, the release will come a little later. I will begin promotion, plus teasers, well before the launch so keep an eye out for those posts. 🔷Ford Gallery🔷 It seems we can’t shake this pandemic. Once again here in Oregon, restaurants and other businesses are shutting down. Galleries are not immune. For the time being, viewing art is by appointment only or online. I have a couple paintings on exhibit at Ford Gallery of Art right now, you can go to their website to see those as well as other works of art. Appointments can also be scheduled there too. The website address is in my bio above. 🔷New art🔷 Thank you to everyone for the likes and comments on my new artworks. I’m very proud of my new work, I am very focused and deeply devoted to the creative process and these new works show that. I am always happy to speak with art fans and collectors about y work. I invite you to DM or email- [email protected] Thanks for reading friends. If you have any questions or comments please leave them below, I love to hear from you. Have a great weekend! . . . . . #artupdates #artnews #artpost #dailyarts #artistinstudio #bnw #piecewithartist #oregonartist #portlandoregon #artworkinstudio #fordgallerypdx #originalpaintings #artseries #wscranmore #artist (at Milwaukie, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/COS3JD0HY2n/?igshid=bc32eocfm3ws

I feel like there's something amiss with kimimaro and sakura's divorce. I am all for your slow burn plot coz i do love some heartbreak and angst. I feel like it's hard to hate kimimaro coz he seems like a sweet guy and you had this quote from a previous artpost about kimi "holding onto some things much longer." So yeah, i'm excited to see things unravel. You're good at plotting something unexpected. *if your answer becomes a little spoiler-ish, it's fine if you don't answer. I understand :)

Just because you don’t love someone anymore doesn’t mean that you didn’t love them in the first place. Not really spoilers, but I just don’t want Kimimaro to be “mean ex-husband”. Because cliche’s are boring.
