Afkenjoyer - Hammie

It can get really baffling and even painful when you're given the "silent treatment" while you have absolutely no idea what you did wrong. At least let the person know you're upset and need some time to cool off and gather your thoughts, and that you will speak with them later.

When you do eventually communicate, kindly express yourself without being accusatory or making generalizations about the other person's behavior, bc it can lead to defensiveness and conflict.

Say something like, "I feel overwhelmed when I'm left to do these things on my own. I need help." instead of: "You never help out, and you always leave everything for me to do!"

"I" statements are a way to express your feelings and needs without blaming or criticizing the other person. They typically follow this structure:

"I feel [emotion] when [specific situation] because [reason]."

"I need [specific need or request]."

☆ Remember: People can't read minds. You have to communicate.

Since it's the month of May, here are some of my MerMay art. ◉⁠‿⁠◉

My first Mer creation

Btw, these artworks were originally posted on Cara (my comfort art site♡) during the '23 MerMay event there. I asked one of the admins if it's okay for me to submit unconventional-looking merfolks, and they said yes. They actually liked my beloved abominations. lol

"Deep Sea Queen"

The name is just a reference to Deep Sea King from One Punch Man. I just wanted to call her DSQ, bc she's a deep sea creature and a queen. 💅😂 I also kinda referenced an angler fish (for that head-arm extension thingy), gold fish (for the body), and one of my older sisters (for the long flowy hair). ♡ lol

"Pardon May"

Fun fact: Squids have tentacles but octopuses don't. Both have 8 arms (not tentacles!), but squids also have two longer tentacles (appendages that only have suctions at the end of limb) used to catch fish and shrimp in open-ocean waters. Octopuses have 8 appendages while squids have 10 (8 arms and 2 tentacles).

"Safe Mother"

I just literally combined two prompts: "safe" and "mother." (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

"Heye"

Its name is pronounced like the greeting "Hi" but the 'i" is replaced with "eye" for obvious reasons. Also, I just thought of an octopus, a jellyfish, thalassophobia and Mike Wazowski when I drew this. lol

"Tiptoe Thru the Tulips"

I named them Speckle and Jawrothy. ♡

🎶song inspiration 🎶

"Mr. Dapper"

I just wanted to draw a fine gentlemer. The prompt was red, btw. (It may not be obvious, so I'd like to point out that his earring is a golden fish hook.🪝🎣)

"Footima, the Sea Snail(?)"

The prompt was friend. So, here's my dear friend, Footima. 🥰😂

yes, kindness. Imma be kind to myself first by not seeing the mf who kept hurting me. letting go of toxic people will lead me to a better way

"Mercy guides me as I fight with valor."
