Description of the scene:
Axl being in hot pursuit of the unknown bloody-minded creature. Although he is a kitsune in depicted reality, this part of him in current moment is mirrored only in the window glass behind.

January 15 th, 1987 Van Nuys, 8:30 p.m.
Today we were back in the studio, writing for the new album. I rode in on my Harley feeling all jittery and decided to stop for a small fix... Went in Denny’s on Gower and Sunset (always the classy guy!). I didn’t have a spoon, so I bought a bottle of Pepsi, threw the bottle away, kept the cap and went in their bathroom to shoot up. The shitter was disgusting - black rings and shit stains around the bowl and the unclever graffiti all over the walls... I sat on my motorcycle helmet on the floor and filled the cap with water from the toilet. I dunno why I didn’t fill it from the sink, like any sane person would. I put the bottle cap on the toilet seat in the piss and stains, and poured coke in it. I drew it up in the syringe, washed it out in the shit water, put a little china white in the cap and cooked it, burning my fingers. I had no cottons, so I just drew it up and shot up. The studio was fine after that... I just felt dead.

I hope we all understand it’s not a lure, but a warning.
whats going on with studio ghibli? ive been pretty much under a rock and ive got no idea whats going on,
Here you go!
No will to draw, no will to paint - mid of summer is the most uninspiring time for me. But luckily I have this little sketchbook illustration of wild flowers growing nearby, on my street and on surrounding ones, which I made a month ago. With pink background it looks like some glammy herbarium to me.
I searched for these flowers' names, and turns out pink ones are Malva sylvestris (з милою альтернативною назвою "калачики лісові"), and blue ones are Cichorium intybus.
Alchemical extraction of the Pure Glam
Ingredients:
- Sleaze;
- Fairy Dust;
- Grain of Riot;
- Whiskey. It might seem that every alcohol suits, but if whiskey’s been replacing by Vodka, glam gets more hard rock features, as the look on early G’N’R makes to think.
This collage I made back in 2022 has been rediscovered by a bunch of lovely people here recently, and I thought I might as well reblog it too. I still love it, and I appreciate your warm attention. ♡
Also. After I saw the fourth movie, I made a Neo x Smith art, for that gem contained so much fruitiness it was dripping off the screen. Here it is if anyone's interested:
Cookies need love like everything does.
Ah dear friend I remember the night

Edits are mine, the quote is from "Beauty and the Beast" by Nightwish.
Made this to end the year meaningfully, for not only is that fun, but it's also a manifestation. Bonbora is alive. ♡
Plus totally unrelated XD but I wanna share this wonderful vintage quote I found:
They [fairies] live in nests on the tops of trees; and the mauve ones are boys and the white ones are girls, and the blue ones are just little sillies who are not sure what they are. ♡♡♡

This post I want to dedicate to the earth.
I rarely meet her myself because the city surrounds me.
But I love her. And I know exactly that a lot of people in my country have with her much deeper connection. They work with her putting in this a massive amount of time and efforts. They take care of her and appreciate her - for the fruitfullness and for the fact that she just exists. Earth is if not sacred (or is it) than at least definitely very important. We owe her a lot.
That is why it's very hurtful for me to read some of news which regularly appear since the beginning of russian full scale invasion. I wrote down a few:
· russian troops are digging tranches and building fortifications along the perimeter of Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
· occupants blew up the ammunition near the power unit, and that started a fire (this power plant is biggest in Europe, damage of its explosion would be worse than one of Chornobyl disaster).
· russian missile flew dangerously low above South Ukraine nuclear power plant.
···
· occupants launched a missile strike on the chemical plant and hit a cistern with nitric acid.
· because of fighting there was an ammonia leak. Cloud is moving above the grounds.
· during bombings russia destroyed the only in Ukraine and one of the biggest in Europe gene bank of plants where more than 160 thousands varieties from the whole world were preserved.
· a cholera outbreak started in occupied Mariupol.
···
· occupants shelled a tractor working in the field - driver was seriuosly injured.
· russian troops destroyed by missile strike an elevator which was able to preserve up to 30 thousands tons of grain.
· russia stole more than 400 thousands tons of grain on temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine - this can lead to the famine in some regions and in the number of countries. Now russia's trying to sell the stolen.
This is outrageous disrespect for others' work and for how much to this work the earth had given. This is awful unconcern for environment, nature, soil. This is selfishness which has no boundaries - only to show their illusive power and satisfy the ego - their or their master's - people are ready to cause a destruction scaled like nuclear explosion.
How many more tortures this earth is able to endure?

This is how it would be if I was an OFC in a self-insert fanfic about my beloved rock band with time travelling to their early years.
80s... Imposed toxic masculinity - sometimes it met some resistance, but much more often it was given up to or just embraced to the fullest. Queer rocker boys forced by their money-hungry management, record labels and rock/metal environment in general to act mAnLiER and to suppress their true self. Despite of delightfully androgynous appearances of 80s bands, when it came to their views, values and everyday life decent part of them were toxicly masculine, sexist, misogynistic and/or homophobic.
What a time to live in (I really love this era aesthetically very much though). And what a time for me to interfere at last with my determined, believing and loving slasher soul.
