I know this not the usual, generally happy, content I post, but, damnit, this year sucks! And what's worse is that it's out of my control. I can control my actions and attitude, but when everyone else is a dumb fucking idiot... well, I can only take so much.
Emotion is a good motivator, too. I was angry to the point of making myself cry, happy, and then cried again all within about 40 minutes before drawing this. Then I belted this out in about another 40 minutes and now, to be honest, I might cry again. Don't worry, though, it's not for any real specific reason. I'm just moody right now and, for some reason, felt like describing it to all of you.

Yeah this has certainly been a rough year. I'm doing what I can, staying indoors and in my own yard and only leaving for necessities, wearing a mask in public, washing my hands... and then I see people in my area crowded into bars or going into small enclosed stores with no mask. It's frustrating, and there's nothing I can really do. I do my part and yet my area's infection rates are going up. Then of course there's protests and looting, which I understand, but it makes be double fearful to go out anywhere, even to get groceries. I'm already prone to depression but it seems like there's really no way to avoid it now, as I can't do any of the things that make me feel better except play games and draw. I think this picture sums up the whole year pretty well so far.
Well, simply by doing those small things, you are helping! Try to continue to do what makes you happy. I think it's extra important right now. I'm doing my best and I'm still kinda losing my mind. Do your best and stay strong! I'm far from the best person to give any kind of advice and I know I'm not on FA or DA often, but I am on Discord! So... I dunno, I if anyone feels like chatting... I'm usually too shy to speak first, but I do love talk to people!
Yeah, it hasn't been cakewalk by any stretch of the phrase. Combined with the Pandemic, how badly the response is generally being handled on all sides, and it being an election year, and then you have all the protests and riots... I feel this.
*Hug* I know that won't do much, but at least I can say you're not alone man. >^<

Honestly, this has been one of the most trash years I've ever experienced, and I've been around a while now... So it's safe to say this feeling is understandably justified...
What's worse, is this is being dragged out by people who simply cannot understand, so we all get to deal with it a lot longer than anyone here wants...
Good news? You're not alone in this feeling. There are many of us that share these sentiments...
keep your friends and allies close. they'll help carry you through this, and I'm sure you will, in turn, do the same for them ^^
