Here’s some doodles and casual for a character of mine. His name’s Idan Martins and he “officially” turned 16 on the 25th of April, which would be the 1st year anniversary mark of his existence!
Initially, Idan was going to just be a fun OC of mine for a Homestuck Fansession I was doing, but it appears I’ve had more planned for him.
yo... dark brown eyes appreciation post
My brother, Austin, has been diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer.
Please donate to his support fund!
I'd really appreciate if you donated to help a trans black Latino fighting a serious diagnosis.
My brother has been the most positive influence on my life!
Were it not for my brother I would not be the Cristaly/shrekfucker/bowserfucker/Nintendette you know today at all!
He introduced me to video games and anime, like many older siblings have. His laughter is contagious. And so is his sense of humor! I got my love for comedy, pranks and being mischievous from him.
He taught me how to have fun, which I needed as an uptight elementary school student. My fondest childhood memories are the summers we spent together playing pretend about Inuyasha and super smash brothers.
He is also very brave and resilient! He set off on his own super young and funded his own transition. Seeing him work so hard to be independent definitely influenced me positively. And having an older queer trans sibling helped give me the courage to explore my sexuality and meet my wife!
I can text him about anything and he was a huge support for my wife during her transition.
He means a lot to me and to so many other people.
Thanks for reading :)
When I ask what gives him an ego boost, given that he’s not driven by money or fame, he is so baffled by the idea of his ego needing a boost that he is silent for a full 28 seconds before finally answering, “The work.” [Hadley Freeman, The Guardian]

Hey guys, so just as a heads up, I don’t think that highlighting your already made notes is that effective unless it’s for aesthetic. However for many subjects like English classes or humanities, you are often given a bulk amount of readings and I believe that highlighting not only helps you digest the content but it also makes note taking easier afterwards. Though some people find it hard to figure out what they need to be highlighting so I’ve come up with a few ideas.
Terms often come into play when digesting a lot of textbook readings where ideas are being explained to you and often you will want this definition to be readily available when revising too so its good to highlight these when you come across them.
Key concepts can be really good to highlight when trying to understand scientific concepts within research articles or when reading persuasive texts as you can relate the material back to your core unit of work. Alternatively you can use concept to highlight the main idea of paragraphs or chapters to give you a quick reference of summary when studying.
I find examples to come particularly handy in studies which are applied to everyday situations, for example a law textbook may discuss a concept and give an applicable example which I would then highlight. Or in math you may highlight an example problem to help you if you get stuck later.
This highlighter was a godsend in my last exams, especially for history because I’d be reading so many historians and articles and when it came to writing essays it would only take me seconds to find a good reinforcing quote as I’d been highlighting them all along. Or even in English you can highlight quotes from reviews or scholars to be used to back up your argument.
This one is mainly for English and literature studies because when analysing devices and giving examples of these it helps when they are already highlighted. It’s all about studying smarter not harder and getting things done efficiently so this step really has helped me out.
Again another more humanities point as you often have to create a mental catalogue of people involved and the context of situations to understand the severity of moments in history. Though in science and other subjects it’s always good to know what pages are talking about what professors or scholars or historical figures.
Finally, in many subjects you are expected to produce a mental timeline of events especially in history and it becomes confusing to pinpoint events and dates together so this step helps to take the labour out of that situation.
I hope this helps you guys out. I also like to just make a key for my highlighting that I use for a bookmark, that way I can constantly refer to it. Message me if you have any ideas or things you want me to post about.
