It's right on over here! I wasn't getting enough external validation on this platform anyway
Nah, it was honestly about time I got one. Feels a little better posting tf stuffs and the like over there, even though I love you all and appreciate your buying into my 2019 BS.

Trolling from Sepulchre
1 min read
Hey folks,
You may have received graphic comments from an individual using account names with "Sepulchre" in them by virtue of commenting on my page and/or my deviations. If you have received these comments from him, block him, report it as spam, and do not contact him. You may wish to file an abuse ticket against him through dA as well. You may also wish to pity him, since he's been at this for a few years by now and does nothing but momentarily inconvenience othes.
It should be obvious that I do not and will never authorize any comments of his to be made on anyones' behalf. I will go through and remove his comments as I find them.
Send me notes with any questions you may have and I'll be happy to answer them.
Cheers,
Couch

Being a big stuffed plush dragon and all
3 min read
Hey.
In the past week you've seen me post two images of me turning into a plushie dragon -- and if you were adventurous you read descriptions wherein I talk as if I'm Rux.
(I am Rux, my brain argues)
Look: when I was in sixth grade, reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader for an English assignment, the scene where Eustace is ensorcelled into dragon shape hit me like a meteor. By ninth grade, I was on this website in 100% FYIAD mode, telling everyone I knew I was a dragon, I knew it had to be that way, etc. before kiki-doodle straightened me out. I'll always be in her debt.
So since then I put on a pretty stern course correction against being a dragon, found happiness as a human dude once more. But, but-- it was still fun pretending to be something else, pony, dragon, whatever. I made it a running joke with myself, the latest iteration being me, CouchCrusader, being the meatsona for a bashful plushie dragon behind the computer screen.
But for a while now, I'd look at Rux and feel jealous (and here's where I throw my love to everyone wrestling with actual body dysphoria, I'm certain what I'm feeling is orders of magnitude weaker). Admitting that I did want a big round belly (made of stuffing!) was not just a terrible ideal to chase for my body's health, but would also have to mean that I never did outgrow that dumb kid from middle school. I'm coming up on thirty years old now, and saying stuff like "I'm a plushie" could only lead to social disaster.
What changed in this past week, I guess -- was realizing that I get to choose how I present this side of me, right? Resolving to eat better and sneak in more exercise to shed this dad bod doesn't mean I still can't genuinely want to sit around as a stuffed dragon all the time. It's doublethink, yes, but with a kicker: finding things to like in diametrically-opposed body types is not hypocritical, and practically speaking the danger of doing so is most likely minimal. No one, that I'd care to associate with at least, is going to care that much about me spiraling off on plushie adventures because we both know I'm just having fun with a personal fantasy.
So, yeah. You're probably gonna see a lot more nonsense from me going forward where I straight-up talk as Rux (I guess that's what the kids call RP?), and I'm not going to care as much about whether people think I'm being delusional or creepy. If I wanted to be either of those, I'd have to put in a lot more work. It's kind of a scary thing, believing that you have a grip on reality when others might not think you do -- but hey, I've got all of 2019 and beyond to continue working with that.
Thanks for reading -- or not reading. I'm just glad all of this is out of my head. Admittedly, I could've just linked you to this Twitter post I made instead that says the same thing, but in meme form. At least I've got all of 2019 and beyond to figure this out, right?

Oh my god, it feels like I'm in middle school again.
Anyhow, welcome to all my fellow Tumblr refugees. I'm kind of incentivized to update this account now -- feel free to uncheck the "deviations" check box if you're following me while I get some art uploaded here.

Thinking about opening up commissions.
1 min read
This totally isn't my idea, by the way. This is all on Alexstrazse's head. He honestly thinks I'd be able to open commissions and have people express interest in them.
I have never laughed so hard in my life.
I've also never had a gun pressed against the back of my head. Someone help me
So, I guess the question is -- if I open up commissions, would you want one from me?
