A mood – the Gen X introvert with her moon and Pluto in Libra who loves tigers. People think I’m shy but it’s more like…I just really don’t talk that much, especially if it’s a basic ass conversation. Although I talk to myself a lot when I’m driving to stay present.
What makes me this way…is it my introversion or my planets in my 8th house?
In between rage cleaning the house while listening to Metallica’s Orion on repeat, I stumbled upon a gif with my custom graphics; it was a repeating background of my first tiger tattoo, a scanned drawing of my angel bunny and a rose I traced over a real photo in Photoshop that I would use for Myspace (IYKYK) back in the early 2000’s. I honestly don’t even know how I did this but of course, I animated it. I also looked through the layers and found an old screenshot and a customized contact box, lol.
Customizing my Myspace profile was how I started to learn web design; because I was so obsessed with my profile looking original, I would always tinker with the custom CSS code so I can make it look however I wanted. And then I would make a custom background and someone would steal it. Good times, lol.
I really miss blogging and reading my friends’ thoughts. I miss Roxy and the OTP crew.
Since it is February 2026, I figured I would post these. Found in an old folder of Tumblr images that I pulled down. Vintage, cheesy valentine card hand drawn graphics…I love them.
The reality is whether you like it or not, AI is here to stay and we have to adapt to it, adding it to our workflow. In my case, I’ve been experimenting with Google’s Flow Veo3 because my employer no longer wants to pay for commercials that don’t capture his vision. So I’m here learning how to use the tools so I can do what’s required of me.
Admittedly, I’m actually having fun creating these; am I so vain that I enjoy seeing myself in my creations even though it’s AI generated? That’s where the frame to video feature comes in – you can add a frame (photo) to make your AI generated stuff more original.
So yeah, enjoy my little experiments. I’m going to post more when I get a chance.
This is a 6″x4″ red & black postcard size sticker that I made years ago (2008). I still have a few left.
I got this sticker made when I was still writing “SHERM” as a graffiti artist. I was into deformed figures (like the Super Deformed Gundams) and Japanese tattoo art at the time and so created these characters.
