Hi. It’s been a while again and I haven’t drawn much for various reasons, but here’s a few Pokémon “AU” pictures. It’s a style I like to try to out sometimes, even if ten characters in a row got a bit too much in the end.

and if i think that as someone who’s almost 20 and knows what actual intrusive thoughts are, i can’t imagine how it must feel being a younger teenager on this site trying to navigate life with mental illness and seeing something that can make you feel like a horror movie villain brought down to the level of “haha monch leaf”.

yall better get educated and knock it off before you start negatively affecting children more than you already do.

i was obsessed with this game in middle school

The transaction was surprisingly pleasant to be honest, I price matched her cans, pointed out when the cat furniture goes on sale, relatively peaceful. I was honestly surprised.

Then it came time to pay. One of her quarters was Canadian and I tell her in these words “Oh they won’t want me to take this one”, and she says like, other places have taken them (their cashiers probably never notice), this is the first time this has happened to her (oh the horror!), it’s money (I went to have a laugh about this incident with my managers and one of them said, not in the U. S. it isn’t) as if any of that will change my mind. I apologize, trying to remain pleasant. I don’t really know what the problem was though because she had an American quarter to switch it out with. So we finish the transaction and as she’s leaving I say “Have a good day”.

Now you might be thinking, “but what if she was having a bad day and this quarter thing didn’t help?” Well before she went out the door she says “I thought I was.” Exfuckascuse-wha?

So….. Me being unable, or rather not allowed, to take your Canadian quarter, was enough to RUIN your DAY?

Your day, no your whole week is ruined because I couldn’t take your Canadian quarter, which could have got me in trouble. Pennies are one thing, but quarters are another. Sorry, I’d rather have a customer mad at me than my manager.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m really glad she’s a huge hit, it’s super exciting to see so many people love the character design and the gameplay, and know that I contributed directly and significantly to the behind-the-scenes engineering that makes it all work. It’s validating.

But it’s also so fucking melancholy to know I did so much work and put in so much time for such a shitty company, run by shitty people, and the reward I got for it was unemployment. 

I threw a lot into this character. I cried at work. I started getting panic attacks, which I’ve never gotten before. I developed persistent heart palpitations from the daily overwhelming stress and had to go to the hospital (this is true, seriously.) I basically dropped all my friends outside of work. My manager (and his manager!) lied to me constantly to keep me working. They said I was doing a great job but to keep it up. Don’t worry, it’s going to turn out great, and it’ll all be worth it in the end – recognition, a raise, probably a promotion in short order. They promised me the world. When she was finally finished, I didn’t even get to go to the release party, they just walked me out. 

I remember a quote from my last day, it sticks out in my mind: “I know you realize this is really hard for me,” my manager said. Yes, in the end, when he awkwardly informed me I didn’t have my dream job anymore – or any job at all – and then stared back at my shell-shocked face, my thousand-yard stare, the only thing he felt was sorry for himself.

She launched with no major bugs and was considered a technical success. Doesn’t matter. Get the fuck out.

Look, I get it. Akali is EXTREMELY my type. It’s obvious how much love and care was put into her development. But it makes me furious to see all the free advertising that Riot is getting from people who I thought would know better.  And now? One of the people who is arguably responsible for all that free advertising? Who’s work is undoubtedly making Riot hundreds of thousands of dollars a day? Who was overworked to the point of near breaking? They get nothing. WORSE than the scant bit of credit that most devs can get in a big company like Riot. They got let go.
