To truth, in truth

I haven’t honestly reflected on how I’ve been feeling in a while. Its hard to write when you don’t know how you feel or when you’re numbing yourself so you don’t have to face things but its unhealthy and it took me a while to admit that this is where I’ve been standing or how I’ve been feeling. So with this, I hope I can write more again because I only seem to be able to write poetry when I’m most honest with myself. 

I also wanted to say thank you, to all of you who continue reading these pages of my heart. May all of you be well and happy.

Much Love, 

Young The Giant: Home of the Strange (2016 Recap) 

Tagged by @latefortevinter to post some of my favorite screenshots from 2016. This is a small part for the DA:I section, there are many others that I love but tumblr has a limit (bruh).

If you guys want to see more recaps let me know :)

My favorite post from 2016 was a Splatoon comic I made, “This Festival Called Life.” The post was kind of long, so please check it out via links:

Part: [1] [2] [3] [4]

Despite the squid theme only being applied to the game late in development, Splatoon’s world addresses many things I wish I could. Marine biology, global man-made catastrophe, and intelligent species succession after the human race. I’m looking forward to the English release of the Ikasu Artbook this year.
