hi. I like art. love you. [I DON'T DO COMMISSIONS ONLY REQUESTS]

So uh. I never really did an intro soooo

I see a lot of people asking about commissions and I am here to tell you that I don't do them! They stress me out! Sorry but they're Scary. But I do drawing *requests*. Because I like drawing things without any form of pressure to draw them!

Now that's out of the way, hello there! My name is Socrates. But everyone calls me socks.

I am an adult! 19 years old, April 23 2006.

My pronouns are he/him!

I am both a trans man and bisexual!

Things you should know:

I have low to severe functioning autism. Meaning I need help from those outside of my own self. Basically help with my day to day life and for scary situations such as talking to strangers IRL. Or complex decisions such as bank details or that kinda thing. I need others to help me!

That doesn't mean I'm not smart though. I'm mostly slow. I call it rebooting. So if I ever take a while to respond it's probably because I'm thinking about what to say!

I have borderline personality disorder.

I have bipolar disorder. I deal mostly with mood swings one minute ranting about how cute my cat is the next minute crying over how cute my cat is.

I deal with a lot of doctors! Two or more appointments a week! So if I tell you multiple times over a short span of time I can't talk cause I'm going to the doctor's it's not an overused excuse! It's true!

I have severe anxiety. Meaning any communication at all stresses me out. But I still really wanna try to socialize!

I have memory issues.

So if you wanna talk I'm welcome to it. I'm just really, really, shy. And sometimes I'll panic and end conversations out of nowhere. So if you ever wanna talk all I ask is to be understanding and a lil patient.

And if you talk to me long enough I'll grow to trust you! Which means I'll feel more comfortable and calm when talking to you!

About my art:

I love art! But it's hard to do since I have some physical problems. But I do it anyway! I mainly draw things I like or request / challenges I receive. I like to draw my little persona alot because he's simple and easy to draw. I also have a lot of OC's! Ask me about them! I love them all and will be over the moon to share their stories outside of just the art I make of them!

About a little thing about me: I am very scrambled in the head. Which has made multiple versions of 'me's' and I tend to portray the different sides of me through different ways. Some through color coded mes. Some will be different stages in life mes. Some will be imaginary mes. Some will be me from different universes such as the spider verse or Stardew valley.

About my text posts:

Text posts are semi common. It's mostly little ramblings or rants. Or just how I'm feeling. But again I mostly posts art.

If I ever interact with you or your posts:

It means I wanna talk to you but don't know how so I just try to show affection with hearts and sometimes if I'm brave enough a comment or reply. But I still really wanna learn to socialize with you!

Hobbies:

Art, cooking, baking, gardening, sewing, video games.

Lastly:

Ask me stuff! Talk to me if ya want! I am lonely. And I love you! And I'm proud of you! Take care of yourself! You deserve it! Bye! Love you!

Things I like (extra bit):

But I have played or watched others play: stardew valley, undertale, Minecraft, Roblox, terraria, cult of the lamb, overwatch 2, dead by daylight, Skyrim, halo, rocket League, cod black ops 2 zombies, moonlighter, hollow night, sky children of the light, don't starve together, subnautica, subnautica below zero, alot of different Pokemon games, five nights at Freddy's, astroneer, monster hunters, and one of my absolute all time favorites SLIME RANCHER!

That's all bye.

I know I haven't posted in a while and that's because I've been working on stickers! But it's like a huge sticker sheet so it's taking a long time so here's my favorite one so far.

(also if you're able to tell what it is and what game it's from without any hints just know I love you forever)

The watermarks gonna be removed in the final product btw.

I was originally just going to drop a seal and/or puffin gif here as your treat but then I decided that you deserved something special. I don't get many opportunities to tell the people I love and care about how special they are, how much they mean to me, and how much they inspire me. Socks, you are one of those people.

I love having you as a mutual, I love seeing you on the dash. you are a pleasure and an inspiration in all you do and offer. thank you for being here, and for allowing me to be a part of your existence.

and you, specifically, deserve this because you do inspire me. to pursue my art, to love my art, even if it is difficult or I feel it isn't rewarding. you take such wholesome pride in your art and what you love to do, in everything you create, even though you struggle and sometimes find it hard. I love your energy, I love your ocs, I love your content, and I love your dedication to creativity. all of which inspires me to work on my energy, love my ocs, love my content, and take the time and effort to dedicate to my creative pursuits.

anyway, I don't want to talk your ear off. you came for candy after all ! but I did want to tell you how awesome I think you are and how much I appreciate you, your presence, and your art. you were one of the first people who was receptive and just. kind to me after I made the move from the rpc to personal blogging, and I don't think I would have stuck it out or put myself out there if it weren't for you. <3

decided to draw some candy based on my favorite animals - yes some of them are open, which I know is usually indicative of tampering, but I did this mostly cuz I wanted to show the candy you can find within the wrapper.

  • macawlly (macaw lolly, it worked in my head), invocative of those giant rainbow lollypops you can find. this one is tropical fruit flavored, made with ethically sourced tropical fruit juice, dusted with taijin.
  • seally taffy, airy/fluffy white taffy marbled with colors invocative of seal fur patterns. this piece is birthday cake/confetti flavored (because that's one of my favorite flavors lol).
  • puffinettes, something like cookie dough bites. they have a candy / chocolate coating that looks like a puffin head. this package is a new version that also features "puffin tracks", chocolate nuggets with a candy coating that looks like puffin feet.
  • shark bites, jelly candies like jelly beans, but with a crunchy outer coating similar to pop rocks, and a gooey red jelly center. they are meant to a be salty, tart treat, using raspberry flavoring.
  • hyena mane chocolates, chocolate cut in the shape of hyena manes, covered with colorful drizzles of chocolate, filled with crunchy puffed rice and nougat pieces.

anyway. sending you lots of love and good vibes ! thank you for trick or treating, sorry I'm a bit late orz

also if the candy is hard to see with a transparent bg, there's a version with a colored bg below !

You're gonna make me cry broski

I'm so happy I can be a source of inspiration for you

I'm going to be drawing so many animals now

I love you (platonic)

You're too sweet oh my God

Thank you

I know that the goverment trying to legalize spyware on everyone's devices is really bad and all

But I just think it's going to be so funny for the first few minutes when a government agent has to go through mountains of different fandom stuff to get to the information that's actually useful.

And that's not even counting the ungodly amount of adult content bound to be on different people's devices.

Especially with artists. every piece of nsfw art was made by an artist which means they have that on their photo/images library which means they're gonna have to look through all of that before even getting the slightest chance of getting any actual real life photos.

Don't get me wrong this is still really bad but I just think that one specific part of it is gonna be hilarious.

Okay look I know I haven't been posting much, so here you go. A treat.

You guys really seemed to like the last painting I did of rock so I made another painting of rock

Also, lighting is HARD

In case you were curious about how long these take me to paint.

(That's hours not minutes.)

And normally my little cartoony stuff only takes one or two hours. So I would declare painting as x9 harder to do. Especially with the longer I use my hands the worse they get.

I wish platonic marriages were a thing.

Just like "hey I want to spend the rest of my life with you and buy you ridiculously over priced jewelry but I would actually rather die than be anything more than platonic with you."

smirks suspiciously

Why are you being suspicious about it?

Why are you being suspicious about it?!

I saw something along the lines of

"You deserve better is just a way of saying that someone is not worth getting better for"

Which is vastly untrue in my opinion

When I say you deserve better it is taking all the possible futures into account. Even in the best of worlds I wouldn't be able to provide things a regular stable person would. There is literally no changing that unless the medical field somehow got a boost in breakthroughs.

You deserve someone who can be real with you. You deserve someone stable. You deserve Someone you don't have to worry about disappearing one day. You deserve someone that doesn't have to have help with basic things. You deserve someone who won't spiral and question if you're even real. You don't deserve to have these complications in a relationship no matter if it's romantic or platonic.

You do genuinely deserve better not because I'm unwilling to try and be the best for you but because even when I'm at my best it still won't be good enough. And you deserve better than that.
