Awkward and Weird (she/her)

@geisttheawkwardnerd

Oh, hey there! Welcome to my blog! I'm just a weird nerd who loves animation, video games, animals, food, music, and drawing. Here you'll find my art (OCs included!), random blabbering from my wonderfully weird little mind, as well as some other stuff. Enjoy! Instagram: geisttheawkwardnerd Art Blog: geistsartstash

Ok, let's do a proper introduction/promo post

Hi, I'm Abby/Geist! (she/her) I'm an amateur comic artist and illustrator who wants to put myself out there by doing what I love. I am a traditional artist at heart, but most of my illustration work nowadays is inked and colored digitally.

My media interests are:

• Crash Bandicoot

• RPGMaker games

• X-Men

• The Amazing Digital Circus

• Pokemon

• Studio Ghibli

• Touhou

• And many, many more!

Starting this year, I'm going to try and be more consistent on social media; I'm gonna be active around 7:30-8:30 PM EST every/every other night. You can find me on the accounts listed below!

My commissions are currently closed for updating my art, but they will open back up by the end of January, so keep an eye out!

And with that, I hope to start being more consistent and grow my career as an artist this year! Things will change if/when I get a proper job, so keep an eye out for that! Happy 2024!

EDIT 1: Social Media time's been changed, working on an earlier/healthier daily schedule.

EDIT 2: I'll be showing up earlier on certain days because of a big schedule change in which I get out late and I don't wanna go to bed too late!

EDIT 3: And now we're at the 7:30 to 8:30 schedule!

Tawfik reached out to me to help spread his fundraiser. He is a Palestinian engineering student urgently raising money to evacuate he and his family from Gaza. He has only raised $3,409 out of his $40,000 goal so far! Please donate and share, and if you can't donate, please still share!

From Tawfik's GFM:

Urgent appeal: Escaping devastation in Gaza - saving a family's hope

Dear merciful souls,

I am Tawfik satoom an engineer, I live in Gaza. I was completing my studies, but unfortunately the unimaginable happened. The war came and took everything from me and my family. I extend my hand to you from the depths of despair that we feel while we are in Gaza in the midst of war. Memories of a life that was once peaceful, full of love and security have been stripped away by the merciless horrors of war. Not only are my possessions lying in ruins, but the pain, agony and humiliation inflicted upon us are beyond the reach of mere words.

Our journey has become a haunting odyssey, and the burden of rebuilding our lives and escaping the darkness prevailing in this war-torn land is insurmountable. As ordinary civilians not affiliated with the conflict, my family and I yearn to...

To be free from this nightmare.

The war destroyed our house, turning it into rubble, and now we find ourselves living in a tent. Life has restricted us greatly, and our only hope is to seek help in escaping this nightmare and making a path towards a decent life.

Now! We only had a tent left.

The harsh truth is that the cost of escaping is staggering - $9,000 per person. For those of us desperately seeking refuge, this amount represents an overwhelming barrier, threatening to imprison us in this suffering.

In our quest for safety and a semblance of normalcy, I turn to you, my fellow humans, for help. Every contribution, whether big or small, is a lifeline that can pull us out of the abyss. Join us in breaking the chains that bind us to this torment.

Be a beacon of hope for Tawfik Satoom and his family. Your support is not just a financial contribution. It is a lifeline to freedom, security and a future free from the horrors of war.

We will use this money to take additional measures to enter Egypt and escape the war.

With the weight of necessity in my heart,

We deserve to live. Tawfik Satoom

eSims for Gaza is facing constant eSim shortages.

They get over a thousand requests for connection a day, but their email inbox is regularly sitting at 300-500 eSims. With the bombardment of Rafah and continual internet blackouts, the need for more eSims is particularly urgent.

Even if you have already sent an eSim or donated to an eSim donation drive, there is more you can do. The team is calling for people to campaign in their communities to help spread the word about eSims and encourage donations.

You can help by printing out posters and putting them up in local businesses, on telephone poles and notice boards, or wherever people are likely to see them.

[ID: Poster headed “eSIMs for Gaza” with an illustration of a red poppy, a QR code, and a link to tinyurl.com/gaza-esims; copy reads “Sending eSIMs is an immediate, concrete way to help Gazans on the ground. Scan below to learn how you can get involved.” End ID]

Or make your own poster, pamphlet, or protest sign with one of these QR codes:

i used this to make some posters at my college's makerspace today! :D

not nearly enough people are fuming about the cass review. do you understand the eventual implications? trans people in the uk will be considered children up until the age of 25, and denied HRT/surgery/even basic measures like legal name change and social transition. all owing to a biased and largely unscientific study. you know what “treatment” for gender dysphoria is recommended by the review instead? conversion therapy.

this will kill people and they know it, because they prefer us dead and out of sight. the government, the NHS and even the opposition have made this clear again and again. a twenty-five year old can have sex, get married have children, join the military, earn a living, be halfway up the corporate ladder or highly successful in their chosen career field by that age, but they can’t transition under NHS rules. this is a death sentence for trans teenagers and they are going ahead with it. it’s trans genocide, same as across the pond.

i’m so afraid for my trans siblings and our futures. i’m so scared for myself. what are we to do if not even the party that is supposed to be on the “left” gives a shit about our safety and mental health as long as they get voted in? labour have become tories with a red coat of paint. it all feels hopeless

I'm sure Dungeon Meshi is fun but every single screenshot of it looks like this to me:

Marcielle: I literally scream I scream all the time no matter if a situation calls for it or not see watch this AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Liaos: You have to cut the creature meat against the grain you'll make the meat too tender you see griffin meat was popular in 345 bce before they invented the pitchfork and before they would only eat the knee of this creature so in order to preserve it I will strip like the ancients in 345 bce to eat this heavenly piece of meat

Chucktick or whatever his name is: Honest to god I hope you kill yourself

Senshi: You can't be saying that white baby

Scheduled this since I'm watching the first X-Men movie tonight (and the second tomorrow heehee), but here's my Nightcrawler figure! He's a bit more detailed than my other figures (and larger than most, Tropy's taller) since I wanted this one to be special, I even added some metallic paint and gloss varnish to his eyes!

Also! over the past month I've been buying fabric swatches for the BAMF doll that I plan on making (hopefully in time for Fan Expo), and I've determined which fabrics I'm gonna buy so I'm gonna start drafting the pattern soon! (hopefully)
