the vessel

hi hi so my name is twig or rea. im in my 20s, black american and very obsessed with pokemon. i really, really like pokemon, stuffed animals, memes and cartoons. pachirisu is my #1 favorite pokemon; i am The Pachigirl and i stand by this forever, i dont care. but all other Pachirisu fans have my respect and i hope all our Pachirisu take over the world. shoutout to Sejun park for putting Pachirisu on the map because now theres a lot of merch of it. however, i was the pachigirl before that fateful VGC compettion

ive been drawing for a long time now and i was like first gen of tablet babies from my understanding. well i know for sure i spent too much time online as a an abused kid with a soft programmable brain

im an artist. i am very passionate about art, even when in art slumps and when i try hiding myself. art keeps me grounded and is a source of life for me. i love cheesy art, weird art, unapologetically horny art and super dark stomach turning art and art that just exists. all of it, i eat it up! i tend to lean heavy into darker media overall because i find complex themes that happen irl or can hit home very comforting and generally interesting to explore. i use art to explore topics and themes, communicate with others and express myself. i mostly work digitally.

im plural. im pretty open about this now as i feel less like shit about this being my reality. i struggle with an assortment of issues that come with complex tramua. i prefer to keep to myself due to the nature of the world. i tend to explore themes relating to my struggles in my stories, and im pretty open about it on site.

i learned coding just by chance tbh? it started because of DeviantART customization when I was a kiddo. when i got the membership thing or whatever tf! from dA i played with html and css on tumblr, and then toyhouse became a thing and thats where i really dived into coding! once i got banned from toyhouse, i moved to focusing on neocities and have my knowledge from w3schools and studying other code and trial and error. im not very good with tech as much as i love it, but ive taken a command terminal class & learning w the odin project atm. my main love for coding is the fact i can replicate things i like!

as often as i wish to purge everything i make or do to erase trace of me having humanity, i hope for this site to outlive me as long as it can. even if i want to be forgotten, itll be my clumsy pawprint in the sidewalk of the internet

i sparsely use social media due to my social aversion, but theres some contacts to below if you want to interact. overall, im pretty introverted.
