So I just picked up drawing last night again after not drawing for more than 15 years and it was a great relaxing activity for me. Now these aren’t the best since pen is very unforgiving and hard to shade with but I’m still pretty happy with them. What do you think? Show me some of your artwork!!!

When I first joined TWS I was just looking for something to pass a little bit of time. What I found was a bunch of really cool people who could joke with each other and just have fun chatting. The topics were great and pub chat was always active with actual conversations. My favorite thing since joining the TWS community has been the awesome friends I have met such as @willoww , @ragnar , @black_beetle , @lucifer_ , @boots22 and many more. They are always there when I’m down and are always good for a good meme and a great laugh. However lately I noticed so much more negativity on TWS and it’s making it harder and harder to log back in. Pub chat is filled with people bashing each and being down right nasty to one another. I personally don’t understand the point of people trolling and bullying people by using their names in pub chat and bashing them. There’s no need for that kind of stuff. The quality and frequency of posts has gone down hill bad. Where there used to be good posts filled with thoughtful responses, there is now just “add on SC for nudes” “I’m just going to kms” and “12 yo looking for bf/gf”. Now I understand this is the internet and you will never fully escape these things but I strongly feel that as a community we can improve this site and get it back to where it used to be.

Wow what an eventful couple of days on TWS. So much hate and drama on here even more than usual. I’m just curious what does one actually achieve by posting shit about other users. I’ve seen way to many personal attacks on people from people that are simply butthurt. If you don’t like someone don’t talk to them, it’s not rocket science. No one is benefiting from these personal attacks as they are just dividing this site into separate “sides” in a TWS war that doesn’t need to happen. So quit acting like children and just fucking avoid people you don’t like. Spread love not hate.

What is a friend? A friend is someone who’s always there for you. Someone who would do anything for you to help you out. Someone who can make you laugh when your sad and pick you up when you’re down. And sometimes those friends become more like family than friends and everyone could use more friends like that.
Sometimes when your feeling down and you need to talk to someone you can’t find the words to say. You don’t want to drag others down with you. At least in my personal situation it’s what I always resort to. I don’t mean to, I never try to hurt friends by shutting them out. It’s just what I do.
Take it from me it’s not worth it to shut friends out. They don’t want to be left out, they want to help you just like you would for them.
So never cut friends out of your struggles. Open up and don’t be afraid to ask for help. It doesn’t make you weak for needing help, it makes you strong for having the courage to.
I’ve been through a lot lately and I’ve shut a lot of people out and lost some good friends because of it. So to anyone who has been hurt by me shutting them out I apologize. And just know how much I appreciate you all.

I haven’t posted in awhile now but have seen more and more depressed and mean shit in this world so let’s spread some love on TWS. It amazing what a single compliment can make. It can turn around someone’s bad day. So I want everyone to compliment at least one person on TWS and if you have been complimented then turn around and compliment someone else. Everyone deserves some love and happiness.
I’ll start off with a few people........
@willoww you are the best bestie a guy could ask for. You are always there for me and always try to pick me up when I’m down. You are AMAZING!!!
@RAGNAR you are my brother from another mother. You are always checking in on me to make sure life’s good and I truly appreciate it.
@Black_Beetle you are a good friend and you seem to always have a shining personality
@lucifer_ you are awesome. You always have such good advice and wisdom about what seems like every situation.
@BOOTS22 you are a cool kid who seems to have that drive to push through anything. You are definitely going places in life.
Alright your turn!!!!!!!!

Alright so lately I’ve been down
And now it’s time to turn that shit around
I’m tired of this life of the depressed
Complaining that everything’s a mess
Because I control my own destiny
No matter what anyone thinks of me
My situation has been tough
But I’ve finally had enough
I was knocked down pretty hard
When the world caught me off guard
It threw everything it had at me
But the old me is coming back
Just wait and you’ll see
I’ll come back stronger than ever
Because I’ll never surrender
To this world which tried to break me down
Just know I’m taking back my crown
Because my life is my kingdom
And I’ll never again be depressions victim

A little something I wrote......I haven’t written in years and was inspired by @US-poet to start again

Sometimes life just hits way to hard
It leaves you broken and battered
And shattered and scarred
When things continue to pile
It overwhelms after awhile
When does the pain stop, does it ever truly
Or does it continue beating you down ever so cruelly
When you need to find a crutch just to make it through the day
And everything around you begins to blend to grey
So here’s to sleep which feels less and less like a means to refresh
And more like a pathetic attempt to escape the life of the depressed

@emilyyyyyy there are a lot of cool people on here but I would say @willoww @ragnar @bushmurry @KorgLife17 @Black_Beetle

@willoww I absolutely hate fake ass people. Like people that act like they are great friends of yours but stab you in the back every time you turn around. It drives me nuts, if you have a problem with me say it to my face.

To women everywhere.......
You.Are.Amazing.
As. you. are.
Stronger than you know.
More beautiful than you think.
Worthier than you believe.
More loved than you can ever imagine.
Passionate about making a difference.
Fiery when protecting those you love.
Learning. Growing. Not alone.
Warm. Giving. Generous.
Quirky. Beautiful. Funny. Smart.
Flawed. Whole. Scared. Brave.
And so, so, so.much.more.
Be Strong. Be Confident. Be You
Happy Women’s Day
@willoww , @Black_Beetle , @miracle7 , @Kat_15 , @cutie-cat , @tehkotak , @Sammy , @Emilyyyyyy , @Depressed-Salad , @InSaNiTy-AsHy and everyone else I may have forgotten

@Willow That shit hits way deep. You can feel nothing but pure emotion when you read it. Unfortunately it’s a part of life that never goes away because it’s true what they say. “All good things must come to an end”. But that doesn’t mean your happiness has to go with it. You can always push through the tough times and find new reasons to be happy

@Willow just because I was gone for forever does not mean I can’t still find a good gif

@Willow don’t start fights your little nuggets can’t handle.

@Lord-Rorschach How has there not been a more fitting grand entrance of chicken nuggets and caprisuns for the tws royalty (or royal pain, same thing right? Lol jk) that is @Willow she is back so I guess it’s time to party

@TheGoldenMole i have zero talents I am a talentless being of human

@Div we should be setting up another community clean up for spring after the snow melts. As soon as we get it set up I’ll send the link

@Div I volunteer locally to help at soup kitchens and to clean up the community whenever I can. Our football team actually started a couple annual events in which we go into the community and help out, whether it be cleaning up the streets or helping with a local reconstruction project of a local business.

@Karina-Kara I’m actually sorry that you feel this way. Maybe it’s because I’m older than most on this site, but you learn that some problems are not caused or fixed by a single group of people. Therefore pointing the finger and saying things like “I didn’t cause it so I shouldn’t fix it” is part of our worlds problems. Some problems are better solved if we work together and unite as one to solve them, not just push them aside and avoid the frustration of having your hard work undone. Because someday you will see fruition for all your hard work and even if you don’t just know that plenty of people eventually will

@cjko Life has been treating me well as of late. I have fought past some recent struggles in life but who hasn’t lol. Things are definitely on the uprise now

@brettishere I am deeply sorry to do this to you (no I’m not) but I side with no one and will fight you all for ownership of this site
