👀 Blast from the past

#444 | Just a pretty illustrator recommendation tbh

With everything up in cloud storage, there are moments of your life that the internet remembers even when you forget.

This week I resuscitated an old phone last used in 2018 and erased everything "irrelevant" (namely photos of notes exchanged in bulk before semester exams). During this adventurous quest, I found an illustrated GIF I had saved as my phone wallpaper. This has migrated from my old laptop to my old phone to my new laptop.

The person I was in 2018 is not exactly the same person I am in 2024, but some things about her have remained the same. 

Mainly that, for her, peace looks like this:

Created by the artist mochipanko, whose website I stalked the shit out of after the discovery on my phone. Their rainy series is still my favourite after six long years. 

No matter what my goals and priorities are at the moment, it's good to know that rain = being cosy indoors has stayed consistent.

For a change, my Thing for today is not a game, learning tool, or internet tool but a cool artist who might take you down memory lane.
