Xaya's Poiasis
Xaya
I call myself Xaya Emeris 🥔, a student research intern in Open-Ended learning. This is a place to get myself back to the wonders of small scribbles on a notebook, low effort digital art, get started on coding small things, rants on Self-organization science and an excuse to have fancy thoughts, without calling it over thinking.

Part of the November 2025 bear blog carnival - what is in my inventory, an everyday carry prompt. Learn more. The post is also loosely inspired by these 1 videos 2, with some context 3 what I should stop carrying and throw awayA whole load of anxieties will for sure make my backpack a lot lighter.

You listen to a song, it expresses your own frustrations with society, you feel down; those moments becoming days, into weeks, becoming into a certain breaking point. Throughout all this, this one song keeps you moving, and you even end up meeting one of the people from the band performing. You meet them and they...
I don't know who these 10 people who read my blog are or why people read it, but I'd love to hear from you. Yes, you, your random thoughts, the mundane things you found on the blog, weird disagreements. I haven't written enough to have deep thoughts, I agree. In that case, just say hi. If you especially study, do or...
Or how humanities made me more comfortable with science. This post is part of the Bear Blog Carnival Read about the Carnival and how to participate here. The October Bear Blog Carnival's theme is Early Web memories. I wrote this draft a few months, long before the carnival's theme showed up. I saw that a large...
Playing the new "Hollow Knight: almost rage throw your controller away", I came to one of those levels where I don't have the decades of muscle memory to pull off difficult moves on a controller. So I die, in the tens of times at best. The beauty of the game is reminding yourself that getting back up and trying...
I've been wanting to get back into sketching after so many years of apathy, or worse, fear that I will just be bad, and that I was always bad. Well, I am bad. Whatever sketchbooks I did fill up, or digital art I did make, was under the constraints of being bad and trying to bring out my head something. It allowed me...

Hi Xaya, It's been fun having a soap box for a short while, but we end up having so many things to say, but not end up saying them out loud, left there cold in the drafts. I know most things we have to say are dumb, incomplete with just questions and no resolution, needs too much effort than you can afford, or just...
I haven't been sketching for some years now, despite getting laptops and phones to draw on-the-go, their additional purposes for reading blogs, watching videos and getting to all the calendar and email notifications has muddied the urge to start sketching. One piece of software called Pico-8 has made it so I have...
After quitting social media 6 years ago (wow it's been that long), I've been hesitant to post online about anything, my scrappy art, my weird days of personal realizations, the tech I enjoy, the science I am curious about, my feelings on transitioning, none of it. While I still use platforms like Reddit and YouTube...
