Really, nothing, I’m just a teenager that has too many mental illnesses. I can’t draw (and can’t seem to be able to even learn how to do it) nor anything cool I could show off for.

    Then, don’t talk about yourself. Talk about something else. Something you like. If you can’t draw, don’t make It a flaw but a feature. You can create a blog, delete it, try again…There is only a rule: enjoy.

      I’m curious about the feature thing. Can you explain it better?

        Bad drawing can be funny. Take Spooder-man, Dolan Duck, and all the rage comics, for example. Another example is Reddit user Shittywatercolor, whose style evolved over time and became popular for his drawings in response to comments. But you don’t have to do something just to become popular either.

        We are surrounded by AIs and people who only do what is trending. Even though they try to limit it, the internet is a place where you can do what you like without restrictions. And if you make a mistake, you just have to fix it to improve.

          The issue is: My art style isn’t “funny”, it looks more like a crappy anime copy.

    1: Do something at least mildly interesting.

    2: Blog about it.

    Step 1 can be tricky with no inspiration, but I’m sure you can come up with something.

    • Bicycle around where you live and take pictures of anything interesting you see. Post the pictures.

    • Collect weird pebbles and then research them to find out exactly what kind of rock they’re made of, and then post about it.

    • Get into building model rockets and see how high you can get one to go; post updates on your successes, failures, and the process of building your next rocket.

    • Learn to code at least a little bit, then start contributing to open source projects, then you can post about them and what you’ve done to improve them.

    • Write horny fanfics about your favorite video game or TV show. Bonus points if you keep making characters gay who weren’t canonically gay.

    • Get involved with a local charity, then post about what you’re doing there and how you’re making the world better.

    • Get into magnet fishing and post about what you manage to pull out of lakes and rivers.

    • Try out various products and then start posting reviews about them. Maybe if it catches on, businesses will start sending you free stuff to review.

    • Visit local cemeteries, especially older ones, note down some names, then head to your library to research them as much as possible. (Librarians will be happy to point you toward useful resources for this kind of research.) Make blog posts detailing everything you were able to find out about those people.

    • Start ranking celebrities from most attractive to least attractive, and regularly post updated tier lists.

    That’s 10 ideas to start with, but don’t let me tell you what to do. There’s a whole world out there full of interesting stuff and interesting things to do. Pick something that appeals to you and make a blog about it.
