Fuck!! man,

a lot has happened over the past year.
i got a job (that was technically almost two years ago now but thats where most of my energy has gone)
cohost closed up (rip devlogs for body heat and nomf but ive got them backed up so its ok i guess)
had a whole gender revelation happen too, got a new fursona and pronouns out of it. that was super fun

i have Not had the best motivation artistically for a good while, but im on track to be working through that now for various reasons,.

i got REALLY fucking anxious about reading the comments on Nomf after a while so sorry to yall for the lack of responses!
simply my brain said No and that's that. but i'll live
sadly didn't have the brain space to follow up on that one after the jam ended, and i feel like thats gonna be the pattern going forward
only got so much time and energy to spare these days uxu;

i am definitely planning to join in on Strawberry Jam again next month though, so look forward to that ;3c

in the meantime the only place ive been semi regularly posting is Bsky because fuck i guess thats like the only social media thats not either intentionally shit as fuck or too much effort for my lizard bunny brain. also started an FA and Itaku for art so ig i'll link those too,,,

thats where ive been. in a very loose sense of the word "been" its more like i havent "been" for a while tbh,,
as a wise artist once said: Expect less! god im so tired.
