Life news and such (it ain't easy being purple)
🕑 Added 2022-08-01 18:36:18 +0000 UTCHey there, it's been painfully quiet over here hasn't it? :'D
As the title says this is an update post, cuz it's been so quiet i feel i need to justify the sudden lack of art to you guys. Simplest way to put it is life being life, as in extremely hectic and unpredictable and really pushing my mental limits here! 8)
If you know you know, but to be very honest, it has not been an easy last two? Three?? months for me. the silliest part of this mess is the 5 pups growing and threatening to eat the house, with mostly me to ensure they don't eat something they shouldn't, while also keeping the place clean, usually keeping me busy for at least 6 hours of the day. I now know that i certainly don't want kids lol
But silliness and puppies aside, the family has been.. a little bit unstable. The grandparents are being bratty and coming and going from this house because they hate each other and can't be in the same place. The aunt is being her abusive self and trying to control everyone around her (despite being in a whole other country), forcing my grandparents (who have blood pressure issues) to "deal and get along" and dumping all the problems on my mom, who can barely work now thanks to this mess. My new born niece had a rough birth, and we had to help my bro pay the extra medical bills, leaving me a lil bit broke. Mom on the other hand is very much broke, meaning that the pressure is on my income, all while she vents her own stress on me by being passive aggressive and hypocritical cuz i'm the only sucker that can't leave this house :)
I am
a bit tired?
Might self destroy and die. Almost did a couple times.
But i won't! I got lizards to draw.
I just hope this explains why i have been so quiet both here and at discord, it hasn't been easy and all i can do is keep it together and see what viable solution i can follow through to make life less stressful in some way. I've been heavily considering moving, but with the lack of money and mass amount of other money draining things piling up, i fear this won't be as easy as it sounds, certainly not with the current mental state i'm in. Either way, i'm considering putting the patreon requests on pause and open the commission queue line instead, maybe make a special offer? I'm not sure yet, i'll make an official post for this if i go with it.
I wish i could tell you this next month will be more active, but i really don't wanna promise anything i don't have the capacity to stress over promises right now. I'll just do what i can, and let you guys know how it's going. Expect last month's requests soon at least.
Anyway that's a lot of whining. That's all for now, see ya.
