End of 2020, beginning of ???
We did it, guys. We made it. We survived 2020.
I gave Twitter an honest try this year, and decided it wasn't for me. It's a deeply unhappy place that amplifies the worst qualities in all of us in order to sell our eyeballs to advertisers. It's not the kind of stress or surveillance that I want in my life. I'm posting more on Mastodon now, which is much smaller and much friendlier. It does not have the advertising impetus as the guiding content selector.

I never thought I'd say this, but I really miss Tumblr. The art community there was great, despite all the other problems the site had. I don't fit into a single neat bucket as a content creator, so these big social sites don't really know what to do with me or my content. As a result, nobody ends up seeing it. It's a creatively lonely place to be in.
The best way to see my latest and greatest (lol) content is on my Telegram channel. I post WIPs, sketches, and lots and lots of food photos that don't get posted here. I am on Telegram basically all of the time. It's the best way to get in contact with me.
The solstice has passed, and the darkest part of 2020 is over. See you next year!

I have closed my Tumblr account due to the impending adult content ban. I will be lurking but no longer updating regularly, if at all. Sad to see the site go, but Verizon has been very clear that they won't want an unprofitable boat anchor to deal with. I think this is a move to justify closing the site due to low traffic after everyone leaves. That way it doesn't look like the big bad megacorp telecom company is taking away peoples' free speech glitter party. I hope I can find everyone wherever they go.
how to contact me, telegram art channel

There will occasionally be NSFW there, so the channel might not be for you if you don't want to see that sort of thing.
ALSO I'm not logged into DA a ton, so I might not see messages, etc. in a timely manner. Telegram is the best way to get a hold of me! Discord is 2nd, and email is third.
