Yo! So 2021 is ending. What a year. There's been a lot of ups and downs in my personal life, but 2021 wasn't the best. I was going to explain myself in more detail, but the simplest way to put it instead is that I struggled this year.

But hey, I survived. A lot of good happened this year too. I became closer with my mom. I live with my best friend. I started building up some healthy habits. Things are paying off. I can't predict the future, but it's feeling bright right now.

So now what? Well, I'm going to be more kind to myself. I had a feeling these past few years that I was losing a sense of my own identity. Now I think I understand what I can do to treat myself more kindly. What's important for others to understand is that not much will be changing on the surface. I'm excited to keep sharing art with everyone, and there will still be ways available for people to support my work.

Thanks for being awesome, folks.
