It's 2024. Life is short and beautiful, spring is nigh with mountains and forests reawakened all garbed in verdant hues. Smell flowers instead of letting the internet make you angry or afraid. Focus on what you can control and don't worry about what you can't. In paraphrasing Bertrand Russell:

Self-worth isn't measured against others and the opinions of strangers are meaningless.
Seeking acclaim is normal but be selective of whom you seek admiration from.
Name your fears. Pessimism offers no benefits, so be optimistic and realistic.
Don't feel guilty when good things happen, enjoy them.
Injustice is inevitable, but reject victimhood and grievance.

Bluesky is ~here~ as birdsite implodes. I might shift Patreon to Subscribestar later this year since I'm not keen on the +18 artist policy; privacy is a luxury.
I'll attempt to finish another fursuit in upcoming months, working with vinyl is hard.
When I wrap up this phase of my life I'll see about attending more cons like ANE, FWA, and BLFC.
Hope you're all doing well :) if there's anything you want to see more of lmk in the comments.
