What the fuck am I doing here? LOL
a year ago
So I've been on a semi-permanent hiatus from FA. I found that this site just caused me a lot of grief, from the way in which the staff did not handle cases of harassment and bullying, to feeling as if the warmth of this site kind of died out and it doesn't really speak for the community anymore. I have not stopped being involved in Furry anymore, however. I've been on Twitter, then Bluesky under the handle DuskyArtz and I found these places to be much more fulfilling. Even met my husband and love of my like there
multani82 XD
"So gee, Dusky, that sounds really negative, what's the fuggin point?"
Basically none of those truths have changed for me. This site is still a cesspool, but there are wonderful points of light still here that still use it well. There is still a wonderful amount of talent and beautiful creativity using this clunky old, horribly run site and the one thing this site offers me beyond that is the ability to archive work and keep it in one easily reference-able place.
So that's basically it. I'm not back in the "all's forgiven and I'm crawling back" way. I'm here to create a space again where my work can be found and looked at as a body of work.
In the coming days I'll be uploading a good amount of work to showcase the project I am working on as well as other works I have done of recent. I'll likely not be going to far back to fill in gaps of time anbd focus more on posting what I consider current.
That said, this is not and never will be my home again, so if you are interested in getting ahold of me, I will be checking and more involved in Bluesky duskyartz.bsky.social and for Twitter/X/deadbirdsite DuskyArtz .
I have a Telegram and a Discord under DuskyArtz too, but please understand that contacting me there comes with an assumption that you have a reason i.e. commissions, or a conversation topic you'd like to talk with me privately about. Private communication of any sort that amounts to "Hi" or "Hey" and leaving the ball in my court may get you blocked as it makes me really uncomfortable.
I may be updating a bit more here about myself in the coming days/weeks as a lot about me has changed in the past few years since I stopped being a fly on the wall at this site LOL. But this is enough for now.
BTW: to anyone that watched me before, Dusk is a werewolf now. XD It was a change I'll explain in another post some time.
