Hey!

I'm terrible at writing these.

So lately my financial status has officially reached the "collapsed" status, with my employment barely being able to keep up with the necessities of everyday life. And this has finally made me realize just how much money I have burned on commissions... quite the expensive addiction!

But marking with this journal, I am *done.*

Until I regain complete financial stability in some magical way, I am going to stop commissioning people to get art. It pains me to make this choice, considering the immense love I have for my bull, but alas I think this is still the most responsible choice I can do.

My own commissions will still exist. Blender models (currently for friends/acquintances for now), speed render comms (like last time), and possibly animations (very unlikely to go public yet.)

This dosh, as well as the Ko Fi donations I get will go straight into my savings.

I kinda feel like as if I am doing a sort of intervention to myself with this, and if that is the case, then it is the right thing to do.

Until my financial state imrpoves to the point where it was... roughly 30 days ago, I'll stand by this vow. I'll spare the political details, or my family details, it's best fit to talk about next to a drink, not screamed into the void!

I'm not gonna disappear, I am alive and (kinda) well, and this journal serves a landmark dedicated to stopping this addiction! Or at least pause it for a year or so. FOMO be damned.
