A reflection on New Year's 2025
10 months ago
Copy/pasting from the description of my art summary post.
2024 was a bit of a mixed bag for me. I got a Steam Deck to start the year off, which was a massive blow to my productivity. However, I don't think I mentioned this anywhere but friends' DMs, but I moved into a new place too. Granted, it's only because I live with family who themselves moved, but it's been exciting (and keeping me busy) nonetheless. My job search hasn't been going well - I'm honestly kinda losing hope that I'll be able to get a better job.
On the online side of things - 2024 was the fifth anniversary of me using the Lutnut215 name! I had a couple of NSFW-focused OCs before 2019, but I didn't really start using them and exploring the inflation and hyper communities more until that year. While my current following isn't that big, I still appreciate you all nonetheless, and I'm happy with where I am.
In terms of art... well, you can see where I've failed. I'm still not much of an artist, and my lack of skill is why my motivation's so shot. I also just have motivation issues in general - if it's not quick and easy dopamine, I have trouble getting up to do it. ADHD sucks. My New Year's resolution is to draw more this year, hopefully I can actually get something done. (Update: as of May, I think this is going pretty well.)
Happy New Year's, everyone. It's been a hell of a ride these past five years, and here's to five more.
