January 2025 Update!
10 months ago
Happy New Year! Or, new years...? It's 2025 and the shtick is a little tired- we've been saying this for at least 2025 years now!
First, a huge shout out to my close friends for all of the advice and empathy. Last year could have looked a LOT different without you.
I also want to thank the people who have contributed to me financially. I appreciate your trust in me, I hope my content is to your liking!
I hope this update isn't a huge shock.
2025 Resolutions
The deadline is the end of this year
I need to fix my financials
>Create a Budget
>Stop feeding my commission addiction
(Alternative: Make more art if you want more art)
>Focus on the new jobs & school
>Cut unneeded subscriptions and find alternatives
>Work on the commissions I currently have
>Process as much of my credit card debt as possible
Getting healthier
>Follow up with a nutritionist every 4-8 weeks
>Attend the gym at least once a week consistently
>Limit myself to one alcoholic beverage a week
(Alternative: cut alcohol entirely)
>Eat more carbs and eat fewer fried foods / sugar
>Practice breathing techniques
>Get to a healthy weight (~165lbs)
>Limit my computer time to <6 hours a day
(Alternative: give myself an hour break every 2 hours of computer time)
Get my damn homework done
>Give each class a minimum of an hour each week
>Use my accommodations
>Watch tutorials on subjects I have trouble with
>Finish filing that grievance
>Make friends with classmates and review with them
Note on content:
In terms of my content within the next year, I plan on taking a step back from NSFW and commissions compared to 2024.
This doesn't mean a complete lack of content. It just means I won't feel completely obligated to post something every 2-3 weeks.
Perhaps every 1-2 months, at the most.
Note on commissions:
Story and art commissions for clients are on my to-do list. If I learned one thing about life, you don't f*ck with other people's money.
I will make sure any promised commissions are dealt with, but I will most likely get too busy to open anything else.
At the very least, we'll maintain communication. Thank you for sticking with me, I haven't forgotten about you.
Note on conventions:
In terms of conventions this years, I have plans to attend Megaplex 2025 as returning staff. I do not plan to attend FWA unless someone helps me out financially.
Fur suits are extremely expensive. If I do have some spare money, I would love to get the parts and just work on building a head and tail myself.
Note on communication:
I like to reach out to people and start the conversation. However, I may have trouble finding more time to expand or continue said conversation.
I am still interested in a conversation, but as you'll learn about me, I am extremely mood dependent.
Do not think I'm angry at you or holding a grudge if I haven't chatted in a while. I am probably just extremely busy, physically exhausted, or socially exhausted.
Personal note:
I need to ask myself more often, "what is the legacy I want to leave behind?"
Over the years, I've been embracing the SoftBee title on the internet and even IRL.
I need to be more careful, so I don't necessarily know how I plan to move forward with NSFW content over the next few years.
...What if I grow my presence online and become a minor celebrity? What if people IRL know about the NSFW content I post online?
Will it affect my professional career? Or, will the new generation understand that being NSFW in my free-time is normal?
Regardless, I won't have the luxury to shop around for jobs.
I don't plan on up-and-deleting all of my content randomly. However, this will be something I will have to consider more moving forward.
Regardless, I will see you guys around.
Happy New Year!

That's a pretty hefty list to get through! Be sure to find a good way to pace yourself and make it consistent without leaving things overwhelmingly stacked!
