Hey everyone. I want to deeply apologize for my long absence ever since February. Truth is, I have been drawing as well as working with Blender, and had been meaning to upload a variety of pieces to my gallery since then. I've had commissions I had completed and wanted to post among other things all sitting on a PostyBirb backburner, but had never got around to posting them or having the drive to even do so. Lately I feel like I've been struggling a lot emotionally, feeling directionless and with no ideas for anything to create, or a drive to create whatever ideas I can scrounge up. It's gotten to a point where I feel like I don't know what I want to do, and I've ultimately been thinking that maybe it's high time I hit the road and retire.

Whether this means from FurAffinity or the furry fandom as a whole is unknown to me. A lot of art I have managed to do I've mostly just kept to Discord servers and Discord DMs, and that's fine, but even that's beginning to lose its luster. As well, I feel like I'm finding less and less joy in interacting with others online and feel I'd much rather be outside. Being online has just been emotionally exhausting, and almost feels like an addiction to something harmful that I can't break. Whether it's BlueSky or Discord, I just want to break off from it, or at least prune out the parts that I feel are actively hurting me, but that's the other problem because some of said parts are also spaces I do enjoy being in, to the point where it's hard to let go.

I don't know, I'm still thinking on things. Ultimately I feel like I just need an outlet to let these feelings out.

EDIT: I'm not retiring. Just needed to let my thoughts out.
