yeah yeah ik i haven't been here much, i got postybirb tho so imma start plugging my stuff in here more too!

i should really start posting here again but i keep forgetting

thank you guys so so much! i'm really hoping my FA takes off, but lately i've been thinking about making a semi-return to twitter only to post art and interact with people i can't talk to elsewhere. i really didn't wanna leave them behind, and idk if these other platforms are gonna take off like i've been hoping.

if i do, i'm at least keeping that extension that changes the logo back to the damn bird. and i'm not reinstalling it on mobile (except the tablet from which i draw on) for the sake of well... my sanity. but, i already have a name for myself on there and i really need to keep going so that i can make a better living on art and music like i dream of doing.

i'm gonna give it a week's time and post extra art here and on bluesky, if i don't feel satisfied with how things are going, i'll probably make a limited comeback. FA, tumblr, and bluesky will be my new main platforms still, but if i need to i'll keep twitter up for artwork and stuff as well.

stop calling it 'x', that's exactly what elon wants. twitter is twitter even if right now it's a zombie of its former self.

god every time someone calls it that, a puppy dies. i'm glad i left twitter.

so i'm definitely gonna be on here a lot more now that twitter is *seriously* shitting itself. that, and with a partner of mine being suspended because elon is a piss baby who can't handle being called out on his bullshit, means that i have locked down my twitter accounts. they are now up as archives and i will no longer be using them for the foreseeable future. will i come back someday? maybe, it depends on if twitter improves or if everywhere else i'm at crashes and burns. but for now, i've made a bluesky for nsfw stuff, i'm using my tumblr for sfw stuff and music, and furaffinity is for art in general.

i'll keep this journal pinned and post the links to my new platforms here, i'll see y'all on there, here, and on discord. love you guys!

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH OMG JFJFFJDHDHDJF

i forgot to delete that callout sfdjhsdfg

since twitter is effectively dead now, rebranded and will most likely end up as a haven for... problematic ideologies and stupid people... i've decided to move to furaffinity and discord. twitter will still be used solely for art for now, until i find a platform that substantially works and is populated well. additionally, if tumblr somehow stops kissing apple's ass and lifts its NSFW ban, i will make an alternate tumblr account for it. pfft, android is better anyway.

i know i don't draw enough nor post here enough, and i do need to catch up on comms, i'm doing my best however and although my mental state has been spiraling, lately i've been a bit more... uplifted, so i'm gonna try to build back my stamina and get more stuff done for you guys. and this time i will hold up to it.

i said awhile back i was gonna make a new FA, and i did! here's to hoping it all goes well!
