Here I am, literally wasting my time with this journal, again.

I have decided to remove all works made by myself that involve my real life name. Back then, I was honestly too ignorant--let alone probably stupid--to not actually associate my real name with the content I create on a completely different alias--especially of which are clearly pornographic. I just didn't think much of it, to be quite honest with you. It was due to the fact that I was taught to sign and date my artwork every time I finished drawing something. Little did I realise that the internet should not know your personally identifiable information, even though the only things that were probably left out to the public were--again--my name and surname.

Actually dropping my name and surname on my artwork of my own fictional characters ended up with a select few people stalking me on the internet--even finding my personal Facebook account with the intent to harass me. However, the last incident involving that was roughly anywhere between five to seven years ago, therefore the incidence of being stalked or harassed in some way was very low, for me.

I do know that I pretty much have not done much in the way of posting my art on here--or wherever I had been. Even my presence on Discord as far as my art goes is extremely minimal, as I stated on my previous journal post: my drive and passion for art is at an all-time low, especially when my energy is focused on other things. I still do see improvement where I can, however.

Though, I don't know whether to keep my longtime alias as JoyoPrower, or to change it to at least one of my newer aliases, at least as far as both InkBunny (which I also use that site for the sake of viewing pornographic artwork, just like how I use this website) and this website are concerned.

And as much as the tendency is still arising: I absolutely refuse to return to DeviantART, even though nobody really asked for my opinion on the matter. That still stays whether or not people agree with it. I have no interest in creating a new account there, and I have no interest in potentially becoming entangled by such quarrels between the site's staff, and the users I choose to interact with--as much as such a notable incident that I still remember, but had since long gotten over it, was mostly due to my intervention on the matter.

I also have no interest in having issues with my art being redistributed in any sort of manner, and being entangled with the (to put it bluntly) "art-stealing drama" that somehow manages to continue plaguing that site in general, even though in reality, the site, itself, allows literally everybody to download and redistribute their artwork elsewhere.

So as you probably know: I had been laying low ever since I decided to minimise my influence on social media websites, due to the fact that it did nothing but cause undue stress and adversely affect my psyche--I only use Discord with people I have since met online, while using (clearly) Facebook for people I only met in person.
