REUPLOAD JUST IN CASE

sleep apnea is more common in people who are fat.

society decided for some reason that this meant that being fat causes sleep apnea. its often difficult to get referrals for sleep apnea treatment if you are fat, because some PCPs will tell you try losing weight first.

turns out!! having untreated sleep apnea causes weight gain in a not-insignificant number of people. it also makes it fucking impossible for many people to lose weight.

my husband worked out the same amount before he got a cpap as he does now. there have been no major diet changes either. yet he has been losing weight -- and gaining muscle tone -- consistently since he started using a cpap in january.

also, his blood pressure -- which was high, which docs blamed on his weight/diet -- went down significantly within one month of starting cpap treatment, before his weight changed significantly.

ANYWAYS. this is getting long. two final thoughts.

Hey hey!

For people still wondering how I'm doing... it's a mixed bag! But I will mainly be focusing on the status of my commissions and store in this post. :)

First off, I'm happy to announce I'll be hosting a small artist alley July 24-26th during the new online HS convention, Pesterfest! I'll have commissions, customs, and store products available with a couple of adjustments including Beta Troll editions of the Ectobiology Shaker charms and a bonus sticker for the collection (wink wink). Alongside from a couple new additions, ALL my store items are returning for this event! Which brings me to my second announcement...

I'm sure a lot of you have noticed I havent been very active much, and it took an extremely long time to reach this conclusion out of guilt and fear of appearing like I'm abandoning my responsibilities as a commission artist. Thankfully, my clients have been very patient and understanding of my life struggles, and its why its important for me to finally swallow my own pride and admit to taking a lot more than I can reasonably chew.

After this event, my store and commissions will unfortunately be closed til the unforseeable future. I will put my focus on my remaining commissions and orders, and moving forward I would really like to put more focus on my personal art, as well as telling a story I've been sitting on for a long, long time. I am grateful for every single one of my followers over my most active years, and everyone who's still curious to stick around. Without your support I wouldn't be where I am in my art journey today.

A creature I designed for Subnautica 2: the Hycean!

a headcanon that halfway made it into this post is bel fully just reposts random images he finds and calls it a day.

also Orok has two accounts bc he’s a ~public figure~ or whatever. he’s barely pr trained but he tries.

I’m planing on slowly adding more via drops in the future until I’ve got something for every tloz game, and also maybe add items for other things I’m into ^.^

If you know of any art of mine that you’d love as a print feel free to fill out this form to lmk and maybe it’ll be added! I know that the keychains are expensive so a like idk 5 dollar card might be better for some people
