I'm changing my handle!

This feels weird because I've been using this one on various sites since... middle school, geez, but I've been growing increasingly uncomfortable with it because 1) while I am mostly a woman, it's not the first thing I want people to know about me online and 2) I don't love having my handle be a reference to a Christian parable when I am not and never have been Christian.

(I picked it as a reference to a Michelle Shocked song, which uses said parable to talk about misogynist double standards and women taking all the blame for men's misdeeds, but still.)

But Prosper is a name I've been using for various things for a while (when my folks were writing up lists of potential things to name me, it was the only one on both boy and girl lists), my initials remain PD, and I like the internal contradiction and implication of cycles. Feels like the Death card indicating change. So I'm pleased with it.

Y'all can still call me Alice or Prod or PD if you like, but Prosper is also on the list of my names now and it's the one I'll introduce myself with.

since I posted that TADC animatic, my subscriber count on yt just-over-doubled (went from 7 to 15)

but I still don’t have a single comment on it here or there

and obviously nobody owes me comments or whatever but it’s just kinda
