i'm making this post primarily because some of you guys have found my new socials, enough of you that i feel justified in just dropping them for everyone to see:

the point wasn't to hide my identity - i figured people who liked the stuff i make would quickly stumble upon me again, as many of them did - but what can i say? i hate an open secret

the account you're reading this on is still functionally dead; i have no intention of using it for anything except maybe saving art that inspires me. future inquiries here will be ignored, send that shit to my new inboxes

a lotta stuff has happened within the past almost-a-year, so currently i'm just getting back into the swing of things. i have a couple projects in the works, i do pwyw sketches via ko-fi, and i'm not funny or social anymore. do with all that what you will

shoutout to everyone who has kept up with my stuff, or supported me financially, or otherwise been cool to me. this goes for people around both before and after my having moved accounts. you are genuinely too kind

i just can't stand the idea of anyone who knows me or "knows" me having to put up w/ my presence anymore. i doubt i'd be hard to relocate if/when i do make new accounts but i discourage ppl from looking for me. maybe i'll fail at this - that'd be such a me thing to do - but i think it's worth a try

its not that i don't believe anyone will miss me. some family will be sorely upset until they can heal. some friends will be bummed for a little bit when they remember me. some randoms who have followed my stuff for a while will be disappointed i've stopped making things

but eventually ppl stop missing. eventually i'll just be a vague, distant idea that's kind of sort of a bummer to think about but that you get over remembering in a second. eventually everyone's death becomes mundane. hell, maybe someone out there will even be happy that i'm gone. that's a nice thought to me
