I haven't had an opportunity to check my guestbook until now but LOL yes I was at TFS, I periodically attend local cons. xd I don't know what my schedule is next year but you can email if you want to meet up next year, I love meeting mutuals IRL!
As of 5 hours ago, I'm home from Texas Furry Siesta. First con I got a room at, I'll write about it later. Did you see Capy?

I'm debating on joining Artfight this year. I'm going to see how I feel after TFS next weekend and have my work schedule adjusted.

If I do it, I'm probably sticking to "people I know + attacked me" with some OCs I seek out. I draw less but having a portable tablet makes art faster. (Too bad my art gallery here is outdated + not updated in half a year...........)
The Neocities DNS shutdown taught me to never use Namecheap. Guess I'll try Porkbun if I want a domain for here or Bsky.

I swear I wasn't paid to post this, but there's a new site for commissions and vendors as an alternative to Vgen and Etsy (etc.): https://artistalley.org/

I'm on it as a commissioner and it's very good, could use some tweaks but it's in progress. Mostly MLP people so far but if you sell merchandise or do commissions it's worth applying to.
How do you manage webmastering when working 40hr weeks. Good lord.

It went from "I can't maintain this site because of bad memories" to "I can't maintain this site because I'm constantly at work and too physically fatigued to sit at my desk". I can't even answer Discord DMs or emails timely anymore.

Been there, I usually noted down what I wanted to update and updated on the weekends (or way too late into the night). But, you shouldn't feel the obligation to update. Keep it at your own pace, y'know?

As someone in the same position, you can't. Not consistently, anyway, unless you move it up your priority list.

Man the crazy part is I don't have weekends because my schedule varies by week LOL... I try to chip at something when I'm not doing errands on days off but it feels Joever. My convention vacation in a few weeks is guaranteed to lead to new material though.

I'm debating on making a Bsky alt to post these on because that site is too safe edgy.

Work has me very very tired. If I could go back to having the hope and love I did on Christmas 2023, I would in a heartbeat :(

I have briefly returned for the old man zoomer's birthday. I have a long page in progress related to year of the fire horse. Otherwise I work 40hr weeks now and have a fun vacation happening next month. Don't be dumb or I'll shoot you.

I missed work today due to physical exhaustion, so I tried to set up a deployable Git repo to make uploading/deleting images easier. I couldn't understand the instructions and just stopped.

I've alluded to this before, but I'm going to get into it again. I don't think I'm going to update this site as much as I did 2-3 years ago. The elephant in the room is obvious. Years ago I had multiple friend groups and a partner to motivate me, I don't have that anymore. After I lost that I was thrust into a family-financial issue and I'm juggling trying to make offline friends and work full time.

I'm this close to giving up on the former, honestly. I have a hotel room reserved for a con in June, but I'm so fucking tired of life and various bullshit, I went back to social media. And not gonna lie, this community often irritates me so much. It discourages me to work on a site I have little physical energy for and only 3 people will see.

Having a zoomer spiel onto an unrelated status update last month and getting schizo emails convinving me to delete my site and get into crypto reminded me why I stopped checking here. (Don't tone police me, I don't care.) And I'm also tired of pretending my last relationship ended on good terms when it fucked me up. It's nobody's problem but mine, but it's another reason I avoid NC.

I'm turning off profile comments for awhile because it frustrates me and I don't like how the activity feed is diet Twitter. The guestbook and email is open but I'm slower to respond and less patient for random soapboxing. It's frusting how much I self-censor only for other people to mindlessly rant at me.
(I've met at least one mutual at a con since TFS2025 lol. It's very fun.)
