I have been a human embodiment of anxiety the last couple weeks. My wrist has been hurting, so I've been avoiding drawing. My time was mostly taken up by video games, books, and anime, but because I wasn't "being productive," it really didn't help my anxiety. It did help with some inspiration building, though, and I think that's what I needed.
I did get a new job, and it's part-time, minimum wage, but that might just be what I need right now to supplement the costs of the things I have in mind. Aside from the pins that I still desperately want to make, I have an idea for my own set of oracle cards. Tarot and astrology are big things that fascinate me, and I think this project will be the perfect way to combine them. And if I can't make them an actual deck of cards, then I know I can paste the designs on my POD shops and it should work out well.
I'm also getting things ready for streaming on Twitch, I found a nice Spotify alternative to play music without having to worry about getting in trouble with copyright stuff (although I think that whole thing is stupid and shouldn't have been an issue in the first place). I had an idea for creating a PNGtuber avatar as well, but that's still a while off.
The only things preventing me from streaming right now are timing and audio. I live with my parents in a small, old house, and although I love them dearly, they do NOT know the meaning of "personal space" sometimes. In addition to that, we can't run the air conditioning all that much, so in the evenings we open up the house and blast the fans to circulate the cooler outside air. It's very, very noisy and I have no doubt it would get picked up on the mic that I have. So the best time for me to stream would be in the mornings/early afternoons on days when my dad's at work, but with this new job, that could be an issue as well. There's still a lot of issues to iron out.
In any case, I am still around and still working on it. I hope you continue to stick with me in the meantime! Here's some of my work since the last post, consider checking out my shops to see them on products!
