Bi-Weekly Report #24

An ER visit. Frustrations with the American medical system. Frustrations with the American everything, to be honest. We hate it here.

The fuck has even happened the last two weeks? Anything?? It's time to remember.

ANIMATION

The Vivian animation wound up getting finished a bit later than anticipated, but was finished all the same. That one's backer only for now, and the Applejack riding animation is public in exchange.

I have also finally gotten back to work on the big ill-conceived haunted manor orgy YCH. The corner group that's been my focus this whole time is nearly done, so I'm hoping to finally be done with their standing loops by the end of this coming weekend. There's still an alternate angle shot to figure out with them, but right now I would very much like to work on any other part of this thing before someone waiting on it starts rioting.

There's a WIP in the Discord. It's too raunchy for a public post here.

AND THAT ABOUT DOES IT

The fact that these last couple weeks have gone so much worse than during peak sick kinda makes me feel justified in my overwhelming frustration with how my time is slipping through my fingers lately. Feels like I can't focus for more than a couple minutes on anything important without getting derailed by something or other. 'Bout ready to run away into the woods for a bit just for that bit of coherent peace, but I get the feeling a bear or cougar would try to interrupt me and I'd finally snap and punch a wild predator in the face and then there's that to deal with. Tired of feeling overwhelmed and stressed and increasingly powerless to keep up with any of it, regardless.

Also hit with the humbling thought that we are one significant contributor away from our total monthly patreon take suddenly dropping to double digits, and we know that guy's job is federally funded so who fucking knows if anything in that realm is stable at this point. They just laid off a bunch of the CIA, and historically the US gov loves those guys. That's a bit anxiety-inducing, but is also another thing none of us can control, least of all me. It certainly explains why I feel so pressed to focus on commissions until I hit a state of burnout, though.

I know some of y'all miss the comics and such. Sorry. I miss them too.

On the upside, we had a social window for a couple days. Watched some movies, played some Phasmophobia. Starting to actually feel kind of good at that one. Only took a few years to get the hang of it. Also, my birthday happened. Wee.

I need to do better. Things need to be better. I'm trying.
