Hello everyone!

Hopefully you haven't completely forgotten about me by now, but I'm finally back from my stress break. I'll be back to posting new artworks again (both here and on my DeviantArt). I'll also be visiting Discord again, as infrequently as I usually do.

Much like the last time I took a "stress break", things ended up being quite stressful anyways: my Discord got hacked by some piece of garbage just a few days in, resulting in me losing a friend who blocked me thinking it was ME who sent her a scam Discord link; I rejoin one of the Discord servers I'd been banned from (as a result of the former incident), only to discover that one of the users there had been spreading rumours that I spammed their server deliberately because I'm a "weirdo" (pretty sure most normies would consider everybody there "weird", you especially mate, but screw me anyway I guess...); I finally find some time to share my artworks to the Newgrounds forum, and I'm met with the usual hostility; likewise with KYM, only crickets...

I also didn't really get all the stuff I had planned to work on done. There was some technical stuff I wanted to sort out behind the scenes, like backing up my hard drives, and sorting my DA galleries and Twitter lists, that I simply didn't find the time for because I was too busy with IRL stuff. I also didn't finish all the projects I've been wanting to work on, like my next indie game and animations.

On the plus side though, I did manage to get through several video games in my backlog I'd been wanting to play, as well as rewatch some of my favourite movies for the first time in a couple of years. I also got to see a little more of my family, and a bit more exercise and fresh air than I usually do cooped up in my bedroom.

Oh well... finally back to the usual schedule then. I've already posted my latest artwork, which you can find here. It's the black cat from Yume Nikki!
