I hope in the coming year I can be more active around here and amount to more than just a waste of space.

Archiving
I may or may not come back eventually. I thought about deactivating, but I've had this account since 2007 and I don't want to let it go. I'm a sentimental old man.
I Haven't Posted an Update in 2 Years
That's largely from suffering the worst burnout of my life due to working ICU during the worst of the pandemic. The stress of covid in the hospital completely sapped my creative energy and fully stole my desire to make art away. Things are slowly changing, and I hope to make a concerted effort to reconnect with my creativity. I'm finally beginning the process of healing this fresh new trauma.

I've wanted this for so long, and I've finally achieved what I thought would be impossible. Feels good, y'all.
