Also, if you see me at 'weird events' or think it might be me using another handle somewhere, please respect my privacy. I have been shocked to have been recognized several times from youtube at events recently (which is crazy). I really love meeting folks, just keep it to the event please!

Most of what I make now is under a completely different handle & identity, and I can't tell you how much happier I am not dealing with the weight of everything being associated with my real name.

If you are feeling suffocated by professionalism, join other weirdos in making weird art privately.

I still love making long youtube videos so that is probably all I'll continue to do on the internet apart from sporadic art posts.

Disengaging has cost me relevance and income, but I am much happier for it and recommend you try to adjust your internet diet if you feel miserable too.

The last 2 years I changed my internet diet to cut out all short form video content and most short form text content, replacing it with long form videos, newsletters, podcasts, joining niche communities and groups, and playing games with my partner.

image is of a program window within Mac OS 6 of MacPaint. The drawing within the program is a pixelated 1bit rendering of Ethel Cain on a black background with her looking over her shoulder, arm bent and hand resting on her head with her fair flowing toward the right of the composition.

I drew Ethel Cain in MacPaint from 1984 with a 25 year old mouse

next piece / video is one I wanted to do for a long time, but it wont be pretty like the movies

call that facebooking, ok im done

the no undo is a litttttle crazy haha. I am picking myself up a copy! The color mixing has intrigued me for a while. Just gotta figure out what to make next!

I really like the idea of going to a museum to do a recreation...

hm, it depends if you have any existing stuff. Colors Live for the Switch could be good if you have one already. A restored samsung galaxy tab can be gotten for like $70, and plenty of other slightly old android tablets should be serviceable for light drawing apps!

it does, but it is very real unfortunately

I ordered something from Best Buy to be shipped and then I get a text that my order is actually being delivered by doordash and I need to give the delivery person instructions or my order will be delayed.

If only there was a system that paid employees to transport and deliver packages effectively

likewise <3 glad youre getting all the attention you deserve
