(TW: A Very Rambly Vent)
I... really wish I didn't see my personal value in my ability to pump out content...
it's not even a selfless thing, i find myself very selfish at times, certainly recently, not wanting to talk to people, not wanting to draw commissions.

And yet, I have succeeded. I've succeeded where many my age and older failed. I have a following drawing art for the last 10+ years, I have many great friends who love and care for me and I make enough to survive comfortably... so why do I struggle with being happy?

I have been told many times that burnout is understandable, and not to beat myself up over it... but what happens when it's one of the few things that gives your life meaning? It does not shock me at all that I find myself leaning...

I've noticed over the last few years, any time i draw a trans girl (Basil, Xoe, any gift art i draw of others' trans characters), that some people take it upon themselves to change the tags from Trans and Female, to trap and male, and i can only assume that the genderswapped equivalent will happen if i ever draw a trans guy.

Now, I want to make sure we are all on the same page here, I'm trans myself. I personally am not really bothered by losers changing my tags, because all it does is inconvenience me for 5 seconds, and give me a chance to laugh at people who clearly have a need to bash on others to make their own miserable life seem less awful.
That being said, the fact that I wind up seeing several people really take note, and show discomfort with it makes me feel the...

Full disclosure: With the exception of a few fatal pics made once in a blue moon, in my work, prey respawn upon digesting, as it allows for some cute teasing between friends, lovers and rivals. I just tend to not mention it very often, and keep fate vague, so that people who are more into perma can have fun too.

This is all to say, don't be surprised if the occasional sequence goes differently than you'd expect lol.

I gotta remember, when I use Postybirb, to go into new pics featuring Basil and set the tagging permissions to "Friends only". Transphobes keep editing the tags to have her as a male and trap.
I'm not even mad, I just fail to see how it's a valueable use of time on their end lol.

For those who don't follow me on Twitter (https://twitter.com/thevorebin), you generally wouldn't know some of the more personal matters that have been affecting me lately, so... there's a very good chance I have Carpal Tunnel as a result of art, as well as overworking myself at work and not taking breaks when I really should, which, for an artist, is uhhhhh... not baller.
Luckily, it's not permanent, and if I just take it easy with art for a while, it should heal itself over time, so that's the game plan.

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay~

I work from 1-10 Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. As a result, I may wind up posting pics early in the morning or late at night. Be on the lookout, just in case.

I have an auction currently going on on Twitter if anyone if interested. O3O

Sooooooooooo, if you've known me for any decent length of time, y'all should be very familiar with my tendency to fall into a case of the art block. Not to mention, work has been stressing me to the bone, and good ol' broken guitar-induced depression mixed with normal depression and laziness seems to be my fucking cocktail lately.











I love it, totally doesn't piss me off :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

So yeah, thank you all for your patience, and I apologize dearly for the lack of updates. Love all ya~

Unless it's my day off from work, I'm probably gonna be posting pics I draw anywhere from 12AM-6AM EST. If you're asleep around that time, you'll have to look in your messages for the pics.
