change of content

(TLDR: I'm switching gears from primarily OC content to vocal synth stuff, although hopefully vocal synth related content will bring me back to ocs; if you followed me for my ocs I hope you will still support me and my work.)

This has been a long time coming honestly... I'm not sure really how to explain it in short so this might be a long post, apologies for that. I'll put this under a read more so it doesn't clog your dash/my blog.

If you've been following me since before 2024, you've probably noticed that my interest in my ocs has been wavering, and in turn my productivity. There's a lot of reasons for this, especially one big one that I don't really feel the need to talk about, but that big one really killed my passion for a long time. honestly the passion's been drying up since 2021, but I feel it's affected me much more this last year. Aside from the paralyzing depression I've felt after an event last summer, my productivity has gone down and it's made me unsatisfied with what I do (not in a "I'm not worth it" way- in a way that personally makes me happy.) However the one constant has been music thankfully for me.

in all honestly I think I've always had more passion for music than I have had for any other creative endeavor (besides audio/video techwork I guess haha), but I was kind of ashamed of every attempt I made so I tried to not dip my toes in too much, aside from attempts at music I never made public as a teenager. but coming back to it as an adult has really helped me and I feel much, much more satisfied creatively right now in this way. and honestly I do think it's a good thing, because ever since I first saw kagepro in 2011 as a wee 9 year old, I knew I wanted to make my stories into original vocaloid music, but at the time the medium wasn't nearly as accessible and there weren't many english vocaloid banks out there (I was also like 9 but that's besides the point I guess). but now I can actually see that being a real thing I can accomplish and it makes me excited again to work on my oc stories (especially seeing vivimeng's work too in the recent years)

so yeah, I don't think I'll ever make my comic or novel, but I do want to make my stories into song series. and maybe someday I'll get the motivation to do a comic or novel tie in or something, who knows!

I'm not abandoning my ocs of course I could never do that, they're my babies haha. but what I am saying is that for the next couple years don't expect them to be my main content. I'm going to still draw them and all of course, but I really want to spend the next few years honing in on my music skills with vocal synth covers (as well as arrangements of other songs) so I can get to where I want to be to make my dream come true. and I know vocaloid music isn't everyone's thing; I'm planning on finally also learning to sing like I've wanted so there will probably be self covers of my music as well.

I hope that even if this is a strange/odd change in content you guys will still support my endeavors, and even if it isn't and you choose to unfollow thanks for being here through it all anyway! I do really appreciate all of the support and love I've gotten over the years and I would probably not be considering making my stories into original songs if I didn't have you guys + my wonderful friends. here's to the future (filled with much frimomen I'm sorry class)

[shameboree]

i am actually going to whine about this publicly

my recent Poisoning Adventure was bc my psych NP (baseline can't be trusted) overdosed me on a new med I never shouldve been on and it caused pretty severe acute extrapyramidal effects (hella muscle spasms, uncontrollable jerking/movements, felt like i was in a fuckin dbz gravity chamber) and METABOLIC ENCEPHALOPATHY!! i couldnt control my body and even tho i knew who i was when it was where i was and why i was there i was also on a completely different realm of existence and it was like, Terrifying Actually!! so even tho im off that med and antidoted and not at risk anymore every time i have any kind of nerve tingling anywhere i start Freaking The Fuck Out. this shit was FOR REAL worse and more harrowing than literally any part of having cancer including the parts where i almost died. was more frightening than having meningitis bc at least i wasnt totally fuckin zooted outta my mind!! ur bitch needs Therapy. wowie!!

anyway ive been struggling w orthostatic hypotension for a hot minute (largely dehydration imo) so i got that rush u get when ur bp tanks and just started cryin like a little bitch babby on account of the Fears. Despite being super tired I am afraid to sleep bc the first bout of extrapyramidal symptoms woke my ass from DEAD SLUMBER

I used to love NPs but nowadays NP schools are clownhouse jokester diploma mills and due to scope creep ushered forth by the capitalist disneyfication of healthcare theyre allowed to practice WAY THE FUCK completely outta bounds. it isnt safe!! chikadee was makin nonstop bonkers med choices for me including putting me on the vers of a medication not even meant to to treat what we were trying to treat and also the correct version had limited success in.. the pediatric population?? babe what?? had to get my pcp involved on that one.

i had issues w nps before on account of all the probs w education and safety (theyre not even required to have 5 minutes of bedside experience outside of clinicals which ultimately are glorified techwork and useless in terms of Actual Nursing Practice (i do think having clinical experience IS Essential and beneficial tho)) but this trash ass dumbshit idiot gave me FRESH TRAUMAS i did NOT need so i have gone from a nonenthusiast to a full on hater. listen we did not go to med school we went to nursing school we should stay in our fucking lane. christ alive!!!!!

i cant fuckin believe this single experience was more traumatizing than actual months of chemotherapy

ALSO I GOT DENIED MEDICAL LEAVE?? WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THAT!!!!!!
