Rejoice sunny parkers. I am here to drop a new blog post.
I should get the award for "Most creative burnouts at the end of a single year". I'm not doing too well when it comes to motivation. I'm sorry for not really working on my website aside from small diary entries. Yes. I know I shouldn't worry about updating my site constantly, but I feel a little bad about it.
What I'm tempted to do is to retheme my site to be Shadow the Hedgehog themed. I still like pop'n, but I want a little bit of change. It might be cool to do. It would motivate me to work on my site a little at least.

Oh Kyle Drake. Why are you like this.
Turns out that him supporting gen AI is the push I needed to move off of Neocities. I didn't want to move, I truly didn't. But alas. Here we are.
Not that I didn't WANT to move to Nekoweb, it was more that I just. didn't want to move my entire site to another host (though I knew I'd probably end up doing that someday anyways). It's just not fun having to relink everything, and I'm going to have to email webring hosts to update my site links. That was annoying back in July when I changed my site name from ikaroll to crtstatic.
At least Nekoweb blocks AI scraping bots, and doesn't publish updates the way Neocities does, so that's at least a plus side to the move. It'll take me a minute to move everything completely over, but at least I'm moving everything important over tonight (my OC pages will take a while)

Burnout is never fun. But I feel like that doesn't need to be said.
If you were wondering why I wasn't uploading any artwork...well. I wasn't making any, that's why. The universe played a cruel prank on me, where I had burnout for a long time in July, got my art motivation back, and then once college started, it all went out the window.
I've really only had motivation to work on vocal synth covers, probably because it doesn't involve me drawing. But, I THINK I've got some energy to draw again (knock on wood). I don't like NOT drawing, since it allows me to get the creative thoughts out of my noggin, ya know?
My first day of therapy went well, too. It was just a bunch of starting questions, so it wasn't like it was going to be hard anyways. I'm just glad I'm getting myself figured out.
