short pause! + tired
🕑 Added 2025-08-14 06:47:41 +0000 UTChi again! this is a different post than usual! and probably a lot longer umm... the title is a bit ominous, but do not worry! hahaha
anyways, for a brief summary, i will be putting a pause on all pledges and stuff for a month, i'll still be posting and fulfilling commissions that i still haven't completed yet (74-81, [or if you have paid but haven't requested yet]), essentially a free month!... kind of....🥀💔
vvv the long version vvvv
the main reason for this is that i think whatever system i have set up now is um... very bad for me, and maybe for you too! mostly since i feel like i haven't been able to explore different concepts / mediums / sets in a very long time! my last set was... omg back in february!?! ahh! i'd like to do more and keep things fresh for both myself and you! as it would also reflect onto commissions and the overall quality of what i do
hmm for the secondary reason, i thought the commission system would be manageable for me when i set it up on june 4th but arghh i've been working 87+ hour weeks including the internship (sadly not an exaggeration) so i think i should completely overhaul the system... again.... sorry! i'll most definitely be making a structure which allows me to dynamically choose my workload, sort of like a commissions closed / open thing, since aah monthly quotas stack up fast! but we will see when we get there!
but yes! enough of that, plans! i aim to have this break be sort of a spring cleaning (despite it being summer) for me, the main action items being:
finishing commission 61, the kira x annie comic!
fulfilling all uncompleted commissions
the ~18 character test poll (54-72 images)
plus the 3 winners being in some mini-sets + proportion poll
gathering data
the next upcoming set poll
finishing the winning set (and a mini-comic)
cleaning my socials and strawpage / not neglecting them (sorry pixiv and twitter)🥀
reliably do video generations, hopefully....
near the end of the break, (sept 1-ish), post a poll for commission tiers only on what system i'll move forward with
and something else that i cannot remember arghh, this list will probably expand!
as for more upcoming things, i'll will post random tests 4 later today!
but yes, at the end of the day, i wouldn't be able to do this in the first place without you, thank you so much for supporting me and reading if you made it all the way down here! i apologize about all these sudden changes, but i just hope after this break i'm able to put in place something a tiny bit more sustainable for me! thank you all so much again!
i sleep now, good night!

hahah that's what i'm thinking! i will... do less... maybe 60 or 65 in total is the soft spot for me haha, but we'll see of course! definitely don't see this becoming my main source of income anytime soon, but i do enjoy doing this! hahaha fair enough! really appreciate your comment 😭, thank you again!

87 hours.... yea me thinks that is a wee tad bit more work than you should be doing. I admire the dedication to be willing to put yourself through that for your patrons, but unless you are trying to make this your main source of income those are some insane hours to be pulling weekly. Even then that is not sustainable. As i am sure most of us here would say your health is more important then some hot donged up anime women. You need to do whatever is best for you. End of story. Lots of sleep. Happy dreams. Hopefully.

Yeah don't sweat it. Nothing is worth your mental and physical health.
