I finally have some meds that seem to work, I can finally draw again :') I'm worried because every time I say this, something bad happens, but I don't like people not being informed on why their pix are unfinished. Is that a professional thing to do, or is it bad & I should say nothing instead? I'm curious to know. I only want to do what's best for you guys.

Protip: wearing truly red sunglasses (too red to drive in & see the traffic lights) really helps migraines, as well as blue light exposure.

I can't eat today because I have a colonoscopy tomorrow I'll be put to sleep for. Ulcerative colitis continues to suck, but it's nowhere near as annoying or painful to drink as around this time last year for the same procedure when in Part 1 of the Hospital Arc. Peepy for scale, of course.

Thank you all for your patience. I apologize for the spam of such things, but things will hopefully improve soon.

Agh, my health is currently not doing great again. I'll be having a minor procedure on the 19th, so hopefully they'll see something they can help during it. Constant fever & exhaustion -_- just when I thought things were looking up. Fear not--this hopefully won't last long, & I can get back to your art 🎨

[sphaliro]

I'm pretty much recovered from my c. diff infection from a couple weeks ago, aside from some remaining pain, & I even built my art desk I bought several years ago, so fear not! Art is coming soon! :^)

I just think he's neat & that we could be friends.

I am home in quarantine, doing a lot better! A lot of stressful & painful things happened, but I have to quarantine for at least 2 weeks thanks to c. diff. I will be able to make more art soon, & I apologize for the delay.

I'd like to shout out the medication Dificid for being run by evil people who want to charge hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, for a cure to a highly contagious & dangerous infection. You are dirty, evil bastards.

If you ever get c.diff in USA, request something called "vancomycin hydrochloride" if you don't want to go broke.

(enjoy my dog!)

I had to have a blood transfusion early this morning, which was fine, but the repeated blood sugar stabbing wasn't. Awful! I forgot if I mentioned, but this is my average U.C flare; it's a bacterial infection called c. Diff. Very contagious, so people (staff & family) have to wear something barely a step down from hazmat suits just to enter the room.

(my dog misses me 😭)

I would like a night I can sleep relatively uninterrupted by procedures, but I am doing much better than before. Still not sure how long I'll be here, but oh well.

Guess which dumb bitch is bleeding internally again thanks to his ulcerative colitis.

Protip: if you need to go to the hospital or get labs done a lot, shave your arms. The tape & bandages being ripped off sometimes hurt more than needles or IVs.

At least I got to see End of Evangelion in theaters the day before I started getting in a lot of pain! Peepy & Pompom came with me to the hospital, of course. OMG THAT 2ND PIC IS AN EVANGELION REFERENCE DO YOU GET IT?? DO YOU GET IT GUYS??? IT'S ANOTHER UNFA--(I am forcibly taken out into the back of the hospital & shot)

It took a bit for this update to reach me, so if you don't see it as an option yet, give it a refresh in a few hours/overnight & it may have updated.

Hello, I was curious if the Deadly Premonition Comic/Doujinshi was finished or available for purchase.

I keep getting into troubles delaying it thanks to health & whatnot, alongside career stuff, so it still hasn't been released. It's frustrating because it's almost finished; it's the screentone & certain types of rendering (as well as a cover) that still need to be complete. I do plan on releasing it as soon as I can get back to it, so I will be sure to post about it in the tags when that does happen--thank you for your interest!

I guess it's real:

Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools

Internal documents obtained by 404 Media show that Tumblr staff compiled users' data as part of a deal with Midjourney and OpenAI.
