Hey guys how's it going. Many of you may be aware of what I've been up to the last couple of months, or mainly what I've been doing last month.

October was my first Voretober that I took part in, doodling almost once a day and posting it over on my BlueSky, Twitter, and Discord. I'll be trickling them into the FA Gallery eventually in the coming week. I completed the prompts for 30 days out of 31 - an absolute win tbh given my tendency to be lazy up until then. I think Voretober was the push I needed to get me in a consistent mood to draw like I should be.

Last time I posted a journal I brought up the problems my Dad has and I have good news if you haven't seen it elsewhere: not long after that journal entry an examination found that the tumor had vanished - so we believe he is in remission. Since then he had one other indirectly related procedure and now we are simply waiting again, all is well. Thank you for the well wishes if you offered them, they meant more than you probably realize.

Stepping back - regarding my socials: as mentioned earlier I have been posting to Bluesky, Twitter, and my Discord. Nothing has changed from the links in the previously journal entry save one big difference now: my Twitter, thanks to Musk's bizarre blocking policy, is now private. I simply did not care for it. I finished out Voretober, but with my profile provated I don't really think I'll be sharing much over there any more. I really just have it to see memes every so often. With that said, I am doing my best to be very active on Bluesky, which has proven to be intuitive and not a pain to use unlike certain other alternatives.

So, with all that said, you can find me on BlueSky and my Discord server Cardinal Crossing. Twitter, as I said, is a little bit of an issue, but I'm @/LiliaSchadn over there. Mastodon I do not post on whatsoever lately - I kinda find the community to be kinda like THAT type of Linux user (you know the ones - "I'm having a Windows issue" "USE LINUX GET LINUX WHY ARE YOU USING WINDOWS 11 IN 2024"). But it's a good enough fallback so you can find me over there too.

I don't stream all too often save for on Discord (and usually then I kinda don't stream on my own if that makes sense), but when I do open OBS you can find me on either Twitch or Picarto.

What else... VRChat? I mean, kinda? I use it but I'm a desktop user - I need to save up a lot for computer upgrades and everything I need for VR (which happens to include prescription lenses so there's that complication as well). So you now know one thing I'm saving up for.

Anyway with Voretober done and anything blocking my motivation successfully dealt with for more than several weeks now, I am preemptively announcing that my commissions with me reopened this month! Keep your eyes open for the return of the Google Form.
