well,
It feels like 99% of sites online now are participating in some sort of ass-backwards tiktok challenge to see which one can tank itself the fastest. Now DA seems to be showing its entire ass, between the recent Dreamup fiasco (dumb) and the talks of adopting web3 blockchain garbage (also dumb). So, uh... I think I'm gonna bounce. I've been on this site, between two accounts, for literally 20 years. I've seen all shades of stupid drama and hairbrained features get introduced, pulled, and then never spoken of again (remember Muro? yeah, I didn't think so). I've seen people purge their entire galleries and leave over something as innocuous as DA changing all of the icons to Mudkips for April Fool's. (The 2000s were... different; you really had to be there.) Yeah, it was all comparatively silly shit, and yeah, I got caught up in the "I'M LEAVING DA 4EVER!!!1" fervor at least once. But, ultimately, I ended up coming back because this place felt like the last remaining relic of a bygone
20 years :V
Well, considering it's been well over a year since I last updated my journal, I thought I'd share this: As of a week ago, I've officially been on DA for 20 years. Two whole ass decades. I've been on this site longer than some of you have been alive! ha ha ha time is a fuck and the looming spectre of death will eventually come for us all ha ha ha

Hey, sorry I haven't been around on DA much; last year sucked and I spent most of this year recovering from it but now that deviantart is the only social media platform that hasn't been fucking algorithm'd to hell and back maybe I'll actually start posting more here I didn't draw a whole lot last year because... *gestures at all of 2020* got a few projects in the pipe so keep an eye out for them
