1. physical health - basically every physical health issue i've ever had came to bite me in the ass these past few months, including new muscle spasms in my neck! what fun!
2. mental health (mainly adhd) - i realized a while back how impossible it was to upkeep this site while juggling so many projects at once (including a big miku project of mine and my first ever artfight after spectating for many years) while being unmedicated. unfortunately, if you've seen america right now knowing that i'm not particularly well off, it's a lot harder to get what i need to function like i want to
3. MASSIVE coding block - basically what it says on the tin. i focused heavily on college work and art as a whole which stressed me out heavily, eventually i could barely bring myself to find new ideas and motivate myself to update my site
with all of that said, the site hasn't really been abandoned. i have two Legitimate music reviews/analysis pretty much done and i have many pixel art ideas that i finished (then ultimately scrapped because i thought it wasn't really that good), but i need to take some time before i can get myself to update regularly again, mainly to get some advice for dealing with adhd oh my god it's been destroying me creatively right now and i need a solution to actually Do Things
i'll only be periodically updating the miku fanlisting since it's the most low-effort thing i can do with my site at the moment, so don't worry about that. it took a while to respond to submissions as of late and i'm Very sorry to all those affected, will not happen again now that i set a boundary for myself
thanks for your time and cooperation and i'll see you later when my neck isn't killing me lol
