i'd like, someday, to have a year where i just accomplish things without having to do it In Spite Of Everything. but for now, this will have to do.
this year, in spite of my medicaid insurer being shitheads and depriving me of my ADHD meds for 4 months (FUCK YOU PACIFICSOURCE), the USA getting even stupider, everything in my house breaking and being expensive, having to desperately fundraise more than once, my beloved cohost dot org shutting down, my lower back and my carpal tunnel syndrome making it their personal mission to ruin my life, and, as always, being disabled and poor in the USA, i:
• learned a fuck of a lot about Ren'py. like damn for someone who is not a programmer i sure did a lot of programming, im not sure i can continue making the claim that i'm not lol
• made Potion Stand Story, a visual novel about witch stuff and feelings, and was accepted into the Queer Games Bundle and Indiepocalypse #60 (out soon! January 3rd! go buy it!). pretty good for baby's first finished game!
• made it through physical therapy for CTS. though i will probably have to go back. but like i learned a lot about managing the condition haha
• DID ART FIGHT. for the first time. and frankly kicked ass at it
• started properly on Iron Company, and the reception so far has been better than i ever could have hoped tbh.
• made quite a few improvements to my personal website. i think it's pretty good.
• got back into blogging! such as this.
• got a lot faster at typing with just my left hand. not as fast as i'd like to be yet but these things take time... i'll get there >:)
• made a lot of cool new friends through Artfight, Bluesky and cohost!
so get fucked, 2024. and pre-emptively, 2025: you can also get fucked. i'm coming in swinging a steel chair and screaming
