LOL! But still… *sigh*. I am not a machine. I cannot ‘compete’ with the GenAi in the world that is negatively affecting every artist, so this is me. Just a little human who still hand paints stuff with a brain and a heart; pushing against the current that is heading towards a very steep waterfall.

I’d like to be less harsh on myself, really. Every single part of me goes ‘YOU SHOULD JUST PUSH THROUGH EVERYTHING, WHY AREN’T YOU MANAGING?!’, but realistically, this WAS how little was managed even with the push. The body really lets you know when things are too much.

(The management of other stuff is generally contraindicated when it comes to trying to manage the fluid…) I feel extremely weak and disappointed in myself overall; my world feels like it’s getting smaller and smaller, but looking back, at least there’s been enough to cover this little meme LOL!

Still, managing to keep things somewhat moving in terms of my little biz when I’ve had too much fluid in my brain + everything else adding complications that means we’ve had to decide to manage the brain one as it’s more important.

#artvartist time by the look of the timeline!
Wish I was more productive this year… have been extremely frustrated with myself for not handling more… doing everything I WANT to do, that I have on my to do list etc etc, but my body has been seriously kicking my booty.

Not that I ever had any faith that Meta chose the ethical option…
Disgusted because in a more vulnerable state, this sort of thing has finite effects on people.

So Facebook thinks it’s cool (and apparently ethical) and has started throwing me stories of people with some of my medical issues choosing assisted suicide… To each their own etc, but I’m extremely against being commercially targeted for this sort of thing.

There’re young children in Gaza who are helping their friend by making a make-do prosthetic out of sewage pipes and string so that their amputee friend could play football with them & be less sad…
