Honestly If I had enough money id just take time off to just learn new things as an artist refine my skill as a painter, learn to board for animation, finally learn blender, learn how produce etc. Just gain the skills to make more of the things I want to see and share with people.

I'm Finnish. I don't talk unless I actually have something to say. That doesn't equate to what I say is necessarily important, or related to the topic, or even funny

the drive to make things ever faster and cheaper is degrading so much the quality of things to the point that entire trades and lines of work where care is needed are dying out.
it's not even just animation. it's why clothes can no longer be made to last, why a new car is barely serviceable, etc.

it would be really cool if cis people internalized the fact that trans people can't just detransition on a whim and that banning hrt is akin to banning insulin or blood pressure medication. even from supposed allies, there's the continued notion that trans people "don't /need/ need hormones".
