FAQ

Q: Why is the old FAQ gone?

A: I'm not actively online anymore, so didn't feel the need to have all the info in it just sitting here for anyone to peruse.

Q: Why aren't you active online anymore?

A: 2020 and 2021 were rough for me, and social media made them way worse. I didn't wanna deal with it anymore, so in May of 2021, I bounced. I'm happier and a lot less stressed now because of it.

Q: Are you still making art?

A: Yeah definitely, it's The Thing That I Do™.

Q: Where can I see your new art?

A: I'm only sharing my art with my close friends on a private discord server. Sorry!!

Q: Are you ever coming back?

A: I don't know!! Maybe. But as long as the internet stays the place it is right now, probably not. I do know that I will not be returning to deviantArt (stated below), Twitter, or Instagram, unless some (extremely unlikely) drastic changes are made.

Q: Why has your deviantArt account been deactivated?

A: In November of 2022, dA announced that they would be launching their own AI image generator trained on images uploaded by all users on the site. This was done without the consent of those users, and even though dA tried to quickly walk back the underhanded way in which they wanted to steal their own users' artistic content, I felt this incident was far too beyond the pale. I deleted all of the drawings I had in storage and then my account. I will not be returning to deviantArt.
