Alrighty I wanna make this one Short and Sweet, but it’s Important.
Everything I mentioned in my Artist Introduction and New Year’s Resolutions Posts, which I’ll link at the End of this, are still a-go. Hell I’ve mentioned this part in passing but I think I need to emphasize it a bit.
2025 is the Year I really step up as a man, I have been already. But, right now my Family needs me more than ever. Especially just being there for my Extended Family more often. I’ve spent a lot of time since 2020 isolating myself in my Work and Study because I’ve been feeling the World’s Sting Hardcore. And this year’s been Good about turning that around. However, a lot of my Family have had really rough times this Year. So Starting Now, I’m going to dedicate a lot more of my Time to be there for them as an extra set of Hands (Faulty As They May Be At Times), and as Emotional Support. I was planning to anyway, but while we had a Good Time for the most part; the Elder Members (Mom, Dad, Sister, Aunt, Grandmother, Uncle, Step Uncle, Cousins) did have some visible struggles. Some more than others. So while I’ll definitely still be around and working on my own stuff, don’t be surprised if I’m gone more often in the Real World. I’ve mentioned this before, and I’ll link these as well. But my Twitter and Bluesky are the Best Places for keeping up with me near-daily. Tho I do still plan on spending more time here again. I’ve spent a lot of my Time Online supporting Strangers (And Making Connections Out Of Some) during the Depressive Isolation. And I plan to still. But it’s time I’m there for my Extended Family and Friends again now that I’ve got something of a stable Resolve once again.
But yeah, Merry Christmas. Happy Kwanza, and have a Happy New Year. Or at least be granted Strength and Good Fortune in the Future. Do Good when you can, but don’t forget to smell the Roses and Enjoy Yourselves however you do. My Relationship with them is Heavily Strained, Heavily. But I hope the Gods smile upon Humanity this 2025. Or can give us Resolve to Fight for Good Will.

Ya know, if I remember correctly I’ve already posted those links IN the Artist Introduction. But what the hell can’t hurt to do it again.
