Make yourselves at home.

Earlier this month, cohost announced that it would be shuttered by the end of the year. It was a pretty small little place as far as "social media" is concerned, but I had a good time with it. It was kind of nice having such a niche little community.

I'm not really expecting to gain any semblance of "community" around this little blog, but I thought I'd start posting some longform content here and turn it into a more frequently updated space. Else, what am I paying for? I'm sure the spiders that have taken up residence in my server space have no problem with me leaving this little site forgotten (and I won't evict them--I do love spiders after all), but I'm just going to dust off a little corner just for me.

I've resolved to post more often on my tumblr as well, and it will likely be a lot of the same content, so if you would rather read these on some sort of "dashboard" you can get a similar experience over there.

Subject-wise, I'll probably keep this mostly down to the subjects of:

ArtOf course, I'll probably be posting about art. How can I not? I've actually been working a lot on more traditional art lately (sculpting and block printing), so maybe I'll talk a bit about that.
Video GamesI've been learning Godot for the past few years and finally released a little game called [Zoo-ika](http://funwalker.itch.io/zoo-ika) with my friend Maya Kern back in August. I'm also trying hard to get another little game finished by sometime next year (also more details for that on my [itch](http://funwalker.itch.io) as well). In addition, I'm a big nerd who just plays a lot of video games. I post occasional thoughts about them on my tumblr and twitter, but I might write some more thoughtful, longform posts about them here (and tumblr).
My Store...I know it's been closed for a long time. I haven't gone to a convention in nearly five years now and the pandemic really just killed my will to keep it open, but I have been working on some new stuff mostly for fun. If I re-open it, I may do it in "drops" rather than an always-open storefront, since it's kind of a pain to deal with during my regular routine. Maybe I should just make a dedicated post about that unto itself... I have many thoughts.

Aaaanyways... We'll see how long this lasts. lol
Stay fresh. me holding out my raw beating heart to you, but like, in a cute way.
