"Oh my goodness, Bkay is posting!? Yo, dude!!! Where have you been?"

HELLO EVERYONE! long time no see, huh? Sorry for disappearing like that!! Things have been crazy recently.

Well,,, I wouldn't exactly say crazy. In fact, my life is actually much more stable than it was when I was most active here. You see, my hyperfixation on learningblocks emerged right before a very bad school year.                                 The August, September, and October of 2022 especially was when public school got more and more hostile to me. Unbeknownst to me at the time, I was autistic and had adhd (which, funfact, I had actually accepted using learningblocks), and part of this growing danger was my school system's abhorrence for the disabled. I'm not going to get super into it, but for this reason, learningblocks became what I like to call a core interest: a media that I became so enamored by it had become part of my inner well of identity and autistic recovery. Aka: numberblocks, it's community (you guys!!!), and the stories I made with it gave my brain enough serotonin and identity to carry through in the most taxing environments I had to deal with.

Things are better now, though. A LOT has changed during two years! I left public school for a safer and more disabled-friendly charter school. I had friends in the physical world that didn't feel alien or wrong for the first time for a long while. I was able to go from a rigid, perfectionist view of grades to a flexible, accommodating one, that let me still do well academically but reminded me to  be kind to myself. 

Among these changes, my hyerfixation on learningblocks faded. I never stopped being into it, but interests, even my core ones, ebb and flow. It became something i occasionally circled back too, but other media became important to me the same ways it had; Splatoon, Homestuck, Pokémon, Cookie Run, and many more franchises came out of the woodworks to heal and entertain me in similar ways. Some of them had even been core interests before Learningblocks! They gave way to it when I needed it most, then naturally came back around as my brain changed again.

What I'm basically trying to say, is that my absence from the LBC (on both here and Fandom) was a natural process if anything. I didn't get tired of learningblocks, nor its community; life simply happened, and LB gave way to other restorative media as I grew and changed. This community and its creativity had never stopped impressing me; you guys in the Numberblocks community were some of my biggest inspirations and best friends ever!!! I don't say it enough, but I want to say it now. Thank You for being here, for creating stories and art, and for just being great people in general. It means a lot more than you think it does.
