Sorry for the sudden radio silence and lack of SBD story uploads when I claimed earlier it would be a "big dump", guys, but school work, paying tuition, and a search for a job has been killing me on the inside...like...like..."saying 'thanks, you too' to a barista at a Starbucks after getting your drink" killing. If you have anxiety, you know the feeling. I wouldn't know as I have never been inside a Starbucks or café or coffee shop ever, but I think the analogy was best suited for this.
So I am taking a short hiatus until late May to early June to recalibrate my schedule and get things sorted. I'll still reply to comments, post special days, and more but no story uploads. Putting my foot down, guys, I know you...like my Star, Bird, Dragon series (I hope) but I need time. And ideas, you can give me ideas; you can be my muses any time. Like, for anything I write, short stories, oneshots, anything. And share with me your thoughts on shows like Miraculous, TADC, cartoons from your childhood and nostalgia even from a time forgotten (I know there's a word for the opposite of nostalgia about a love for a time you didn't grow up in, but I cannot think of the term so help me if you can), and other things happening in pop culture.
Like The Miraculous Journalist, I don't trust news stations like FOX or CNN because I don't trust the government (do not get me started on the government, it'll be a whole manifesto and I'm already a political outcast as a bystander in my Republican family) and I don't like politics, so for more lighthearted news, I choose YouTube for my news in the entertainment industry; the one I'm recommended the most is Vailskibum, who gives you enriching short videos about indie animation, games, shows, etc. and serves as a break from news about wars and political nonsense. I'm not trying to push some agenda, but we all need to take care of ourselves mentally to survive in this world now. So let me have my rest.
Thanks and bye!
