June Notice: Not Dead (if anyone's still here) (Patreon)

- Just very very disillusioned and frustrated

- Food shortages due to Covid-19 mania

- Country's committing political suicide/literal genocide amongst re-election.

- Populace is forced into reopening/working amid over 110000 deaths with over a million infected 'theoretically' prompting a 2nd wave when the first wave didn't even end... And the virus is STILL considered a political prop by a percentage of the surviving population... All to save an already shambling and potentially doomed economy.

- Somehow me regularly chanting 'I don't live alone' does not yet prompt folks to believe that I in fact do not have a lot of free time to talk about sexy characters and preg art 18 hours a day. Especially in a planet-wide crisis where I live in a city with 3 surrounding virus sites, the 'hotspots' people call it.

- I'm tired of failing what should be an easy task for me (drawing) all because I have to look out of those who can't even willingly look out for me or themselves. (pretty much anything needed doing)

- Grandfather on my dad's side died, family drama ensued

- Live-in elderly scared out of their wits (and driving me up the wall daily)

- I can't even check on my own health; last year I was diagnosed pre-diabetic with high cholesterol and put myself in a strict diet. Food's already a problem.

- I'm the one in the 4-person household who is sent out for tasks no one else wants to do.

- And learning that Covid-19 seems to exacerbate underlying illnesses, I can't afford to leave the house under any circumstance and I can't concentrate on art since I need to be front and center whenever called on only to leave room for said elderly to nag me about not doing anything and yet not letting me do anything at the same time...

- Same certain person still doesn't care for me drawing for a living yet everyone else is afraid to go to work.

- My sister's laid off due to work absences during pandemic, meaning rent's mostly on my shoulders again doing the one thing I (try to) get paid doing what nobody wants me to do... And losing whatever earnings I managed to save up for moving out - again. No, I'm not getting reimbursed either.

- As if it isn't hard enough juggling between works that end up turning folks away even as I drawn their specific niche on another given day. And still zero room for new commissions.

- I see we still have room for double standards, at least...

By the way, I read up on Patreon's mandatory sales tax issue and looking into it. Been meaning to edit the tiers anyway, just in hopefully better conditions...

That is all.
