Upcoming stream + update (Patreon)

Things have been challenging for me this week and it's been practically impossible to focus on last week animations. I'm tired of falling behind so if I stream tonight, it will probably be to complete those animations. I just made a new channel on my discord since OBS's connection has been inconsistent at best.

Feel free to ignore the rest of the post, I just felt like I needed to post it for my own mental state.

Mom had a very treatable type of skin cancer but it was being fairly challenging finding a place to take her quickly enough despite how quickly it was growing. She just had it taken off earlier this week, but she needs to wait a month for the plastic surgeon. However, during her surgery, I've needed to be out of town to take care of her dogs. Normally, this wouldn't be an issue, but my girlfriend (who severely needs therapy) not only has significant separation anxiety, but she also lost her mom to cancer not too long ago. She hasn't mentally dealt with that yet and this whole situation has her remembering things she wasn't ready to yet.

I just felt a trapped this week. I don't want my parents to resent her, but I couldn't keep her from being unreasonable. So I talked to her once she calmed down and told her that, for both our sakes, we need to get her some professional help.
