New Hardware (Patreon)

About two weeks ago, after my old mouse that I had been using for years started to malfunction a bit, the constant unintentional double clicking was starting to get really, really annoying. And by annoying, I mean infuriating, because it made everything take much longer than it had to because everything I do requires, to some degree, the ability to consistently click and/or hold click for extended periods. I got fed up and decided to try and fix it... but after a totally unrelated accident that definitely had nothing to do with me taking the whole thing apart and accidentally breaking both buttons, it was clear that the time had come to get a new one. It took some doing and an abnormally high number of stressful situations getting in the way of what should have been a simple task, but there it is. I ended up getting a Logitech G502 Hero since it's basically just a newer version of what I had before. One I figure out where the hell the software is, this bugger will be up and running.

The reason I'm bringing this up here of all places is that, frankly, I've been neglecting this page a lot. For some reason, I'd slipped into a mindset where my DA, Patreon and Oronjo pages were all distinctly disconnected from each other. That's something I plan to work on in the future, since all this nonsense regarding Oronjo shutting down, the Patreon hitting a slump, Paypal holding my money hostage for a week, and other things I won't go into have made me rethink a lot of things. But on a more specific note, I'm posting this here (and probably Discord) since it's largely because of you guys supporting this page that I was able to get this new mouse. The added security left just enough wiggle room to get something that's not only good quality, but suits my needs for both work and gaming. Believe me, I tried using a temporary one to work on lines, and it did not work. Ergonomic is an absolute must for spending hours making big, sweeping movements and constant, tiny adjustments after the fact.

In short, I appreciate the support. With this new mouse, I can resume finishing the next pack in force. And I'll only spend a little bit of that time spinning the wheel, I promise.
