BIG KEESE KEESE KEESE!
I want to feel that drive to make again, and not feel like I'm hitting a wall every time I open a project or see other people's creations.
I'll get there again, but I have to give myself the space and fuel to reignite that spark on my own terms ☺️

All that said, despite the challenges, despite the fear and anger.. hold tight to each other. It's scary out there, but this community is beautiful in its strength, creativity, and generosity. I still believe in it, even if I have to take a step back from it.

Be well, my friends. Stay kind 💙

If you've read this far, you are a generous soul, and I appreciate you. The last year has been hard, but this year started off particularly difficult, not just for me but for so many people. Me stepping back isn't just a creative choice, but also a necessity as other things change IRL for me.

That said, I would be overjoyed to follow or continue to follow you and play toys on my personal account! If or when I post, it will likely be from that account, so I'm not permanently leaving or anything. Rather, I felt it important to be transparent about my plans for the future and this account.

Please understand that I care about you all so much, and I want to keep supporting you as you've supported me. You are the reason I keep making things, after all!
I just really need to take some steps back, reduce my dependency on socmed, and participate in other activities.

As stated, I still intend on making things, as my greatest joy is giving back and making people happy. But my releases will be slower, and I'm looking to turn this account into more of a release-only space.
I know that's very limiting, but it reduces my anxiety over releases.
January 17, 2026 at 3:19 AM
It's not that I feel uneasy about what I make, how, or where I fit in. Rather, my own personal needs have shifted, and I feel comfortable slowing down to give myself clarity, composure, and the time and space necessary to emotionally regulate, as well as creatively explore other things.

I like making things, I will continue to do so. I simply no longer want to operate under perceived obligation: from others OR myself.
The environment of modding has changed dramatically over the past few years, and so, too, have my own thoughts, feelings & needs.

I've always been slower on the creation side of things, even when I have a 100 ideas on the table. But I always end up feeling like "I gotta keep up" instead of letting things progress naturally.
I'm feeling a burnout that transcends the capacity of *doing* and exists in an emotional kind of place.

Genuinely the only way to get a crumb of corporate customer service is by getting enough eyes on a damn social media post or to mail *an actual letter to a physical office*.

What a joke.

Half the time, an email isn't even listed and bafflingly, a lot of places for some reason hide their fax number??
And "live agent" chats are just an absurd way to get you to cycle between menues and get kicked out to the beginning enough times to get furious enough to give up.

hat not big enough

These are not circumstances that require performative or creative exploration and tourism. That is exploitative and disrespectful to REAL FUCKING LIFE.
JUST. DON'T.
January 13, 2026 at 4:20 AM
I didn't think it was possible to be shocked by people and things in this community but I remain corrected yet again 😑
January 13, 2026 at 3:45 AM
is this fucking real please say sike

I need you to know that sometimes, when things are hard and I need a bit of whimsy throughout my day, I whisper little things to gift myself a smile. lightcutie world'hero is a name that has gifted many smiles.
January 12, 2026 at 7:30 AM
THESE ARE SO CUTE! I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for any announcements! 👁️👄👁️

Not stealing! I just had an idea and worked with what we have! I'm glad to see that idea being continued integrated in new ways! ☺️ (yesss more sheer sleeves YESSSSSS. My wardrobe EXPANDSSSS)
