hiiiii patrons im back from the con!!


it was so fun! i saw so many of my friends and a lot of people who like my work, even though it was such a small con at least three or four people knew who i was which is insane LOL!!! its so fun meeting people who have seen me online and it makes me feel like the world is a lot less big and scary than it is

!!!!!

so, todays updates! 

  • im working hard on the vlog for this weekend, it might take me awhile because i accidentally got like,,,, 7 hours of footage LOL!!! i didnt even do that much but my friends knew i was kind of out of it and not able to vlog as much as i want so they each got like tons of footage for me to use lol. itll be up later this month probably!!! im also working on my q&a and im going to vlog another thing this month, which is:
  • im going to actually try and rent that studio space i mentioned!!! if youd like to contribute to helping me financially afford it, i'm getting a smaller one so it wont be too too bad on my wallet but i updated my ko-fi goal to help!!! if you'd like to give me a strawberry and contribute to the fund, here: https://ko-fi.com/candysqz  
  • my shop is finally actually popping off and im working super hard on new teeshirt designs, my new mascot merch, and more! i know ive been talking about it for months with very little actual progress but now that this con is out of the way and my mental health is better theres a lot less stopping me. im going to be working with artists and stuff soon too to make even cooler stuff for my shop!

now for the issues ::

im transferring from dropbox business to streamable business which means all excessively lewd (which is really really rare and only 1 of my videos ever has qualified as too lewd for streamable) will be in my gumroad packs from now on. this is also way more comfortable to me, easier on my brain, and a lot more simple to maintain. im sorry if this is disappointing in any capacity, if you really enjoyed having to click a link to go somewhere else to see videos i hope this will suffice  . i dont know what problems this will cause but ill fix them as they pop up!!!

also, another issue : a lot of my supporters really love contributing to my actual costumes and finishing them, but right now my space is so gunked up i cant afford to intake a lot of supplies without sacrificing productivity because of the small space and almost 90% of premade costumes on amazon don't fit my chest or hips, so i can't ask for premade costumes there without needing more supplies to alter them (which is what i've been doing!) 

i decided to sign up for the waitlist for throne, another type of wishlist platform outside of amazon wishlists. i feel really weird having two entire wishlists on my linktree - i really do not want this to come across like i feel entitled to more support than you already give me, im really grateful for what i do receive and it's already more than i can fathom. im almost at a point i can pay my bills and rent almost like 2/3rds of the way with just my patreon money - which i never thought was possible. im going to make my amazon one mainly for supplies and add commissioned or completed costumes to throne!  

the world is ROUGH right now, financially, socially, everything - and im really happy we can be here together in this community with each other. having you here is keeping me sane and helping me a lot, so i want to also help you and make cooler stuff.

again as usual, please feel free to join my server and talk in it! we play games and vc a lot. ask me questions on the q&a post, comment anything you wanna say here, etc etc! i love you guys so much and i hope the rest of this month will be poggers
