2025 Post-Mortem and 2026 Plans

2025 was a shitshow, let’s just try to survive in 2026.

2025 sure was a year, huh??? 😰

A screenshot of an episode of [The Simpsons] showing Krusty absolutely flabbergasted, leaning forward, cigarette drooping out of his mouth. His next voice line would be [What the HELL was that???]
To quote Krusty the Clown: “What the Hell was that???”

I had such grand plans for last year, and… turns out just trying to taking care of myself, physically and mentally, my cat, and my house was a massive struggle in the face of, well, /motions at the landfill inferno of the fucking world

I kinda wish I was geographically farther from the United States right now… even tho I have so many American friends I already feel powerless to help.

If you’ve been around my little corner of the Internet, you’ve probably already seen that the big revamp project hasn’t really budged. I’ve done so work behind the scene, but nothing concrete or polished enough to publish online. I did post one fanfiction last June, but that’s about it.

I was talking to my therapist at the end of the year and he did point out that I tend to have tons of ideas and start loads of projects, but I don’t tend to finish any. Which. Ow. Accurate, but also, ow, that hurt.

So I’m not making any resolutions for 2026, and I’m not starting any new project either.

The objective for 2026 is to survive.

And if I can do a little more than surviving, then maybe I’ll try to finish a project enough to publish it. As a treat.

A Brand New Fanfic!!!

Guys! This is my first published fic in almost 2 years to the day and I’m super proud so I hope you like it :3 I worked really hard on it!

The First Step (2025 overhaul)

To hold myself accountable and encourage myself to update and clean up my site collective in 2025, I’ve decided to change all my sites’ layouts to a temporary, default, basic layout by somebody else in the hope that the plain layout full of Little Things That Bother Me™️ will help kick my ass into gear.

You can see the changes on my collective’s main page and on my shrine subdomain (yes I also changed the layout of all the shrines). I didn’t change the layout of this blog because that was too much work, but hey, maybe in 2025 I will finally finish the WordPress theme I’m building for it!
