Honestly debating about whether I should delete both my deviantART accounts after what this website pulled with the AI shit. I'm sure there are plenty of other art sites that won't take every user's art without their permission and throw it into an AI database.

So...I'm not dead, in case any of the very few people who look at these statuses were wondering. I am working at another zoo, as a seasonal zookeeper. I started May 25th, and this one is supposed to go through December. This time I am working with cats :) Anyway, I already didn't post art very often but now it will be even less often because I have been working on that really big art project that I think I have mentioned before - but I will not be revealing much of it until I am finished.

I ordered some expensive earplugs that dampen noise, designed for autistic people and other people with sensory issues. So I hope they're worth the money. Anyway, this is my first actually paid position as a keeper, so it's super exciting. I can finally put on my resume that I've worked as an official keeper. I hope it will help me find more long-term work in the future. Aside from the updates with my career, I've been dealing a lot more with my thanatophobia lately and it has been pretty bad. I mentioned it to my therapist again, and she suggested meditation; I tried it a few times, but it's going to take more than that for me to get over this fear. Over the past
