Taking a look around Deviantart after being away for what seems like an eternity. Enjoy seeing features be added that allow you to curate your page like a Patreon. I'm also glad to see older website features are still around like the forums and the ability to host chatrooms. From a distance it seems like measures have been made to help support artists more, but at the same time I've been out of the loop with how Deviantart runs nowadays that I'm unsure if it still has the same issues it had when the UI change first rolled out. Anyway, longwinded rambling aside, I might give Deviantart another try and see what things are like now. If it just doesn't seem to work out for me expect me to mostly go dead on here again outside of the occasional log on to check my watches and see what's been uploaded.

Hello

I've been thinking about it and I'm likely not going to be posting art here anymore. I just don't like how this website has changed. I also just have too many accounts too many places and need to downsize. You're more likely to see me post on Twitter. It's become the main website I post my art on now. So here's a link if you happen to have a Twitter and would like to drop a follow. https://twitter.com/ShadowForce11 Now in spite of me deciding not to post art here anymore I will still be keeping my account around to talk to friends that don't use any other platforms and or to support artists that just use DA. I don't get around to checking DA very often, so you'll likely have an easier time getting into contact with me through Discord, Twitter or Tumblr.

Hi, I know it's been a while and I haven't been very active on here aside from coming on every now and then to go through my notifications. In short, all I can really say is 2020 has been a wild and tiring year so far, but also good in some ways. I have a hard time finding the motivation to use deviantart as an art platform and it's probably because I just have too many places I use for art platforms now besides here, Twitter, Tumblr, Pixiv, Furaffinity and the list can go on. It's become overwhelming at this point and I need to start limiting down what I do and don't use. Originally I tried maintaining all of these to post art to, but it's becoming too much now which is why you really haven't seen me using DA much. Compared to other places DA hasn't worked out as well as an art platform for me. M art usually does better other places than it does here which also just hurts my motivation to want to post it here. I don't know if I will stop posting art here entirely or not. It's still in debate. I might reconsider deviantart, but mostly just for the fact it gives more commission options as I can utilize the points system.

Happy Holidays

Christmas is tomorrow or if you're in another country Christmas is probably already here for you. The year is coming to a close and with that comes a chance to try to be a better person than you were the year before. With the friends I have in my life they've helped me grow so much as a person and for that I'm thankful. Here's to another year, may it be a good one for those that may have endured hardships over this year.

I know I'm rambling a bit, but something I genuinely want to fight for is to save North Koreans. Like North Korea is such a bad place. Kim is actually easily worse than even Hitler and that's saying something. They have no medicine or clean medical equipment so people are dying like flies. No fertilizer so they can grow crops. They aren't even allowed to have dvd players or internet access because Kim wants everyone to be convinced of the propaganda he's created. People literally can't even go from town to town in North Korea without permissions and those permissions cost a lot of money, so only the higher ups can really travel. Just it's such a bad place. If people are caught with media of any kind from outside the country they're tortured and killed for it. It's just crazy. More people need awareness of what's happening in this country. These poor people need to be saved. All these people are suffering all the while Kim is sitting comfortably with all the food he could ever want and all the modern luxuries. He has a mac computer and wifi and just anything he wants essentially and people are dying. I just wonder, what will it take to save these poor people. Something needs to be done. I can not sit here knowing there's so many people suffering and dying like this under such an extreme dictatorship. I say we spread awareness. Make our voices heard, try to get an end put to this cruelty. They need freedom. Most can't even afford an education either. And can't read or write and those that do even manage to get an education even there aren't even on the same level with South Koreans as far as education goes. They're behind. I want an end to this I want these poor people to get the justice they deserve. Who's with me? Comment if you'd like to support this cause help brainstorm ideas.
