This is the time of year when i ramble about personal stuff and how it is connected to art and all that.This year was really hard. In fact, the last 5 years of my life were a constant rollercoaster ride and I'm really exhausted.I've decided that quite possibly i'm quitting art next year.I am uploading this summary early , because i don't think i'll create anything worthwhile in december anyway, so why not get through this now.If something happens, i can always update it anyway.So what happened, why am i leaving:- the rise of AI: i managed to have steady income somehow, but commissions dropped down noticeably since this apocalypse happened. People are just not interested in buying hand crafted art anymore when they can do it themselves with a click.Not only that, but the constant witch-hunting that is going on everywhere and having to prove that what you do is real. It's insulting, annoying and pointless ultimately.- wasted years: i've spent my life from my 20s up to my nearly 40s
