SORRY I disappeared + UPDATES

WHERE AND WHY?
[Bed & Sick.]

I am sorry for disappearing for a week and not following up. I’ve been going through it and have no concept of time, but I have some good news that will hopefully make up for my absence!

First, I took last weekend off intending to focus on preparing for this exciting change, but ended up getting sick. Many of you don’t know, but I used to be very unwell and had autoimmune-like symptoms. I recently had a flare-up in symptoms because of black mold (and being stupid), and I was unable to do anything but sleep, attempt to do housework, then sleep more.  [more on mold + Moon]

GOOD NEWS?!
[Full-time streaming?]

You may wonder how I had the strength and energy to do housework, but couldn't take a minute to tell anyone what's up? This is correct, but for good reason. First reason: maybe because I’m the worst? Did you think of that? The other reason is my mom approached me with an opportunity I couldn't turn down. She offered to let me live here rent-free in exchange for keeping the house in order. Basically a dream come true. 

I couldn’t resist the urge to get things in order before I came back to streaming… You know, so it's easier to maintain and stuff.  I did end up shaking like a chihuahua and with an achy body and head. That has subsided now, and the house feels cozy while I rot. I'd argue that is infinitely better than rotting in an uncozy house.

 But I could not comprehend the idea of communicating with another human being until a few days ago, which works out because I’m back on Tomorrow… Monday the 13th. I will be aiming to stream 4-5 days a week for the coming months. It will be laid back. Maybe even chill. Streams during the week will be especially chill, focused on art and cozy games. Then, when the weekend rolls around, we can see if I’m ‘Elden Ring’ strong.

BAD NEWS…
[Black mold + Art closet.]

I found black mold in my craft closet of all places, and it has already contaminated some items I had to throw away. I’ve dealt with black mold before, and it is suggested you throw almost everything out. Literally everything art-related is kept in that closet. I can’t bring myself to throw anything out.

I keep my handmade rugs in this closet. There are no visible signs of mold on the rugs, but that doesn't mean they haven't been contaminated. I can’t put them up for sale if there is a risk they could spread mold.  I am researching the best approach, and it doesn't seem like as daunting a task as I had originally feared… so good news within the bad news?

POSTPONING THE RUG LAUNCH?
[Possibly. No date chosen yet.]

The handmade launch, featuring exclusively tufted items, is supposed to drop in August. This is still possible, considering I will have more free time now, but it may be pushed to the end of August. I have not officially chosen a date, but if things go smoothly, the handmade launch will be on the 30th of August. 
I will keep y’all posted.

Thank you for your patience and understanding
Love, Moon

OH HEY, I'M WRITING A BLOG

It’s kind of awkward to announce, but it’s something I've felt compelled to do for a long time. To write about and share my experiences and thought processes. That’s probably pretty amusing to anyone who’s seen me type or try to express myself at any given moment. Valid. UwU. And likely very laughable to others who view me negatively. At the end of the day, none of that truly matters in any meaningful sense. This is something I need to do. Which feels cringe to admit, but the truth is sometimes cringe.

I’ve had the urge to write and share my experiences for many years, but I’ve always struggled with the justification…. And just like… basic spelling and grammar LOL. As I’ve gotten older, I understand that the desire is reason enough. If it doesn't hurt anyone, why should I need to justify myself? Just another excuse, and if I don’t do it, the thoughts of doing it will never go away. I will have to carry them around with me, nagging me, for the rest of my life. And it would be a shame to die without getting some of what is inside of me out into the world[wide web]

With all of that said. This life of mine isn't groundbreakingly inspirational or life-changing, but it is relatable and interesting enough, and uniquely mine. So please keep your expectations low. I am a deeply flawed human who’s honouring my nagging pull to write about life from my perspective.

This blog will contain a wide variety of content. From video game & movie “essays”, my artistic process, unexplained mysteries, urban legends, adventures, and lifestyle stuff, to potentially triggering information regarding my experiences and perceptions. I will cover topics I am fascinated by. Psychedelics. My relationship with life and death. Psychedelics. Navigating mental illness while searching for meaning and purpose, Psychedelics, and how the people (and Psychedelics ) I've met over the years have saved my life. There will be appropriate trigger warnings.

I will be sharing things I’ve never shared before, and things I've probably shared too many times. Some of the heavier and more sensitive topics will be behind a paywall. If any of this interests you, feel free to sign up for my email list. I’ll give future updates, first dibs on new drops, exclusive discounts, and announce new posts.




P.S - If it isn’t obvious, I am writing everything myself. Grammarly & other writing software are too expensive a commitment to justify at this time. So this blog will also be filled with a ton of spelling & grammatical errors, and lord knows what other nonsense. If I stay consistent with this or get bullied enough, I will reluctantly subscribe to something.
