Back on the Horse.

Hey, sorry for radio silence. I'm putting out another stupid text post so you know where I'm at.

What Now? 

I took the last few days off since I really really didn't want to draw. I was busy at dayjob all day, and when I clocked out after 11 hours I just could not bring myself to draw with the way I was feeling. lol. I did feel as though things were over. Maybe they still are.

As of right now, I'm going back to working on all content. I will only be posting content that is not prohibited. This means anything that doesn't depict certain familial bonds. If that's a dealbreaker for you, I'm really sorry. If you're someone who prefers Patreon then, for now, maybe switch to there, since Patreon will be getting the same content. There will hopefully be more parity between Patreon and Substar as a result of these changes. (Small prize...)

Substar removed the awful anti-furry guidelines (check for yourself here) so Part 2 of the Stella set is back on. I'm waiting for them to drop the "all fanart needs to be of characters who turned towards the camera and said 'I am a legal adult in my universe'" rule. Ridiculous. I know we're all blaming credit card processors, and fuck them, but I find it hard to believe that Mastercard or Visa said "you can't draw cartoon characters unless the cartoon has an 18th birthday episode." They removed the furry stuff, so clearly some of this is their own design.

What About Old Content?

To save myself from being nuked, I'm going to have to nuke those posts.

Unrelatedly, I recommend you back up anything you see online that you like, granted it is legal for you to do so. I have a lot of my favourite youtube videos and drawings saved on my hard drive, so I could see them in the event they were taken down. You should follow my example!

All retroactively banned content will be removed this time next week, granted it isn't auto deleted by moderation. This is to give everyone time to download. Don't say I didn't warn you, because I'm sending this out to everyone in a mass DM. Hello!

Posts will continue to trickle out to Twitter/Bsky/Newgrounds for free at the normal schedule for as long as they will host that type of content. So if you're worried you missed out, it'll go up eventually.

Parts 4 and 5 of the Holidays set is on indefinite hiatus. 

Discord?

Entirely unrelated to anything else, I've wondered about opening a Discord. Should I do that? Would you guys be interested in that? I always said I never would, but it'd make it a lot easier to clean up offending posts on TOS changes, if everything was hosted in one place instead of spread around. What do you guys think? The TIDDYBAA Discord... I'll put a poll here, and on Patreon too. Please also hit the comments!

This is yet another public post with no art. Next time I post, it'll be art.

Thank you all again for supporting me and being kind.
