Hey Chiraa <33 I hope you're well <33 If you have time (and you don't mind me asking) could you pass on some questions you asked yourself when you decided to get off social media that you think might be helpful, or were the most interesting/ difficult to respond to?
I loved your recent post about it and resonated with me.
I am asking this on retrospring in case you decide to respond and someone else also finds it helpful besides me u v u

Thinking I miss out so much for your cooleness and hot takes on mastodon and tumblr makes me clench my fist and shed anime tears smiling in loss.. (i do not have either) pmuch thinkin out loud. Happy New Year chira, i wish you the financial stability and time to work on your projects and be happy. Takecare!

the coolness factor is extremely debatable but I will confess my takes on bluesky barely register for spicy, I aim to be well behaved. my masto conclave is where I express my full unfiltered shower thoughts. tumblr is a portoflio mirror so no worries there, but by all means follow me to masto!! chuck me a DM on bluesky

I am curious about your project management on your own projects! To be more specific, you're working on multiple, right? How do you go about each one? Is it whatever you feel for the time? Do you set some kind of monthly goal for each separately or something else?
Your Jolanka headshot in your last ko-fi update was jaw-dropping, amazing color!

Does your dog ever do that thing where they sneak up behind you and put their wet nose on your leg?

No he's too polite for that.... He comes up behind me and quietly but very gently taps his paw against my leg to get my attention, and then he gives my knee a little lick.

Have you considered doing a visual or kinetic novel?

I'm rewatching utena and i remember you said it was the greatest love story of all time ages back. honestly true and real but I wanted to know if your opinion has changed since you said that

greatest love story of all time means of all time, does it not? I'm not weak, I own my positions.

Can you tell us about Bocchama's personality? Wanna hear more about the good doggo! :)

not an ask but thank you for everything you post online, quite literally. I really enjoy reading your bsky posts or anything you have to offer, and I always either feel I am learning something new, or some missing piece of a puzzle falls in place, or there's something new to discover I haven't thought about. Gets my gears working. Good luck with your calendar!! Sending fighting spirit to you! <33

genuinely such a kind thing to say and leave in my inbox, wow. really appreciate it, things have been shaky for me lately so the sentiment truly is a comfort, thank you.

sorry I forgot to also add to my previous question. If the argument is re:"I trained x model with my OWN art" or "I got consent form x artists to train this model so it's not stolen"; how would you interpret this?

That a creator who is too lazy to respect their own art doesn't have the imagination to be good at it, and also they hate the planet and want humanity to die, ostensibly.

With retrospring scheduled to close in 2025 (unless they roll that back), will you move to any other q&a platforms, use your website for it, or stop doing Q&a’s altogether? I love reading your answers to questions and want to follow you to wherever you go, if you go somewhere!

Eh, that's something I'll deal with in 2025 honestly. that's a year away, lots can happen between now and then.

My inbox on tumblr is always open and I'm happy to answer anything through there also, but not many people seem to send me asks!

If you ever lose track of my online presence for any reason, just go to either of my domains (jaydaitkaci.com / littlefoolery.com) and any SM accounts listed there will be where I'm at.

Thank you for finding my answers interesting, they've been fun to respond to.

It must have been on your website but I may paraphrase it a lot. I will try to word it as closely as I remember: "if your art doesn't change, you're not changing anything about the way you draw" or something along these lines.
