Hello everyone! This week's song is in Russian, and while I did my best, I can't promise it's 100% perfect since I didn't ask my fluent Russian-speaking friends to approve it for me. One of my friends is struggling to learn English, and was feeling frustrated. When they said they wanted to be able to understand my songs and hear them without having to read a translation I felt humbled, and I really wanted to do a song in their language as a surprise (hence my not running it by them for accuracy)...
Of course, it would have been nice to share a beautiful, joyful song, but I have to follow my emotions and this is what came from it. I had really been in a funk last week and early this week, my ADHD was making life hard, I was very tired, and my inner restlessness and panic/rage spiral instinct completely overwhelmed me. I've also decided to quit soda and energy drinks, to help clear my mind, and the withdrawal from stopping all at once has really made the last three days an ordeal. Right now I'm on day two of a long-running migraine headache waiting for my body to adjust, ЛОЛ...
To that friend in question (who prefers not to be @mentioned directly because they're shy), this song isn't what I hoped to give you, but was all I could think when I started writing, and I'm grateful to always have you and so many others to help me get a grip when the difficult days crowd in.
I also released a LoRA today after training it this week, Jazza the White Snow-Leopard, the Illustrious version. It's not really "finished", I have a lot to improve, but it's looking good overall, the hair and body are great, and I wanted to share it for the people who asked for it and have been waiting so patiently for weeks. After a lot of training and retraining it (what I released here is actually the 4th version since starting) I wanted to share something, so I can let it go for a while and do other things. It will be updated eventually, but I hope some of you have fun with it as it is right now 💗
That's all I got done this week, I'm still slow getting back up to the speed I was hitting for a while there. Thank you everyone, especially those who commented on my 1-year article who I didn't reply to personally. I read and cherished every comment, my brain has just been working against me and too many times recently I've looked at the notifications and just... not been able to do it. But I'm still here, still grateful, and just working more behind than scenes on things I'm excited about than spending every moment posting images and chatting here. Thanks again so much, and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!
