Hey guys; wanted to toss out some updates for those looking out for my situation and such.
There have been some improvements since i had to take up donations and such a while back. For the most part, i'm in good standing for now and still taking commissions and donations here and there; paying for my bills haven't been an issue as of late, and my family has been helping me out as well with this, as my sister has helped pay off the rest of the car insurance for this billing cycle, so that's a nice alleviated pressure off my back for the time being.
I've mostly been doing commission work here and there and selling stuff as well (mostly stuff my brother has collected he regrets and allows me to have some of the money, or all depending on the item) that's been helping atm. As of the time of this, i've only treated myself to one commission as of late, and i had a slot with someone else that i've since given to a friend because it didn't really make any sense for me to keep it because of where i stand. As of now, most money i've been getting has been stuff i've sold or been paid for via commission, so it does feel like i'm doing work, but not quite the same as a job. I'm still getting around to drawing more often and making up time between other chores and HW.
I've now gone back to college again for this semester. I've had to drop a class as well due to a problem i didn't realize when i signed up for my three classes. Turns out, the three classes i signed up for all have a lot of work to chunk through on a weekly basis that it would've been pretty difficult to manage all of it (and my own digital work for that note as well) in the time i have. Knowing myself, and the situation i have with vocational rehab, I had to make a decision about dropping a class for fear of not performing well and losing VR support, and it wasn't that easy to do. Nonetheless, this happened.
That about covers it, aside from having to go attend Jury Duty in 13 days. I'll be paid for it, but i am not looking forward to actually going to the courthouse.

I am still alive
I just haven't really been active since the recent move. I'm also dealing with some severe art block, and also just my overall mood being all over the place. We shall see when i get a chance to do some more arts/streams. I've also closed my Patreon, because i cannot stand the bs that they've pulled.
An update
Been dealing with severe art block as of late, and also an irritation to my left eye. It's been difficult to focus on art and my motivation is in the pits. Trying to work that out, and will update peeps soon on this development.
Taking on commissions
Because i've been losing hours at work recently (heck, this week i have only one day of work) (See Below) Here are my prices; if there are any questions or concerns as to what i will/will not draw, feel free to bring it up for discussion. Do note; not taking any BG pics or FULL pieces atm (currently have one and have classes to worry about, so that will be the only one for now) If you like my work and want to support, there are ways to do so if you don't want a large commission: https://www.patreon.com/tofubread My patreon is active and by subscribing to certain tiers, you get monthly rewards from me. Feel free to check out and if it interests you guys. There's also just the minimal tier as well if you want to throw minor pocket change also, which helps :) https://ko-fi.com/tofubread There's also my Ko-fi. Mostly now just my tip jar, and sometimes i'll do sketches for peeps depending on the donation. Thank you guys again for the continued support, and feel free to check
Update
Been a while and things have been kind of on and off.
Things have been kind of on a downward spiral emotionally here on my end, feeling depressed as of late (probably cause of routine with my shit job and i'm still looking) and also anxious as the new semester approaches. My plan on securing a new job before then didn't work out and wondering if i'm just stuck in one place right now, leaving me kind of feeling crappy.
It's had an impact on my art; been slower than normal and trying to pick up the pace. Also, had no idea the comments were disabled on my latest piece? That was just weird (now fixed)
