Due to X's newest changes, the mod team has finally decided that we have had enough. To protect us and all our contributors, we will no longer be posting on that platform! The account will still exist, so you can contact us or tag us! Please find any new posts on Instagram, Tumblr, and here!

We wish all of our creative friends a #HappyNewYear! 🎆🎉 Good luck on all of your goals and we hope that you can keep up with your resolutions throughout 2026. Just don't forget to go at your own pace! 🫡
