Trying to do what you love, especially something meaningful, is hard.
Trying to do that same thing with disabilities is harder.
Finding out that the very social media you use has decided to restrict your content and you have no recourse to challenge the decision (yes, despite there being no violations to show!) is basically a death sentence for creators that rely on social media reach because they can't make it to physical events.
I'm recovering from a major operation with a serious post-op complication. It has me out of action until the end of February, at least. I don't know what this means for the future of Pastel Poisons, especially if social media keeps getting further restricted. My website doesn't make enough sales to cover the monthly hosting fees, and I rely entirely on word-of-mouth and people sharing my work on social media to drum up any sales I DO get.
But hey, at least I now have the option to generate AI photos through the page, right? π«€
