Last year I resolved to do more CREATIVE THINGS (construed quite broadly), and part of that was producing a little self-portrait every month. I’ve been doing these every few months for years and years now (the original template was from 4chan back in the late 2000s),  but this was the first time I did them regularly. As with most things about me, it’s partly narcissism but mostly laying the foundations of future nostalgia, so another me one day can look back at what I wore and and cared about in the pandemic years, without having to struggle with the useless memory we share.

I do these in Paint Tool SAI and add the text in MS Paint. I’m not sure yet if it’s worth doing the same for 2022 (or if I want to share this sort of thing on the regular), but it was a fun little thing.
