Hello! I’m back from a short break I took! I wanted to write this one out because I plan to be more active with my website from now on.

I had been regularly posting on Instagram pretty much every day for the last year or so. And that can become…stressful.

I wanted a small break not just to give myself a ‘dopamine detox’ but also to think about the future and what exactly I want to do.

When I had thought of creating cynyassy I was younger and angrier. At the world. At my loved ones. At my myself for not being everything I imagined myself to be and couldn’t be.

I thought being cynical would be…cool? Something that allowed me to be funny and irreverent.

But over time being cynyassy has become something else altogether. I still want to be cynical, but about all the stories I was handed down about the world and myself.

I want to critically examine my life and my beliefs as I try to create a new idea of who I am.

So when I say I am being cynical, I also want to keep an eye on what is the reality of this moment, and what beliefs I operate from today.

I want to be cynical respectfully – if there even is such a thing. And treat myself gently through this process. Because I am sure that learning that there are things I might believe in that aren’t true…that’s going going to be harsh.

And honestly there are so many ideas out there that I need to assimilate. One of the things that I am proud of is that I am a part of a thriving creator community that is out there trying to change deeply held beliefs.

These beliefs, perhaps they used to be useful, but now deserve closer examination so that we can move on to building better worlds for each other. All while being respectful and patient with each other.

I believe we can do this. I think it’s possible. Of course the first step is with ourselves, but a community which practices those principles with each other? I think that would expedite the process.

And that’s the basis on which I will be making more comics! I also really want to have fun with storytelling. So you’re going to see animations, different kinds of comics, collaborations and what not.

You can support me on patreon here.

I’ve been scared of putting my voice and face out there in public because…well because I guess I judge myself in a number of ways. So while it might not be overt and not all of a sudden, I want to push myself to do these things.

Also you’re going to see some very casual doodles here. I don’t want to be too precise, this blog is also about having fun!

I hope you keep coming back. I want to keep working on ideas I think are both fascinating and important to explore.

And on that note, thank you for being here! See ya soon!
