Sick bunpaca month (end of the month blog post - 28.02.2026)

Wow, it's that time again huh? Considering that February is a short month I thought I'd forget about this...

Anyways, welcome to the another end of the month blog post. No fancy social preview thumbnail for it this time because I'm taking it easy for the most part, but hopefully next month I'll do one again.

So... as the title says, I got sick! Yippee! I'm not sure why because I haven't went out anywhere and my mom wasn't sick either but one day I woke up constantly coughing. At first I thought it was laryngitis but turns out it wasn't the case... I was bedridden with upcoming fever on Valentine's night and I didn't get proper sleep with all of that constant coughing and runny nose. It was hell.

Luckily, I've almost recovered now! But as I said at the beginning of the blog post I'm currently taking it easy for the most part so it's gonna take a little while to get back into the swing of things. The way of doing that was me doodling Chiikawa!Lerun giving some positive affirmations. So far I've done two of them. I was planning to do more, but then BAM! Pokemon Gen 10 starters have been revealed in the recent Pokemon Presents for its 30th anniversary! (Can't believe it's been that long...) Pombon is definitely my favorite! I already drew it and I'll be drawing others too so I'm gonna be in Pokemon art jail for probably the entire week at this point, haha.

Aside from Pokemon stuff... recently I decided to try out blento, an ATProto-based bento alternative since it has shutdown this month... and let me tell you, it's a really neat thingy! Originally I was planning to use it as a temporary placeholder until I can finally release my Leaflet docs with my stuff but I think at the moment I feel comfy enough to make it permanent. So if you're interested then you can check out my blento here! So with that being said, expect a new pinned post on Bluesky coming sometime in March to reflect it. (I'm probably gonna keep the artwork from my current one as a banner though haha)

So... March is coming, which means... it's gonna be 3 years since my aunt has passed away. The beginning of the month will be always sad for me because of this. I miss her so much. I wish she'd be still here. She was taken away quite too soon. I just hope she's doing good up there.

We're almost at the end of this blog post, so... time for the general stuff.

February has been yet another rollercoaster.

More age verification has been spreading around and this time Discord is planning to roll out globally. Originally they were planning to do that in March but because of backlash due to Persona (oh boy, who could have guessed!) they've delayed it to later this year... which means it's not over yet. Keep cancelling your Nitro, don't give them a single dime. And please keep looking for the alternatives just in case!

Evil people in power keep doing their best to take away people's rights to exist properly and it's just so sad to see the world being on fire on almost daily basis...

Despite everything, I'm still trying my best to not give up during those dark times. I wanna keep doing things I love, I wanna reach out to people more... I'm gonna keep fighting no matter what... even if it may be harder now. I gotta keep doing my best. We all are.

This is where the blog post ends.

Thank you so much for reading.

From now on I'm gonna say this every time I end my end of the month blog posts: please make sure to take care of yourself. Don't forget to stretch, hydrate, eat proper meals and rest well. Don't work too hard and don't scroll social media too much. And always remember: love is stronger than hate!

I'll see you in the next blog post!
