I'm always disappointed to hear when someone doesn't set a New Year's resolution because "nobody ever finishes them." Don't let peoples vague, hard-to-quantify wishful musings stop you from taking advantage of The potent New Year energy!! A good resolution is a clearly defined goal that you can complete by the first quarter of the year, so set one!!
It's been a bumpy December for a lot of people. I have a habit of feeling bad when I can't meet certain holidays with the energy I feel they deserve, but today I want you to know that if you're feeling the same way due to world events, personal matters, or just because you woke up that way, that's ok! It's unfair to expect that of ourselves. If you can't meet the holiday with cheer, you can meet it with reflection, healing, quiet, gratitude, or anything else that suits you. You're not ruining anyone's day by doing so! Merry Christmas! 2026 will be a good year! I love you!๐ค
I don't think I've ever seen exponential growth so clearly telegraphed as it is with your work, Ani. Anyone that listens to what you do and says "oh, she's on a plateau rn" is either deaf or trying to hold you down. Nearly every single new major entry of yours is a huge concentrated LEAP in applied technique. Your trajectory is so far beyond anything any of us can imagine for you.
The end of Crystal socked me in the gut as it broke down into "I can imagine." Calculate tickles my freaking ddr Oni mode brain. Sunlight reminds me so starkly of a time where you might not have EVEN BEEN ALIVE YET!!!!!? Your range is so unbelievable. Every time you release, it's something I didn't even know you could do. You really do capture that Mega Man Classic feel of just "oh man she just installed that skill overnight. She's whipping out buzzsaws now" There's NO ceiling for you.
Bringing up past life is annoying when you don't want all future work to be shadowed by old stuff. People are POSSESSED by nostalgia and will drag you down memory lane over & over, giving you the gary coleman treatment going "Whatchu talkin bout, Willis?!" at you 20 years later
@CoachDorntastic You n me both, i have no earthly idea how I did this and in a short amount of time to boot. I guess I've watched it enough to internalize a lot of its conventions?? I'm honestly just as surprised as you are that I didn't biff it
@ani_meida the new mega man is going to be GOOD! They just.. Clearly didn't want to spoil the most exciting parts just yet!!! We must believe! We must BELIEVE IN THEM!
@Paetrius4 thank you!! this outfit was one that got crunched through the wringer 80 billion times and looks nothing like how it originally looked lol. it was supposed to be card suits theme look with hearts/diamonds/clubs/spades but it was too busy so i detoured into my safe space (vegas)
@TheSnazzboi im sending you to The Neighborhood of Make-believe!!! You will feel a cold sensation at the base of your spine where we put the 10 gauge needle! Do not pee!!!!
@TheKanManVT You gotta admit there's something about the fever dream pace of the whole thing. You're on train. You are suddenly in a moment from 20 years ago. You need to take down the president. The president has been replaced with a ghoul. You're going to the Moon. Your school is flying
