A Little Personal Rant
🕑 Added 2025-11-09 18:19:02 +0000 UTCI will be honest with you as I always have been, and there is no point in hiding the state of mind I am in.
I am scared, very scared.
I didn't expect to be successful here on Patreon, to be honest, and I hadn't considered the tax implications of what it could be.
I will never stop thanking you for your support and all your words of admiration, you have been really important to me, but in the face of certain incredible complications, I am seriously considering closing my Patreon by December.
The world seems to be going crazy, and creators of images intended for an adult audience seem to have become the new devil.
I also have a main job, so I can't risk so much for something that has been and I want to remain a simple hobby.
I feel like crying, and anxiety is taking over every day, all for something as terribly simple as paying the taxes I actually owe. Instead, everything seems like a nightmare, a continuous stream of uncertainties and doubts that never give you the certainty of saying, "I did things right," but everything seems like a gray area. A gray area that I don't want to have.
This week, I'll be meeting with yet another tax advisor, but the choice will probably be 90% certain.
Obviously, I'll keep you updated!
My Twitter profile will remain active, of course, but I'm really sorry... I have tears in my eyes and I can't understand how a state can make life so complicated that you want to give up everything.

I hope you find a good life balance and relationship with your art again. There will always be assholes putting you down regardless of your art form. I pursued tattooing for a while before it was super mainstream and the shit I got from my family was unreal. Don’t take the critics to heart. If they don’t like it they can fuck off because we love your art and clearly there’s a demand for it. But I get it; I had to step back from taking commission work because it killed my love for my hobbies. You really do have a talent here and I’d be sad to see the Patreon go, but keeping it to a small community would be just fine. ❤️
