Random Chatterings

CW: Existentialism, Ableism, Burnout, Mental Health, Depression

This week, Arlill records a therapy session with their podcast (hold on, stay with me now) and talks about the struggles of producing art in 2024 but how they will confront those struggles to produce better episodes for the rest of the year.

Correction: we have 9 WIP projects that are in the back burner. Pray for me lol
