I have basically no self-esteem whatsoever, and feel awkward and anxious asking to work on something with anybody else, so ... having something that I can contribute to and feel confident that I can do is something I don't think I could let go of right now...
I ... don't really feel comfortable backing off or dropping it, though? I worry that I'd end up feeling guilty about not doing enough and letting down everybody who has been working on it with me, and also just wouldn't know what else I should be doing...
I know I don't talk about much else, anymore, because... I've kind of let this project entirely consume my life, to the point where I haven't been taking care of myself at all some days...
I feel like people probably won't care about me much unless I have some accomplishment I can show and say "I made this!", and working on this project has given me a reason to believe I might actually be worth something...
@Motodrachen I feel like I never have much to say about anything, and that most people are off doing things with other people or talking with their other friends, so I don't really matter or belong with them...
And ... even if people notice, like you... I worry that talking with me is exhausting, or burdening, or just not interesting, and so I feel like I just shouldn't be here intruding this way...
heads up if you ever use gimp for redacting screenshots and the like
with the default settings, "clear", or the delete key, only makes a region transparent but doesn't delete the colour info. it can easily be retrieved
ways to fix this are:
1. uncheck "save colour values from transparent pixels" when exporting
2. put a fresh transparent layer underneath everything, its colour info (pure black) will be saved instead
3. just fill the area with a solid colour instead
3.1. or save as jpeg

@awoofriend Should this have been https://furrytf.club/ ?
I'm glad I've gotten this far, but ... things won't be better for me until I can get out of debt and support myself somehow.
And I don't think I'll be actually happy until I can do what I enjoy and support myself doing it, which ... almost certainly will never happen.
But I like keeping in mind where my ultimate goal is, even if it's unattainable.
