I mean, how do you even do it?

On Bluesky a lot of the artists I follow for their personal work have started declaring 2026 will be the year for the OC and I want to join in but even though I watch them constantly post about their own OCs, I feel like I haven't quite... picked up on how to do it myself. Or if I even have one that I can fit into such a small space. The characters I've had with me for over 30 years are too unwieldy to ever be exposed to the outside and I'm not sure how to pick out a newer one.

For 2026 my resolutions are:

Play more games
Be more outwardly self indulgent
Redecorate my living space more often
Finish more books
Get my degree
Double my comic output
Use my all my fun food cooking devices!
Eat more vegetables
Moisturize more


I think that's a good list.
