For those who are new...
My main hobbies are creating YouTube videos and drawing as a self-taught artist, while still learning how to improve throughout.On YouTube, my content varies over time but it tends to alternate between short joke videos of certain genres, longer videos such as YTPs, or recreated/fake TV bumpers (e.g. Disney Channel).I usually draw fanart (e.g. Nintendo & other video games, cartoons) but I'm planning to showcase either a bit of fan lore or original/fan characters in the future. I don't see myself as being specifically part of certain fandoms due to toxicity that may exist there.I'm also very into gaming, and to a lesser extent, programming and writing, and I have a weak spot for obscure cartoons.Personal
I have been diagnosed with Asperger's at an early age, and I have historically had many varying difficulties in terms of socializing, including social anxiety. I'm usually too shy to communicate directly and have trouble thinking about what to say in a short-term period. As a result, I tend to not be very talkative and may answer a bit late to DMs, however I still try to be nice when I can.My native language is Arabic (Darija dialect) but being exposed to English-language media and the Internet at an early age has resulted in my level of English actually exceeding my other spoken languages (to the point where I sometimes use English loanwords).I'm also a basic intermediate in French, and novice in Spanish.
Current general interests:
Self-help, mental health
Writing (novels, articles)

Travel
Vintage/retro software & tech

YouTube Status
Some fellow people on YouTube noticed that I used to take requests for fake Disney Channel bumpers. I have mostly lost interest in those for the time being, although the chance of me making another in the near future is basically randomized at this point. It depends on whether I'm motivated in the end.
Art Status/Commishes
Regarding commissions, I am currently pending a switch to PayPal commissions once I'm eventually able to open an account and get through remaining point commissions I may have on DA.
The status on DeviantArt currently says that point commissions are open, although please note that this is moribund and I am not taking any new ones for the time being.Reposting my art on Instagram, Twitter/X or Bluesky (i.e. making an entirely separate post) is allowed as long as you credit me.
