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 graphics packaging (e.g. Disney Channel, BBC).I'm also into drawing, programming and (maybe) writing. I usually do fanart, backgrounds or abstract art but I'm planning to showcase either a bit of fancanon lore or original/fan characters in the future. I don't see myself as being specifically a member of certain fandoms due to how toxic some tend to be.I have a weak spot for retro gaming, including most things Nintendo, and many cartoons generally, including obscure ones. :pPersonal
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, sometimes with trouble deciding what to say in the short-term, and occasionally even fear losing face if I make a mistake. As a result, I tend to not be very talkative, mostly avoid starting conversations directly, and may answer a bit late to DMs. I still try my best to be kind in those circumstances, though.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 an intermediate in French and a novice in Spanish and Japanese.

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.
