I hope things improve for you. I've been great on my end. Just put out my first actually assembled universe. I'm so happy to finally share DownWind with the world.

Apart from a course the government is making me do on tourism (wow that seems redundant right now with current circumstances XD) I've been considerably well. Working on my persona for an eventual planned YouTube channel and working on a fart fetish oriented comic series based in Norse mythology that I've long been wanting to do.

Both sound pretty cool and interesting. I wouldn't mind checking them out once you get started with them, the comic series especially has me curious

Its been a lot of work researching for the world's foundation alone. Norse mythology and old Norse culture are incredibly scattered and hard to find details on because it was largely an oral culture. So most of it is lost unfortunately. And then a decent bit more is subject to Christian influences so you have to pluck through that too.
Loki, especially for example due to him being their trickster god, seems to have been heavily influenced by being lumped as this Devil alternative when really all implication possibly places him as one of the nicest of these deities if I'm to be honest. Odin and Loki were blood brothers (they formed a sort of pact or bond with each other) for Heaven's sake and lLoki even inadvertently got himself pregnant by a horse in the course of distracting it in order to undo one of Odin's stupid bets (and yes this makes Loki a father of 3 and a mother of 1).

Well... not something I expected to learn, but alrighty then

It was surprising to learn how workable dwarves are. The actual mythological dwarf is suitably similar to the pop culture one but also different. They're a race of short humanoids who are expert craftsmen. Much like the pop culture idea of the dwarf. However, in addition, they are also avid shapeshifters who frequently change into animals or even the tools other dwarves use. They were also born from giant maggots that ate their way out from the corpse of the first being Ymir who were then given human understanding by the gods and in turn took on human like forms. With all this in mind it made sense to give my dwarves an insect aesthetic too them.

Yeah, makes sense, and sounds pretty cool too. If I had made a dwarf character myself, I probably wouldn't have done enough research to get ideas like that, truthfully.

Yeah and there is certainly nothing wrong with just pulling from the general fantasy dwarves. But it can be fun to go for new angles too and sometimes the best new angles can come from the oldest angles.

That definitely seems to be the case
