I opened up my pictures folder where my art folder is located, only to find it mysteriously missing. Fuck.

I check my recycling bin and it only has 3 images in it. Wait, didn't I clear it literally 3 hours ago?

Fuck. fuck. fuck. fuck. fuck.

I should've looked at the files before emptying.

Turns out my MANY (probably 4-5) years of artwork have all been deleted. Randomly. Which is just extra terrible because I'm the type of person that likes to keep all my artwork no matter how old or cringey. You know, stuff I drew in 3rd grade even. Did I do this? Hell no. It takes three clicks to delete a file. I'm not that fucking stupid to not notice that I'm deleting my art folder. It just fucking deleted itself I guess for no reason.

And I guess I could say that well, I have all the results (pngs) saved still. I have those images. But what about the sketches??? The art I didn't post???? The animations which I haven't finished????

Gone.

I uploaded some of my Clip Studio stuff to the cloud and I go to download it but for some reason I can only download it and rewrite the original version that I don't have because it fucking deleted itself so I can't even redownload it from the cloud which I specifically uploaded there in case anything like this ever happened. Like why can't I just download it like normal??????

So I downloaded some file recovery programs like Recuva and EaseUS, I even paid for that shit, but did they work? Only partially. They could only recover SOME of the medibang files. Clip Studio and Krita? Where I mainly draw and animate nowadays? Gone.

I mean I already kinda had artblock for digital art, but that doesn't mean I still don't want to look at my digital art, or you know, go back to it when my artblock is over with.

Don't expect digital art from me soon.

That's it. The End. No resolution, just pain.
