Welcome to Unreality

Time for a Rebrand!

New Art, New Animations, New Merch All Coming in the New Year!

My silence has gone on for long enough. I should probably explain what has been going on!

There’s some changes happening here! Important changes! BIG changes!

Let’s start with the bigger ones: My Etsy shop is closed effective immediately, and I will no longer be doing any conventions under the Mandiness Entertainment banner.

I am closing my Etsy because of a few reasons…Canada Post strikes are more of a tradition now than Christmas is as this point, tariffs exist, I haven’t made any sales at all this year, and the first person to message me for being interested in my products was expecting more than 50% off each item in his order because he was buying in bulk. So basically I would be paying him to buy eight pairs of pixelated boxers. That felt like a slap in the face after having no sales for 10 months and that ended up being my final straw to close my Etsy shop.

My pixelated boxer patterns will be available as various clothing patterns on Redbubble in the coming days, so you can still wear them as socks, leggings, shirts, dresses and a few other things. They just won’t be available as boxers anymore.

As for the conventions…

I only made $7 in gross profits at CompassCon Leaside back during the Easter weekend. I was already hesitant to do conventions this year with the tariff situation and consumers being more aware of where the products they are buying are being manufactured, but I gave CompassCon Leaside a try and it ended up being a flop unfortunately. I was entertaining the idea of doing Viva La Leaside at the start of August but talked myself out of it for non-reasons. I’m hoping that didn’t burn any bridges for future attempts to book a booth at that event, because it is one I am genuinely interested in.

I will not be doing any conventions at all under Mandiness Entertainment, but I do hope to have merchandise designs finalized under my rebrand within 6-12 months so I can maybe attempt Viva La Leaside next year and do some Pop Culture Canada shows again.

What about the rebrand?

There will be a soft launch of the rebrand sometime in December of this year, and then a hard launch in January 2026. Although there may be small nods or throwbacks to some of my creations from Mandiness Entertainment, the rebrand itself is mostly a separate entity. It will have a new Instagram account separate from the current Mandiness Entertainment one. The new account will focus on uploading polished content roughly once every three weeks. DMs will be closed on the new account so followers can focus on consuming the content posted rather than trying to start any parasocial nonsense with me. I am keeping Mandiness Entertainment’s Instagram account active for those who are unable to stay in contact with me by any other means, or for those who like my current art but may not be a fan of what the rebrand brings.

I am adding a little tidbit here because I feel like nobody comes to this site to check for updates, so this will be my little easter egg to see if anyone comes here haha…The rebrand will be a series of animated shorts revolving around the daily lives of a pair of main characters. I know that’s very vague and generic but it’s more information than what I’ve shared on Instagram so if you know this much, I’ll know this website is worth maintaining haha.

So yeah…there will be minimal art under the Mandiness Entertainment brand moving forward. Basically if/when inspiration strikes and I have the time and energy to follow through with that inspiration, I’ll post something on the existing Instagram account. Otherwise it will be full throttle for the new brand, starting with posting the episodes online and then working on finalizing merch for future conventions.

Exciting news, isn’t it? Thanks for sticking it out with me so far. If you like the rebranded stuff when that rolls out, that’s fantastic and I appreciate all the support. If not, thanks for all the support up until this point!
