Scatterbrained and friendly optimist. Always happy to give my (unasked for) opinion :)
Pardon my rambling and broken English, I know I often sound like an alien trying to impersonate a human being.
There’s a difference? My submission yesterday was just a drawing with black ink and some shading and it was ok. And I’m nowhere near as good as you.
You could ask what’s accepted. But I’d say don’t overthink it, just join along :)
First of all, that’s an awesome hand drawing! I love it :)
There’s an !inktober@sh.itjust.works community if you’re interested. The list of daily prompts is posted there as well.
I had a bit too much fun with these :)
My partner stresses too much with work and I wish I could help more. But all I can do is give comfort and urge to at least let things go when at home.
Any practical advice is always brushed off, which I can understand. Sometimes you just need to vent and I don’t mind listening about what happened this time. I just hate seeing them like this, it does make me worry a bit about their health.
PICO-8, though it’s more of an on-and-off again project of trying to teach myself to program again.
But I like the limitations you have to work with, and even I can create some crude 8x8 sprites :)
I hate stinging nettles so much… They’re always the first to pop up in spring and ruin an otherwise nice walk in the forest.
Maps and compass. I like the reliability of finding my way no matter where I am. Plus it’s fun!
Especially the trick of using two landmarks to pinpoint my location on a map makes me feel like an old-fashioned navigator :)
A slipknot works great! It’s done in a second and easily undone as well.
I don’t know about over there, but here they’ve started selling them with paper straws. Making it even more impossible to puncture that stupid little hole while ruining the straw in the process.
And of course it’s the only thing my daughter wants to drink. I’ve had to resort to using a nail file to open those things.
Data corruption, it’s a bunch of garbled stuff that I can’t make heads or tails off.
Miraculously, everything keeps working. So I don’t dare to interfere because it might crash the system :)
Hey, it’s that thing I made/generated/whatever.
I thought you guys had a rule against AI stuff?
Yum, war fries :)
I’m hearing this in my head right now, thanks for that.
No, seriously, thanks. It’s a big improvement :)
I recently saw this one in the Mauritshuis in The Hague.
Really nice painting, and a great collection too!
Happy Birthday!
Sorry to hear about your birthday money, I hope you’ll still get to have nice day in spite of it!
I crochet little animals for friends and family.
Unasked, most of the time :)
Worrying what other people think of me.
I know I shouldn’t care, but it’s hard not to.
“Political ideologies, an introduction” by Andrew Heywood, is available for free online.
It was required reading for my history study in uni about ten years ago. This seems to be a newer edition. It’s quite a read, but it covers a lot of isms in a generally unbiased manner.
I visited the Mauritshuis earlier this year, their collection is really nice.
