Things I was frightened of as a child: The knot in a step of the staircase to my bedroom that looked like an eye Footbridges with no guardrail The long-legged spiders in the bathroom That one point and click pc game my mom loved (Black Mirror 2003) The shadows and deaths in Heart of Darkness (1998)

Things I was frightened of as a child: The x files theme song also Beethoven's toccata and fugue in D minor Safety awareness video of a man getting hit by a car Real human skull in my dad's study and the glass eyes that he put into its empty sockets

Struggling between "if i put more effort into my social media perhaps my art would reach more people" and "if i put more effort in and i don't get any results i might pull the plus this time"

Finished this commission last month or so - struggled with it a bit, not even because of technical difficulties, I was just intimidated by all those lines LMAO really happy with the result though

I'm on a long weekend until next Monday and I'm away on Saturday and Sunday but ☝️ i could spend tomorrow making myself a nice pj set while watching pm. Kinda wanted to start today but i am so so tired so perhaps i will take a nap for now and maybe do some midnight sewing later

Downside of my 7h straight of pattern drafting from yesterday is that I'm caught up on Critical Role Upside is that that means i can watch some more Private Nightmares guilt free :) (IF i can bring myself to start that episode again. Shit was going down last i was there)

This is what I point to when folks try to justify genAI. "It's not so bad as long as they don't sell it." Meanwhile, these data centers are swallowing up resources, ruining local water infrastructure, & not really caring. All for plagiarized slop. It's gross. Every use counts. Every single one.

“officials discovered two industrial-scale water hookups feeding a data center campus located 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta. One water connection had been installed without the utility’s knowledge, and the other was not linked to the company’s account and therefore wasn’t being billed.”

lrp Funny story about my experience with O Brother Where Art Thou, I first watched it during a family movie night some time back when I was in middle school and quite liked it but deffo did NOT understand it as an Odyssey retelling.
