So I did 4 pieces of art today after many days (months) of piss all and there's a reason for that. I've had the pleasure of going to a ren faire-ish festival this weekend and it was so well put together I barely thought about the state of everything the whole weekend. It refreshed me! ...

More dice character. In my head tabaxi totally have a range from fuzzy cartoon animal to realistic furry :D ran out of steam before redesigning the walking backpack companion but who cares. The dice are liquid core and do have little cats on em, see! I think this guy's gonna be a wizard

cat wizard

sketching characters for all the silly new dice I bought this weekend..I need a name for this gemstone crafting half orc barbarian, who exists because the mystery dice I bought (right) were geode dice (cool)

I hope I'm allowed to be a feminist and also think Supergirl was a boring slog. My req would be to see Predator Badlands instead which is what I think this movie wanted to be: a fun franchise space romp with some emotional depth to it.

I know another heatwave is coming so I am enjoying the rain so much today. Got myself a little treat. But damn the weather tables have turned, haven't they. It feels almost obscene to celebrate a rainy cold day like this as a Scandinavian!

I have a linguistic question...so, I've been hearing the phrase "make [usually victim] whole" a lot lately. I'd never heard the phrase for the majority of my life and then like a month ago everyone started saying it. What's up with that?

“Someone should invent a high tech self-replicating machine that uses solar energy to remove carbon from the air and turn it into a sustainable building material. Oh wait, that’s what trees are.” (Surveee) Alaska is home to two of the nation’s largest national forests: the Chugach and Tongass :-)}

Painting or putting any nails in the walls of a rental meant bye bye deposit or a lot more work when inevitably moving. IKEA only sold cheap couches in black and beige. Listennnn this was not and never has been a choice. Personally I think sage green is the shit and would paint everything in it

No fuck off we're not calling this "Millennial grey" this shit was dictated completely by boomer retiree house flippers we absolutely had NO say in this

Millennial grey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A kitchen with beige grey floors, drab walls, brushed steel appliances, and grey granite countertops.
Grey floors and furnishings are said to appeal to Millennial tastes.
Millennial grey refers to a desaturated colour scheme that is said to appeal to the interior design sensibilities of the Millennial Generation in the early 21st century.[1] Cultural historian Kassia St. Clair attributed its widespread adoption to a desire among Millennials for "a flexible, sensible choice that will last years, hide any stains, and can be adapted to different schemes."[1] Some have diagnosed Millennial grey as a reaction to the warm hues of the late 20th century.[2]

Millennial grey is polarising, particularly when used with imitation-wood-texture sheet vinyl flooring, which many describe as depressing, soulless, or corporate.[3][4] Although attributed to Millennials, the grey colour scheme is often chosen by house flippers, vacation rental owners, or other people who do not actually live in the greyed properties.[3] Thus, the occupant of the property—Millennial or not—has little say in its colour scheme, particularly when deployed for fixtures such as flooring.[4] The greying may have been driven, in part, by a desire to prepare properties for sale in a manner thought to be least offensive to the average buyer.[5] Given the housing crises gripping many countries in the early to mid-21st century, buyers and renters may feel they have no choice but to accept a property decked in Millennial grey.[4]

To the extent that Millennial grey is said to be enjoyed by Millennials, it is also said to be loathed by Generation Z.[1][2]

Interesting clause in Norwegian phone service contract; customer is not permitted to upload any agreements, personal information or confidential information to any open LLMs where the data can be used for further training (so, most of them). Interesting change in the wind, there

I would translate this but since the clause includes "agreements" I would potentially be violating the agreement, wouldn't I!

As my dental adventure continues, important PSA to all my fellow hyperphantasia enjoyers: use that shit at the dentist. I just absolutely go somewhere else and map the sounds to random shit; pretending to be a cool mining dwarf works well but if you need to go further bees and other insects work too

I'll make a list of the features I need from a substance painter replacement: -The ability to paint RGB mask maps but preview them in different colors than the RGB -Projection with very good controls (warp etc) -The vector stroke stuff. I never wanna zbrush a line again, you see.

the feeling of having one last tether to adobe because there's some things only substance painter can do feels like...I've gotten rid of every mosquito in the room except one
