Waking up in the morning to the rhythm of rain is always a great way to start the day. Even better way to start the week. I'll take that as a good sign.

Was helping a younger family member decide on equipment to do digital art with and I couldn't stop laughing after I showed them my desktop PC, because they described it as "boomer beige" lol

I never messed with the sliders before and decided to do rich resources to ease up on things a bit. I didn't think max sliders gave you THAT much, lol. This should be fun as I am starting entirely from scratch with no blueprints or even achievements, so it'll be like starting as a newbie. #Factorio

Starting area of a new game in Factorio. The crashed ship has not been removed and the player is surrounded by minerals and a lake.
T

Starting a new session because Factorio through steam has been giving me issues randomly with performance suddenly and weirdly runs better using proton when that happens. However that causes problems with save data( i know I can move them shhh) so I switched to the stand-alone client.

It doesn't take a lot of effort to write decent alt text. I won't harass you or comment on your posts to include it, but it does make it harder or impossible for me and others with far more severe challenges to take part in your image/video oriented posts.

T

Reminder from your friendly neighborhood Imp, that alt text helps create inclusive spaces and is a great way to add clarifying context for both persons with and without challenges. You can also set an option requiring alt text if you're missing it due to forgetting. Its a nice habit to get into.

A common reason I often hear people don't add alt text for their images is because they simply forget. You can enable an option to require it before publishing a post in Settings>Accessibility. These options are session based so you may need to recheck them when logging in on a new browser/device.

Screenshot of accessibility options to require alt text before posting and an option to display larger alt text badges.

Considering designing stickers and other merch for sale. Any recommendation for print(and ship) on demand services that are good these days? I'm considering using Printful, but open to considering other options.

BUNS FOR THE BUN GOD! Had to make a few phone calls today and had a surprise interview. However I spent the remaining evening having some personal "me" time and baked a batch of tofu buns for myself and family. Always find cooking to be a nice way to relax a bit. #Food

A baking dish filled with a batch of tofu filled buns surrounded by several bunny figurines. From left to right we have Anima Circuit Vio the Rabbit, Sam from Sam and MAx, and Mirko from My Hero Academia presenting the food to the viewer.

Also Thank you to everyone with a pending commission sketch for your patience as I navigated the transition to a new chapter in my life the past couple months. Now that things have mostly been straightened out and my workstation is back in order I can work work on these again.

I swear sometimes I just really can't tell if this place is just breaking or its something on my end, so I just assume that at any given time atproto(and all its various web views) is just dysfunctional(sometimes socially too) in some way shape or form while I am using it.

Guess no Art Fight this year for me either. Just too much going on and I'm not rushing out art for it as I have other things I want to do. Maybe next year if things don't go south or if they make the event longer.

I also got really lucky today with a refurbished 2020 M1 macbook air I purchased to supplement some things I can't do easily(or at all) on Linux. Its pretty close to brand new with no issues, but I'll keep an eye on it. I have a year to return it if I'm not happy, but so far lookin great!

Woke up this morning to an approval notice for the last document I needed processed by government agency. I also got my new health coverage plans fully activated Friday and docs are working on reauthorizing my treatment so I can finally breathe! What a headache these 2 months(and more lol) have been

Been working on my OCs, now my half-satyr goblin has a name (Capridora!) and a whole family with 2 siblings and 3 parents. The goblin's biology is taking shape and it is needlessly complex and Very self-indulgent. I have a few short stories planned on this but feel free to ask questions!

a page full of sketches, with a diagram in the middle and a small character on the left. The character is a goblin child with goat eyes, ears, and tail. They have two pair of horns, the bigger one are labeled "actual horns, will headbutt". Under the child is written "Capridora's little sibling: Terho. Also Half-satyr". 
The diagram has 6 characters: Three parents and three children. The oldest child is called Shai and is labeled as "Goblin, 83cm, carpenter-joiner and woodcarver". The second is Capridora, half-satyr, 1m20, scientist. The last child is Terho, half-satyr, 45cm, activity: child, menace.
The first parent is a satyr with cornrows gathered in a ponytail and large horns. He is labeled: "Panteleimon, Pentelis for short, 1m45, carpenter. He is marked as father of Capridora and Terho. The second is a goblin called Tuija, 85cm, tailor. She is marked as mother of Terho and Shai. An arrow between Pantelis and Tuija says "couple, live together and raise the 3 kids. The third parent is a goblin named Unto, and is labeled: "absent parent, goblin, 95cm, traveler, sex worker. Like snufkin if snufkin was a slut." They are marked as mother of Capridora and father of Shai.

I wasn't aware of the details for multiplayer part of Splatoon Raiders. It is adorable they do a group shot after the raid is done. Curious if it does the same for a failed raid, but I won't throw a run just out of curiosity. I am just glad I can help others. #Nintendo #SplatoonRaiders

I finally got to sit down and play Splatoon Raiders this morning. Im not done yet, but I think its a great entry and solid gameplay. I feel this specifically caters very well to people(like me) who enjoyed Salmon Run and the story modes. Enjoy that I can help others too. #Nintendo #SplatoonRaiders

Need more Splatoon friends to yap with, there is so many cool things I'm enjoying about Raiders and I like that the series seems to progressively learn and take notes from their previous entries.
