Hypnotherapist: …and you sink much deeper, you should be asleep now. Now tell me, what-
Me: hi! hi!!! hi!!
Therapist: how the hell did you turn into one of those god damned pokemon animals
Me: happens :3
Not even ‘wtf it‘s dark outside already?!’ but more feeling ‘how the hell is it only nearly 8?‘, just feels later than usual with being pitch black. My body’s practically anticipating the next daylight saving change or something idk
Only you can assess wasted time. It’s about whether you’re comfortable in your actions and not someone else’s sense of productivity. For me a day productive can be wasted just as much as a day doing nothing if I’m dissatisfied afterwards, just as easily both can be cause to a great day
I think a really funny thing of not-quite-decay aging of buildings is when something’s purpose-built to look old a long time ago and it faces the same gentle aging it was emulating
This one especially encapsulates that but previous photo looked better. Old print, made to look ‘green’ like a faded photo or painting, now carrying the same loss of colors from lights and aging that it was designed to look like
Was saving some stuff for a funny later but now I feel like I’m going crazy there’s like 2-3 different versions of the Laura Palmer Portrait. Different smile and slightly different head tilt. Match the top of the chin to the side of the neck for each
Hate to say some ‘met an NPC‘ shit but idk asking if I’ve seen ’The New Endgame’ does NOT spark conversation when I‘m talking about Texas Chainsaw Saw Massacre for recent movie watching
Broader sense of art growth posting, it’s strange to think about ‘medium’ in digital art. Eight-ish years ago just learning how to manipulate win7 paint to get color textures outta 2-bit mode I probably wouldn’t have scoped layering multiple effects on my art from a VCR and video mixer
In a funny way of putting things I'm at a 'moving waterfall picture' phase towards making video art. A lot of what limits me is learning to layer things in good timing and beginning the journey to learn to make animation. I'm slow like persistence hunting, I'll get there soon enough
Few times where use of Jojo is begrudging but serves well for reference to an idea
1 - vertical multi or mirror, solid background, chroma original on top
2 - swipe that replaces mirror with ‘inverted’ camera feedback on lumi-key
3 - strobe delay on camera feedback, change to lumi-key, pose change
‘Slice of life‘ needs to be a broader phrase. People look at me funny when I say it because it’s associated to anime but for example that sitcom Modern Family is more about everyday lives compared to Malcolm in the Middle as a coming-of-age comedy
For example, assuming only sitcoms:
- isolated story each episode: standard sitcom
- everyday lives with some broader plot: slice of life
- focused on a character growing up: coming-of-age

Getting back into atlyss (the furry mmo-like game) in apt timing to find a large update is closer on the horizon than I thought. New character I’m shaping up is DPS weapon, aggro crowd control skill, min-max damage stats against heavy defense (all armor enchanted to ‘guardian’)
forgot how much work it takes to progress once you hit the current slightly-below-mid-level range but didn't take long to rewire my play style for depending more on parry in this game
Here and ‘now’ it’s
- hit Lv 15 for mithril katars
- use other character to farm mining tools —> enchant current armor all to ‘guardian’
When next update hits
- respec skills to add unarmed mastery (lose strength mastery?)
- see what’s in store for berserker subclass

For reference my first (currently maxed out) character is a specific one-man-army build I do for these types of games: glass cannon damage against defense, hit-and-run playstyle, just enough HP to graze past a slip-up. Armor defense sacrifice is balanced out with shield/ parry and evade for this one
Every time I have creators’ guilt with attempting to make music I think what I make sounds like how I remember this sounds, then I actually go listen to it and both enjoying and giggling a little at how unashamedly crazy it is makes me feel better
Y’know what, it’s been 2 weeks, I gotta remove dye from a jacket, I might finally try to see what I can pull off (in the sense of minimizing the smell and fumes) for some white brite in my current place
Shameful simulacrum, we have offered ourselves. The barrier closed and all we do is imitate the gates. The air is too choked with new bandwidth and interference for a connection anyways. The mind’s eye can only do so much to fantasize what laid on the other side
It always comes back to this for me; if AI was so good, such a disclosure would be a selling point. If AI was everything these slop jockeys said it was, they should be proud to let people know their game was AI made. But the proof is in the pudding, and they can't stand that people don't want it.
