Got a new #art piece done, I think I'm going to sleep on it, but assuming I'm happy with it tomorrow, I'll share it.

Question, during the process of me making #art I make a bunch of weird, abstract, and experimental stuff. Would y'all be interested in seeing that stuff?

Top-down view of a lush, sunlit forest map from a game. A warm dirt path runs horizontally across the center and branches upward at a T-intersection. Dense green grass and leafy trees fill the scene, with small colorful flowers scattered throughout. Wooden lantern posts line parts of the path, and a small pond with a wooden edge sits in the upper right corner. Soft light beams filter through the trees, giving the environment a bright, vibrant atmosphere.

Top-down view of a vibrant forest game environment centered around a small pond. The water is a muted blue-green with visible ripples and a small splash near the middle, along with a few pink lily pads floating on the surface. A warm dirt path curves around the pond, bordered by dense grass, shrubs, and tall leafy trees. In the upper left, a small log cabin with a green roof sits against a stone wall, with a thin plume of smoke rising from its chimney. Wooden fence posts and a lantern line the path, and sunlight filters through the trees, creating a bright, peaceful woodland atmosphere.

Here's a look at the first part of the redesigned first route. I was going to save this for an overhaul look with the rest of the redesigned parts, but I haven't been able to get time to work on my game. So here's a small update.

Anything more and it stops being what I want. So for this piece, it's as good as it's getting. I'll take what I learned here and carry on.

I actually think this one is done. I've tried working on it more and I can't really carry the idea of what I was going for any further. So just pretend my name is on it and it's dated.

Want an example? Look at an ant colony. They have empires built in days. They work as one. If ants can do that, imagine what we could accomplish if we moved as one.

So, take care of yourself, your neighbor, and each other. Don't lose that hope, love, joy for life, or care for your fellow human beings.

Separated we are weak, together we are strong.

Never forget that any power a government has, is the power that the people relinquish to it.

A government exists for its people, the people do not exist for the government.

The powerful want division and hopelessness. Don't let them have it.

Different country names, different flags, different people, different beliefs, same results: Always worse than when we started.

It's about the significance of the gesture really. Rings are just the standard form people express that gesture. So, I say go for it.

Definitely Pokรฉmon HGSS and BW/BW2. The series was peaking around that time. They had gotten very good at sprites. I honestly wish they just go back to 2D sprite style games. They're still struggling with 3D games even now.

Tried making some art, turns out it's pretty difficult when all you have been averaging is like 4 hours of sleep for the past week due to a puppy.

Brain no work no more

Luckily, he's smart and knows something is wrong with his throat, so he's being quiet, not irritating his throat anymore, or making it more inflamed.

My poor baby boy Toffee has barked so much that he's hurt his throat.

I've got a humidifier, a fan, Benadryl, and I'm warming up his dry food and turning it into soup.

His Siberian Husky voice and Australian Shepherd energy, can't be contained in his little Pomeranian body ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Meanwhile, I censor myself in my head before I even start typing. If I feel I need to put an asterisk, then I just don't say it. Pretty simple rule. Y'all don't want me uncensored, I'd make a sailor blush lmao

It's not that I don't know how, it's that I don't care to pay $40 a month just for a PPV. People internationally have everything on Netflix. Raw, SmackDown, NXT, PPVs etc..

Meanwhile in America to keep up it's like $140. Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, and ESPN. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Not really that surprising. Just confirming what we already know. You are what you eaฬถtฬถ consume.

So we're really just gonna let the touchscreen be a pointless feature.

My wish for the 30th #Pokรฉmon anniversary is the return of the Pokรฉmon Ranger video game series, been wanting it to return for years!
