TW: blood, implied gore & anguish

You want this? Make your fucking calls. I don't care how awkward you are. You won't be able to express anything to anyone in a public forum. There will be nothing left for us.

Only suffering.

•No more art.
•No more expression of one's self.
•No more income from your regulars.
•No more online publishings
•No more community.

Just you handing your information over to a large surveillance network who will find you, arrest you, and possibly kill you.

This is the thought police they want.

You better wake the fuck up now. If we don't make their lives ABSOLUTELY FUCKING MISERABLE, we're going be the ones who get shafted. And HARD.

You best believe that everything about the Internet we know is going to die and everything we know and love with it.

I've made my calls today. You need to.

Hilde the cat, carrying a big pink gem, enters a chamber. Centre of the chamber is a large black dome with a white outline similar to the outlines of the panels themselves. The dome is surrounded by 6 slots, four of which have the other gem she collected inserted. Two slots are empty.

Hilde places a paw on the outside of the black dome. Inside the Dome, a white paw reaches back.

YouTube video titled "I built a new clock, and now I'm not sure what time it is" by Jeff Geerling, with a thumbnail of Jeff holding up a clock that is facing the camera and covering his face partially.

Rocket Exhaust Blender Shader Are you looking to up the realism of your artwork? Or maybe you just want to make your sci-fi spaceship that much cooler? Either way, this simple shader for you! It allows you to create perfect engine...

I used this:
bartekku100.gumroad.com/l/RocketShader
It’s really quite convenient

This is the second of six galaxies from Proposal 10550 I plan to process. They are all low surface brightness galaxies. I don't know much about them and that's why they interest me. There are very few Milky Way stars in this picture and many background galaxies for comparison to the foreground one. I tried to include as many as possible. Because these are remarkable for their lack of brightness, I have decided that it would be best to not try to brighten them a lot with processing, especially not relative to the other objects in the field.

It is not very noticeable but the chip gap is running vertically down the left side of the galaxy. It should be easy to see the faked filler zoomed 100%. It's just a thin line that would otherwise be blank that I've matched the brightness of the galaxy to and added some noise on top of. I used to think I shouldn't do this but if I always note that I did so then I think it is permissible. There are so many pictures in the archive that almost nobody will ever see otherwise.

North is NOT up. It is 16.7° counter-clockwise from up.

Would you clone yourself for a day?
Would you be a clone for a day?

During sleep You reabsorb you,
The day after both are you.

Would you do it again?

Had a blast doing the layouts for this scene in the latest Apex Legends trailer. I got to experiment with line art and toon shaders to aid the animators who finished up the scene in 2d.
