Kids today will never know the joy/agony of sitting by your boombox for hours after-school with a cassette tape loaded, waiting for the radio to play a song to record it 😂

Seriously! Especially with the one member being the brother of Incubus’s lead singer

The 1990s Cult 'Heaven's Gate' Has Four Remaining Followers – We Spoke to Them When I contacted the email address of a cult whose members all died by suicide in 1997, I wasn't expecting an answer.

There were actually (as of 2020 anyway) 4 members left behind who tend to their archives and reply to emails from people who, to this day, ask how to join 👽

(In other news, I may have to move in a month and I have no idea where I’m going to end up.)

Chess is the one thing keeping me sane right now.

There’s something soothing about having all available options mapped out to me. And having a (semi) concrete and logical path I can plan for escape, in case the next step I make is a terrible one.

Order within chaos + it’s permutations, et al

Every 6 months I decide “Oh, I should make smoothies for breakfast” and then remember this is exactly why there’s multiple bags of frozen fruit languishing in my freezer 😂

I really miss the freedom of 2000’s-era LiveJournal — being able to post and connect with people via our fully-(over)wrought diary entries on the Internet is a moment in time that we’ll probably never be able to experience again

YES! My fave unpopular opinion 😂 I saw it in the theaters and have been saying the same thing for years — the cinematography slaps, it’s so perfectly cartoonish.

I thought I was the only one lolll. I’m working on learning AfterEffects and it makes me insane watching someone breeze through a complex step assuming I know where the menu option is and then having to replace a dozen times to figure out where the hell they clicked on their giant 30” screen 🫠

It’s nice to have a tiny, manageable creative practice again outside of work 😌 Been playing with animation in AfterEffects too.

Hardest part is resisting the Freelancer Urge to monetize all my hobbies 😅

Another lil pixel art piece from last week, really happy with this one. The challenge theme was “Storm” 🌧️ Might go back in and redo the puddle, water is so tricky to render on a 128x128 canvas 😵‍💫

Pixel art illustration of my little brother’s *adorable* Samoyed named Banquo 🥺

Have a few more to post that were all created for monthly challenges in one of my Habitica guilds (my inner nerd is v. strong, lately 😂)

Really wish there was a good social network just for art, illustration + design.

Once a month I pop into my old DeviantArt account and think about reviving it but they completely removed any useful browsing UX with the redesign, and the search API is terrible 😭

Been digging back into pixel art, which was a hobby of mine as a teen. The built-in limitations of the medium are so refreshing, especially to sit down and finish a piece in one session for a change 😅 A little self-portrait I did a few weeks ago:
