I built a ridiculous 1000 pixel display that takes an hour to draw an image and I'm now asking the internet to draw on it (what could go wrong?)

Please submit some 40×25 pixel art at kilopx.com!

One of the trippiest things I've done was sea kayak in about 300m of water. Tried real hard not to think about it!

On the same trip, ended up between two orcas on a small boat. Definitely felt outclassed in that moment 😅
