Part Marcus Aurelius, part conversations with my cat. Unfluencer in the extreme.
I like analyzing methodology, semiotics, heuristics and your mom.
I guess I also like to make things.

It is acceptable. Not at all what I thought it would be, but acceptable.
Making something from scratch, not taste testing it a SINGLE time. I sure hope it's good.

Not quite done, but it is getting there! I was trying to do a study on Margaret MacDonald Mackintosh at the suggestion of @crystal-limeade.bsky.social, but about one quarter of the way in I said, "No. My way." The influence is there, for sure. Just not immediately evident.

I'm just realizing now that Yoshitaka Amano is like a mix between Ukiyoe and Klimt.

Um, this is going well. Way better than last time I tried to do a study on Yoshitaka Amano. I'm almost afraid to try laying down colors cuz it took me so long to understand his shapes.

Ever been at a show and people are having the boringest conversation behind you, and you're like why?

I don't know why, but the image of Ciara Kelly descending to a diving board while possessed by a demon, looking completely strung out really stuck in my head. There was no outfit description so I ended up letting her be Ginger Spice. Sharing now cuz I don't think I'll finish it.

I just mistranslated something, so now it's mine. "We'll follow time until it stops" is a beautiful thought.

The problem with trying to be better as a person and friend by learning how to slow down is that I'm not seeing results fast enough to see if I'm doing it right.

Was listening to the top 40 playlist on Spotify (I think) at the hairstylist and ended up ranting about how if art is going to use other art, it needs to be in dialogue with that other art, not just using it as a hook. Someone, please turn me off.

If I were rich, I would pay to have SO many things translated. German musicals, Albanian Punk, Kazakh comics. I want to see them all. I'd allow others to experience them, maybe on as "pay as you can" system so money goes back to the creators.
I just think we're all so hungry and the world is full.
