Today I came home to @attie-has-tea.bsky.social throwing an elaborate hyjinx to help me decide what clothes to donate to an op shop.
He turned the living room into a full on runway.
As a result I stumbled on a few outfits I didn't realise I had that go pretty hard.

But there's more... Some match my style and some don't.
And pegs to mark which is which. (many can't fit back into the pouches once unwrapped)

So @attie-has-tea.bsky.social outdid himself.
He made me an advent calendar, with each day containing something he got me from an op shop.

Got some really cool things from an op shop recently, one of which is this top.
What's really fun about it is finding ways to subvert expectations by having unexpected but sfw clothes or accessories hidden underneath.

It's hard to convince people that I'm not really dressing up for games week.
I like to wear something interesting wherever I leave the house.
Why keep your best clothes hidden away only for special occasions or to forget that they're even there?

Went to NZ.
Couldn't resist taking a lot of my winter wardrobe to wear it at least one last time before summer heat hits.

The hilarious thing is that I went to a cafe with friends and also picked up my boots that were being repaired/modded some wearing this outfit without one soul giving a single shit.
Side note: check out the updated boots!

I'm getting back into wearing a fun outfit every day.
I've done a lot of op shopping lately (and went to a cool market) so I've got to figure out what combinations work.

I've recently been told that the average person finds defined collarbones to be an attractive feature
(Pic included for reference)
Now, mine are "hefty" but I'd never even heard of this being a thing.
So... Science time!
- Are collarbones a thing for you?
- How common do you think this is?

I've been trying Pixieditor lately.
While I -really- like the concept behind it... it doesn't feel ready yet.
- There's unintuitive restrictions like no texture being bigger than the canvas (paste as layer is cropped by this also)
- No nodes for the basic editing actions, no custom nodes.

I'm going to be doing a talk at #gcap2025 on a solution to a problem I've been improving over the last... 15 years?
How do you approximate sounds for large numbers of objects (crowds, trees, collisions, simulated water, etc)?
Well... I finally have a solution that I'm happy with.
