I was in charge of bringing Christmas dinner dessert this year so tried my hand at a first Bûche de Noël (yule log). A bit clumsy, as is my tradition, but I was fairly happy with the result. Taste and texture were both quite good. #baking #holidaybaking #bakersofbsky

We love the Dwarf genre, don't we?

Not the most reflective of my gaming year as a whole, most of my play was non-steam before the last couple of months. I was so close to completing FFXVI too but then met a woman and yeah... I'll get back to it over the holidays😄

Instant F rating on my video game sailboat scale. Come on.
i got so irrationally upset what do you mean your boats are built with giant circular holes in the middle of the sails

Just me or was there a hint of offside on the build-up to both the second and third Miami goals? I'd like to see another, proper replay but ah well. GGs Whitecaps, a great season and hopefully another one next year.

Not that I've ever do more than a handful per year anyway but Twitch recap has made me aware that I haven't streamed even once this year. Still a bit of time to left establish a more regular habit for next year though.🤔 I don't expect much but it'd be nice to get a little community going #streaming

I'm sure it'll be fine but what if the Zelda movie had this vibe? Better worlds are possible.

Legends, both.

I hate watching MLS because the refereeing is a disgrace. That was not even a foul by Blackmon and he gets a second yellow! He got the ball and barely touched the guy! Where is the VAR check on that?? And of course Son converts the resulting free kick. Unwatchable.

We'll see how things shake out but right now it looks like the Steam Machine might be the first non-laptop computer I buy in my adult life.

Been riding the high of my favourite band announcing that they're putting out a new album next spring after 6 going on 7 years. Thought they were basically defunct so I can't even describe how happy this made me, they really mean the world to me. Give 'em a listen #newmusic

Spent a good number of hours today making a cake roll, only to fuck up the actual roll at the very end😖 #bakersdelight At least election and soccer results went my way😁

So my art-a-day challenge thing in October really floundered... How do people keep up with that sort of thing when there are always so many other things that need doing in a day? Certainly doesn't help that I draw really slowly but still, kudos to those who can manage to do it.

A little late but Happy Halloween from everyone's second favourite Burmecian, Sir Fratley! The mask didn't come together but I was relatively happy with how the spear and clothes turned out. Haven't sewed in possibly actual decades so it was great to up that skill a bit. #FFIX #halloween #cosplay

Joined the bsky ink making club this weekend, inspired and informed by @lorenschmidt.bsky.social. Haven't used it yet, but these weren't black walnuts so it's probably fairly light, we'll see. Time to make a quill pen! (and eventually get a dip pen, not sure I should use this in a cartridge)

Working on a mask for my Halloween costume has hit an unforseen snag. I'm planning to work with some papier mache but can't find any... newspaper? Someone's gotta do something to save print journalism! How are the kids supposed to craft??

Decided out of the blue today that I'm gonna be Sir Fratley from FFIX for Halloween. The amount of time left means this could end up really rough but the spear is gonna be sick at least and where I'm going no one will recognise it regardless. Let's see how this goes! #FFIX #cosplay #halloween #games

Dude, everything lives rent free in my head because I'm not some scummy landlord. You're not special.

Prompt: RIZZAR
Dictober day 3, to rizzar apparently means to dry in the sun so we've got some salmon hanging up to dry. At the rate I'm going I'll never catch up😓 #drawtober #artober #dictober #sketch #art

Prompt: GONFALON
Dictober day 2, a quick and dirty sketch of my lvl8 Elvaan warrior holding a San d'Oria gonfalon(banner hung from a cross piece) on a pike. Trying to catch up on prompts, it's not my best work and very small so it won't see any ink. #drawtober #dictober #artober #FFXI #sketch #art

Love to spend a couple of hours of my Sunday grappling with GPU drivers after an update causes repeated crashing and instability and then the Nvidia app crashes mid rollback... Second time this year, if I remember correctly. And now the manual install seems to be stuck too... Very cool🙃
October 5, 2025 at 10:48 PM
Well. I did my first Drawtober piece, it was going ok until I used some alcohol markers with no experience and fucked it up. Ah well, it's about learning, right? I'm using random dictionary prompts, I'm calling it Dictober!... What? Why are you laughing?? Prompt: TOPE #drawtober #dictober #artober
October 5, 2025 at 4:33 AM
I was thinking of finally giving Inktober a try this year only to find out the sentiment has turned on it and the prompts didn't seem that interesting anyway so... Does anyone have Artober prompts they'd recommend? I'm not finding a whole lot that aren't just "use your own prompts" #art #artober
