If #Apple thinks this “Liquid Glass” shit looks good they should see the garbage I was turning out in the 90s when I was learning Photoshop and got a pirate copy of Kai Power Tools.

Really wanna stream more but first I gotta stop being a butter churn full of anxiety and dread. Any day now.🤞

Please inform Mr Scrooge I will see him for his 3rd appointment on the evening of December 24.

Waiting for blood work and I think the endless loop of pop Xmas music is making my brain leak out my ears.

Being in a large #Warframe Alliance with people 20+ younger than me means I've hit that strata of "officially old" wherein I need to look up at least 40% of what they say/post cuz I don't know current memes. 👴

My year end #music summary was all jacked up from using it for my build stream background, but Soprano by #NovaTwins is my most played track of the year, which is really impressive seeing as I only discovered them a few months ago. These badass ladies are 🔥

Tell us, Tenno: What is Warframe?

Serious question: if I do a video of replacing an #Xbox One X (yes xb1) HDD with a faster SSD, would that be of use to anyone? Doing it soon but want to make sure it’s actually helpful to someone.

One last #puppet shipping out for the year! All the way to France! #smallbusiness #artist

It’s my first day of sorta-downtime where outside of some chores, I can have some *actual* downtime. Now it’s just a matter of deciding which of the 4 games in my current rotation I want to play and then playing #Warframe because of course.

#Warframe and #puppets together! It's my first edited Warframe video! Quite pleased with this, a guide for newer players who need Corrupted mods. #tennocreate #youtube youtu.be/g6twFRcnvK8?...
PnP Warframe Dojo 1: Comfy Vault Runs
Time new a new #Warframe series with this, my first edited Warframe video! This time I demonstrate a relaxed and casual way of farming Orokin Vaults for Corrupted mods. Geared towards newer players...

I understand why some creators, including myself, don't leave #YouTube. However it's *vital* now more than ever to also make yourself a #PeerTube server. You need an accurate archive of your work that YOU control, even if no one watches it there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrwJ...

Now officially on sorta-vacation. Time to get serious about the #Warframe videos I’ve been planning for a while.

The migration habits of the #puppet Sasquatch are largely a mystery.

And with this Sasquatch, the final #puppet build of 2025 is done. Staring up again in January! #puppetbuilding #smallbusiness #artist

Using Gen #AI “art” should carry the social stigma of “the cheap crappy thing”. Anyone using it in anything for any reason should be automatically suspect.

TLDR: Tim Sweeny, get fucked.

Dear lord I love how @soulframe.com thinks. “Let’s take a badass Souls-like and make a core part of the gameplay being kind to cute animals and playing a flute”. #soulframe

Goth gone. This #puppet on its way to Texas! #smallbusiness #artist

As a #puppet performer, deeply familiar with the human brain’s predilection to see non-living things as alive if presented as such, I can assure you, no, the fucking chatbot is not conscious. #AI #chatgpt #slop

Installing an extension on @vivaldi.com that blocks #YouTube shorts from ever showing up has noticeably improved my browsing experience.

I did this in both of my classes this semester. It was super successful. The students had to ask an LLM about a subject they already knew well, like their favorite musician, movie, sports team, or something else they had previously researched.

I know #Warframe is unlike anything else but I just took a spaceship powered by the severed finger of an eldritch horror into an interdimensional storm with a sentient fungus who could be a Muppet, got in a massive mech and then bounced on a giant mushroom. Or I'm having a stroke.

14 years ago Disney tried to revive the #Muppets with a big film and their chance to introduce a new character. In the grand tradition of wacky psychedelic characters they gave us…

A drab white guy. Really swinging for the fences there, mouse.
