Let's keep this one quiet, yeah? A little resilience is good news, but a little good news will only serve to embolden industrial interests.

Given how much our online behaviour is mined and catalogued, that might easily be enough

Part of it is I don't know how skin particles will act inside a space station. Are there static electricity forces that would make it stick to surfaces, or does it remain suspended in air until the filtration gets to it?

Huzzah, I have languaged

Big studios all making the same games as each other like hrrnngh I'm trying to make art but the clapping of my development budget keeps making me follow game design trends and corporate buzzwords.

I'll just go make coffee while I wait to find out whether that was a coherent sentence.

Dust comes from human skin flakes.

I think along similar lines, but I've taken a third descriptor onboard: disaster-prone. A mirthless history professor once told me that "history is a litany of unintended consequences". Everything about the world and our history makes so much more sense if you mentally allow for the fact that we as a species tend to make rather absurd mistakes at scale, and now at the height of our global culture, our powers at their greatest, our need for common sense, tolerance, and cooperation at their most urgent in history due to impending climate collapse, geopolitical tension, and wealth inequality, the most powerful nation in history elected, twice, the most foolish, wicked man alive.

A single person is still intelligent and prosocial. I sincerely agree. But humanity i think has a critical mass at which point all of that is hidden behind layers of systematically disastrous behaviour.

It's too fresh, too undigested.

This is a foodpost.

Some people just don't like highbrow art

I'm quite prejudiced, having lost a lifelong friend to racialist bullshit he picked up on /pol/. I used to enjoy a bit of /tg/, over a decade ago, but I have better ways to spend my time these days.

Lifting a pen for the first time in months. So quickly, no refinement. No time. I'm getting away with it, though. That's the main thing.

This is a work in progress for my homemade ereader cover. I decided to use my broken septagram design from about a year ago, because it has many possible meanings and I like to tell people different things just to be difficult.

Marquetry has been an uphill climb for me. I started with a chessboard, and moved on to something incredibly complex in comparison. I'm glad I did the chessboard first, but goddamn.

My original design was too wudgy (technical term) for accurate cuts, so I've had to refigure some of the pieces and work them together gradually. I'll probably also have to redo the outside circular pieces. By the time the middle was together, the geometry of those parts were too far out of true to recover.

I'll post again when it's finished, but it's been such a long road to get this far that I felt like sharing.
