  • huh alright, i remember reading somewhere that it’d take longer/have worse effects if you sucked on a tab instead of just keeping it rested somewhere in your mouth. never really thought to look up if it’s true or not as yk, keeping a piece of paper rested on my gums is just easy so, always went with that









  • no,

    if someone learns art on digital systems they can grab a pencil and do the same on paper. maybe they’ll be annoyed by lack of the undo button, maybe they’ll have to learn colour mixing, and how materials interact with each other, but the core ability to make art is fully transferable between ditigal and paper

    same goes for animation. btw. your statement about it doesn’t make much sense, keyframes are a concept used by both digital and traditional animators. and if you meant frame interpolation then it’s a brute force calculation of the most average of averages given two data-points, 90% of the time the animator has to go back and fix it, developing their animation skills that they can then take to paper and do just the same (would just take way longer)

    now what will a prompt typer do without their AI?

    fuck all is what they’d do. the only transferable skill from that would be idk writing image descriptions for the visually impaired




  • the thing that mentally exhausts me the most is guilt - guilt of undone chores, guilt of unfinished projects, guilt of unfulfilled “potential”. attempting to rest when surrounded with guilt is exhausting too

    i’m working on it of course, but it’s a rather slow climb, with plenty of holes on the way. and if it was just internal that’d be half the problem it is, because on top of all the personal guilt i also need to push back against the culture of grind and constant productivity (which is, in itself, a big source of guilt)

    the only way is through unless i give in to the temptation, fake my death, and join a buddhist monastery in tibet or something idk



  • back when LSD wasn’t demonised by the US government and people were free to study it - scientists found out that after about a week of taking the same dose you’d feel 0 effects. our bodies build up tolerance to LSD crazy fast

    idk how true that is but i’ve seen people online say that if you want the same effects day after you need to double what you took the day previous





  • even if you don’t plan on joining any organisations you do move the needle forward - if you bring up the topic of said organisation existing and speak of it in a good light others will look it up, and maybe join, maybe not - but the positive word will spread. and if many people see an organisation in a positive light, then it’s more likely they’ll join

    nobody is useless, every kind person moves things forward, even if just a little, it’ll all add up to a lot
