I had a varsity style bomber that I really liked (no polyester lining!) but the sleeves were faux leather and flaked after I got soaked in the rain once 🥲. maybe one day I can get them replaced with real leather. Bought a similar vintage one from Japan real wool and leather couldnt be happier 😁

Its far more ethical to buy secondhand leather

that's fair enough! youre right framed/square images are harder to work on t-shirts. I had a good example of my fav shirt from choodraws I wanted to post but bluesky is not allowing me images today 🙃

I will never understand having one of the most powerful votes in the world and declaring it useless whilst we're all forced to watch in horror...American self obsession crosses all political lines, truly

I forget the exact phrase but "gallows humor is for those with the noose around their neck, not the spectators" performative nilism isnt cute when yout biggest problem is being on your phone too much

to put it in terms of aspect ratio: a "cropped widescreen" shape along fhe chest works better than "vertical phone covering the whole front". Otherwise theres "big design on the back, little logo on the front"

its not that its weird by king standards...there's just something about it that felt like a certain type of bananas (I haven't read dreamcatcher but I've heard things about it)

oh no it's not subtle at all, esepcially the "getting so absorbed in the burst of inspiration you forget to eat/sleep" (I haven't done coke of course but its still relatable 😆)

I would imagine learning cursive would make it easier to read? there's so many old notes/documents that are beginning to feel like hyrpglyphics and I fear the ability to read them will be lost (totally agree with your point of course)

I think people are getting "need to know how to use a computer" and "everything must be done on the computer" mixed up. regardless use of tablet/mobile devices means real computer literacy is down anyway

I hate being "screens bad" but I find printing stuff out and being able to have it right there physically, highlight and and scribble on to be much better for retention, similar for handwritten notes (within reason, it can be labour intensive)

I dont think Sora going down will single handedly pop the AI bubble or be the end of AiGen video. But it IS a pretty big deal a whole ass "Hollywood killer" platform went completely belly up #sora #openai #disney

🏳️‍🌈Maxy Makes 🦘 @91vaults.bsky.social · 25/03/2026
then watch them shift the goal posts: "yeah well sora wasnt that important anyway" , I dont think videogen is going anywhere soon but its just another blow to their naive endless fawning hype

its less about "yay AI video gen is dead forever" and moreso having a moment of satisfaction when this hyped up thing fawned over by the most obnoxious smug people, goes belly up after like...a year? we all deserve our petty wins

well I dunno how often you shower but the only way it would be in any way comparable would be taking 48 hour shower for the sole purpose of my brain storming sessions...which is obviously not what I meant

Im not sure sounding board for "creative ideas" is a good use in the first place...that's what the shower is for

the ability to sniff out/hear those alarm bells is maddening when you remember a lot (if not most) people cant, every time I think "ok, lets see where theyre going with this" and I get proven right I feel like a sucker

I saw it on the TV as a kid and did not understand why this thing that happnend in the US was literally taking up all the airtime when (as I understood as a kid) stuff like that happned all the time on the news. I was pissed that the Simpsons wasn't on that night

I used to be super active on a certain gaming forum, enduring the occasional discourse etc, then gamergate happened in real time and that was my cue to go touch grass. I still wonder if it was always this volatile...

you got charachters living in a dingy basement apartment with a monitor and a few controllers laying around, depicts social media culture and use in a way thats relevant to the plot, not that all animated movies have to be explicitly contemporary but it works so well here

watched "the #goat" loved it so much its obvs how bored ive been of mainstream (ie pixar) animation since UP. Character designs awesome, animation fast paced and dynamic, world and characters feel very real in a way Zootopia wasn't 🧵 #thegoat #animation #pixar

not quite the same thing but I feel this a tiny bit when ppl do the whole "my art is so pointless in these dark times" "no! your art is the only reason to live" it takes a lot for me to not go "just get another fucking job then" (which I know isn't nice,nor fair hence why I keep that to myself)

I was feeling a little bad about it even tho I mostly create my own models (save for the stuff I really don't have the skill or patience for) this is the validation I need 😌
a photo of two tablets side by side. the right displays a photo of a shopping center fountain from the 80's. it is a hexagonal shape with layered water fountain bowls and a statue of two dolphins and a human figure balanced above them on the top. the left tablet shows a 3D model of said fountain. the dolphins and figure were taken from free 3d models
