Creativity accountability thread, day 62: Crappy workday at the job I hate. Barely made it. Finished this opera necklace. Counts double cuz I ran out of the small rings and had to disassemble part of another WIP to do it, heh. I will take a less shitty photo soon.

A hand holding a long necklace. It's made of purple and dark blue beads, Byzantine and swirly chainmail links, and round chain.

If you can’t use alt text for your screenshot of how racist X the everything app has become because it contains slurs that would get you suspended, maybe you don’t need to share the screenshot at all. Maybe you don’t need to keep looking at X, or posting content from it.

Creativity accountability thread, day 61: Played with jewelry again. A little obsessed with the necklace I'm making. Might keep, even though I'm not much of a purple person.

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

Creativity accountability thread, day 58: Wrapped* up the chaos chain today, except for the clasp situation, which I will probably change up once I can justify another supply order (meaning I need to set up the damn shop on my website already). *Hehehe

A tattooed person wearing a silver chain necklace wrapped as a choker three times. The sections and types of chain and beads are all mismatched, hence: chaos chain.

Creativity accountability thread, day 57: Managed to dig my way out of a scene edit that derailed my momentum this weekend, so that's pretty cool. This guy really did not want to let me write today, though.

First edit of the full milky way arch last night around 3:15-4am. 26(!) sky shots and foreground shot at blue hour. Right now you can get an EASY milky way arch shot around 11pm, but i started driving at 11am yesterday and hit an EASY 3 hours of traffic, so had to rest. Glad I did :)

The milky way arch, heavily blue and green, over a road and hills and fields. I'm going to have to really work on the colors on this one, but the source material is pretty solid.

I had not seen this clip where Tammy Duckworth advises Democrats to "not impeach anybody," "get back to work" and "allow" Donald Trump to "save face" and I would just like to remind the senator from IL that the federal government took 4,000 Chicagoans and murdered a 38-year-old father last fall.
