Twitch

Me, an ancient: searches "how do i use twitch"

I always assumed the place would look something like youtube and there wouldn't be any instructions necessary to simply watch a stream, but turns out it looks more like google calendar and when audio starts playing bc you've been clicking stuff but there's no video in sight, you have to... scroll up? hwat lmao

I'm going to try joining in on some study streams with other artists. Made it low-pressure for myself and decided I'll just sign up on the platform and join the stream without painting at first. Good fucking call.

Mayhaps... someday... I'll dare to figure out how to stream my own process. Phew boy.

Fandom AU

Achievement unlocked! A post full of my centaur characters got reblogged with "centaur AU" tags, I'm assuming for the stucky ship judging by the rest of the blog :D

Don't get me wrong, I don't encourage tagging my characters with unrelated stuff, but as an inevitable result of posting art publicly, it's still kind of fun and neat.

Snow

So I kept waking up last night because of how unusually warm it was in the house. I really don't sleep well with the heat going overboard. Kept wondering if someone turned the temperature up before bed or if the sudden temperature drop caused it to work overtime though that's not ever really the case. In the morning, I go downstairs to do yoga and.... the front door is wide fucking open.

Snow everywhere. Yes, in the house. The entire hardwood foyer is soaked. Winter boots, soaked. Leather boots, soaked. Interestingly, only my shoes suffered this structural sabotage. Certainly explains why the heat was working overtime. Flipped the winter boots upside down over a vent and they should soon be dry enough to enjoy a walk in the snow that fell overnight. Leather boots I was really worried about because the water stains looked terrible, but I put some shoe trees in them to absorb the moisture inside and shape them and then gave them a polish with leather conditioner and they look pretty good actually. Luckily my other leather shoes were unharmed because I only have one pair of shoe trees. Fun adventure! I announced I was officially excused from shoveling the driveway because I'd already done my snow shoveling for the day. :D

SFC

Off to go do snowflake challenge #2!

Oddly rich text posting has not been working for me? Is this a thing? It's half annoying and half nostalgic for back when I used to do a lot my fandom stuff in mobile safari in my parked car or between classes and had to html everything. You know, back when I took fandom blogging seriously with lists and links and recs and stuff. I don't necessarily enjoy it though...
