I don’t enjoy the physical activity of painting. I enjoy seeing a picture start to emerge from the marks im making and I enjoy having a finished painting that I know i made.

Right now Im participating in the 100 day challenge by making a small painting every day. Its day 58 and im keeping up with it. I post my results in the artshare community, and even though no one would probably notice if I stopped, it still feels like more accountability.

Eta: check out artprof.org. There’s a discord and they offer one on one critiques. Dont know if it will meet your needs.

If you have to ask, you can’t afford it.

You may have an intolerance to certain foods. Look up low FODMAP diet. Certain types of food can fermented in the gut and make tou gassy/bloated. Ive found that I dont have an issue with wheat, but switching to lactose-free dairy and avoiding onions has helped me immensely.

Monty Python did it best.

And decrease the surplus population.

No the Sophists tried to persuade people through rhetoric instead of dialectic, which is why Plato hated them.

In my house we have the Dish Fairy. Its always exciting when she’s paid us a visit.

In Geoff Ryman’s novel “Him,” both Mary and Joseph are ace. They reproduce via some kind of turkey baster method. And Jesus is a trans man.

Black vulture. The way they just glide on air currents looks amazing. Scavenging seems easier than hunting. And they’re social animals, as opposed to turkey vultures (these being the two species in my area). Plus they look really cool.

Some experiences are just so crazy, you have to say yes, given the opportunity, so that freakiness can be born into the universe through you.

• weight measurements in baking recipes (instead of or in addition to volumetric measurements)

• password requirements. Not using the same password for different sites, just using a formula, but it’s hard when some sites require the use of characters that others forbid, or some sites cap password length at a character limit lower than other sites require as minimum.

Also be aware that you might not experience anything the first time you try it. And it can affect people in different ways. Some people feel high, some get agitated, some get sleepy, some feel nothing. And your tolerance for edibles is unrelated to your tolerance for smoke.

If i comment on a post or reply to a comment, I upvote it. Case in point.

If i think a post is in the wrong place, I downvote it. For example, I follow a lot of art communities. In artshare I upvote literally every post because I think creativity should be encouraged, and sharing your creative journey should be encouraged. However, I feel like the traditionalart community is for sharing professional art pieces. I’ve already seen your same piece in 4 other communities,et me have one place for polished art.

Eta: if someone comments on a post I make, I almost always up vote. Unless the comment is complete garbage, im grateful for the engagement.

Repo! The Genetic Opera

The music is incredible. The Gothic setting is great. The father/daughter storyline is complex. I wish it was more popular.

Pretty sure meth is involved.

Avocados are closer to olives in terms of fruitiness. You don’t eat them alone unless you’re Victoria Beckham.
