2020: Google really sucks now, time to append with "site:reddit.com" 2025:

oh hey it's also my bday today so my present is getting to talk about this stuff I find to be interesting :3

Activeworlds was "second life with unlimited land that hosts your environments forever" Hundreds of thousands of people built on a 3-D contiguous landscape that's 6% larger than California. Avatars were very limited, so the means of expression was architecture and city building. This is goin in VRC

I've been experimenting with very large Blender imports of the stuff we made in "activeworlds". Definitely at the limits of what this computer can take. I also made another world depicting just a tiny section of the player spawn for "SW City" which was the largest contiguous city from this platform.

MacOS clip a screen recording: use the native tool like we've done for years. Microsoft: hAvE yOu tRiEd CLIPCHAMP? We absolutely love CLIPCHAMP's mandatory OneDrive integration! CLIPCHAMP only lets you have your video once it FIRST uploads to OneDrive 🤡 OneDrive is definitionally malware now.

I've been playing with getting more ActiveWorlds stuff into VRChat >:3

A Happy Thanksgiving to those of you who chose a period of time to rest without all the social expectations!

One of the main reasons I love using VR is the layer of separation from phones and other doomscroll-friendly user input methods.

I wanna draw more VRChat stuff to get the hang of drawing again. This is a world called Ritual by DrMorro. This is a huge tiled archway room filled with pools of varying depths, and huge strange pipes.

picarto.tv/swishchee finishing this painting up, gonna balance some of the composition or w/e! also picarto doesn't forbid this architecture

was showing @okdoogl.bsky.social Qoo H Bocuma airport in VRChat and like 40+ people showed up, the trains were packed and had way preferable music to Denver's airport

To people who go “remember me?” to a fursuiter in dark loud dance environments: what’s your endgame in quickly leaving if I don’t remember instantaneously? If you know we’ve met, you could always offer context. I lack perfect memory recall and face recognition through a fursuit head.

Ever since July, my battery has been pinned at 0%, only having a little bit of time to charge to 3% before being pounded back to 0% again. Just lots of random events (that, in themselves, wouldn’t be overwhelming) coinciding nonstop so far. Still need lots of recharge time.

Who out there makes kigus? I’ve been looking to do a cheetah one, but I don’t know of any makers who would do such a thing.

The dilemma I’ve been facing for months: If I do art, I become socially isolated and no housework gets done. I’d love to do more art, but the social scene here requires more time than I have left over if I make any art at all, so I acquired a new fear over making stuff.

I’m one of the lucky 10000 to discover that, in Sweden, an elevator is called “hiss.” Hard not to think about that game “Control” :D

If only weed were legal here wtffff wow

Where I’m staying in Stockholm is a heck of a stress reducer so far. Such a good vibe of a place!

EF was a blaaaaast! I’m glad I got to be there for Big Blue Fox’s set which lasted till 5 AM :D now watching the sunrise in Hamburg!

I was spotted by Tristan while taking that space cat drink pic :D

FOUND SUIT BROTHER Mifflin!

Whoaaa it me in drink form!

What good breakfast places would yall recommend along some train lines in Hamburg? I have one place in mind but I’d be curious to hear more. Perhaps a nice bakery or eggs :3

I might do the rave at EF again, but only if I can find some people to do some things with afterwards! like explore around down and see the night life. I hear lots of Döner places are open around here :3

The dance tonight was GREAT. I had a blast and it’s 1:30 AM and I’ve still got so much pent up energy. Shame about the trains though. Basically have to Uber back or walk lugging wet fursuit stuff. Anyone doin anything? I may go back on foot without fursuit and say hi :3

I’m saving my energy for the dance and rave tbh! Enough of interesting Europe to see during the day

Going to EF in the middle of a larger trip to Europe realizing I am exhausted. Just noooo energy left. No more spoons to give.

The space boat was craaazy. Passing by container ships and seeing their night lights passing in the background, their gantry cranes moving about loading shipping containers, was kinda humbling. Seeing all that amount of trade in action towering over us. Also the music and vibes were explosively good

Man Eurofurence throws an amazing boat party (ft. @swishchee.bsky.social and @kigufox.bsky.social)

I’ve gotta say, EF’s proximity to interesting things makes it quite the good fursuit photo spot 🤔

Soooo who’s gonna be at EF? I’ll be there 👌

Hi funicular!

bsky asking “what’s up”

Amsterdam is so quiet that you find yourself complaining about loud fat bicycle tires 🤔

So how do yall even pronounce this

Hiked in Golden Gate Canyon State Park this morning with @swishchee.bsky.social Felt like very varied terrain for such a short trail, and had incredible views.

Oof. My desire to draw may have hit a potential permadeath. Things suddenly put all of the stuff I’ve been doing into perspective.

I’ll be opening commissions again with some restrictions, just for time’s sake. Thinking about having it more closely intertwined with VRChat, maybe do an avatar photo sesh and make it a painting ;3

I’m thinking about opening for commissions again, but with a premise of “come to me with a thing you wanna depict” instead of the blank canvas artistic liberty kinda thing. Very difficult for me to conjure context to characters in a total vacuum like that. Just be on the lookout for another form.

"Whoa, it's really raining out there!" commission for @seeker.gay and @nissoumutt.bsky.social sheltering in the jeep and enjoying some Cat Quest instead :D

I'm streaming art on my discord for anyone who may be interested.

Does anyone have a good guide for combining audio in Voicemeeter so that I can stream an OBS screen and audio have audio streaming? The audio comes from a different application. All of my attempts convert my headphones to single-channel. I have been trying to solve this instead of streaming art.

Oh yeah btw I've been doing more drawing/streaming in a low key manner on my twitch discord channel specifically. Just slowly working on the commission stuff :3

Oops all chees @furryweekend.com flic.kr/s/aHBqjChXFp

FWA definitely showed me the limits of con size. I wanted to say hi to soooo many more people, but there was simply no time to do so. If you saw me, and I appeared aloof and distant, it was because my energy was spread thin! Looking to do more of my own stuff to get that mental energy back.
