[Selfie] Fit check for our Taiwan era 🎵

Caught myself thinking that I “need” to Get Good At Drawing so that I can Put Together A Portfolio, and honestly I’m gonna try to go for less of that energy this year. Just wanna have a hobby I enjoy doing.

Today: a weird version of Abby Saja. Kind of wishing for more time to do something more detailed with colour pencils (I have a few ideas), but for now all I have time for is these quick ink sketches. #theWorkshop #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

More 5 min sketches, this is Kazuha from Le Sserafim’s “Spaghetti” MV → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=472rpdbaTy4 #theStudio #theWorkshop

Bath time: “Papa draw when they are on the plane sitting on the floor next to the table and then there are monsters” She still hasn’t seen the film but somehow not only knows the scenes, but can also tell me the hair/eyes/outfits colours, etc! #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

Wow, this is extremely My Kind Of Thing! I’ll be making an order shortly. https://aus.social/@decryption/115931804912664490

This year, I want to be more casual about blogging. I don’t need to write A Fucking Essay each and every time, this self-imposed expectation is only going to prevent me from posting. Life’s busy enough as it is.

Thanks, Reddit

Unreasonably proud to have received my first DM asking to clarify some KPDH lore 😎 Keep 'em coming! #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

Today’s literal 5 minute sketch before sleep is Smug Jinu copied from another fanart. Pen and brush. #TheWorkshop #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

My drug of choice these days is Baby Falling Asleep On My Chest While I Sing To Him. Powerful shit.

What are the modern day ethics of building a fan site? In the olden days (Geocities etc) we just uploaded media and didn’t worry too much about where it came from. I certainly did for my Star Wars fanpage, and my Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman fanpage. How do people go about it bow?

Also a lil ink sketch today. I like the 0.03mm pen, the very thin lines somehow give me much less pressure to make things perfect, so I can be playful. Also enjoying the pentel brushes! #theWorkshop

WIP: learning how to do perspective properly. Curious to see how this one’s going to turn out! #theWorkshop

[Instagram] Noticed a new trend in Instagram advertising: game ads that show the game played so badly, it makes you want to rage-download it just to do better

Always excited to get email notifications from AO3! For a place so full of smut, the community sure can be wholesome :3

Pentel brush Jinu from the KPDH artbook! These brushes are so much fun! #theWorkshop #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

Whoa, @Tingyi got me some pretty serious colour pencils, and two Pentel brushes I’ve been wanting to try forever! 💖🥰

Zoey, from the KPDH art book. Copying isn’t as fun as drawing my own things but it’s also a nice exercise where I can pay attention to proportions, shapes, etc., and it can be done relatively quickly. Sometime soon I want to challenge myself a bit to work […] [Original post on merveilles.town]

[eupol, snark] Headline: "EU's von der Leyen: Greenlanders can count on us" My first thought: "Count on us to be seriously concerned, you mean"

I watched EJAE's interview on Behind The Wall and besides the awesome stories and demos, I enjoyed seeing how she is sometimes uncertain of the right expression to say something, like it's on the tip of her tongue but she can't quite find it. This happens to me all the time: I'm never 100% […]

N. is meant to start reception (which is the British name for the first year of primary school) this year, and we are supposed to submit our top 6 school choices by tomorrow. We only managed to visit 3 schools so far, so I'm anxious about how to do: just submit 3 options? Or pick 3 additional […]

Look what came in the groceries delivery! #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

Earlier today when I was walking home I thought of a clever solution to a code problem I was dealing with at work, and now that I'm at my computer I can't for the life of me remember which problem that was related to, let alone what solution I've come up with 😑

Today in unhinged kpop MVs: Aespa's "Rich Man" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oQVTnq-UKk What's not to love! #theStudio #goshadoeskpop

[macOS annoyance] So annoying that macOS doesn't have the option to set the menu bar background colour! It's either blurred background (looks terrible), or no background (looks even worse)

Today’s practice colour pencil sketch is my daughter N., drawn from a photo. #theWorkshop

I love my Seiko too but man it drives me crazy how inaccurate the 6R35 movement is. Having to reset it every few days defeats the whole purpose for me. But otherwise, same. I stopped wearing my Apple Watch except for sleep and actual exercise. https://nazhamid.com/journal/its-time/ (cc @nazhamid)

“Well my mum is ARMY so she knows all about this” is a thing I heard today. #BTS #goshadoeskpop

Today’s quick pencil practice is j-hope from the le sserafim music video “spaghetti”, haha. I didn’t quite manage to convey the swagger unfortunately! #theWorkshop

I often hear Americans & rich brits justify buying oversized, polluting vehicles by claiming they need them because they live in the "countryside". I call bullshit, Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce, the Citroen C15⬇

Today’s quick pencil drawing feat. @Tingyi 💖 #theWorkshop

Wait a second, is this kind of biker jacket with patches some kind of kpop fashion meme? #goshadoeskpop

Lisp’s just got insane aura, you know. I’d be a fan even if it wasn’t an objectively (lol) awesome family of languages. https://mastodon.social/@lxsameer/114030275087793303

lol, in a group chat, when comparing KPDH and Star Wars as instances of the monomyth: “Anakin does pull a Jinu in Return of the Jedi”

This is a really great video looking at KPDH from a therapist's perspective. The things they talk about are exactly why I love this film so much! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Moo6eTKkZM #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

After that incident, we took our daughter out of her old nursery. We didn't have a plan for what to do next, but we were very lucky that a really nice nursery within walking distance to our place offered her a place for January, after literally years on the waiting list. She just had her first […]

My NAS, behind me, is processing some files and is making that old-school hard drive krr-krr sound. Meanwhile, I'm working on my laptop (which has a SSD) and I can't help being frustrated by how slow things feel. That's some conditioning!

What media server that I can run on my Synology NAS do folks recommend? I’m using Plex at the moment, but it requires an account, has many features I don’t care about, and, last but not least, lists Taiwan as “Taiwan Province if China” 🙄 I have a bunch of music and videos that I’d like to […]

Man colour pencils are hard, and colours and light are also hard. Need moar practice. Tips welcome! #theWorkshop #Mira #kpopdemonhuntersstanaccount

It blows my mind that something like Figma can run in a web browser. The web is an incredible platform!

Yesterday @Tingyi showed me a funny Instagram account where the person running it is also a triathlete and posts about their training sometimes, and sure enough last night I had an anxiety dream about not being ready for a big race, like “uhh I haven’t really gone to the pool in a few years, am […]

I can never keep my desk tidy for more than a day or two, and I’ve decided I’m going to be ok with that.

Colour pencil WIP. I’m experimenting with using a very fine point pen for details (0.03 mm), and I kinda like the contrast between how precise it can be vs the rougher texture of the pencils. #theWorkshop

How is fanfiction so satisfying??

Cancelled Plausible. Going to try self-hosting goatcounter on my openbsd server https://www.goatcounter.com/

Home Assistant is so much better than Apple’s garbage home automation app I’m actually embarrassed for them.
