Wait, THIS was the straw? You had all these straws to choose from and THIS IS THE STRAW??!?

I’m fucking tired of this. Melania Trump is complicit in fascism and is a grifter like her husband. Focus on that. Her appearance, prior work, nude photos, language, accent…if you mock or deride that, you’re an asshole, full stop.

My process is often referred to as "there's probably a better and more efficient way, but I'm muddling through it fine, thanks"

Every paper model I draw requires dozens of conic sections to be drawn. I wouldn’t mind if it wasn’t so labor intensive. Calculate the dimensions from the two diameters and the height, draw out circles and cut them to size, then make a connection strip to match. Still refuse to use AI. 😊

My next selfie is tentatively scheduled for sometime after the next American moon landing. I wanna give myself some breathing room.

Bluesky should let us delete a photo but leave the post

I guess that tracks. I’m gonna dye my hair purple I think.

Doesn’t he look like Paul Reiser’s character from Aliens? And the similarities don’t end there. One’s a shitty corporate figure who is planning on endangering all of society in order to get rich with a ridiculous unworkable scheme, and the other is Paul Reiser’s character from Aliens.

I saw this and I had to share it with you. Im sorry.

I must have lost my damn mind today, posting without filters or makeup or…okay, see, I haven’t done shit, you understand? 🙃

My face shape does not have femininity, and my hairline is a mess from years of T wrecking my shit. Why did I see a girl when I looked in the mirror? Probably just from the briefest glimpses. But you know…the edges are there

The videos of the cat that sounds like it’s saying “cow” when it meows has done a lot of heavy lifting for my mental health lately

I’m probably not going to ever reach my goals and I think that’s okay. I can have this little space on the internet to be who I wanted to be and that will be enough for me. If I keep saying it, maybe it will stop bothering me so much. Maybe it will keep the despair out.

Is it okay to start a project while working on another project while an earlier project languishes while I wait for better painting weather? The answer is yes because I say so. (I’m trying to avoid beating my head against a wall with an unsolvable issue)

I’m just saying, if Biden had dementia (and he didn’t), I’d take his dementia over this dementia any day

beep boop

Fuck me if I’m wrong, but *says something demonstrably untrue, then wiggles butt at you*

Oh great this again 😒

I see all these people into denial as a kink and I’m like “haha, yeah, that’s totally why I was doing it, I’m a little freak”

As if my brain couldn’t make anything else worse, now I’m regretting not stocking up on canned food and bottled water. I know I’m being paranoid but…fuck. I have to stop watching the news.

The Artemis III astronauts have announced that their destination will be just far enough out of radio contact that Trump can’t call them

Speaking of Threads, this one got me in the feels.

I feel so bad for those astronauts. They made them talk to Trump earlier. I was seriously worried I’d see one of them open the door to make it stop.

Okay so we’ve spent all this money and sent four people there to scout it out. Is the moon haunted or not? I need answers.

Oh my god I just had the weirdest intrusive thought for some reason. I’d describe it but it involves a lot of bouncing. 😳

I seriously don’t know what my issue is with designing my own model, building a prototype, building someone else’s design (this one) to think about my own, and then repeating the process again. I mean, autism, yes. I know that part. (1:64; this time considering instruments, specifically placement)

I have many bad takes, and this is the one I’m proudest of.

Since yesterday was a holiday in my religion I did make sure to observe it (watched Star Trek: First Contact again because it was April 5th)

Someone come over and punch me in the head really hard. It’s either gonna fix me or render me unconscious, which could also help

hell yes

He is risen

happy necromancy day

I feel like I need to talk, but I feel like I don’t have the energy to. I think this is one of those times a well-adjusted person would spend time with people and just try to escape for a bit. Well.

Panic attacks in the grocery store are my favorite

Second prototype camera housing. This is a lot better. It’s down to two parts (instead of five) and it’s easier to build and looks somewhat better.

Yeah, sex is great but have you ever designed and built a paper model of a 50 year old Soviet spacecraft in your spare time to escape from your demons? … No? … So what you’re saying is that I need to get laid…

Prototype gamma ray densitometer installed. This thing is smol. So smol that I’m about to take a suggestion and go from 1:12 scale to 1:8 scale.

The phone rang at work and my coworker picked it up and said “hello?” and I said “is it about my cube?” and no one laughed, I hate it here

The time has finally come. I can’t avoid it any longer, despite my apprehension and fear. I have to be brave for future me to appreciate my sacrifice. I am going to attempt to build a torus in Blender. Wait what did you think I was doing? 🤔

Sometimes I truly feel like this. I’m not kink shaming. I’m shaming myself for lack of kink. 😊

Looking at the weather I read “gusty winds” as “busty winds” and maybe I’m just not focusing or something

If I ever finish the one I’m working on I need to pick up another old abandoned project of mine… I’m really good at designing and building stuff to about halfway and then dropping it for a year until I figure out some dumb issue I ran into.

Probably one of the most irritating parts of this thing — the camera housing. This version is probably too complicated to build but now I’m aware of the shapes and how difficult it is to shape.

So listen, they had a thing in, idk, the 1990s I think…it was like a toaster strudel but it had pizza stuff inside. I enjoyed them and for years people told me I was imagining it. The masses yearn for savory toaster-based snacks.

This worked better than I expected. A little shifting of some of the graphics and it should work fine. I kept trying to wrap the naked part around a cylinder while keeping the right orientation and thought “what if I basically wrap a template around it first and then glue the part to the template?”

This one reads sort of like a theme in a Lovecraft story.

I see lots of people on here talking about trauma from watching the Challenger shuttle accident in class at school and basically nothing was done after to help them cope. I heard the same thing about kids who experienced 9/11 when they were in school. We need to prioritize mental health you guys.

Possible solution to work on (tomorrow)

Well I know now that I have my landing strut arrangement correct. Now I can transfer those measurements into the drawings and actually build one that’s got those holes marked out. (Ignore landing ring attachment — still figuring that out and did this just to ensure my strut arrangement was 👍)
