OpenGL & Vulkan are like Portal & Portal 2
OpenGL = Portal Vulkan = Portal 2
Both are made by the same people, have the same motivations, are made in the same language. Experiencing the former is a good experience. However, experiencing the latter is a whole other dimension of interesting. OpenGL is fun to learn, and Portal is fun to play. But I’ve decided to start using Vulkan, and god damn, there’s a lot. You have to enumerate through and interface with devices, you have to create debug messengers, validation layers, buffers, arrays, etc.. Portal 2 gave me that same feeling. (Spoilers for Portal 2): [Falling down into Test Shaft 09 was the moment I realized this game is a lot deeper than I thought. You have to manage repulsion and propulsion gels, tractor beams, faith plates, lasers, and more.] Once you use OpenGL/play Portal, you start to get good at it and can crank out a playthrough/project in a few hours. With Vulkan/Portal 2, it takes a hell of a lot more dedication, but by god its worth it.

“I feel like they want a kinder, gentler Holocaust to present.” —Art Spiegelman
Two years ago, the McMinn County School Board in Tennessee banned the first—and only—Pulitzer Prize–winning graphic novel from their 8th grade curriculum: Art Spiegelman's Maus.

Me: hm, I want something to put on the TV as background noise... Huh. Looks like YouTube is recommending something called The Last Unicorn. That's perfect, it's probably some old shitty animation that has aged poorly! I can watch it ironically!
Me, 2 hours later as the credits roll: *crying, cheering, buying the book, composing the songs*
Me, 2 weeks later: So I have compiled all of the quotes from the book that I think could make good tattoos, and also, HOW HAVE I NEVER LEARNED ABOUT HOW THE LAST UNICORN FUCKING SLAPS??? This gay-ass little fairytale fed my soul! Watered my crops! Transed my gender! Can't believe I heard of this story from youtube recommendations, of all places!!
#original#the last unicorn#tlu#peter s beagle#molly gru#schmendrick#schmendrick the magician#two of my favorite characters in anything right there in the center of the story! and I'm glad I saw the film first!#my reading ability has diminished due to trauma disability etc. but it seems like having a visual reference actually really helped!#no wonder i only ever want to read fan fic! turns out reading is not actually Superior to other types of Storytelling. it's just different.#to say otherwise is snobbishness I have been eminently guilty of in my life!#but like it is easier for me to consume tv and movies and that is fine actually. also that's why I'm doing a graphic novel lol#because i wanted to make something i would actually be able to read if i found it at a library. altho the audio book IS gonna be bomb#the audiobook is for visually impaired readers and anyone who wants or needs it! accessible stories for everyone! yeah!!#my gender was already transed but now I've gained an ADDITIONAL gender! which one? I'll never tell 😘#i am so powerful i have so much fuckin gender. my wife has no gender. and she is equally as powerful.#and also she has STUDIED THE BLADE#mostly zoro's blades from One Piece#normally YouTube recommends me shit movies like idiocracy or smth this is like if every day ur cat brought you a piece of rotten food and#then one day it brings you a BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED TALE FEATURING MY BELOVED TWINK FUCK-UP WIZARD FRIEND AND MY ALL-TIME HOMEGIRL MOLLY GRU#and also it's soft and beautiful and funny and fucking weird!! i wrote melodies to the songs in the books on my ukulele

Merry mid-century Christmas
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mid-century modern design is characterized by minimalism, clean lines, geometric shapes, and bold colors -- an aesthetic on clear display in these holiday cards, primarily drawn from the Newberry's John M. Wing Foundation printing ephemera collection.
And what is ephemera? Glad you asked! Per our research guide:
At the Newberry Library, we use the general definition of ephemera offered by Maurice Rickards, namely the “minor transient documents of everyday life,” mostly printed and mostly on paper. The use of the word “transient” implies that once these items had served their intended purpose they were generally expected to be discarded. Paper is by far the most common medium but fabric, metal, wood, plastic, and other materials make up many ephemera. Some examples, moreover, are not printed but written out, stenciled, drawn, or painted...
