my manager just asked me what my hobbies are outside of work and i cannot accurately describe how surreal it was. it was like being asked by the guy who locked you in the dungeon if you used to do anything fun before they locked you in the dungeon.

how?? just how?

they used to make smackable technology. you used to be able to hit your tv when it didn't work good.

Please someone redraw this with Dr. Ratio and Aventurine because this is the exact vibe they have in my head post-Penacony.

april 25 - 2024

It's high noon in Penacony...

"I cant draw" then do it bad who gives a fuck.....

So I'm going to tell a story today because I want to share something that was important to me, even just a small thing. Something positive.

I thrift a lot because it's affordable, keeps stuff from getting thrown in a landfill rather than be used, and it's fun to root around like a racoon and find things.

Yesterday, we came across a box. It was just a reused kind of box, from another toy - but on it was written: "Do NOT throw away! DO NOT LOSE" - when I opened it up, there were three small rocks in there.

I dont think they're "valuable" rocks - I couldn't tell you what kind of rock they are even. But it was a strange moment being there, holding a beat up box with three tiny little stones in it while resellers were looking for sneakers to put on Poshmark. Book guys frantically scanning barcodes and throwing books into bins. These were really important to someone once. Maybe they still are. Maybe they were here by mistake, but at one point at least they were of great value to a person, and now I was holding them.

Anyway - if you're reading this somewhere and want them back - I have your special rocks. They're hanging out with my rocks in the meantime, so they wont be lonely.

My favourite example of the domino effect

what if i just rest my eyes for a second

wait a minute

hbo max blocks screenshots even when I use the snipping tool AND firefox AND ublock which is a fucking first. i will never understand streaming services blocking the ability to take screenshots thats literally free advertising for your show right there. HOW THE HELL IS SOMEBODY GONNA PIRATE YOUR SHOW THROUGH SCREENSHOTS. JACKASS

I think it would be really funny if Ratio didn't know how to play poker like

Aventurine, shuffling a deck: you want to play a round of cards?

Ratio, nodding to look like he can play cards:

Ratio as soon as he has the cards: ... do you have any 2s...?

Aventurine, realizing he never specified what card game and doesn't want fall for whatever powerplay move Ratio is pulling: ... go fish

its so difficult to draw anatomy. and objects. and backgrounds. and clothing. and colors. and lighting. i honestly dont know how i ever managed to draw anything in my entire life

DO NOT DO THIS!!!

If a website has a paywall, like New York Times, DO NOT use the ctrl+A shortcut then the ctrl+c shortcut as fast as you can because then you may accidentally copy the entire article before the paywall comes up. And definitely don't do ctrl+v into the next google doc or whatever you open because then you will accidentally paste the entire article into a google doc or something!!!! I repeat DO NOT do this because it is piracy which is absolutely totally wrong!!!
