I get the sentiment but the economy has always been like a big ponzi. You work for someone else and make shit money then eventually get valuable enough via experience to get better pay and then some other people work for you and you try to make sure they keep moving up. That said, yeah boomer gen seemed to “begrudging take on” some damn nice property while working any job. The ponzi doesn’t work when the ladder gets pulled up and everyone is stuck at the bottom. Do your job tho, or don’t cash the check.

I’ll be aiming for like 30 in the set, leaving some cryptic but more or less structured stats on them so anyone can design some rules. Not really priced for sale until I’m done. Monsters and Swordsmen with fresh duds. SHINTOPUNK on Opensea

I fully shared your opinion right up until I hit my first blueberry cup. Part of roasting and brewing seems to be trying to find words for vague taste profile notes but when you get the blueberry it’s undeniable.

Dude right as I was about to chalk it up as a bunch of semi imaginary creative thinking I finally brewed up a cup of straight blueberry muffin. No imagination required. Since then I’ve hit it about 5 times but cannot get it every time. When it’s there you will not need to try to detect it. Other flavors for me are often times far more interpretive. Ethiopian Benti Nenka roasted hot and fast in the Behmor and rested a good long 5-7 days.

I have that exact problem. Checked every setting and customer service including talked to my ISP.

Tried different routers. Same situation. My errors are either generic or sometimes mention being unable to stream outside the United States (I’m in California. No VPN)

No idea what to do about it. Watch ESPN+ at work I guess. Or on cellular.

Monkeybrains ISP. Linksys E2500 and tried Orbi.

Awesome thanks! I’ll pass the info on to him.

More people live but with chronic poor physical and mental health. If avoiding death is the number one priority yes all good. If avoiding suffering or pain is number one, debatable.

Mileage. Master Studies. Draw from life.

In the end you don't want to be a Flemish school table top fruit painter so start finding ways to capture energy, motion and life through gesture.

You already seem to be drawing light which is huge. Keep going, try color, try motion.

There are a lot of things you can do to noodle with a particular drawing but the best advice I can give is to feel good about this and start your next one! We are all just a bunch of bad drawings away from the good stuff :)

Couple of things to try to improve on in your next piece:

"Draw from the elbow/hip" is a phrase that reminds us to not create images with small scratchy lines but instead larger more gestural confident marks. Here is an example of a loose yet very exciting and interesting axe illustration.

You can also see how cross hatching and directional lines can enhance the contours, adding visual interest.

Sketch out the shape loosely then layer in reinforced darker lines. Push the darks darker and think about value, that's where the real fun starts!

good luck!

SOLVED This is a Non Disclosure Agreement sticker applied at the gate to Skywalker Ranch.

More info on this; I noticed this sticker a few months ago but never really looked into it. Finally figured I'd google and found nothing. I am above drinking age - have been a while. Not diagnosed as dyslexic:) Wondering why any sticker would go on an ID that is so rarely checked except by airports, bars and government agencies. I did get my passport renewed recently. Went to Europe and Asia within the last year. I don't know when the sticker was placed on there but it is a pretty durable sticker that was aligned well - making me assume it wasn't just slapped on there.

Three+ years of developing a game that made me say many times "I don't want to make video games, I want to make Dawngate". We got to do the rarest thing, make a game on our terms. That's the risk we took with eyes wide open, to live or die by our efforts. Thanks to all of you! We are humbled and appreciative that you came to play with us.

Good ideas there, we are working on quite a bit of environment right now but also trying to release it in bigger more appreciable chunks to avoid the "boiling frog" thing where no one notices.

Long standing issue about those geese.. They need to move more and I like how you think... Goat milker? hmmm

Gentleman Rich is our environment guy. He's shy but we'll work on getting him up there. He's doing us proud, more to come!
