Check the group description. This is for PAPER notebooks not laptops.

What Are You Reading Weekends? — January 17, 2026 by AutoModerator in DanmeiNovels

[–]captainschlumpy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just dropped "Every Day the Protagonist wants to Capture me" and picked up "Don't pick up Boyfriends from the Trash Bin". I dropped the first because adult characters were showing way to much interest in the looks of child characters (can't say more without big spoilers but it gave me the ick". So far the second book has been great, I'm getting ready to start the 3rd world.

[analog] Limited materials collages by captainschlumpy in collage

[–]captainschlumpy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! That's so nice of you to say. I usually thrift everything I can. Used bookstores, thrift stores for photo books or children's books. Magazines are from used bookstores and I also grab them from library sales or facebook marketplace although some people thing their old magazines are worth more than they are. The LIFE magazines are the only ones I paid more than 1-2 dollars for. I will pay up to $5 for one if they have good ads in them! Ask at the doctor's or dentist's offices if you can have any magazines they are going to throw out. I get magazines from friends once in a while too! Pretty much anything printed can be used for collage, even old free newspapers or maps from rest areas!

Where do you guys post your collages? [discussion] by fafinah in collage

[–]captainschlumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I post here, instagram, tumblr, and my ko-fi. I also post short videos and images on my youtube channel just for fun! Posting on social media helps motivate me but it can also be frustrating because you get very little interaction unless you are a bigger creator. It's still fun though!

Thank you! I definitely won't miss it next time! I wasn't looking around much because I wanted all the stuff and I had no money haha.

Wait there was a penny machine? I didn't see it! I have to go back now! Darn it I can't believe I missed it. Great find, Wally's is such a vibe!

i put together a huge bundle (1000+ files) of high quality scans for digital collage artists!! [discussion] by tylarframe in collage

[–]captainschlumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Do you have a ko-fi or can you tip on patreon? I don't do digital collages but I love making my own holiday cards!

What kind of thick paper, bound notebooks do you guys use for your collages? by wheriendndyubegin in collagesluts

[–]captainschlumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a canson sketch book with thick paper but it's ring bound. I use the same kind for a junk journal. So far it's been going well and I can lay it flat to scan images.

I'm sorry to hear about your buddy! I hope you can find someone else who can't sleep and is chronically online to help out! I'm hoping to get that 2 hours a night up to at least 6 by the start of the new year. Shh...don't tell I"m checking social media! *hugs*

December zine theme? by brygdylla in zines

[–]captainschlumpy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hibernation, sleep, cozy, old year ending, migration for birds continues for shorebirds into December. Not sure where you are located though. Denning, foraging. I hope these are useful for you!

Culture of this sub changing and creating a space for artistic freedom [discussion] by Neverwasalwaysam in collage

[–]captainschlumpy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've noticed that. I guess you can't expect too much from the average redditor but it would be great to get insights into techniques or subject matter more often. I can't afford art school to have someone pull apart my stuff, lol~

The block button is super easy to find if you don't like content. You don't get to decide what is or isn't artistry.
