I got nothing done today!!!!!

October 8th, 2024

I'm suffering the monthly blood curse lads, it sucks!! It hit me super rough today, ooooughhhhh!!

I saw Look Back last night in theaters though. I'd like to talk more about my thoughts on some bits and pieces of it later because I loved the one shot and stuff about people becoming artists always gets me good!! It was good!! They really Got Fujimoto's style for the girls.... they look amazing!!

Anyways it gave me the inspo to finally get my other table setup for art. Earlier this year I snagged a good sized display tablet for a good price because I've always wanted to try it out,

but,

My desk just doesn't have the room for it/proper setup to make it work!!! I can't redo my entire desk just for it, I have to work here!! And game here! And it's a U desk to it's a bit shorter to my left n right ya know? It just didn't work out at all.

At the start of this year I set up a desk behind this desk to do my sewing work at. I enjoyed it, but eventually moved back to my U desk because I'm just a widdle creature of habit... I'm comfortable here... So my other desk has been just another place to help me when I have to arrange a lot of fabric n stuff.

Seeing Fujino last night though with her fuckoff huge tablet had me go, man, I should set mine back up. I could put it at my other desk... I can just set it up with my laptop....

So I did.

Yayyy!!!

I already had a widdle bluetooth mouse and a widdle bluetooth keyboard so I'm set actually! Any issues I could think of were quickly taken care of by past me. Thanks!

I really do enjoy also drawing with my huion(not display) tablet, I've used drawing tablets since I was like 16 lmao. It's built into me. But there's a certain feeling to being able to draw directly onto the screen. I just gotta get used to it, it's a pretty big change!

So now, I can do both! I can draw at my main computer or shuffle over 5 feet and play with my display tablet!

Switching back to my regular monitor is already feeling weird though. I had used my display tablet as my main monitor since I set it up and was too lazy to switch back to my old ones. The gamma on it is a lot worse?fuckier? So even though I feel I've properly calibrated this one it feels soooo intense. So bold, strong!! But I had a similar onboarding process when switching to my display, so give it a few days and I'll adjust. The human brain is amazing.

Oh yeah, on the previous topic of "I will shrimply find art in places that isn't social media", an artist I discovered on Cohost and then lost because they deleted(I tracked down their other socials) just sent out a newsletter! They're sharing their Goretober 2018-2019 collections for free from today until early November.

Their work is spectacular, but of course it is Goretober work so please mind the content warnings when viewing. You should be able to suss out if you're interested based on them being Gore before even clicking that link. There's content warnings at the top before you get to see any art so I trust you'll be fine.
