one last thing from prepping for this webcomics class. i'm going to do an exercise on elevator pitches where everyone makes up a ten-word pitch to accurately encapsulate a famous piece of media. these are the examples i came up with
the point of the exercise is that you need to be able to summarize your stories succinctly and clearly in order to sell them. the other, secret bonus point of the exercise is that elevator pitches are always at least a little bit bullshit
These kobolds are on an adventure! One is having a little more fun than the other though...
So.. I'm designing a food system for a 4X / strategy video game, and I have the following categories of plants:
Trees, with/without fruit.
Bushes, with/without berries.
Grasses, with/without edible grains.
I also want to include tubers and legumes somehow. Legumes might be modelled as a special grain, or.. something.
Am I missing something?
Do I have some bad biases I'm not noticing?
me: *sees boosts of the art of me on the timeline* "Oh wow this is really cute art! I love this person's sona! Skunks are great and I'm glad others like them too...wait..."
me: *squints* "...what the fuck that's me. i'm looking at the art I commissioned. o____o "
my brain: [ERROR: UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: NO REACTION APPLICABLE]
I want to introduce a new hashtag, meant for small acts of direct action you spot in your community: #OurStreets. It could be graffiti, stickers, supplies left for your houseless neighbors, hostile architecture being dismantled - whatever, as long as you're *not* the one who did it
And to kick it off, let me introduce you to the building formerly known as Walli's Market. I don't know much about this place other than what it says on the signs (it was a convenience store in the middle of a neighborhood) - it's been in this state as long as I've lived here. It doesn't appear to have been broken into at any point
Outside is the biggest community library I've ever seen plus a smattering of stickers, including these huge art pieces on the outside of the windows (I don't like the conflation of empathy with kindness, it's a bit of an ableist microagression, but I appreciate the sentiment)
I wish I could meet whoever made this their pet project, because this is really inspiring
so I figure I'm gonna get into GZDoom mods and try some of them out at some point since I saw that Mr. Friendly mod that I really wanna try out because it looks friggin adorable.
I've already played Brutal Doom and was like "yeah this is pretty okay" but I want some really good, really OUT THERE mods to play, that are either silly, funny, charming and cute, or a combination of.
or that are just really cool, that works too.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
