Been a hot minute since I've posted anything on the front page so I figured I'd write about things I've been up to and seen on the internet.
- Kaomoji A library of Japanese emoticons. (/ ̄ー ̄)/~~☆’.・.・:★’.・.・:☆
- DS and Wii Frutiger Aero Playlist Using tracks from the Nintendo Wii and DS. This is actually a pretty good ambient mix
- Underground America Stories about drugs. I have not read much of this yet but it looks interesting
- Microfiche, Microfilm and Other Minutiae Old educational film about archival technologies. Potential GIF material
- RetroGamesUltra Blog I stumbled on a while back about tinkering with old game consoles.
- Zimbabwe's Insane Public Transport System YouTube storytime video.
I think I'm going to be moving into a new apartment soon but technically it hasn't been confirmed yet. Various medical updates will be forthcoming. New art as well. I've mostly been making little sketches and anatomy studies the last couple of weeks.
That's all for now. Take care of yourself
I need to actually start drawing again. I made this doodle to capture the current state of my soul. I'm still dealing with mirtazipine discontinuation symptoms (haven't had coffee at all this week T_T) and I feel a bit under the weather but getting better.
I've made some minor updates to the website here and there. When you hover over the small navigation links in the sidebar they get a black background. I've also been working on using width and height properties for images to avoid layout shifts as everything loads.
Do you ever notice how often you use the word "I"? As I recall it's the most common word in the English language.
I have an idea for a game but it's still in the very early baby stages. I wanted to use Source but I think I'm going to end up using Godot or something. I will post screenshots as soon as I make something interesting.
I've made a couple of attempts at writing but they were both kind of lame so I'm just going to do a little update
Got VFS (vocal feminization surgery) last week and I'm still waiting for the post-op. I think it went well but I'm still kind of paranoid that the sutures came out or something lol. You can't use your voice at all for the first week so there's no way for me to tell until I go to the post-op appointment.
It's been one year since I got FFS, so that's two surgeries down assuming everything goes well. A lot of the time I'll pass until I start talking so I hope VFS will make a big difference. All the other surgeries are pretty affordable too, so in the future I don't necessarily have to work with insurance. That streamlines the process a lot.
The updated website has been up for about a week now. I still need to update all my local documentation etc. but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Probably more about this in a future blog post.
Now I need to decide on my next project. I'm thinking about trying to make a game. I also want to keep practicing art/drawing. And I would like to keep making small updates to the website.
Just a few more days until the post-op appointment!
