No, I don’t want to “save” as to some nebulous online location I have no idea if I can reach or not next time I open my laptop.

I want to SAVE the file. On my computer. And USB stick.

(I know “download” is right there, but I WILL bitch and moan when “save” doesn’t mean properly saving anymore 😤)

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 5d

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is watching Green leave for a costume party, all donned up in a suit and a mask.
Blue: Have fun at the party!
Green: I will! See you tomorrow!

Now alone, Blue looks around himself.
Blue, thinking: Huh. I've got the whole place all to myself. I can do whatever I want.

Blue proceeds to sit on his computer, quietly playing videogames, and then going to bed at 9 pm.

Update: (because I forgot earlier) The egg did not stick! In fact, the force of a bubble erupting from underneath it had the entire egg hop up from the depression in the pan for a fraction of a second, so you can say it did the opposite of sticking. ✨👌

Finally got to restoring the old cast iron pancake pan that was a rusty mess after decades in a shed and a few months out under bare sky.

Testing if I got the surface done right. One singular egg. Will it stick?

”You’re in luck, Wuffe. I recently overheard someone speaking at the tavern about My parcel being located in Kaisaniemen metroaseman kallioväestönsuoja. You better bring potions if you’re going in there. I’ve heard there’s something sinister going on in there. Daedra worshippers, or such.”

… You might have to spend 3 hours in a maddeningly convoluted dungeon to find your parcel 😬

(HELSINKI *does* famously have a pretty huge underground complex underneath it)

This sounds like trying to complete a quest in Arena or Daggerfall.
Go look for item/person X in city Y.

”Good day to you sir. Please tell me all you’ve heard lately about My parcel.”

”Hail thee. Have you heard talk of My parcel lately?”

So I made a sort of placeholder AD account since I like having an acc for horny things, but twitter became basically unusable.

Don’t know yet what I’ll post, or when, but feel free to follow if you like!

Last night I dreamt I was playing Heroes of Might and Magic 3, but then the game turned into Age of Empires 2, and then it suddenly got some game mechanics from Age of Wonders, and then suddenly some from Empire Earth.

Obviously my subconscious thinks I should play ~25 year old strategy games. :D

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 19d

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are walking. Blue listens intently as Green goes on talking as he talks, leading the way.
Green: Once we get home, I'll read a book, weave two baskets, re-arrange the pantry, learn esperanto-

Blue interrupts Green, who turns to listen.
Blue: That's quite a list. Are you sure you're being completely realistic?

Green takes a momentary pause from being cartoonish, being now depicted as a painstakingly detailed and shaded painting of a fox, with fur texture, whiskers and all.
Extremely realistic Green: Of course.

Returning back to normal, Green keeps walking. Blue follows, looking at Green with suspicion.
Blue: How long did it take you to draw that gag?
Green: A lot longer than I am willing to admit.

Years of scientific studies have shown that these are the different types of yeens there are. Both Triangle Ones and Raisins can be more wimpish or wompa.

A wimpy-wompa is a perfect in-between.
There might be ones that fall outside of this spectrum, expect more info from respected sources soon.

Scientific chart of the hyena (yeen) spectrum. From wimpy to wompa. Theres also raisins and triangle ones.

It’s always either slop (”art” or other ”content” generated) or supposedly useful tools that at worst distract and disrupt or at best do nothing (”productivity” tools, ”solutions” or ”assistants” that techbros manage to sell to corporations)

I yearn for unapologetically ”cool” aesthetics to become trendy again.

Rap, techno and metal music! Skateboards! Lasers! Explosions and fire! Graffiti! Bang! Boom! 2kool4shcool! Middle finger! Fast scifi cars with nitro systems and fire and guns and missiles! Caps worn backwards!
