Interesting to see the regional differences in cone-on-statues. I'm so used to the rounded cone on the Duke in Glasgow, the flat-faced cone here made me gasp in delight.

I have decided to "... in this economy!?" my search for now, because any sort of RAM or GPU that might be necessary for dev immediately adds stupid money to the costs.
Thanks, AI.

that second episode started to feel a bit devastating and I've been watching too many twee holiday romance movies recently, so I hope our horny hockey boys end up living happily ever after making cupcakes together and nothing bad ever happens.

Oof, yeah that sort of perfectionism-inertia is hard to crack. It's been such a great outlet to have to just tinker with drawing and music, hopefully something cracks your brother's armour soon.

The thing that cracked it for me, were gifts from people. The guilt of not making use of them overrode the fear enough 😅
Being encouraged despite inexperience is unfortunately missing in so many places, but just that idea of it all being exploration and building that foundation changes everything.

I'm someone who has questioned their ability in this regard. I think there is an element of stubbornness, but like 90% of it is a sort of fear (for me at least).
I'm equally in awe of how artists work, and have been discouraged by teachers/leaders over the years 🫠

I saw a headline for a review getting passed around when it first came out that basically went: "unlike the story of Frankenstein, GDT makes a point to make man the real monster..." and I wonder if he had to be heavy handed so that people didn't think Victor was just a cool alpha man or something.

Tool was one of the best shows I've been to, I think it was the Lateralus tour I saw them on.
I've vicariously seen Primus through the effusive stories my sister-in-law (favourite band) shares, but never made it to one myself.
