As much as I love my cabin in #Resonite, I also have an apartment in the city. Spent the evening cleaning up the physics of the place, as it needed some work. But it's nice and cozy....

So, that pic of me sitting in a stonehenge area in Resonite? I made that whole area. In game. In VR. I "drew" it, by sketching convex shapes into plinths.

It's so wierd creating stuff in CR. Drawing objects, pulling and stretching them with your hands...being ablke to grab and twist and move the stuff around to create. It really feels organic, and like building in real life.

If learning to make tortillas makes me an abuelita, does having this hard candy make me a granny?

Auntie?

So, in an attempt to temporarily escape the nightmare of the last few weeks, I worked on updating the bed in EmuVR. Looking online, I was super surprised to find the actual pillow cases I had in the 80s, AND that the photo was totally texture ready.

The bedspread was harder to find, so I simply grabbed my current comforter, took a pic of that, and textured the bed with it. I have a thing for warm reds and browns....

All the comforts of my home in the 90s. Gonna need it for when I upload my brain to the cloud to escape the horrors of meatspace.

Where's Mr. Scott when you need him....

Ice Cream #3 - Finally. Teaberry.

And all my frozen cream is out of the freezer. Thawing cream from frozen is wierd. It never liquefies and stays chunky solid. Until you start to stir it. Then it literally melts back into cream.

Dairy is WIERD.

So, my Holy Basil plant is doing quite well. Tons of leaves, and a bug I can't seem to catch that is nibbling on some of them. Not sure how I should start harvesting the leaves, but there's enough there to make any food I make with it very happy.

I love how his stems are reaching out for the sun.

In other news, I know they made my arcade stick to look like an NES Advantage, but it's a great scheme. Every time I look at it I want to press those big red buttons.

How do I still have four hours left in my day? After all this? I should use my time productively:

Current Mood:

1787:
Elizabeth Willing Powel: "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"
Benjamin Franklin: "A republic, if you can keep it."

2024:
Waiter: "Anything on the menu you'd like to order?"
The Electorate: "I'd like fascism please. Well done. Topped with ketchup."

[Parody Before Bed]

And with 0% of the polls reporting, the Cartoon/Fantasy Organization has forecast the winner of the Presidency as Hatsune Miku!

(Apologies to the original poster on Threads whose name I forgot to write down)

Celebrating getting paid on my second writing gig, hitting the halfway point in my third, and two clean bills of health from my doctors.

One does not celebrate with just sandwiches and cereal.

I'm not saying my little town had built a super secret wind force field, but... ::points::

Looking up some references for an opera house for a project, and I'm stiill completely blown away by San Antonio's Majestic Theater.

I love that they start shows "at dusk" and by the end of the show is midnight.

I didn't even wait to dig in before taking a pic of my free pizza....

Another last minute update to the EmuVR Bedroom: I painted the walls and replaced the carpet with what I had back in the 1989! Really feeling warm and cozy in there

But that bed and pillow have GOT to go.

Updated my EmuVR 90s bedroom with a bunch of toys, a plant (so my Basil plant has a little presence in there), and some game lighting so I can play in the dark!

Thoughts Before Bed

Thanks to a friend, I now have my own personal fairy fountain in VR.

You can poke the fairies. ❤
