@bx that sounds enchanting~ thanks!

@bx that sounds great! with extra froth, an unholy amount please

and also an iced coffee please. black, like my soul
shaken, like me
and chilled by the clutches of death itself

(talking to a barista) could i get a caramel mAcHiNaTiOn?

(trying to remember how to spell macchiato)

ah yes, thanks

@zoe birthday, happy~ ^^

@noiob this probably isn't surprising, but it also lacks being able to pick focus points in pictures so the thumbnails of my drawings don't do psychic damage to me when i post them

that's actually the same things that made tusky a deal breaker for me

i do kinda like how it feels! but it really has a long way to go before i'd probably even consider using it

@m455 oh yeah! it feels wonderful to be able to use lisp for customization~

but also yuuuuup! emacs also definitely has a lot of extremely unusual opinions if you aren't already completely submerged in them

@codl at this point, i'm most curious about the intersection of personality traits that would lead someone to think "ah yes, this surely isn't going to be an utterly bizarre interaction"

@dexiheart yuuuuup, there's definitely a confidence aspect to it

i guess it's pretty natural to lean on the opinions of others when you aren't confident in your own–but that also means that it can be pretty easy to justify ignoring how things work differently for you, and that's always a disaster

it's really hard to tell when things that make your creativity unique are shining through vs not just lacking important context–after all, you can't get external confirmation for something so internal

@dexiheart oh, absolutely!

it's always just interesting when that relationship goes squarely against the advice of people who are much better than i am

it means that i internalize advice i don't really feel quite a lot because the people who gave it to me know a lot more than i do, and "what if my instincts are secretly bad habit pitfalls?"

(this thought is brought to you by trying to do linework in pencil crayon, doing experimental coloring with gel pen, extremely disliking the result, and not being able to play around with it at all to find out what would work better)

sometimes people tell i should try to draw in more permanent mediums because committing to lines and being more okay with drawing badly helps with being creative

but i find in practice the opposite seems to be true?

like, being able to erase and experiment with 90 different things quickly has been a lot more informative and fun for seeing what works, and what doesn't

if i try to draw with things i can't tweak, i just draw worse and try less since each experiment takes so much more effort

hee. i got some gel pens a while ago, and i'm still figuring out how to use them tastefully

it's nice being able to have more bold colors for lines though!
