Blender has been an amazing tree, bearer of many gifts for the decade+ I've been using it. And Geonodes is yet another one of its noble, powerful, tasty, nutritious fruits.

Made a little thing for fun

Painting the new coins

Despite was in going on in the industry, I think learning 3D makes you a better all-around artist, technical problem solver and helps improve your spatial reasoning and visualization so never a loss :)

So the gf was talking about her apprehension at the new HP HBO show and JK transphobia but then was like "But I’d like to support those young actors" and I said "I think the trans kids need more support than actors in an HBO show" and she was like "you’re absolutely right"

See how easy that is

My dad’s complaints were that Canada don’t care if you’re Canadian or not, only if you pay taxes.

I just wanted to be like "Good?"

New coins IRL
I love them

My Army uncle was going on yesterday abouy how far the Canadian army has fallen since 1940s, after my dad went on a rant about how Canada isn’t a nation but a tax zone. I politely asked uncle what the tax rate was back then. "Only 3%! But they imposed some taxes for the war"

It was 3% + 88%

I was expecting something so much more dramatic from the video. Dude slowly toppled out an opening

"go jump in a lake", "take a long walk off a short pier", "put an egg in your shoe and beat it", "go peddle your papers" these are just some of the violent, actionable threats journalists and academics face every two to three months on bluesky, or as some call it The Murder Website.

Nobody is responding with criticism on your article because it's ridiculous. Concerns about immigration have been huge mainly from the right for years.

I use Blender because my video editing requirements aren't super big but I also get this feeling every day when using the Affinity Suite too. Open Source and/or affordable software continues to be, in fact, better than bloated monthly subscription garbage

Some words I've filled out, drawing the big symbols myself with the simple drawing tool I put in. I even got a "clear" and "undo" function in there.

I'm seeding this with an enormous spreadsheet I made, that I'm parsing as a CSV into a Dictionary in Godot. It wasn't my original intent for the spreadsheet but it worked out that I can use that data that I spent so long organizing! :D

As I get more comfortable with Godot I am again using it to make another very niche but very useful tool for my homebrew D&D campaign :)

New hex coin design

When you cross political lines because of moral reasons, I'd advise you to deconstruct your speech and think about terms you picked up which carry specific beliefs. The reason that different language is used on each side is because winning a war of words is the first step to winning a war of ideas.

An idea I had about hex tiling on a hexagonal torus
