This painting is the result of a YouTube tutorial that I found, and I think it turned out pretty cute. I’m still trying to learn how to use my watercolours properly, and sometimes I don’t really have any creative ideas but I do still want to be creative. Following along with tutorials can scratch that itch, and teach me some neat techniques.

We visited some friends recently, and while we were there, my daughter got to try out Dreamlight Valley. While she does not know many Disney films yet (except for the first Frozen movie… who is surprised? ;) ), she certainly knows Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Minnie, and Donald. She was really excited to see them walking around in the world.
Additionally, our friend showed her how to decorate the house and how your character can pet the animals and harvest apples. I already own the game, so this is some…

Threadsnakes are (get this) snakes, in the family Leptotyphlopidae, and are also called blind snakes. They are very tiny, usually not exceeding 12 inches, and look like small earthworms. Upon closer inspection, they are not worms because they have tiny dot eyes (as if drawn on by pencil) and a mouth with a jaw!
They barely have much of a mouth, with the upper jaws being immobile and without any teeth. They're found pretty on pretty much every continent except for Australia but are…

High Violet
图1 《High Violet》專輯封面
专辑信息
专辑名称： High Violet
歌手： The National
年份： 2010-05-10
时长： 47:40
要說這張專輯什麼最吸引我，無疑是主唱 Matt Beringer 的嗓音，低沉而温暖，在專輯裡你能聴到他的中音和低音，都很好聴。 Matt Beringer 的個子很高大，有時他戴著眼鏡，看著像是一個教授。
The National 這支樂隊的組成也很有趣，由主唱 Matt Berninger、雙胞胎兄弟 Aaron Dessner（吉他、鋼琴、鍵盤）與 Bryce Dessner（吉他、鋼琴、鍵盤），以及 Scott Devendorf（貝斯）與 Bryan Devendorf（鼓手）兩兄弟組成，也是挺少見的。
High Violet 是我聴的第一張 The National 的専輯，整體聴起來給人一種忧郁且深沉的感覺。封面看著像是插在瓶中的散亂的花，花瓣由許多單詞組成。
専輯裡我喜歡的几首是： Terrible Love 、 Sorrow 、 Little Faith 、…

We're only on the 5th day of Blaugust and I'm already struggling to think of something to write about. I went through the list of prompts and nothing is standing out there either. I think I'll just do a little freewriting (freewheeling?) today and see how it goes.
Let's start with some music I've been loving lately:
The album Come Closer by Tomora - a trip-hop collaboration between Aurora and Tom Rowlands of the Chemical Brothers. I always love seeing new trip-hop releases because it's a bit of…

Sometimes a piece of media comes along that makes you think “Gee, did they make this just for me?” and while the answer is obviously “NO”, for me personally Star Driver feels that way.
It released back in 2010 and was created by Studio Bones, known at the time in the west in particular for Fullmetal Alchemist, Soul Eater and Ouran High School Host Club.
The anime is a beautifully animated combination of mecha, song pieces and magical boy. Yup. Boy. The titular boy Takuto is the Ginga Bishounen (…

🎞 watched “The Odyssey” at the Metreon in 70mm IMAX on opening weekend, and mostly enjoyed it. No spoilers in this post.My pal Rohit (@rohit.khare.org) had bought tickets last year, had a spare, and invited me along last minute. After an early dinner at Cha Cha Cha (@chachachasf.com) we made our way to the Metreon.There was a line to get in. I have never before seen a line merely to get into the IMAX theater. We only missed maybe 1-2 movie trailers.Our seats were in the front row, only a few sea…
