non, rien de rien

~ I finished the Eternal Punishment LP last night, and now I am super bummed out. There were legit tears (prob would've been more if I'd played it myself). I just. UGH. I kind of want to make a post about it, but it would probably be all handwaving and snotty crying, tbh.

~ I got an Iain M Banks book out of the library, as it was right next to my hand when I was standing at the SFF shelves, and I feel like the universe has been poking me to read his stuff lately. Anyway, I've had it a week and not touched it since I haven't felt like reading in the last however fucking long. It is one of the later Culture ones, so I'm probably making a horrible mistake by starting with that one.

~ it has been hotter than Satan's arsehole for the last week, and is set to continue, and no no no do not want. I dislike hot weather at the best of times, but I like it even less when it's so gross feeling, and the temperature is almost 30°C

[insert obligatory "i'm sure it never used to get this hot when i was a teenager!"]

~ Yet again regretting not continuing more regularly with pixel art way back in 2003/4, whenever it was I started doing it. I mean, I'm better at it than I used to be, but most of that betterness has come along in the last few years, where I've made more of a concerted effort (and even then I don't think I've done as much of that as I have trad art. But then again, I've been doing trad art all my life, so ???? *shrug emoji*).

Anyway, going to install an app on my tablet and have a noodle on there, and see what happens!

I'm also going to try out a thing I saw on pinterest a while back, which involves pixels to some degree, though it also involves painting. I want to paint so much! and I just feel like I haven't had the brain space to do it lately (lately being going on a year at this point). So. Going to make an effort to that, too.

Ah I just purchased the first Culture book the other day! People have been buzzing about Iain Banks and I've never read any of his books!

I hope you manage to get to painting :) I'd love to see what you create!
