Ardium has apparently gotten a lot cuter in the last few years, much to my chagrin they don’t seem to offer this 3 pack of blank variety grid softcover notebooks anymore :/

I’ve had the Greek restaurant and voting stickers on the back of this notebook for most of the last year, just now added more Japanese candy packaging and Kewpee 👍

You could not pay me to talk to most of the people I thought were friends in K-12.
Of the ones who remain in touch-ish is the most awkward friendship I ever had (we are taking that shit to our graves) and someone who I rarely talked to (who is a really good photographer and he liked my work lol)
watching John Green talk about his buddy from high school who is still his friend and I’m curious, is that common for people on here?

I appreciate the waitlist feature, but it makes me think someone sent a DM or even a direct email for a hot minute when they just signed up to be pinged when I open that service type.

I'm turning off email notifs for vGen waitlist if they're going to send an email with "Pwease open for this commission?!! 😭" in the subject line every time lol

I still take character commissions FYI, happy to work within budgets as well (maybe you don't need full color artwork? maybe you don't want a motorcycle? Send me a message 👍)

My exp with vGen is that it helps lower the barrier of entry for people new to or wary of commissions, the very visible accountability and transparency puts people at ease!

As an artist, I love all the detail I can add but the difference between adding to portfolio/showcase/samples is fussy.

If you notice any errors or have any problems purchasing or accessing things, please someone let me know lol. Most of the listings are unchanged but for the video file assets, I had to generate new links.

Honestly I was a little surprised how many messages I got asking when my store would reopen!

Discord posted an update abt their age verification - I feel the need to inform people that all of these things were already true last year when they had that data breach that exposed people's IDs. Bad actors got into a customer support account that had access to tickets with people's IDs in them.

I'm not attached to or use Discord much or at all, but I have friends who are and I'm sure there are others too who depend a lot on it too. So I took a little bit of time to write up suggestions and recommendations I gave them for certain usages that may be worth considering. I hope this helps some.

People are so nostalgic for the 00s and Web 2.0 and everything - we can return right now, today, with updated security standards and certificates lol.

Anyway I hope people start making self hosted things again and using E2E chat systems and using BBS style stuff for community discussion. You don't have to do all your communication on one platform.

My brother and I used to send each other Youtube links using the (now dead) Youtube chat system lol

I love all my friends I made through Discord but I really don't like Discord itself.
February 10, 2026 at 12:20 AM
We have traded security for convenience often, and as someone whose livelihood depends on "being where the people are" at this time, it puts me in a bad position. Discord is my least favorite solution to a lot of problems -plenty of people have pointed out its gross vulnerabilities.
February 10, 2026 at 12:20 AM
Discord is not something I used much until I started watching a lot of streams and following indie devs, and subsequently joining those communities. No one wants to sign up for "another thing" so they just make discord channels, which filled the vacuum left by BBS/forums.

After my latest string of bad luck I feel chained to both Windows and Discord and it sucks. I switched to Windows almost exclusively about 5 years ago (it feels like 500) for gaming and ease of software use. I had been running Macs my entire life up to that point but they were just too $$$.
