Russian American ice wolf. New here.
Pinned
Rawr! I'm Igrik Severin (Игрик Северин), a Russian American ice wolf. I'm passionate about mathematics and science and currently do after-school tutoring in these fields. I also enjoy ice hockey. I'm protective of my friends, but watch out — I might nom you! Nice to meet you!
Is the moon is waxing or waning? Here's how to tell. A full moon will rise and set directly opposite the sun. If it's earlier, it's an evening moon and waxing. If it's later, it's a morning moon and waning. Remember that "an Evening moon is Eager to Expand, while a Morning moon Melts away".

I've commissioned a new ref sheet and finally replacing my ill-fitting boots.

Worth it. Next few months should be great for me.

Earlier tonight, I had a scare of my father experiencing chest pain. This forced an ER visit. I was worried of a potential heart attack, but the tests just came back negative.

My first Blender animation is complete! The planets are in orbit around the Sun over a period of 300 years, using actual math.

So I got the hang of Blender scripting and I got the planets into orbit. Now to render the entire thing... which will take about... ten hours. The entire animation should be about twenty-four minutes long and cover 300 years of orbital time. Hope it doesn't crash my laptop...

I'm actually quite proud I did NOT manage to crash Blender this time! These are my first successful renders in the program. Neptune and Saturn. I'm trying to build a simple model of the solar system as my first ever project, the Sun and its orbiting planets.

Where is the cake? Is it a lie? But I am older now... so there must be cake somewhere.

PSA: Make sure that you know where your fire extinguisher is, and goddammit, don't plug ten things into the same outlet including a microwave (???) unless you know what you're doing, and if you don't, just... don't. If a safety official would faint at your streaming setup, seriously correct it.

These last few weeks have been hectic on me. I've been trying to keep it together the best I can. For those who know what I've been going through, thanks for your support. I truly care about my friends in the furry fandom, a home away from home.

So, I resigned from my tutoring job today. And my resignation was actually accepted. I have no idea what I'm going to do now. But that's a future me problem.

The kobolds and cobalt share a name. Why? The metal cobalt was unwanted by miners, as smelting its ores failed to give the valuable silver. The primary cobalt ores also contain arsenic, which when heated gives toxic fumes, causing miners to fall ill and even die. Hence, it became "the goblin metal".

Frustrated VTuber? Need a way to remember the planets?

Is a hybrid between a lion and a tiger called a liger or a tigon? Well, both are valid. What's the difference, you ask? Well, who's the father?
All organisms have a father and mother. When naming hybrids, the father comes first, so a liger has a lion dad, and a tigon has a tiger dad. Now you know.

Saturn gets more moons. 128 at once. The current count is 274.

I feel soooooo bad for those who have to update Wikipedia.

New art I got! This is Igrik in action on the ice, an updated version of some previous art I got. The artist this time is @xavmaldonian01.bsky.social. Check him out and definitely go commission him - he's a pleasure to work with!

Happy New Year! I wish you happiness, health, joy, success, and much more in this new year of 2025. С Новым Годом! С Новым Счастьем! May all your wishes come true!

After several years of stagnation, I want to move forward out of this rut now that my mental health is much better than it was.

New profile pic here, drawn by the wonderful @orbitalfox.bsky.social. Check him out if you haven't already.

What a year. Just... what a year. I'm ready to move on to the next. I'm currently finishing up on writing my New Year's resolutions to give some direction in my life going forward.

I'm just... shocked and numb. This isn't what I had hoped for. Depression is hitting hard again, and I will be stepping away from social media in order to process everything. If you wish to reach out, check in, hug, or just chat, Telegram is the best way to connect.

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,051,264!

A bit late, but hey, 51,264 people late to the million party isn't too bad, right?

How time has flown. At the start of the year, I was content with potentially not having a job (or even a job offer) and being in any sort of relationship... and now I have both. This has truly been a great fortune and the year isn't even halfway done yet. I start training soon, so wish me luck!

Woo! My translation work is done. Now for a deserved rest from that for a while.

Translating into multiple languages, even with the help of native speakers, can indeed give oneself a massive headache. It is so fun to deal with. I might need some medicine soon...
