how could you like the colour yellow

see a therapist immediately

I actually used to hate it! Like, actually despise it! Yellow was too bright, too loud, discordant, unruly, and clashed with everything. Nothing like what I wanted in my life, nothing I wanted to be.

When I first moved away from home, everything I owned was black. Jet back. As black as I could get. Smooth, cool, sleek, discrete, calm, unassuming. Flexible, cohesive, agreeable black. Fashionable black.

I had a really, really bad time. Unrelated to the decor. It was my first year out of a toxic place I'd grown used to my whole life, my first year acknowledging a mental illness I'd believed to be normal, my first year fending for myself with very little money or sleep or companionship.

I'd grown up on instant white rice and unseasoned ground beef. One day I realized that everything I'd been raised on tasted like cardboard. While out on an assignment, I passed a tent with a woman selling spices, and bought myself some turmeric. I went home and tried making curry with it. It was so yellow.

Another time, my professor took us out to a modern art gallery. I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but when we got there, the whole building had been painted bright sunshine yellow.

The artist's theme was "happiness".

What it is. How we make it. How to share it.

All bright, lovely yellow.

The house I grew up in was beige. The walls were white. The appliances were post 9/11 stainless steel. My job was to be quiet, compliant, presentable and agreeable.

Black goes with everything. Black is neutral. Black is quiet, reserved, elegant and mysterious.

Yellow is warm. Yellow does what it wants. Yellow tastes sweet and spicy and hot and cool, like a summer breeze, like sunflower petals, powdery like dust on a long dirt road and soothing like well-worn linen.

I still like the look of black. I like the look of most colors. But I like the way that Yellow makes me feel.

Do you understand?

I don't! I only really started dabbling in graphic design with this and the main inspirations were half prism and choco graphix. more art inspiration is always appreciated though so I'll definitely check out their work :D

finished it a while ago but curtis moved so it took a lil bit to get everything sorted out. Check out the video on it here :3

Hi chat I've been kinda cooking with a cool shader that scatters textures in a way where they're both seamless and have no visible repetition :3c

one cool feature is this height-based blending:

Left: regular lerp Right: custom height blending

I ran into some interesting challenges actually and realized that most methods for blending between two heightmaps actually have some drawbacks for different scenarios so I might do a whole blog post on how to properly blend two heightmaps together if that's something people are interested in

I also think it's neat to compare these two blending modes side by side since the heightmap one keeps the actual heightmap a lot more crisp and doesn't necessarily blur/fade stuff in ways that can look a bit bad depending on your heightmap

I UNIRONICALLY DO THIS WHEN I'M BORED

except instead of street lamps is lighting engine optimization doodles but like I'm still technically drawing lights so this is 100% moth behavior

moth girl giggling and blushing kicking her feet in the air writing in a pretty pink journal with a cute glittery pen and when you look at the page its just a bunch of drawings of streetlamps

I mostly use bandcamp now but I can't really shuffle a big library so I'll just open Spotify again pffft

it's a little outdated and omits more of the transfem hyperpoppy stuff I've been listening to as of late like Laura Les, Patricia Taxxon, femtanyl, etc. but these are all certainly bangers

as for the tags: @zalianth15 @hiwaporwave @skookathing

Music poll!

I got tagged by @miss-fiery 😄 thanks for the tag! (I guess I just preferred to do a new post haha)

Put your music library on shuffle, then list the first five songs that come up in a poll to let people vote for which one they like the most!

(mine is a little weird and bland at the same time LOL)

Ok, no pressure, but I'm tagging @charmwasjess @calcedon79 @count-doodoo @thebookishwitch and @man-i-dunno
