I've introduced my partner to Anne Rice's 'Interview with a Vampire' TV show. They had never seen any content of the book series or the original movies. We just finished it .... The whole time he wanted to know what happened to Claudia, he was INVESTED, and his reaction of Armand's betrayal was exquisite from the perspective of a life long fan, but in the tender reunion scene between Lestat and Louis during the hurricane he told me very confidently that "those two shouldn't get back together".

The point of this post is that a media rendition of an original work does not need to be exact for the resulting product to move an audience. Write that fanfiction, draw that art, and/or sing that parody!

I figured out you can make a Rubik's cube in Create. The trick is to use radial chassis and not glue.

Sorry about the awful camera work. You can't really get a good view of this thing while using it and the 20 trains behind it aren't helping my framerate.

Before you ask, no. I can't solve it without a pickaxe.

January 1st, 2024 - Log/100 Days of Productivity

Damn, I have not been on tumblr in a long time. But the urge to jump back on here has been growing stronger recently. So here I am, blogging once more.

I remember doing regular 100 Days of Productivity Challenges on here. I think I should pick that back up. I've been in a slump for a while and reconnecting with a community could help.

So here's my first log for Januar 1st 2024.

Not much has happened today. I am still feeling a little hungover and foggy from New Years Eve. I did not celebrate. I am not big on that holiday in particularly. I remember when I was younger I used to really enjoy it but now it seems so unnecessary. Just a day before a day and a day.

I honestly do not like how people celebrate here either. Fireworks are widely available and are being bought up by idiots to then be as noisy as possible. To make the air unbreathable. Pregnant with the pungent smell of smoke and sulfur. As if they were trying too hard to make themselves noticeable. This one day they think, is their day. The one were they let lose ...

Unless... That is obviously not true. People look for any way and any excuse to "let lose". To not feel responsible for their actions.

And honestly I can see why. Sometimes I wish I were the kind of person who could just let go and see where that leads me.

I can't say that i have set any New Year's resolutions ... Honestly, I don't believe in them. I'd like to think that you can improve your life any day. But I don't judge those who do. You do you. I guess I want to write more. Take care of myself more. Do things I love more. Be more active. But those are barely New Years resolutions. Just things I have not done in a long time.

So what did I actually do today? Not a lot. I cleaned a bit, unpacked my suitcase. Took a shower way to late in the day. I tried to get up early but failed. That bothers me. It seemed a lot easier a longer time ago. I tried to sleep early, too, yet the fireworks kept me up. I guess I can add better sleep to the list of Non New Years resolutions.

I edited some videos for work and I crocheted my first square for my temperature blanket. I made a post where I shared that. And I think I'll share a more general post on what that is and what I'll do with mine.

But that's pretty much it. Still a lot of drowsy procrastination. But I guess, we all start somewhere.

Embracing the Blank Page: A New Writer's Journey

Welcome to all of you who like me are on this beautiful journey of the world of words. I am thrilled to embark on this literary voyage with you as I introduce myself as a new writer diving headfirst into the boundless sea of storytelling.

My name is Astrid, and I have always been captivated by the power of all those words that can transport us to distant realms, evoke emotions we never knew we had, and connect us across time and space. For years, I've been a silent observer of the magic woven by authors, poets, and playwrights, but now, it's my turn to step onto the stage and add my voice to the chorus of storytellers.

Like many of you, I've harbored dreams of penning my own tales since I was old enough to hold a pencil. Yet, life's twists and turns often led me down different paths, and the dream of becoming a writer remained tucked away in the recesses of my mind. But recently, something shifted within me—a stirring, a yearning, an insatiable hunger to give life to the stories that have always been whispering in the shadows of my imagination.

So here I am, embracing the blank page with equal parts trepidation and excitement, ready to embark on this exhilarating journey of self-discovery and creative exploration. I may be a newcomer to the world of writing, but I bring with me a heart brimming with passion, a mind teeming with ideas, and a soul eager to pour itself onto the canvas of the written word.

In this humble corner of the internet, I invite you to join me as I navigate the twists and turns of the writer's path. Together, we'll celebrate the triumphs and navigate the trials, sharing in the joy of creation and the camaraderie of fellow wordsmiths.

Here, you'll find musings on my writing process, reflections on the craft of storytelling, and glimpses into the worlds I'm weaving within the pages of my works-in-progress. It's a journey of vulnerability and courage, of doubt and determination, but above all, it's a journey fueled by the boundless power of imagination and the unyielding belief in the magic of storytelling.

So, dear reader, thank you for joining me on this adventure. Whether you're a seasoned writer, an aspiring author, or simply a lover of stories, I'm honored to have you by my side as I take my first steps into the enchanted forest of writing. Together, let's embark on this grand odyssey, pen in hand, heart aflame, and spirits soaring on the wings of imagination.

Until next time, may your ink flow freely and your imagination knows no bounds.

With gratitude and excitement,

Astrid

Blaze

will say this time and time again, but beauty is NOT superficial.

it's just an intimation towards the innate beauty/harmony underlying our physical reality.

beauty as compliance to social order is restrictive. but it can also be a purely personal thing. never let someone make you feel degraded for actively following that. everything that we see is purely built for function...

corporate buildings, cars, "minimalism", planes, neighborhoods, and all white kitchens. even the production in our mainstream music.

how did we come to a point where we've learned to turn beauty into such a sin that it can only come into a contained, marketable package?

why is it denied to us as a way of life?

...or as something we have to actively chase and thirst over to even get a glimpse of?

I want you to be mine, please write our moments in my everyday life. In this line I could say you ain't just my sunshine but as well the moonlight that guides my starship adventure. With my eyes I've just captured the bright of your soul crossing my spirit in the speed of light from a heart not that cold.
