They never stopped being cool for me! I just love watching the oil rise and fall, it’s very soothing 😀

I fancy a Mathmos lava lamp, either green oil with blue water, or something a bit warmer with violet or purple…

As usual my mum doesn’t know what she wants and neither does my dad (although my mum did suggest getting him some Baileys). My boyfriend hasn’t decided on anything yet, so it looks like I’m going to have to do some last minute shopping

Wow! What an amazing building, it looks like a temple or church

I thought it was modern architecture at first glance, but the fact that it used to be a postal office, and it’s over a century old…

They certainly don’t make 'em like they used to

This is something I’ve discovered about myself lately and I’m now trying to tackle, and hopefully start to dismantle.

I did a fuck up the other day and may have unintentionally offended someone (a combination of mental and sensory overload led to a louder than expected verbal outburst of frustration)

I’ve put out an apology and have asked for an accommodation to help with the sensory aspect, but I’m still churning inside and over thinking because of my shitty social and communication ‘skills’

Thanks for your comment, it sums things up ‘perfectly’ 🤣

Thanks for the info, I probably need to do a post explaining all the different types of printmaking… and/or do a quick description like yours when I post something a bit ‘different’ 👍

No probs 👍

Yes that could be it! I just remember it being amazing and futuristic pressing the buttons and zipping through hyperspace

I can also remember being very disappointed that the Atari packaging art never reflected the game graphics lol (I was young)

Me and my brother got one of these as a joint Xmas present, it came with a free game- Combat!

I loved playing Space Invaders, Frogger, Empire Strikes Back, there was also a space game where you had to input coordinates into a gadget to then hyperspace jump and fight other space ships, can’t remember what it was called but it was great!

It’s still at my parents house in the original box…

It’s a smörgåsbord of critters…

His brain is like an elephant’s, while his stomach is like a horse’s. The skeleton, however, is akin to a rhinoceros’s. The hind feet are entirely different from these animals, more like a tapir’s. Peeking into the mouth of a hyrax, you may recognize similar upper incisors from rodents’ teeth, upper cheek teeth from rhinos, and lower cheek teeth like a hippo’s. They even have two teeth in their upper jaw that resemble elephant tusks. The overall anatomy of a hyrax, however, is like that of elephants or horses. source

I think they’re silently judging me for wearing their piss as a perfume

Well it is in Port Talbot, which is not a huge distance from Cardiff…maybe there’s a David Tennant nearby for someone to take home?

Like WoW type of pieces? A friend of mine used to collect and paint up pieces for table campaigns (not sure of the right terminology) they looked really good

You can read up on them, and see some nice photos here on mander… they’re really interesting creatures!

I love Reedy’s work too, he has an incredibly large selection of film/comic/manga prints to explore. I could just post his work everyday and not get bored of it… and thank you for the feedback 👍

…I hope I am not coming across here as being too extreme…

Not at all, you’ve basically summed up how I feel, plus added something I hadn’t considered which is what would happen if I was banned from .ml for a post or comment. I’ve got a few days holiday to have a think about it all and also ask the community… I don’t want to make top down ‘executive decisions’ without consultation

Cheers 👍

Get yourself a camera and have some fun!

Even if you do nothing with your photos, being out and about and thinking visually, looking for ideas, is all part of it and you can find different things in your environment… weird little nooks and crannies, bugs, interesting texture, it’s all there to be discovered

In the mean time, you can still get some quality photos with a phone camera, plus its usually always accessible, and can also be a ‘visual diary’ of places and photos you want to take with a better piece of kit

Go out there, and enjoy yourself 😀

Nice photo! 👍

Classic!

Yep, it’s something that has occurred to me, I’ve got an idea of which instance and all that, but I’d probably need to speak with the admins. I don’t know whether communities can migrate over posts/comments etc and part of me is reluctant to leave all that behind… BUT, I’ve done it once from scratch, so it’s not impossible

I have mostly refrained from posting political art, even though I do really like a good caricature (I grew up on Spitting Image, and other British satire progs), and also political art is, well… art

But, people come to see the nice pictures and chill out for a bit, which is fair, and it’s good to have that as a community
