The amount of people who don't know paprika, bell peppers, jalapeños, and habeñeros (plus a gorillion other varieties) are all the same plant is....unnerving.
Not trying to be rude, but:
PSA for anyone who is white and not hungarian (likely this cohort is mainly murican lol): paprika has flavor. Just cause you bought months old dried bullshit from your local kroger don't mean it ain't tasty. It can be spicy. It can be sweet. It can be smokey, red, yellow, or orange. It can be all the things that pepper plants are known for. Just don't buy "big top corpo dried nonsense". That's why you think it has no flavor.
Sincerely,
Someone who loves paprika too much

Fellow digital artists, this is your reminder to do arm, neck, and back stretches.
Drink some water too.

"Not everyone has enough time to learn how to draw/paint/make music" is not a valid argument.
"Not everyone has the talent" is not a valid argument.
(This is an example, I am laughably too poor to actually do this, but)
I am not an architect. I don't wanna spend the time to learn how to build a house. I want to live in a house.
Should I:
A) Hire an architect and a contractor who genuinely have the skill and time to build me a house
or
B) Use an "ai" to draft a blueprint and then ask a bunch of under-paid interns to build me a house
"Lone-wolfing" everything is the opposite of society and civilization. Stop making shitty arguments for slop generators. Wanting to listen to good music isn't the same as believing you can make good music with a slop generator.
Talent is a lie. Nobody has innate talent. That's peak cope. All skills take time and effort. Don't wanna do the time and effort? Then you don't actually wanna make the thing. You just wanna pretend and I find that offensive.
I like the boring tedium of pixel art. I don't like the boring tedium of traditional painting. Guess which one I do for a living.

War Pigs is literally just an acid rock anti-war hippie anthem. It's almost like fundies only care about surface level aesthetics rather than the deeper nature of "love and peace" their supposed messiah preached.

Is it British standard to not capitalize every letter in an acronym? Cause like, every article from across the pond only capitalizes the first letter of a certain red hat wearing political group and a particular agency in recent focus. This isn't a political post, just a question about writing standards in the UK.
They ain't words. They're short hand for several words. Seems weird to my murican-english brain goo

It's done! Or rather, I'm done adding to it lol
Here's my 28 page guide to beginning digital photography! :D
Normally I like releasing stuff like this for free, but I've spent too many hours the last few months working on this. So there's a 28 page paid version ($10+) and a 5 page free version.

Our electric waffle iron got extra messy, so my husband decided to pop it open to give it a thorough clean. Turns out it was designed to break the circuit board if you tried to pop the heating elements out to give them a proper clean.
This means 2 things:
1. The designers intended it to never be service repaired. Ever.
2. They wanted you to eat waffles exposed to old moldy bits that couldn't be properly cleaned out without breaking the damn thing.
So now we have a cast iron waffle maker that sits on the stove to heat up. It's from 1963 and doesn't require it's own power outlet, doesn't have a circuit board, and we can actually make sure it's clean.
If I can't repair it, it's worthless junk. If I can't clean it, it's worthless junk. Capitalism is worthless junk.

Klingon names are just onomatopoeias for the sounds of stuff being knocked off of tables by cats and I refuse to believe otherwise.

A group of Inky Caps I found last year.
Definitely my favorite fungus (I even have a tattoo of one lol)
In this state they're edible (tho I hate the taste and texture of mushrooms, but I've heard they're pretty tasty for those who do eat mushrooms) and when they get melty you can collect the ink and use it to write with (some monks in Ye Olde Times™️ used them if they couldn't get access to certain inks).
