The Art of Computer Designing
- a book by Osamu Sato published in 1993 -
The computer is a magic box. Many graphic images are hidden inside it. […] This is an everyday guide to computer illustrating, a
collection of design ideas and a compendium of Mr. Sato’s own computer
art works. […] Just looking at the myriad
manifestations of form is a joy, but for those who will use it to begin
creating their own shapes this book offers far, far greater pleasure.
a little personal response / tribute to "here's the life i've always longed for" by Anna Haifisch. the original means so much to me, and even though it's hard, I feel like every day i'm making more steps toward finally being on the other side of that fence <:)
having a child has taught me that every toddler is completely justified in their frustrations and tantrums because learning how to do something you have literally never encountered or heard of before is insane. and being expected to be completely calm in the face of this constant barrage of overwhelming information is doubly insane.
i got charlie a sticker activity book and it occurred to me i have to TEACH someone how to unpeel stickers. it's SKILL that requires DEXTERITY and FINE MOTOR ABILITY. i thought it was obvious that you have to curl the page a little bit to create a break in the cut so the sticker comes up.
obviously a fucking BABY wouldn't know that because they have no background experience to inform their thought process. OBVIOUSLY. and OBVIOUSLY the LITERAL BABY wouldn't get it right the first few times. it would OBVIOUSLY take practice. lots of it.
i hate this feeling. it's so obvious. why are children treated so badly when they're learning everything for the first fucking time. why do people treat children so horribly and expect so much. they're brand new. why didn't i get the same grace i give to my child? why did no one have patience for me? why, when it's this easy?
it's so easy. it's so fucking easy.
I’m actually so over social media and how it melts people’s brains and destroys nuance and is controlled and owned by wealthy, corrupt men and is a vehicle for advertising and misinformation, but I also don’t want to be dumping on people in my personal life all the time soooo
I bought a journal for the first time since like 2001. and you know what? I feel good about that decision
being so fr when I say that transmisogyny has put feminism back like 50 years
seeing everyone just mindlessly sign up for threads despite all the clear warning signs feels like I’m living in Sailor Moon or a magical girl anime episode where the Monster of the Day just set up shop over night and their product is literally draining your lifeforce for the Dark Kingdom but people keep going there
