Good lunchtime *morning* - my world's at a bit of a standstill, methinks I'll do laundry, scrub myself off & either read or start some homework I just put together the computer for.

I'm the very textbook definition of an indisposed programmer today. I'm not really going to let myself stop studying but internet negativity pushed me close.

Boo asleep on the chair. :heart:

I've drawn half of my book cover, but the letters were smushed. :(

Internet brings out the worst in some people.

^Is it the illusion of anonymity that partially causes it? Or that people want to take out their frustration or anger on anyone? Or both?

Maybe both.
They're anonymous so that makes them not responsible.
People say things they would never say to anyone irl.
They get a kick out of that.
And some people take everything way too serious, or think there's some kind of conspiracy, or veiled meaning in everything.
Maybe the internet should be nuked.

Smoke detectors were made compulsary by the government because they're all bugged and if the government hears something they don't like, they can release the radiation remotely, which gives people cancer.

Give me a break.

hi cathylynn, i'm not sure if you thought i am dcj?

anyway im awkward. sorry i didn't reply quickly because i was making a third accound, because that mod banned my second account, and she will ban this one too.

you definitely can pm me. if i didn't reply, know it's because im banned.

if they ban me this time, i will not make another account im sick of all that tbh. + i need to study a lot this year 2017/2018. (perhaps everything happens for a reason, and this is the reason: " to focus more on my studying" =)

i made this account only to reply to you.

Can't find the motivation to start on work. :? Not sure what to do? Once started, it's easy.

There is this piece of advice my dad gave me once. He goes on a jog in the ungodly hours of every morning and he does it with a group of friends. He says it's because if he did it alone it would be easier to just stay in bed and skip a day, but if he has to report to someone then he says it makes it easier for him to stick to his schedule.

This kind of thing is why study groups exist, perhaps we could even start a small one ourselves since I could definitely be doing better with studying for my IT class. Might be worth a shot I suppose.

That's a good advice.

I need the same thing to get anything done. If I try to work on my projects at home by my self I quickly get distracted by internet and other stuff. But if someone sees me coming in everyday at work it's much easier to get things done and stick to a schedule. That's why I have been looking for public workshops I can spend my days working on all my awesome projects.

And related to this I today went to a maker space in the city with two Aspie friends of mine. We got a tour of the workshop and it was amazing!! ! They had all kinds of cool machines and tools there. Lots of space and people showed us all kinds of awesome projects they where working on. It was very inspiring. Some people even had made this into their work space making a living out if it. They even had a pro game designer there working in VR! He's made some of the art for the game Firewatch! Isn't that super cool! :D This place is perfect for me! I have already begun making plans for a special kind of table for my apartment together with one of my friends, she is probably more enthusiastic about that table than me :P proposing all kinds of cool things I could do with it. The place is open 24/7 for members and I can pay extra to get my own storage space or even an office if I'm serious about the stuff I make. I'm very happy :D

My book cover has twin angel-ish beings with wings and long hair on the front. The background will probably be a deep blue, and the title letters will be golden.

^ why don't you do something like making an account and not announcing that you're awkward facepalm?

Unbanning requests didn't work for Quill or dcj.
