Random fact about yourself

@Aru-wu  
Edible things that don’t kill you and aren’t gross is food.

@Dex Stewart  
Play-doh is edible and won’t kill you and it’s not gross, but it’s not food.
 
Celery is edible and won’t kill you and it is food, but it is extremely gross.

@UrbanMysticDee  
I don’t like how Play-Doh smells.

I jerked off so much that people thought I’m gay, I tried to find a girlfriend and women judged me for having schizophrenia.
 
Now my nuts hang when I’m mad and I hate the world.

@Dex Stewart  
that hightly considers what you deem gross or not, some people literally consider bugs food.
 
@UrbanMysticDee  
what? celery gross? how… with some ranch its good, i espacially enjoy the crunch of it, celery with some carrots and S tier snack up there with corn chips and garlic avocado

dayum that… is a power sentence…

I’ve just made a list of all the stuff I remember building (finished or not, but mostly finished). Not counting the pokemon I’ve made (because they’re in a box under another box and I don’t feel like fishing them out and counting them all) I’ve made 108 unique things (some of which I made multiples of), including:
 
27 People  
19 Buildings/Places  
8 Miscellaneous  
7 Tanks/Cars  
7 Planes  
16 Bombs  
11 Rockets/Space Paraphernalia  
9 Monsters/Animals  
4 Ships
 
By far the tanks have the most unfinished projects because making lots of wheels that move is a pain in the ass. 12 projects are unfinished, 4 of which I am still working on and hope to finish soon. 43 projects have been dismantled, 5 are lost. Counting the 4 projects which were started this year and will be completed, I have about 30 things I want to build plus half a dozen or so visionary projects that probably will never get started. Since I’ve been completing a model roughly every other week for the past couple months it should take about 60 weeks to complete everything on my list, within reason (some things are hugely complex and may never even get started).

I just recorded 40 minutes of part 1 of my video series on Ukraine. If I’m lucky I can edit it down to below 30 minutes, but it will still be my longest video.

@UrbanMysticDee  
Neat, I would probably be interested to watch that. Even if I could have some very significant disagreements on it.

Uploaded the Ukraine video (37 minutes) and a video about Uri Geller (29 minutes). They are processing.
 
Ponybooru makes a cameo appearance in the Ukraine video. I open a new tab and it shows the sites I visit most frequently. I should have filled it with nothing but porn sites as a joke.
 
10 hours, shit, I put in a full day’s work plus overtime on this one.

@UrbanMysticDee  
We do have porn. All the best pony porn!

@Dex Stewart  
You’re right, Twitter has porn too, but no one is going to think TV Tropes or weather.com is porn. I remember when nasa.com was a porn site before NASA bought it and merged it with nasa.gov.
 

 
Moron the video, that’s something I tend to do. I put all my effort into working on something for a full day, or a few full days in a row, then I’ll take the next two weeks off and do nothing. That’s why I’ll spend three nights building something and then take 10 days or so off (also because I have to work in front of the computer hunched over and it hurts my back if I do it every day).
 
I didn’t eat anything today except candy, Rockstar, and a piece of cake. I’m tired.
 
That’s how I tend to write too. I’ll write for 15 minutes and then take a 30 minute break and write for another 15 minutes and repeat the cycle for 16 hours straight.
 
 
That’s another thing about me. A lot of people think I’m shy. I’m not, I just find most people insufferably boring. I’d rather get a root canal than talk to most people. I can fake it but most times I choose not to, unless I’m getting paid. I’ve had several hour long phone calls that made me want to kill the person on the other end.
 
Give me something I find interesting and I’ll talk about it for hours in front of a hundred people, most people just lead utterly boring lives and I see no point torturing myself listening to them drone on about nothing.
 
That’s another thing, I’ve found out that people like me better when they think I’m an idiot. If I act like an idiot they’ll take pity on me and I can get away with being lazy.
 
 
Another another fact. In the video there’s a shot of twitter and all the trending is listed as the Philippines. I did that on purpose. You can pick which country you want to see trending. I did it because the US trending is always shite but it works well here too since it will trick people into thinking that’s where I live. Nice place.

@UrbanMysticDee  
The last part reminded me of this bit from The Mentally Advanced Series.
 
Twilight: If I could start all over, I would just play dumb from start to finish.  
Spike: You could’ve done that, but then you wouldn’t get to read much that way.  
Twilight: No, no, watch. It’d be something like this. “I love reading books to set a good example for kids. I may not understand all the big words, but I try my best to read the smartest-looking books.”  
Spike: Oh, I see. Very clever. I guess it takes a bit of wit to figure out how to play stupid correctly.

Recorded a shorter video on the Ukraine situation, hope to upload it later today, publish it tomorrow.

Of all the buildings I’ve made over the years only one survives. There are three more I wish I had saved: the chateau, the blue skyscraper, and the original office. I still have the office charter from that original office and I’ve put it in every subsequent office, all of which are gone now.
 
I’m starting phase 2 of the building project, moving from planes and rockets (which I will continue) and starting on buildings for these people to inhabit. Since only 4 buildings will have interiors I can just make the exteriors on the computer, print them out, and glue them to the right size rectangles.
 
The blue skyscraper, which will probably be the tallest building, will be the first. I got lucky. There will be 480 windows and I have 4 different windows and it just so happens that 4 divides evenly into 480 so I can rearrange them randomly to make the faces of the building. It’s not really all that blue. It has a bluish-purple tint with gold windows, but I think it should look nice. The original color came from the materials I had available at the time, it wasn’t anything integral to the identity of the building. I’m just giving it this color for continuity purposes.
 
I’m giving myself a corner office on the 13th floor so 2 of the windows will be unique.
 
The hard part will be the 2 story glass atrium. I’ve got some plastic clamshell boxes that I can cut up to use for that if they’re big enough. Other than that it should be easy.

I finally broke down and started a twitter

@Dex Stewart  
we revoke your ponybooru citizenship, please turn your based brony card
 
 
@UrbanMysticDee  
why do you care about Ukraine anyway? give it another week and its all over urban just hang in there.

@Dex Stewart  
You could have instead started a minds account or even a MeWe account, or better yet, somewhere on the Fediverse.

@Anonymous #E0CE  
I’ve never heard of those. The only reason I made a Twitter was because Twitter no longer allows me to view anything without an account. Since I started one, I might as well use it. I’m thinking of just posting Power Rangers stuff anyway.

@Dex Stewart  
what are you even viewing on your twitter? like the only people who go there are people who want lose there faith in humanity.

@Aru-wu  
I watch Razzles1337, who posts links to tokusatsu stuff on amazon, and PR_Media_Info who has lots of cool behind-the-scenes PR stuff. All this started because I was just trying to get a picture of a new Masters of the Universe pic. I went to twitter, usually I can download one image. This time, as soon as I get in they give me the log in or create account message.  
Don’t worry, I still hate the new Star Wars movies.

Finished all the pictures. Tomorrow I’ll print them out and then start assembling the skyscraper. It will be about 11 inches tall and will probably be the tallest building. The only building to give this one a run for its money will be the cathedral (and if I make a rocket launch tower it would have to be bigger to fit with the rocket).

@Dex Stewart  
hmph…. alright ill give you pass from cringe, better make it count.
 
 
@UrbanMysticDee  
i like how we got a complete book development saga on this forum thread, this will be looked back on for years to come

Starting on the beige tower and hory shet it took 4 tries and 3 hours to get the windows to line up.

I’m that crazy old man nobody listens to.
