    Before I start a toy thread (because I feel like that would be a bit of work on my part, either that or I'm procrastinating), I'll just post some stuff here.

    I got a LEGO Friends set recently, a Pop Star one, and the girl in the set reminded me of Barbie's character Kira from Barbie: the Princess & the Popstar, which is one of my favorite Barbie movies. That stayed on my mind for quite a while, even as I put the set aside a week or so ago since I don't really like cluttering up my space.

    So yesterday I picked it up (along with some other LEGO Friends sets I have) and made a Stop-Motion Music Video set to Kira's song Here I Am from the movie. It's not very long, or good, but I made it.

    I used normal LEGO minifigures because I like them better (and they have wrist-joints and separate legs). The hairpieces are from LEGO Friends figures though.

    I've made a bit of stop-motion stuff, mostly music videos because they're way easier for me to envision since I tend to watch a lot of them. Another thing involved my Ever After High dolls and my first attempt at making clothes using a children's pattern book. That was set to a song from an episode of the TV show The Fosters in which they performed their own musical interpretation of Romeo and Juliet. So of course I also made a Romeo and Juliet themed video.

    I'm actually considering breaking out my very old bucket of Legos because I cu4rently have an unsatisfied craving for an architecture design simulator.

    That's why you should have gotten into 3D modeling back when I was hoping some of you would.
  • DYREDYRE
    I actually want to get into 3D modeling but every time I think about it it also happens that I have a ton of school stuff to do. I do keep on downloading every new release of Blender and occasionally screw around with it for a a few minutes/hours but then... I haven't actually done anything significant yet.
  • StormtroperStormtroper
    Hell yeah! I succeeded in getting somebody else into it! (Did I?)

    Anyhows, yeah, it's pretty time-consuming. Back when I was really into it I'd zone out and lose track of time, spending hours without realizing. The nice thing is that getting anything done is easy and quick, the hard/time-consuming part is making it look good.

    I haven't done much 3D lately besides scripting, tho, so I think I might be getting rusty.

    3D modelling looks hard. This is based on me failing to figure out Blender when I was like... 12 maybe? I had an IRL friend (yes even I have those) who was pretty good at it. I'm still kinda-sorta in touch with him and last time I saw him he said he was still working on stuff so I guess if I ever really wanted to try I'd have immediate-ish help for when I got stuck.

    But like obviously I'm trying to learn to sew right now (sort of, too lazy) and also maybe get better at this stop-motion thing.

    Lately zoning out has been hard for me, since when I'm working on whatever I'll put music on and I'm very conscious of when a song ends and another one starts* because I have to act like a lone WOTA* in my room whenever a new one starts.

    *not an episode Solo joke I swear

    Somebody who I had a crush on's room mate was into making bad Blender porn. I thought it was blender furry porn, but he said it wasn't. Their faces just looked like snouts for "reasons"

    ^^ Yah, it's pretty hard. The good thing is that there are tutorials for everything.

    ^ I thought I knew who you were talking about but then a quick Google search made me remember that this is the internet and there are Blender porn artists everywhere.

    Edit: Oh yeah, and apparently someone(s) tried to break into our home last night.

    ^ They needed their fix and the computer they had their own copy of Blender installed on had died.

    Tried, as in you were home, or tried as in you found evidence of a failed breakin?
  • StormtroperStormtroper
    I found evidence of a failed break in. One of the (out of service) electric fence's wires is broke and there's a part with a bunch of ripped plant parts in one place. It's the neighbor's plant but they crawl into our side, and apparently somebody tried to use them to climb the (small) wall between us, though I can't tell if they broke in on our side and then tried to climb to the other or vice-versa. Anyways neither home got actually broken into, it seems.

    Ugh, serotonin levels are dropping. Feeling mean. Better go watch something nice and cherry and uplifting like Avatar.

    Which of the Avatars is the uplifting one? Cameron's was my first thought, then I remembered the Airbender one. (Shyalaman's doesn't count, I assume.)
  • Naas_HumanNaas_Human
    People don't seem to even remember Cameron's Avatar outside of news about his vague sequel plans.

    I'd guess so, but I think I saw it mentioned somewhere recently, so it came to my mind. Not sure where. TVT? Anyways, I probably wouldn't bother either otherwise.

    GLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENN!!!

    Do you know where can I read about vector field interpolation? (Like in wind velocities or something.)

    Edit: Come to think of it, I think I know where to find some stuff about it.

    Comments are mostly about Trump, looks like. Expected more Russian trolls.

    There is love everywhere, I already know
    Lately I've been really into the fashion brands Cremieux and Nautica, which is not helping my ongoing fight against blue clothing.

    Also Nautica did a collaboration with a rapper called Lil' Yatchy and there is no way this collaboration happened because the guy even knew they existed before they found out there was a rapper called Lil' Yatchy.

    Why do you fight against blue clothing? Is this a part of a campaign against the use of color blue in textile industry?
  • fourteenwingsfourteenwings
    There is love everywhere, I already know
    A few years ago I just noticed that I had way more blue things than other things, not because I liked blue things but because men's clothing just tends to be blue (even though I've made it a point not to wear jeans starting a few years back).

    Aside from that, I try to avoid dark colors or heavier fabrics that read cool/hipster because I always feel like that reads "I'm really cool and hip and stuff but also my choices are safely in the cynic zone where you can't criticize me."

    This is clearly in defiance with my "I want to blend in so nobody notices I have Irregular Taste"-ness but I'd rather that than conform*.

    That's actually an interesting story to read.
