I did it anyway but I feel kind of like a faker signing onto the strike Germany campaign because like, the last time I got invited to do an art thing in Berlin was probably 2019?? I'm a washed up has been baby, is it solidarity or just irrelevance

The cascade of Means Girls promotion on my IG feed is only confirming my beliefs that Renee Rapp has the range to play both the Tridentarius twins from The Locked Tomb books

testing out a pipeline of STRM data to STL to plotter.vision's SVG renderer, gel pens can be a little hit or miss but overall promising I think?
