General Discussion Thread

[Yuuago]

Hey, all (especially Curry, Red Cloud, Haiz, Yuuago, etc....)

In late August there was a discussion on this thread of Tumblr and why/how to do it.  Started around here:  https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=5.msg61701#msg61701

Viola and I meant to move this discussion to a more specific thread where it'd be easy to find again... and then in the hustle and bustle of moving/new school year, we didn't.  I'd still like to extract and preserve that discussion.  Where would you like it?

1) In the Other Social Medias thread?  (Despite that thread's first post, we either don't have a thread dedicated to Tumblrs, or I'm overlooking it.)
2) In a Tumblr-specific thread, if we have one?
3) If not, create a new Tumblr-specific thread? 
4) Something else?

The "other social medias" thread seems mostly to be a "list your contacts" kind of thing, whereas the discussion was more centred around "how to use it". So, maybe a separate thread would be good. Though it could go either way really.

Okay, today I drew more than I have drawn in a long long time. But I drew.

I drew a couple of OCs.

I copied (without tracing though) art of a couple of webcomic characters and tried to break them into basic shapes so I could understand them better.

I traced and broke down into shapes a greek statue.

I made a silly thumbnail of a drawing I am planning to make, of the crew climbing a giant cake.

Today was a good day.

Sounds like it was!

*applauds your good drawing day*

Today I....did a bunch of gesture drawings that quickly devolved into scribbles? I was planning to do more but sadly most of it remained plans.

A more or less tame bear called Juuso is showing talent as a painter. http://www.kaleva.fi/uutiset/galleriat/juuso-karhun-tekemaa-taidetta-kuusamosta/9280/2694174/

Bears, everywhere. A bear on the walkway delayed my getting to work for half an hour today. Argh, I like bears, but I don't like it when they're... near my workplace. (Just middle-of-nowhere things....)

Happy equinox, everyone!

Happy equinox to you too! What a rascal of a bear, stopping people from going to work... that's rude.

I know, eh? Needs to learn some manners. Bears these days, tsk tsk tsk. ;p Could at least've done me the favour of hanging around long enough that I would've been able to head back home.

You could eat it? The meat is stringy and oily, but decent.

[Laufey]

This might be just me but that's a bit harsh for a lecture on proper manners...

Not half bad idea, actually.

Yeah, it's just you. Y'know what they say - eat the rude, and so on. ;p

Do you think the bear will be giving any attitude after that?

Yeah, it's just you. Y'know what they say - eat the rude, and so on. ;p

People say that? ... Canadians are pretty intense, but in a good way.

[viola]

Yeah, it's just you. Y'know what they say - eat the rude, and so on. ;p

*Has flashbacks of Grýla....*

Hey you know you're not that far off.

[Laufey]

Yeah, it's just you. Y'know what they say - eat the rude, and so on. ;p

Looks like I've been outvoted. Oh well, such is democracy - my apologies for the bear, I tried I did.

*Has flashbacks of Grýla....*

Hey you know you're not that far off.

To be fair though you don't have to be rude for Grýla to eat you, she'll make a dinner out of anyone she can catch, good and bad alike. Children are just her favourite.

[Auleliel]

Yeah, it's just you. Y'know what they say - eat the rude, and so on. ;p

...No wonder Canadians are so polite...

Shoot. Yuu, you gave away our secret. Now they're on to us.
