Streaming is over!
And has been for a bit- tumblr just wouldn’t let me post.
Thanks for joining me! I’ll probably do it again, now that the kinks have largely been ironed out. :)
Sorry guys, internet is complete shit
Still trying to reconnect

Now streaming!
Join meeeeeeee
I’ll be throwing pottery, probably unsuccessfully, but there should be good times. Hopefully my headset works with Livestream, so I’ll be able to chat with you guys. I’m also hoping my internet connection is adequate; I guess we’ll see. So here we go!

SECOND CHANGE OF PLANS
Everyon left the studio! So my computer is wrapped in saran wrap, I’m installing Procaster, and about to get this party going!
So please, come watch me fail at throwing large pottery :D
Change of plans
Stream may not happen tonight. There are other people in the studio for once, and how awkward would THAT be

Email conversation I had today with my professor
»> me 1/30/2012 11:56 PM »> I was thinking about this while trying to come up with questions for the Accumulating Small Change article. I don’t know if there’s a good answer to my question(s), but on the chance that I’m just not understanding the concept completely, I thought I would ask. So, natural selection is the mechanism of evolution. Genes that are...

I know you read a lot of sob stories on DA ‘my cat has a tumour’ and so on and so forth, but there’s some out there that are actually pretty serious cases.
Imagine breaking your ankle. And your knee. And needing brain surgery. And your workplace not giving you a less physical job. Nasty, right? Now add on to that, that you’re about to loose your house....

I'm gonna go get food, shower, finish up homework...
There’s a “Stream” button on my tumblr by the Ask and Submit; it leads to a page with both livestream video and chatbox if you’d rather see antigravity cats than Livestream’s site. I’ll let you know when I’m on the air!

I just realized that Alan Moore made extensive reference of Dawkins’ work in evolutionary biology in Watchmen, including references to The Blind Watchmaker, which was published in the same year.
I guess I’m just pleased/impressed that a comic book writer was up to date with science out of his own volition. I don’t like it when people assume artists (of all kinds) are stupid or...

A breakdown of this paper:
4 pages explaining the whole concept
6 pages talking about monkeys typing Shakespeare
12 pages about a simple computer program Dawkins wrote to generate shapes out of branching lines, in which he continually marveled at the shapes he created and congratulated himself on his program
2 pages about evolution seen in other programs, and an experiment he wants to try where insects bump into a...

don’t you just love surprisingly time-consuming homework
and it’s a long-winded argument for natural selection, too, written by a very condescending man (from what papers of his I’ve read)

This is the kind of dog I want to own one day. Not necessarily a Staffy, but a largish dog that is friendly and adorable like this guy.
And face wrinkles are always a bonus.

SHIT. DANG. I can’t imagine what you’d sell this for, if you did. As someone who might not even have it in me to dedicate myself to a project this intricate, I’d be pissed to part with it for less than… A LOT.
I don;t know what I’d sell it for, either. If someone inquired about it right this second,...

I can’t have a conversation with anyone about labor and delivery without getting pissed off. I am an advocate of natural childbirth, not C-section. Never C-section. That’s a coward’s option and it’s not natural, sure, it saves lives and I can agree with it when the child or mother is in danger but to have a C-section just to fucking have it, that’s so disgraceful to your...

What a day.
I helped out with an all-girls program at my university today, encouraging them to pursue any career they want, even if it isn’t stereotypically girly. My main job was to act as guide around campus and assistant during activities. Let me just say that sixth graders and box cutters are a bad combo.
Because I volunteered, I got a free shirt. Also, found a free binder in the business building,...

Reply to fallout/elderscrolls: Doesn’t make any sense to me how you can like one and not the other. They put alot of fallout elements into skyrim, and its better for it!

guys
you can like Fallout and the Elder Scrolls
Enjoying Skyrim shouldn’t make you like Fallout less. Enjoying Fallout shouldn’t make you like Skyrim less. It’s okay to prefer one over the other, of course, and you don’t have to like both or either of them.
but seriously, claiming you hate a game made by the same company just because it also happens to be a sandbox RPG?...

So my advisor/professor is an antiques guy
In addition to being a professor, of course. He does most of the art restoration business at my university, and is also curator of our art museum and does appraisal work in his free time. I’m currently enrolled in a commercial illustration course with him.
First assignment: pick an object randomly from a bag he brought to class, write a page describing it as if to a blind person, and over...
