I'm looking forward to being like, 75, and accumulating a pantry with all kinds of stuff in it. My grandma's pantry was like that and I remember when she found some 99% alcohol in there that she'd gotten in japan in the 70s and brought home before it was illegal to import 😭
tbh I'm super surprised I got one cause I haven't opened many cards at all on this account, and I'm not sure I ever got one on my previous account where I'd opened a huge lot of cards 😭
what weights more? a pound of steel, a pound of feathers, or a pound of shrimp?
you might be quick to say, “well of course the steel would be the heaviest! feathers are light and shrimps are small, the steel easily outclasses them both!”
but you must stop to consider. what if the shrimps ate two steel? two steel is heavier than one steel, because two is heavier than one. this would make the pound of shrimp the heaviest.

New trend, share what books you're reading or have last read! I'm reading Anarchy Works by Peter gelderloos rn, I highly recommend it! It's very engaging and well written
Going on a rant here, the sheer lack of empathy and enormous amount of mental gymnastics it takes to be Christian just shocks me when I really think about it. So, you like me as a person and you're my friend, cool, but you think I'm sinning by living my life the way I do. Hmm. And you worship an invisible force who is definitely a guy and not a woman because that would be unimaginable, but he's actually 3 guys who are really just 1 guy. and you love him, he makes you happy, he's everything good, but you also truly believe that he will torture me for eternity if I don't repent and start worshipping him. And instead of realizing how fucked up that is, you ignore it, because one of the requirements of being Christian is that you don't ever question god in any real way. the whole "no tears or sadness in heaven" adds another layer to it too! I don't ever want to only feel bliss. There are things I never want to forget that make me myself. What do you mean I won't have empathy any more?? I've been through so much for the past decade now and despite it all I'm a kind person. I've had OCD since I was really little and it took me so long to realize that nobody cared when I was a 7yo with religious OCD because being "extra religious" is a virtue. Your own suffering is seen as noble, and if I hadn't left the church by coincidence I might still be like that, and nobody would care, because suffering is noble. the church is especially fundamentally abusive to neurodivergent kids; you can't be different, you need to be docile and unquestioning and afraid of being different and most of all you can't question the guy who loves you unconditionally (terms and conditions apply), because he will torture you forever if you leave him but who would ever leave him because he's everything good and he's love and light and he loves you.
You can’t though. Anyone can say whatever they want, but it’s by how they interact with God in their hearts and minds that they’re judged.
Matthew 7:22-23 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
I'm not trying to have a go here but that's just a dismissive thing to say in the circumstances. I'm processing stuff that I've already been through which I can't just ignore. You don't have to welcome to interact if you think what I'm saying is unnecessary
My old Victus laptop just broke (worth almost $1k) and I'm unable to get a new one currently. To continue what I currently do across all my projects (OpenProfile, Cornelia, Oct.Ink, 3D Armor mod, mod pack development, and more) I need a device with at least matching specs. All my commissions are currently set to unlimited and will be completed as soon as I have a device to work with.
I've been hearing something calling out near my house for the past week and I thought it was a kitten at first but I just happened to hear a peacock in a video and that's the exact same noise?? It would be weird but plausible if it is a peacock because it's stayed in the same place for a while now and it's definitely a bird. I just realized that over the past week I keep thinking about the random peacock that lived on my friend's farm that just moved in one day so maybe I subconsciously recognized the sound lol
If my grandfather hadn't been wearing steel capped boots when a tank ran over his feet in WWII he might not have survived to have my mother so the lesson here is that you shouldn't fuck around with time travel and steal some poor sod's boots or who knows what might happen. I might not be making shitty wallposts on pmc. Think about that
Ayyy ty! :D my hair colour has certainly always made me very popular amongst older women lol x) My name isn't idunn but that's such a pretty name omg!!
People with short hair are super cool, people with ginger hair are cool, based on this info you are cool 2x!! :0 I think you could also be Idunn (not sure if it's spelled correctly)
Yep, most likely! I mean there's skinfight going on and it's quite a big motivation to continue making skins... After it's over I'll see, I'll probably post a few more skins and then lurk around, depending on my mood. I've found that I really like the community here, so that's a big reason to stay Aaah nice!! That was a big break, hopefully it left you refreshed... Four years is quite a long time!
Oo nice! Are you planning to stay here for awhile this time? :3 I've been making skins since I joined the skindex 4 years ago, but I've probably spent about half of that time on break :')
Whoaaa nice!! That's quite a long time! I've been here for a few weeks already (if not counting the few months in 2024), this is far longer than any other pmc phrase I had thoughout the years How long have you been making skins in general? :>
