Solarpunk Backgrounds
i want to share some of the illustrated solarpunk scenes i’ve come across while internetting. A lot of this art isn’t made for being solarpunk but it gives me strong solar punk vibes
Luc Schuiten www.vegetalcity.net
Beautiful cityscapes with organic shapes and a strong art noveau influence.
Victorin Ripert victorinripert.artstation.com
Concept artist building world and characters.
Sarah Webb
artofsarahwebb.com
Beautiful scene design. Also does comics and character design.
I’ll love to find more! Does anyone know artists who draw scenes with #solarpunk vibes?
I'm live on twitch! Come hang out with me while I play Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor: https://www.twitch.tv/averymd #magic
Not sure if this will get (m)any votes, but what should I stream tonight? Epistory (http://epistorygame.com/), which has the bonus of being typing practice on the new keyboard, or more Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor (https://www.tinybuild.com/diariesofaspaceportjanitor), which I am enjoying greatly?

cyberpunk 2077
i don't know how to say "this is not a joke, cyberpunk 2077 literally induces seizures on purpose" in such a way that people realize i'm not joking, cyberpunk 2077 literally induces seizures on purpose
stream update
I'm rather sleep deprived today, so I'm rescheduling tonight's stream to Thursday at 19:30 ET. 
It'll probably still be either Epistory or continuing Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor.
Now that I'm getting close to my first big update to Granny Squares in 3 years, I'm getting very nervous. 😅
What if I mess up the mysql --> postgresql switchover, and my own testing of the result misses some weird column data type issue?
What if I break the login process in a way that makes a lot of accounts inaccessible?
Gaaaahhhh. 😳

Can please boost me? Question for people not from the US (or Canada, probably): Do you feel like ideas like "racism is discrimination + systemic power" or "reverse-racism isn't real" are in some way ideas from the US? Would those seem foreign to you? Are claims around those and "we're not from the same culture, so we have different views" as disingenuous as it sounds to me or am I off?

thanksgiving psa:
colonizers don't get to make jokes about americans spreading plague as a thanksgiving tradition. i have no clue why you'd think its chill to make genocide jokes, especially at a time where indigenous populations on reservations are being decimated by C19.
give money to indigenous people and amplify their voices instead.
Tonight's impressive Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor achievement is: "Windowshopper". Apparently not many folks go and look at every store for stuff. 🧐

granny squares dev update
I *finally* made some good progress on Granny Square Colors dev updates this afternoon. Not ready for a release yet, but I cleared a hurdle that at least got blankets generating again.

dorky medical warframe shit
My right hand probably has de Quervain's tenosynovitis, and given how much Warframe I've been playing lately, I'm just going to call it "Tenno thumb".
(Get it? "ten-o-sine-o-vitis"? Sometimes I crack myself up. 😅🙈) #warframe
Tonight's stream
Tonight's No Man's Sky stream is rescheduled for Friday. 😔 My mousing wrist is about to go into a brace, and I want a few days to acclimate before gaming live.
