I just decided to start asking this instead of ‘what do you do?’ when meeting people. Figured I’d try it out on you folks.
Resin dice, novels, 3D prints, paintings, video games, wooden furniture, RPG scenarios. I have way too many hobbies and maybe two hours per week to work on them, so in reality I create very little. But making something physical is incredibly helpful for keeping the worst of my depression at bay.
I had a shop that made flaming nipple tassels, though I just closed down until the future is more certain. I also create sideshow and fire performances. My most recent one involves a drill and my skull.
And finally, a lot of D&D content, such as an entire world setting inspired by the tarot deck
I have a podcast that I create with a couple of friends. We take an ordinary object—such as a ceiling fan, or a paper clip, or a toilet brush—and we create a movie plot based on that object. The show is called Almost Plausible, and can be found wherever you listen to podcasts.
Small mutant corn plants in little containers.
As a welder, I create a ton of shit. Today, I created a new handle for a lathe, cut off the old one, and bolted on my part so the lathe functions (mostly).
programs, music and baby
Legos
I create web applications! 🎉 (AKA I’m a typical Lemmy user.)
Duct tape and cardboard solutions to questions like “How do I get these two pieces of photography equipment to work together?”
Philosophical ramblings to justify my existence, which according to capitalism has no value because I don’t have the ability to work.
Me: “If I make a new mascot platformer (gratis) with vertex colors, maybe someone would get me out of here? What are the chances and outcomes? Would I even have enough time to make something decent with current conditions?”
Blender, Godot 4, player controller in Nim-lang via gdext-nim, and on top of the 3 hats I need to learn I don’t have many viable ideas.
Also somewhat related to the social isolation thread in showerthoughts, I live on the edge of nowhere and don’t even want to drive.
Free RPG content, which I’d be happy to share with you:
maybe systems. my work tends to be getting one or more systems to do something a business wants.
