  • As someone who got into coding much later in life without going to school for CS or anything even related, I don’t really like it or even know wtf I’m doing half the time. I’m just here to pay rent and make sure my partner and I can live without any other support

    I wouldn’t give up the money I make to do something I enjoy because anything I enjoy would be ruined by making it into a job. I fucking hate having to work and I don’t know how anyone who understands the nature of capitalism can even imagine themselves enjoying working in the US. I used to work for a university and went to grad school for psychology (dropped out at the end), which is what I would probably be doing if I didn’t live in a nightmare hellworld that makes it almost impossible to pursue meaningful work and pay rent at the same time

    Edit: you could always start a company of your own and give me a job





  • I also don’t know a lot about clay, like different types and stuff, but I can tell you that it is probably hard to get the clay off without fucking it up. I just can’t imagine clay coming off the bark cleanly and maintaining the details.

    What if you used food safe silicone? It shouldn’t damage the tree and it’s very durable, so you could make a mold of the bark with it and then reuse it over and over with all kinds of materials. It picks up a lot of details too, it’ll get down into the gaps and everything if you do it right.
