Emphasis on trying Do you sell anything on Etsy? That seems pretty cool. Incredibly I did The first painting I made managed to sell fairly quickly. My parents have a well established shop and have been listing my work on it. Seems to have worked so far and needless to say it's really driven me to do more  |

Did anyone else see footage of that self transforming Optimus toy? Pretty much melted my mind seeing it in action. Feels like a window into the future of action figures |

Although I have been trying to do some very loose landscapes as they're very popular right now. It's a bit trickier, but I don't think what I've done has been utterly garbage |

Feels like a window into the future of action figures Yeah but idk I didn't find it that impressive somehow lol. Also it doesn't seem to be popular with collectors because some people think it's funny that the main feature they get the figures for which is the puzzle aspect has been removed yet they're charging like $700 or something lol |

In my experience, it was always a struggle to transform them seamlessly. I think it's definitely an impressive display, but I sure as hell ain't forking over that kind of cash for one |

But there are strangely high winds. I would actually like some more rain it is just way too hot now. I've noticed in the past couple years that spring has basically disappeared it goes straight from cold winter weather to hot summer weather. I love light sweater temperatures but those are not as frequent now  |

I love light sweater temperatures but those are not as frequent now lol I'm afraid I've yet to experience an April where it's too hot We've only just got rain at long last and I know what you mean about the extreme changes. Last year we also saw this switch from very cold to very hot. Like nature decided to press the skip button on spring You probably would've liked the temperature here the past few weeks as it never got that warm (never came that close to 20 celsius), but stayed clear as glass. |

It was about 15 celsius, which is quite alright, but it felt like it was 20+. I was outside just wearing a T-shirt... kind of weird. Two weeks before that we still had snow. |

Yeah, this April has been a real weird one. I think it's been the coldest here in years. Like to think we'll finally get a decently warm May, but I'm not holding my breath. It is the UK after all I'm surprised it's the same with you though. I was fully expecting you to say it was melting hot again |

Well, the post had several real people looking like the Bad Batch, and it had Mike Pence as Crosshair. So I guess there was some connection... but it still kind of out of the blue. I was just scrolling through the comments, read his post, then thought "imagine posting this on PrequelMemes" and then I realized it was Spider... |

I always just give mine a few snips if I've got a few thick parts that need clipping, but I never go fully into giving myself a haircut. So are you shaven now, or is it just very short? |

Yeah I guess shave wasn't right it's basically a buzz cut. Haven't had it that short since I was a kid. Tbh it wouldn't look terrible if not for my hair loss haha..... :\ Guess it's not a big deal though because with quarantine conditions I don't have to go out much and can just wear a hat when I do. It'll probably grow back before school starts again |

I mean, with the weather getting warmer it's basically hat wearing season which is helpful |

Next step is to get some prescription pills and if those don't work might have to save up for a hair transplant.... lol 💀 |

Depending on who you ask, hair transplants can work. In some cases they work really well |

A tragedy we never got those episodes Jesus, I forgot how hard they lean into the foreshadowing lol Still, it's a terrific effort and almost makes you think about the very future of animated media. Some more detail and it'd hardly be different to real life. |

Well looks like I'm finally getting some more regular writing work other than my column in the local magazine. This boosting site wants me writing articles about various details in particular games, but since I don't play any I'm spending more time researching. Because of that I've learned World of Warcraft is one hell of a complicated game when you're a complete noob |

Seems like it could be fun. |
