Running a sale on my #etsy shop this weekend. 35% off of any $5+ order. I'm trying to clean out stock and get some money to host a personal shop with the goal of leaving etsy behind.

Got slipped some pretty cool deets on a website for any LGBT punks out there looking for a safe place on the net. As a migrant from corpo social media, it's nice to see some accepting places on the fediverse.

emszabo, 5 months ago to linguistics

Totally unscientific survey (I'm working on a small paper, all answers will be anonymous if/when published):

If you could learn any language, what would it be? And what's keeping you from learning it?

If you're mono-lingual: do you even care to learn a new language? (No wrong answers, no judgments <3)

Please boost, more responses are better.

Pixel art stickers on a blue cutting mat with a yellow 1 inch grid. One sticker is a hacker glider and the other is a speech bubble that reads "Hack the Planet"
Pixel art stickers on a blue cutting mat with a yellow 1 inch grid. There are 10 stickers in total. Each of which are a queer identity with 3 hearts next to the word. The hearts match the color flag of that identity. The identities are in no particular order: bisexual, lesbian, pansexual, polysexual, transgender, asexual, nonbinary, gender queer, polyamorous, and agender.

A little cacodemon I made in 2020. I could redo him with what I've learned since then, but I don't wanna be a George Lucas lol besides, he's too cute to fix

Wow, the amount of AI #pixelArt on insta is insane. Almost makes me wanna quit after 20+ years of honing my craft. What's the fuckin use of me putting all this work in for some idiot to push a button and get more followers in a few days than I've had ever.

I feel fuckin useless. I feel like giving up on art and going back to being a drone. What's the point in trying anymore when thieves are rewarded. I wasted my life.

Friend of mine just launched a kickstarter for a #horror #boardgame

I've play tested it and it's hella fun. It's kinda similar to Forbidden Island. Please go check it out!

Working on some #pride #sticker designs today. I dunno why, but the idea of a pixelated intersex flag amuses me.

Sometimes I miss mask mandates. I never got sick 😷 🤧 😪

The dumbest part of my current cold: a sore throat on only half my throat.

I guess it's #PortfolioDay

I make #pixelArt fonts, game assets, art, and even stickers. I've been pushin pixels since the late 90s, but lockdowns in 2020 inspired me to take it beyond fun doodles.

also, side note: does anyone else remember the comic Bob and George? Or have I crested the old hill already? :P

mock screen grab of a pixel art game that is heavily inspired by A Link to the Past.
pixel art font showcase with 2 text bubbles. The top reads "Pixel Bold for text documents: Spix of black quartz judge my vow". The bottom box contains several variants of the font in different colors (Black, white, blue, green, and red).

A couple recent screen tests from my project I've been working on. I feel like it'll never get finished if I were to continue doing art & code (especially with my work schedule, my sticker shop, and a secret comic project I'm working on). So unless I can find a programmer will to work for almost nothing to start off, I'll finish out all the art assets and release them as a pack on itch.io

omg how have I not posted about my #conLang here yet?

This is Scronix /skroniç/ (lit. "People-ish) the language of the Sea Peoples (Scronovöbromdi - lit. "People-of-Sea-the"). It's heavily inspired by Scandinavian languages and Hungarian. With a dose of German and English for sound vocabulary. The grammar is still a work in progress, but there's enough there to say basically anything. Word count is only 197 so that's the bottleneck atm. The Abjad is influenced by Arabic and Thai.

Fictional abjad

First real in-house run of my #pixelArt #stickers done. Just need to do product shots and make listings for the new designs. Mostly tattoo designs to start, but I threw in a couple #hacker designs and a bad pun.

Hey, does #trans mastodon have any good resources for mtf bottom surgery? Specifically I live in the PNW (upper left corner of US) so any good advice for surgeons in a relatively nearish area and any resources on making it affordable would be very appreciated.

Advice on what to expect and aftercare is also appreciated 😃

Finally able to print and cut my own #stickers. I've got some learning to do tho.

No longer having to rely on redbubble is super nice. Also, as much as I like the 3rd party sticker printer I've been using, printing and cuting on my own is so much cheaper. And satisfying too.
