Deviation Actions
The new deviantart logo is the epitome of how to NOT be deviant. It conveys the same boring process that any growing business with mainstream aspirations seems to be going through. You just gotta have an extremely simplistic logo. Gradients are poison. Complexity is to be avoided. This is an art site after all. Unite everybody under one easy to grasp icon.
Because the logo conveys what the business is about, and deviantart is about efficiency.
If I sound like I'm getting worked up over this, I'm not. How could I about something that is so boringly all-pervasive and happening again and again? Look at the development of brand logos of huge, expanding businesses and you can see the same trend everywhere. It reflects the dull and void-of-beauty mind of the corporate moneymaker.
And from a first-reaction type of standpoint, I look at the logo and think: Is this the website of a public transportation business?

Pragmatic protest hairstyle
So the Covid incidence just wouldn't go under 50 but even went up again. And I needed a haircut. It was already getting VERY annoying around the neck and ears. And I got that Wahl cutter for a bargain a while ago and always considered it as an option in cases like this. And then I realized how refreshing it is to have a bit less hair to deal with and how 'airy' and convenient it is, besides the pleasant contrast to the former annoyance - I like some variety. But I didn't want to shave it all; I don't think that would fit. But this style should do fine with my facial hair. And thus this is a multi-themed hair style: 1) Pragmatic, as explained 2) Protest, because I refuse to succumb to the mandatory testing for going to the barbershop, tied into the corporate-capitalist (big pharma) regime pushing their own questionable product while lobbying to block the only vaccine I would take if it was absolutely necessary, and I think many others would have been convinced by Sputnik V and boosted
Full Makeover Jacket
(update at the bottom)
So far I always went with: A leather jacket doesn't wear down, but it gains character.
Well, I had a very old one I used all the time and another ancient one I used for colder weather and on the bike and such.
But both have really aged, with light spots on the dry leather, rips, torn pocket linings (leading to secret storage, haha), both are boring black.
So I went shopping and really didn't expect to almost immediately find something that resonated a lot with me.
A couple days ago I found a jacket at a supermarket for 50€ and it was awful, like a plastic corset, and the pocket situation was cheapass. But it awa
Livestreaming has commenced
I did my very first proper livestream, with the resources available, pushing the limits all the time, heh:
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/237707793
I'd be delighted if you became a Twitch follower. Then things can gain energy and momentum, and I'm SO much better in dialogue than when talking into the void, haha.

Spread the link to this article if you are interested in this crap not happening anymore. It will never stop unless there is force applied.
(I probably shouldn't even have censored my language considering how much this annoys me, but I suspected a word filter preventing me from posting this entry, when it turned out it's just dA making trouble with my up-to-date Firefox. (I can click the preview button, but not the submit button.))
UPDATE: Kind of resolved for the specific case.
