In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.
Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

We're gonna be more careful and have some more talks about it.

Peace is the only battle worth waging.Excellent.
Princess Aurora is underrated, pass it on.Well, it couldn't last forever. I chipped into the TVT crowdfund way back when, and one of the perks was a year ad free, which seemed to last way longer than a year. Today I got a "please whitelist us" message.
Fresh-eyed movie blogSame. The site's getting a bit stricter about the AdBlocker and ad-free passes as of today. I had a year ad-free that went much longer thanks to being a Kickstarter contributor. I'm waiting on confirmation on whether that going off is just an oversight or intended before I do anything else since, according to this post "This will not change the experience of any registered user who has already received an ad-free pass, such as for their Kickstarter contribution."

I've finally gotten around to creating my own You Tube Poops. It feels good. At the current rate I'm going, however, I'm going to require useage of Blender for optimal quality. I do not feel ready to operate Blender, but I've been trying to watch a few guides here and there for the basics.
You're going to create original 3D animation for YTP?
Fresh-eyed movie blogI pretty much have to, since some scenes for "specific source material" don't exist and don't have ways for me to manipulatively edit them to exist without using Blender.
At the most it'll be "YTP disguised as Fix Fic."
I guess Grin's Star Trek edits are technically YTP, and he makes original VFX and CGI as suits him. (As part of casting Sisko as a brutal megalomaniac bent on getting revenge on Picard, all exteriors of Deep Space Nine are an original CG model with a gigantic Sisko head in the center).
Fresh-eyed movie blogI hope I'm not jumping the gun with this, but I was thinking of posting this for a while now. I already had an idea for a fourth vacation story, set to take place after Volume IX, and it has a couple of important Shout Outs that I wanted to make. :)
- Chapter 1: Hershey, Pennsylvania
- Chapter 2: Bermuda
- Chapter 3: For this one, some of my characters will be recreating the Oregon Trail
- Chapter 4: This one goes out to Quag 15. As a sign of our friendship, in this chapter, two of his favorite characters, Lynessa and Leah, will be going to Portugal :)
- Chapter 5: South Carolina
- Chapter 6: This one goes out to Raspy Mink. As a sign of our friendship, in this chapter, some of my characters (I haven't decided which ones yet) will be going to Colorado. :) (Important Note: No, they’re not going to visit South Park. Sorry, Max ^_^;;)
- Chapter 7: The Netherlands
- Chapter 8: Arizona

Princess Aurora is underrated, pass it on.Lesson 3 of HEMA longsword training. Worked on [em]Wechselhau[/em]. Then we got to do free sparring - my mind was blown.
I came in with a right-side downward cut. Instructor brought his sword up to do the Wechselhau, trying to beat my blade offline. Seeing this, I dropped down into longpoint, holding his sword fast. Like a dumbass, I thought I was safe (coming from katana and forgetting that the longsword has two edges). Next thing I knew, my instuctor leapt out to the left and I felt a sword smacking me across the face (well, mask, but still).
Good times.

Won the auction for it on E Bay despite what I'm positive were bidder bots trying to snipe me at every turn... I wasn't letting go of it that easily, though. Ended up paying about double the original asking price but eh, Worth It.

Princess Aurora is underrated, pass it on.Oh wait, never mind, I just got an automated PM from someone about this thread. Also, what does the 'Holler This' button do?
I survived a suicidal trip through apocalyptic America and all I got was this lousy forum signatureThat's if you want to tell the mods something.

Princess Aurora is underrated, pass it on.I have an English paper due tomorrow, and I've only started it at 11:45 the day before because I am a stupid tool. Luckily, everybody knows that all you need to do to write an English paper is to crap lots of big words on a piece of paper.
"It is often said that the best way to learn a subject is to take notes and inspirations from what the experts of that subject are doing. Who exactly said this, I'm not entirely sure; I just made it up for lack of a better opening." THIS IS THE PERFECT INTRODUCTION I CAN'T SEE ANY WAY THIS COULD BITE ME IN THE ASS

Princess Aurora is underrated, pass it on.I got done with the lineart on a work in progress, and started on the coloring. I'm hoping to finish coloring and start shading tomorrow.
My mom's trying to quit drinking once and for all. She's already gone a few days sober and I'll try and keep monitering. I'm proud of her, I really am.
