I played guitar after a while of not doing anything. Had a little burnout few months back and I’ve been trying to take it as easy as I can. Well, after a break playing feels great but sounds like shit… you got to start somewhere and petting my telemarker warms up our relationship pretty fast

Been working on a track for a couple of years on and off. I’d actually forgotten about it for a while.
Did some more on at the weekend and its been passing the ‘Morning After’ test significantly.
Turns out what it had been lacking was more shouting and grunting.

Two sessions into coloring. Up next is more pink. Once it’s finished, I’ll get some proper 360 photos of the entire thing. This is getting really hard to photograph. 
Street art meets geometry is the theme, which has led to an interesting mixture of harsh edges and loose freeform.

Wrote some horribly insipid and catchy tune which I immediately recoiled from. Added scathing though admittedly on-the-nose lyrics.
Laughed my arse off. Definitely doing this.

my idea at 4 in the morning
Here be Dragons.
so i had the fabulous and stupendous idea of starting my own damn channel.
The idea is to create an idmf news type update show complete with bullshit commercials,
fresh commentary on idmf happenings ,Releases (if its ok)strictly for about and by the idmf community.
Basically to showcase the talent here in a humorous and fun way IDMF style.which is in my opinion waaaasy better than gundam style.
Obviously this in infancy,however if you have videos music pictures or commentary about idmf feel free to contribute.No NSFW or politics. Think funny artistic stupid or fantastic.
P.M me with ideas links etc.or email!
I hope this goes well. i will put this together and with any luck it will take off.
If anyone is opposed to this thats ok.dont watch it.
if anyone thinks its a bad idea keep it to yourself.
AHEM! so on to the not the show yet just be giving you a guided tour of casa de RixtR
If you have vertigo you might want to avoid watching this.
not a preview of things to come,just me excising my manic 4 in the morning WTF.
so things might get sideways,random and generally unprofessional.

Not owning a dog.
On my hike today I witnessed two separate instances of loose dogs attacking each other, - their useless owners running around shouting and flailing their arms uselessly, like demented cirkus clowns, while their dogs fought each other as they liked.
A while later I witnessed a loose dog attacking a jogger as well.
With surprising strength and speed the guy actually wrestled the dog to the ground, by the throat, - and threatened to kill it.
Bizzarely, the owner of that dog only ever talked to the dog - and did not even apologise for his lack of control.
Instead he just repeadedly asked the dog what it was thinking:
"What are you THINKING, Freyja, What are you THINKING, Freyja, What are you THINKING, Freyja,What are you THINKING, Freyja? etc…
Like he was stuck in a panic loop. It was pretty surreal.
But yeah, the dog was allowed to live and the jogger eventually jogged on - seemingly unharmed. I actually kind of got the impression he’d done it before - maybe with other dogs. Who knows?
Finally, on my way back, I met some guys out searching for an escaped dachshound, - which I never saw. One of them looked like he’d been crying.
People are weird.
Keep your dog on a leash guys!
Thanks:)
