Ryytikki's blog of stuff i like i guess

Hi, if you haven't met me yet, I'm Endel, a gay trans furry artist!

Recently (Jan. 13th) my roommate dropped the news that he is moving across the country in July, and while I was planning moving elsewhere eventually, this is much much sooner than I was prepared for or anticipating.

I have been unemployed and have no savings. The friend I am moving in with also is not prepared for this and is under similar pressure, but with the benefit of having stable income. I have until July to save up enough money to cover all of the costs, an estimated $6,000 (USD.)

I'm going to be working extra hard in coming months to produce adoptables and digital shop items to save up, so reblogs of those to get eyes on them for potential buyers are greatly appreciated!!

I don't expect outright donations, but if you are able and willing, my Ko-Fi is here :

This is a very stressful time and I'm doing my best! Any little bit of extra support will go a long way in making sure I get safely where I need to be, financially and logistically.

it's fun to run it's fun to play, it's fun to make things out of clay it's fun to fill your car with gas

I ended up using the glass not used in the horse to make this as my first Real stained glass thing, finished may 17th:

May 19th:

and now this is what I've been picking at on and off when i have the time to do so since:

(this was finished in March 2023,)

Anyways happy birthday to me having a mania fueled sleep deprivation and pots episode in the craft store.

and some more i can't be fucked to figure out when they were made:

the swordsmanship:

A toaster should toast things, without breaking down due to thermal cycling.

It should not make a table of what was toasted and when.

A refrigerator should maintain a low temperature, without burning out its motor.

It should not build an inventory and communicate it to a corporation.

An oven should maintain a user-specified high temperature, without starting a fire.

It should not measure the weight of its contents and give dietary advice.

But most of all, none of these things should connect to the internet [of things]. They should be as dumb and robust as possible. They should be future proof by virtue of having no compatibility requirements beyond

energy source and

physical dimensions.

There's a sewing machine in front of me that was built in the mid fifties. Its only compatibility requirements are the physical dimensions of needle and bobbin, and a 230VAC power supply. It is perfectly reliable after more than sixty years and should still be in another sixty. It's solid metal and might well be operable for centuries with very little maintenance. I doubt that the same could be said of modern machines full of plastic and microprocessors.

There’s probably more but these are the ones I can think of at the moment! Please be considerate and don’t play pranks at other people’s expenses!
