I think I just put the first entirely-decorative nail into the walls of #ThisOldClownHouse.

All of the prints we made for the #SunrisePottyDoor (which weren't mailed to friends) have been torn into strips...except one, which now serves as a restroom sign.

Before we shredded the prints, we scanned them all and released them under the #FilthyHumanHands license so you can play with them too.

Work starts on the door-sized collage soon!

One of the better sentences I've written recently:

"These 233 original monotype prints were created as part of a larger collage called the "Sunrise PottyDoor", a mural installation hosted in a clown school lavatory in Pittsburgh, PA."

We've scanned all the prints! As promised, the images have been released under the #FilthyHumanHands licence for you to play with too.

Enjoy! <3

#RhinoRadio just went from Tom Waits to the Creature Cantina.

I see no issue with this.

#ThisOldClownHouse

One of the nice things about #ThisOldClownHouse is that everyone has a general understanding that some days are simply hard as heck for no particular reason.

I was given a little space, an ear to vent, and a theater wall to throw myself at to burn off some of the energy in the form of handstands.

All of that and a sandwich has help immensely. Not quite right yet, but a lot better.

Hey fedi,

So, with the news about #vim, I'm considering branching out and trying different editors/toolchains. Thing is, I've got a #vimwiki that keeps my brain running, a second one that manages the massive project that is #thisOldClownHouse and a third that is my website.

I'm hopeful that a non-slop fork of vim is in the future, but I can't maintain one, so I'm wanting to learn about my options.

I could use recommendations of things to explore. Optimally tools where the maintainers have stated a policy of not accepting slop, but I'm willing to risk things where we don't have *known* slop being introduced by maintainers.

I don't need an all-in-one solution necessarily, but I do need both a text editor and a wiki solution. There needs to be some tooling from which I can render a basic static site from the wiki format. I can shell script just enough to ease the practice of pushing files through a series of tools, but I typically need some handholding, so I'd prefer something that's already pretty well established.

I'm not currently looking to leave the terminal, no shade to gui's, just not what I'm looking for right now.

edit: Oh, and I'm on #openBSD, so preferably something that's already in ports, but I'd still like to know about small projects too.

We've been randomly spinning lots of music available under permissive licenses here at #ThisOldClownHouse recently.

It's been fun to revisit the music of friends like @ice after following their weekly 'sike telo' project last year.

I'll try to keep an ear on #RhinoRadio (the silly name we gave our in-building music streaming solution) so I can shout out more cool things friends have made.

Hey friends, one of my clown partners and I made a thing, playing with the fact that.. you can just make up your own rules for who can play with the things you create.

It's my second run at creating something of the kind, so when looking at how disheartening the impact of AI has been on creative folks all over, we decided to build a new ruleset for the release of some upcoming projects, and make it something others can use as well.

Or, as the license itself says:

"We made a ridiculous thing with our silly human brains, using our filthy human hands, in order to inspire our messy human hearts.

It is with strong encouragement, and a few simple rules, that we invite you to use your brains, hands, and hearts to play along with us."
