Be aware of household hazards.
Tampons are a big deal.
Your garbage cans need lids.
Your dog who might get into stuff needs to be tethered to furniture inside when you go out.

Don't lose your best friend.

Life is fragile.

My dog Locke had surgery the other day (had to borrow for it).

He was getting better, but now he's got a fever I cant get under control and I'm back at the emergency vet clinic. On the phone they were talking about hospitalizing him. Yesterday when I was here (the fever started yesterday and then subsided and now its back) they said if I had to hospitalize him the costs would be around $1720.25CAD for the two day stay with what he needs to get better.

[It ended up being 3 days and 2587]

After calling relatives from the animal hospital, one was able to borrow the funds to help me pay the people, but it's a lot to pay back on top of the surgery.

If you can help or boost, I've now got a ko-fi drive for his hospital fees. He's been my best friend for a long time, he's such a loving dog.

If there's any extra by some accident after paying his hospital fees I will of course donate it to whatever pet charity people prefer.

Introduction:

Hi! Hawkwinter here. New to mementomori.social.

I had been primarily using calckey.social the past while, (and some of the extra features their software adds are great) but they've been having frequent stability /usability issues that were making it hard to use, and Roni said I could set up here. I have nothing against the Firefish devs / admins on a personal level or anything, they seem quite nice from the bits we've interacted.

I'm also @Hawkwinter - but I'm mostly trying to stick to using that for art-related stuff.

I do 3d character stuff, 2d graphic design and cartography stuff. A bit of 2d character art. Tech/it stuff. Programming. Working on a Visual Novel in Ren'py. I'd like to figure out how to make VRChat and VTuber avatars.

Not currently accepting commissions, but I would probably like to in the future.

I like TTRPGs? Particularly GURPS, & heavily homebrewed D&D3.x with Eclipse. Also Rolemaster 4e. Played other stuff over the years but those ones are my favorites.

For entertainment, I like Wuxia, and Xianxia, and the Forgotten Realms, and Tolkien.

I'm interested in sustainable longterm architecture (to last centuries, not decades), science and tech, passive heating and cooling systems, and high-efficiency masonry woodstoves. 'Fancy-offgrid'. Regenerative agriculture and watershed management is neat too.

I occasionally read some philosophy. Nietzsche has a few neat ideas on individual self improvement, but the Tao te Ching has neat ideas on other stuff, like a few ideas on how a functional society would work. I'm not going to pretend to be a well-read philosophy student though.

In addition to regular social-media-ing, Gamedev-type stuff might get posted from here sometimes too? I'm really not sure.

Anyway, here's some misc examples of my work in different mediums / styles. The custom in-game menu screenshot is a WIP. I've been doing a good bit of reprogramming and extending things under the hood.

Cheers!
