My son, age 11, who struggles a ton with motivation to do anything that isn't immediately easy to do or enjoyable to do, has suddenly taken a big interest in tinkering with his stunt scooter. He's able to spend long periods of time at it lately.

Does anyone have any suggestions on other similar things we could try to encourage his tinkering further?

"Animated Bokeh" has been on my whiteboard for a long time, and this is the result.

I thought it would just be for cheesy novelty effects, but it also does lightfield manipulation that was cooler than I expected.

My fellow Canadians, if you want to be part of the USA, you can move there freely on your own. I encourage you to do so.

"To go to a foreign country and to ask for assistance in breaking up Canada, there's an old-fashioned word for that, and that word is treason," said Eby ahead of the meeting.

I think this cartoon from 2018 is one of the best Trump cartoons I've done, visualizing hate speech and xenophobia without the need for words.

Peaks and Pines! Two of my favourite things. I finished this wooden art piece in December. 100% made with reclaimed wood (cedar, maple, oak, black walnut and century old barn wood). I wood burnt the trees with a Razertip pyrography kit! Hope you like it

This message is intended for Canadian #Mastodon admins who are running public instances large and small. If you are an admin, please share with your counterparts. If you are a member of a Canadian instance, please send this to your admin.
A small group of us (Note: really, really small) are in early discussions on how to encourage our government - individual politicians & federal, provincial, and municipal departments - to move their social media presence to Mastodon. This would involve an awareness campaign targeting politicians, party HQs, and departments/agencies.
We are asking for input from admins to help us create a future state vision for this project, and provide us with advice or ideas on how to bring it to a reality. I will set up a web call within the next 3 weeks and hopefully you can participate. We are not asking you to contribute beyond input. Please DM me and I will add you to the invitees.
