I drew these years ago as part of our submission to Immigration for the bear's partner sponsorship visa. In Australia, Immigration requires you to write essays about each other, and "your life together". I figured essays must get kinda boring, so I added cartoons too.
...and then after a loooooooooooooooong pause (laziness, the sponsored visa was approved ages ago), here's a new one! I really like pruning and weeding. <.<; The observant will notice that in 6 years, we both grew 2 extra fingers...
Specificity is the most !important part of the declaration.
<scamper scamper>
Even if it does kinda remind me of Marvel comics' Inferno arc from ages ago.
I would send this to Bellroy, but not sure it's the kind of "customer action shot" they'd like.
...on the off chance that someone, somewhere, somewhen will find them useful. Might even be future-nugget, though that's unlikely.
These builds are literally everything I ever found interesting enough to save, so there's no guarantees that any of them are good.
However, I've linked to my guides for the good ones in the spreadsheet.
We've been thickening savoury sauces with tapioca starch for a while now. We like it better than cornstarch, because it doesn't muddy the flavour of things the way cornstarch does.
At some point, we decided to thicken a pie filling with tapioca starch. <.< There's no going back. Tapioca starch is magical in fruit filling type goops. It makes everything so wonderfully blobby and clear and pretty, without being sticky and tacky. And it even re-bakes nicely, if you want to stuff it in a puff pastry and bake it.
Makes about 500g of goop. Don't worry about measuring exactly. :P I don't really measure stuff, and this is all conjecture anyway haha. If you use too much tapioca starch, you'll just end up with a more solid and bouncy goop.
The goop is great both hot and cold, and it reheats and bakes well. So once you have the goop, go on and GOOP ALL THE THINGS!
Unfortunately, most UI-kits are not awesome, and so I end up having to roll my own - like this text input component.
Glad to be back to using Adobe XD after just about 2 years of Sketch-Hell.
...why does my microwave have an icon of a farting cat with a clock for a face?
Is it because cats lick their bowls really clean? Oh well, I like cats.
I made a very very very basic Airtable template for a COVID-19 customer logbook for small businesses.
Like many Victorians, I watch our Victorian Premier's (Dan Andrews) press conference near every day.
At
one of the press conferences a couple of days ago, one of the reporters kept talking about "QR codes" for small businesses,
as if QR codes are magical things that will somehow record everything when a
customer scans em.
After that press conference, I was complaining to my partner, Does
the reporter even know what a QR code does? If it doesn't redirect to a
database, with form, etc, what's the point? How will a small shop set
this up?
Then I realised, Hey, I happen to know this no-code tool... (Airtable)......and this kinda happened.
The bulk of the work was writing the instructions in a way that normal people can understand and follow.
