Ok @lunarised took it too far… THIS IS THE FINAL STRAW!You can not simply change your avatar to a minion and expect people to like it! I do not align with your “minion politics”.All minions should be removed! You could call them despicable! Everyone is SICK of these things! Barely any character development!

@PonyPanda @Komnene @hidden @renai Sorry, but I had to. Haven't read this one yet, but I have read other Nietzsche. Just so that you know he does have arguments against Plato. Good ones. I am aware that Nietzsche has been mentioned in this thread already, so I will spare you more information.At the end of the day you have to find your way.

@izaya Blaming the government or the rich won't solve the problem, as capitalism and socialism share a focus on money as the "end goal". Capitalism and socialism are not all that different when it comes to what they lead towards. Most people prefer stability, and escapism over risk and improvement. They don't think long-term, and haven't looked into the underlying philosophy, history and ideas. They don't make things for the future people.Technology can make people lazy, but it can also be a useful tool. Man always wants to have a goal. Something to believe in. Even if that something is nothingness. At some point we live in a nihilistic society in which the virtual life is seen as better than real life. We are kind of already there. Risk and suffering is required for happiness. Take that away, and you take away the reason to live. Equality is boring. People are not equal. Nature is cruel, but that makes life interesting.There is always a lot to seek out. Many options, but not everyone has the will power or the want to seek it out. It is a mindset issue. There have always been optimists and pessimists. The common people are not the experts. Yet democracy picks their opinions over the ones of the experts. An hierarchy is inevitable when it comes to ruling.You might find the Sipo Matador concept interesting: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/untimely-reflections/episodes/49-The-Sipo-Matador-e1or57j

Normally I do not post during the week but... I am bald now.Reminder that the body is just a shell. Curious to see the reactions at work tomorrow.I will get my wisdom teeth removed in the weekend, and will likely post a picture. It will be temporary.

Certain goals seem to take longer than expected. I haven't started with other things I want to work on yet.Certain forms of escapism have slipped in too, which I will attempt to minimize soon.But anyway. Here is an old post:https://www.robinwils.com/escapism/chess-and-go/

Thinking of quiting all social media again. Not removing, but not using them.Personal websites are so much better.

I will soon quit social media. Perhaps for good. If I come back it would likely be as a brand for marketing purposes.Thanks for the fun times! If anyone wants my email or some other thing. Just ask.Let's say that I will be here for three more Saturdays before I leave.----I am currently remaking my site. Is there any content of my old site worthy to keep?I will rewrite anything I carry over. Many articles might get removed. Enjoy them while they last.

This account will be gone on Sunday. Have a freshly made Waluigi video. It has issues, but due to the limited time. I am quite happy with it.

@waifu @emma I wouldn't say it is stagnating. It is just used by a specific audience. While this audience is diverse, it is different from other social media.I am leaving, mainly because of my dislike of the cons of social media. Fedi is not all that different from other social media. Well, it is, but the addictive main parts are here. Even if those were gone I wouldn't get as much value out of it. The pros do not outweigh the cons for me. My reason for leaving has nothing to do with the people within this platform.Anyway, nice perspective @waifu! Timely drama issues are often not worth the time or stress. Think beyond them. Will they still matter after some months? This idea is not mine, but Nietzsche's. I may finally be able start to take action, break free from escapism, and start working on things. I have often mentioned and tried such things. It is time to commit. The right time often does not come, so why wait?Good luck on your journey, and with Fedi! The world/time does not stand still.

@waifu Melon.Felt like doing a quick sketch in krita after my gesture drawing session. Not of great quality of course. Traditional drawing goes smoother.

Found a tiny bit of time. Made a emoticon like thingy of @bot .Thinking about doing @lunarised next or something. When I find time. Just a set of emoticons for Fedi.Still have the source so can edit it in terms of text or color etc. Quality isn't perfect, but I think it adds to the meme-like format.

My NixOS configuration is now available on my website.https://www.robinwils.com/activities/programming/nixos/configuring-nixosI linked to @drakerossman 's site for home manager. It is likely that I will suggest his book once it is out. It seems beginner friendly.

I think this will be my two point perspective drawing for this month.Probably didn't take enough time for it, but schedule is too packed to spend more time. It isn't quality. The feeling come through though, which is the most important part.The focus isn't immediately on the action part of the drawing, so it for sure could use more work. The small cabara's aren't detailed enough, etc.@waifu , Libbie and cabara's.

Ok, wanted to draw a portrait today. Unfortunately for @alex , he became my victim, since there are not many people with real pictures here.The portrait itself sure didn't come out as great as I wanted, but perhaps that "adds" value. He wasn't supposed to look that "sad".

@lebronjames75 told me that they have confused him with the other LeBron before.This is a reminder to always invite the correct LeBron! The struggle is real for these two. Accidents happen frequently.

LEAVING FEDIPlanning to leave Fedi again. You know where to find me: https://www.robinwils.com/contact---The text on the contact page is great to prevent spam. I do not bite (unlike @iwillbite ). I just value my time. The effort-reward balance of social media ain't worth it. Something made me come back. Likely specific internet friends, and a bad mood. Chat apps I would still consider. They are less distracting.---I am remain interested in the Fedi meetups though ( @fristi )! Although maybe I do not belong there without Fedi.Perhaps, I take another look at Fedi, years later, like last time. But do not count on that. If there is still something you want me to share or whatever, ask. I will be here for one more week. -- The clock is ticking.

Don't think I have shared any of my not-digital drawings. My best works are at the academy itself though.But wanted to show why I see myself as way better at this compared to digital art. Although there was also more time spent into this.
