@aka What would you and your friends get up to? 😃

@aka Enjoying the company of great friends is a blessing indeed - glad to hear you guys have so much fun!

@TQ What kind of art would you be making, in writing/painting/music ?

@viciousviscosity I already do loads of these things. I draw, sketch, design, paint. Love to do this, but not for a living. These things lose so much when I try to make money off of them, so there's that.
I'd write YA, fantasy, scifi. Trying to get some writing done during #nanowrimo atm, but it's tough, having a job and all.
As for music: I'd love to experiment in different genres. Love electro(swing/pop), but also metal. :D

@viciousviscosity Have to say, I manage to get quite some stuff done beside working and having a toddler at home. But if I could have more time for that... It'd be nice.

@viciousviscosity If you're interested, I've done #inktober this year over on birdsite: https://twitter.com/i/moments/925399117114871808 for a quick impression

@TQ ❤ your style. 😄
You seem to have a great work/life balance, keep it up!

@TQ I agree that the joy is diminished when theres an expectation of production, extremely so in art.

Sounds like you have all sorts of ideas just waiting to manifest. Very cool stuff!

@viciousviscosity Truth is, I always do. I never lacked interest, just time.

@pmosetc What kind of things do you like to make?

@viciousviscosity I paint, but I think if money weren't a need, I'd take up every hobby I could find :)

@pmosetc “DO ALL THE THINGS!” 😃

@zigg A specific idea for software, or just an ideal to work toward?

@viciousviscosity At one time, in the not-too-distant past, I went back and forth with a friend on the architecture for an agnostic end-to-end-encrypted messaging system that you could build all sorts of applications on, like chat, a social network, a better e-mail, or even communicating with devices in your home.

It was probably a little ambitious.

Today, I might work on that desktop Mastodon client I keep having visions of…

@zigg
Zigg Urat™ the Mastodon Temple desktop application.

I think that might be the saner choice, the platform sounds cool, but might also drive you mad. 🙃

https://xkcd.com/927/

@viciousviscosity Strangely enough, I envisioned this thing as a *fix* for XKCD 927 😁

@zigg @viciousviscosity So did the folks in XKCD 927 😀

@starbreaker Penning volumes, and then tomes? 😃

@viciousviscosity Fucking epics, possibly even in dactylic hexameter. :)

@starbreaker oh my goodness! 😃 an epic of epic epic ness.
I hadn’t heard that term in a long time.

@viciousviscosity I'm kinda pretentious like that.

@noxy Where would you like to end up?

@viciousviscosity Permanently? No idea, honestly. I want to live in Thailand for a while, but not necessarily forever.

@noxy Just kinda travel here and there for a bit, experience the world?

@viciousviscosity I suppose so, that does sound nice :) I have a voice in my head that sort of blocks me from imagining that, but I think it's because I know it's not realistic right now.

@Skiant What kind of games do you like to play, and what is your preferred style of brew?

@viciousviscosity I play a lot of Heroes of the Storm at the moment, but I've got a ton of other games I'd like to finish.

In beers, I did an American Pale-Ale and a Golden ale so far. Next up is a Witbier, then a Dark IPA… And a lot more to come.

@Skiant Ooh, I’ve played that before, I’m terrible at it, but it does look like fun in the hands of skilled individuals. Who do you like to play?

I don’t know I’ve ever had a dark IPA. I’ve always been a fan of darker beers/stouts.

@viciousviscosity I'm usually playing ranged assassins. Li-Ming is my go-to.
I love how HotS is all about learning how to play the game, instead of investing hours and hours in learning obscure gameplay mechanics or items combinations (I'm looking at you, DotA & LoL).

Brussels Beer Project got me into Dark IPAs with their "Dark Sister". It's basically everything you expect from an IPA, but with strong roasted notes.

@Skiant I dipped my toe into League once… it helped redefine my perspective on toxic. 😶 HotS is much nicer all the way around.

That Dark Sister sounds delicious. I’ll have to keep my nose out for some dark IPAs.

@HereticSoul What do you enjoy writing about?

@viciousviscosity usually writing down critiques or reactions to things as a way of getting ideas out of my head. I used to write science fantasy, and I've been getting back into that.

@TheGibson What kind of music and writing do you enjoy?

@aldersprig Where would you like to travel?

@viciousviscosity The rest of the country, esp. Alaska and Napa Valley and Oregon and visiting my friends, most of Europe, Japan, Israel, South America…

@aldersprig Sounds like quite a sphere walk! The cultures, the people, the places - so much to take in.

@viciousviscosity I would absolutely love to … oh hey.

@cafou What does giving back/investing in your city look like to you?

@viciousviscosity

Participe to municipal council. Organizing events and concerts. Be a tourist guide. Spending my time with association. Writing articles in local newspaper.

@cafou That is an admirable goal; I love seeing people enjoy the things they’re passionate about.

@viciousviscosity

Thanks Super Girl .

@amsomniac Coordination of getting things to those who need them?

@viciousviscosity yep!
