I've read his books and really enjoyed them but I just cannot get into poetry. Any poetry, not just his. Or art really. I think I'm retarded in whatever area makes people "get" art and poetry.

Some people like it some people don’t. I do a lot of art but I dislike theater and overly dramatic things. I should read more books but I watch alot of movies and play videogames instead. It’s apart of life.

My brother in christ, I have been working on the same map in photoshop for like 4 years. It's grand in scale (4000x4000 pixels) and sometimes I don't have a concrete idea of what to put down, nor do I have the artistic ability to sometimes convey what I want. So I'll do it in small bursts for my progress. It'll be done one day, hopefully sooner. Doesn't help that I'm prioritizing studying, and other hobbies.

TTRPG map for a GURPS game eventually. Sometimes my ambition is is too large. I also have a stark rule to not use any software that makes maps for you, as I think it's all derivative reused assets that no matter what will look like a carbon copy anybody else who uses it. I'm not artistic, but I will hand draw my own map. It's just a large project where I am my own worst critic. It's a twofold struggle of artistic capabilities and creative ideas. Both need to be at their peak for some progress.

Health stuff I suppose. Exercising.

I've also long wanted to get back into drawing (was somewhat decent as a young one, then all my effort went into learning my profession), as well as learning more languages (only managed to learn tiny bits of French and Japanese, aside from the ones I work with), and learn an instrument (my dad, maternal grandpa, and maternal great grandpa were all musicians, why the fuck haven't I??).

I have exercise stuff. I have notebooks and pens and a bunch of art video courses. I have language courses. I have a guitar (and there's a keyboard I could bring to my place any time).

And yet, here I am. Sedentary, rusty in art, still only bilingual, and a stranger to instruments.
