- Week 4 - So far i’ve lost ~5.2kg / 11.5lbs 38.1kg / 84lbs to go. I’m now at 138.1kg. I always felt like the “marathon” only truly began once i passed 140kg. But every bit matters. I’m not noticing a change in physique yet but damn am i excited for it! Belly fat, your days are numbered. #weightloss
- Week 3 - So far i’ve lost ~4kg / 8.8lbs 39kg / 86lbs to go. From my starting weight of 143.3kg i’m now at 139.7kg, i believe at least 0.5kg is water weight. Water deposits kind of make it hard to capture actual progress. I feel great, my sleep has been refreshing again for ages. #weightloss

- Week 2 - So far i’ve lost 3kg / ~6.6lbs. 40kg / 89lbs to go. I expect it to be mostly water weight, though i’m immediately enjoying all of the benefits. My resting heart rate went down from 90-100 to 70-80. I eat healthier, i have more energy throughout the day, stress levels are low. #weightloss
- Here’s a statement for everyone that i have never and will never use AI to draw or assist with my artwork in any way. Thats’s a promise. I started drawing at a very young age, my first digital artworks were printer-scanned then colored on gimp at age 11. The struggle is the best part of art.

- Week 1 - Starting a diet once again (attempt 5, yay), i will post updates on here not expecting engagement, but to keep myself accountable. My goal is losing roughly 45kg or 100lbs till the end of the year. Target is a 500+ kcal deficit + interval fasting. #weightloss
- Afraid of heights? #furryart
- Healthy food can be so simple: A baked sweet potato A little bit of quinoa A dab of cream cheese Two eggs, some cherry tomatoes There you go, lunch
- Artwork is delayed, important work came up this week 🙏

- working on a new piece, here's a preview
- You can’t tell me that a random 60 year old house in west Germany, in the middle of nowhere, with like 5 rooms and no garage is worth half a million euros. “It’s 50 Minutes away from [insert metropole here]” is not an argument for that price. And they tell us to work harder, what a joke.
- Wenn ihr noch eine Switch 2 kaufen wollt, dann lieber dieses Jahr noch. Nächstes Jahr wird sie sehr wahrscheinlich teurer. An die beruflichen und gewerblichen Spieleentwickler: die könnt ihr von der Steuer absetzen 🫡
- Sunflower, „lady of the (k)night“ A new comic from my best friend lost and safe, check it out completely free, i’m sure you‘re gonna love the world building and its characters! tapas.io/episode/3759...
- Kit Fix-it! Is still being worked on, there’s an important game design and planning phase happening at the moment. A thing to address: Another retro repair game has surfaced- but we can say Kit has a fundamentally different identity and gameplay, enough to be way different. Will keep you updated!
- I love the idea of picking up a tiny YouTube series again like that old “Conquer the Internet” (web exploration series) but i need better ideas, better stories to tell. It was supposed to be a “guide to the internet” sort of thing, but i wasn’t confident enough to continue..
- Watch how they’re going to gaslight us with stuff like “you don’t need 16 Gigs of Ram, your files and programs will run on the cloud anyways, and AI will watch everything you do”. Silicon Valley wants to turn our processing power into a subscription service.
- Another indicator reminding of the dotcom bubble, companies are adding generative AI features to their apps due to FOMO when procedural algorithms would’ve been faster & more predictable. Kind of a waste of computing power.
- Twitter (formerly X (formerly Twitter (formerly McDonalds social (formerly X (formerly Twitter)))))
- THEY JUST WORK WHAT THE HELL? didn’t even have to fix it??? I bought working AirPods Max for 150 euros only because they didn’t keep it plugged in to charge while testing what the hell man 😭 I’ll do some further testing but so far, they connected just fine, sound great
- I feel like i know what’s going to happen. Picture this: Customer notices optical wear, sends it back, and it ends up in a warehouse for months. A worker plugs it in for a few seconds, nothing happens, labels it as broken and it gets sold on eBay. But it’s not! Let’s explore this phenomenon.
- New repair project soon! I got a decent deal on an Apple product, just wondering if it works at all (apparently doesn’t turn on?) we’ll see.. either i can repair it or it’s a 150€ paperweight 💀
- Tail
- I wanna create a little YouTube Shorts series again with this model as some kind of Host, but i’m not quite sure what exactly it will be about yet. Possibly indie games and game dev, or game corruptions. I just know that it will be fun and maybe a little chaotic..
- Working on something new (WIP) 🧈
- I want to become better at 3D art for games, i always wanted to find my own workflow for modeling, texturing, rigging and animating. It’ll be painful to study more of Blender but i it’ll be worth it. I want to create worlds with meaningful characters. Maybe also YouTube again at some point.
- Got into game dev because i’ve always been a huge programmer nerd who likes making games. Not really the deepest lore. I did work as a full-stack dev for three years though and i can recommend that to all devs who focus on programming.
- Discord mobile once again screwing with my muscle memory
