I made this thread seperatly from the drawing thread because first, I want it to be visible from everyone, secondly, I wanted to separate painting to drawing. In this thread, post paintings you've made or are doing at teh moment or drafts. Talk about paintings and the related (color used, canvas used, etc…)

The Roman Empire was the center of the world back then, and there was nothing like the art including paintings produced there in the entire world. Despite this nearly all has been lost to history and the surviving works are mostly wall paintings.
A similar situation exists for the written works, most books and letters have been lost forever.
There was no civilisation on the same level in the entire world with Ancient China coming in second place.

I think there was a thread here not long ago of a mage building humanoid robots. It was themed like the bible, with something about the female robot being eve and the male adam. The structural parts were fiberglass, I think? Robomage please come back and show your progress. I think about it every day.

Look at his /diy/ threads. I think his obsession with his robots is interesting and admire his relentlessness but it is quite clear that he has no idea what he's doing. His arrogance when experienced people point out his ignorance is off-putting. That being said, I do not resent him and wish him all the best but looking at his track record it seems unlikely he'll get even remotely close to success.

Do you think we will ever have a breakthrough moment of mass adoption of robotics like we did with smartphones, computers, AI, cars?
Like the beginning of a new era where all kind of robots are embedded in every facet of society? I don't think a lot of people could imagine today back in the 50s or 60s.
Then again the tech might just stay at it's current level for decades.
Maybe the cost is just too high, mass adoption of smartphones only became possible when very cheap low-power computing became the norm.
I don't see robotics hardware dramatically dropping in price anytime soon. Maybe we'll see some attempts in the future to lower the price by mass production and standardisation, but then there have to be cheap makers and sufficient demand of robots too.
Anyway everyday tech did not have any dramatic breakthroughs since the mass adoption of smartphones.

Qliphoth traveller here, i fornicate with the demon queens and they teach me debaouchery and magick in dreams. Basically i'm still stuck at lust. I went beyond but found out it's fucking horrible (nofap,semen retention). It's like the soul stands bare before the almighty. This spehere is brutal, took me about six months of this shit to give up. So went back to Lilith,Naamah,Babalon, Ishtar and all the other aspects of Venus. Beautiful, warm pleasure But i gotta go through this sphere to cross the abyss and become that black diamond. Free from the loop, free from the wheel doing whatever the fuck i want. Warning though, once you start this journey there's no getting off, you either burn or ascend. Horrible things will happen to your soul,mind and body. The alternative is coming back to this shithole. The other way, is that dark soul piercing evil that child molestors do like that guy from The True Detective or Epstein. You entrap souls in that awful awful loop and you get more free everytime you do it. The dark side of indian mages know this, they eat the dead, rape their sisters/mothers and know they ascend. The path to God is horrible.

I've always had an interest in magic, but I'm kind of over at this point. Over the better part of nearly 15 years I've dabbled in and explored every tradition imaginable, sought out every book I could, even went looking for practitioners (guru's and masters) in real life and I never found anything that satisfied me.
All the Golden Dawn derived stuff is trash, the Solomonic grimoire tradition is nonsense as well, all the New Age witchcraft stuff is hokey too. Even the niche stuff barely anybody's heard about is nonsense. Nobody can actually do magic, or convincingly demonstrate any abilities. All occultists are fat bald guys that seem to die prematurely. If magic is out there it's certainly hidden from everyone, and all the material available on it is a bunch of nonsense.

One thing that completely captivates my interest and imagination is reading about genocides. Some might perceive it as an immature morbid fascination, but for me I think genocide connects aspects of history, politics and human psychology I find interesting.

I collect certain things related to genocide. I have a ‘srbosjek’ - a Serb cutter. The hand knife was used to cut the throats of Serbs during the genocide by the Croatian Ustasze.

I have always thought that beneath the veneer of human civility and empathy, most humans are under certain conditions capable of psychopathic acts of cruelty. Humans bend to social pressure with ease and our empathy is not as strong as it is performed. Lord of the Flies is an understatement.

I visited Cambodia and was really blown away by the history there. The ideology of the Khmer Rouge was fascinating. The number of people that took part in the genocide and only 3 were prosecuted.

It is very difficult to find some actual information on genocides which isn't tainted by politics or propaganda. I wonder why politicians and governments have such a fixation on this stuff. Maybe it is simply because they were committed by political regimes.

I played some Yu-Gi-Oh! with my older sister yesterday, Forbidden Memories rules since we grew up on that. It was a lot of fun! I'm leaving my parents' house soon though, just came by to visit for the weekend, this got me in a Yu-Gi-Oh! mood yet again, I might play some more today, and when I'm home I think I'll pop in a video game to play solo as I come from work.

I'm 30 and I don't play it, but I used to in elementary school. 2 succ actually stole my pack of cards but got caught and had to give it back.
I remember really enjoying playing this game with other kids on the playground but they tried to steal or swindle these rare or expensive cards I had acquired.
I'm not familiar with the current game, but as I see it back then it had this early 2000s feeling/atmosphere about it which made it so fun together with the anime and the GB/GBA games. It must have lost this feeling surrounding it.

Do you have a driver's licence? If so, how did you managed to obtain it? In Eastern Europe, it's pretty hard to get one, a long and painful journey.

It took me almost 1.5 years (including the COVID shutdowns) to get one. I also had to wageslave to be able to pay for the training, it's not cheap around here.

My motivation was that I live in a remote, hilly part of a small town, right next to a forest and there is no public transportation here. I was hold hostage up here, totally isolated. Sound good, but I was totally dependant on my parents to get into the town. I couldn't just go to the groceries, that would be a 2+ hour journey.

It's my single greatest achievement and I'm pretty proud of it. Driving is very useful skill, and one that is realistic and obtainable for NEETs, wizards. A way to make yourself more independent from your parents, others.

What are your thoughts?

US has 14.2 traffic fatalities per 100k. China has 17.4. For reference Sweden is the lowest major country with 2.1 and Zimbabwe is the highest at 41.2. So there's not really much difference between the US and China. China has actually implemented stronger standards recently too and competition in the marketplace is such that unsafe cars don't sell well.

I hate how I hate to drive so much every day… often I get close to being involved in accidents and it reminds me that a small mistake can cause so much damage, I could become crippled or simply die because of a stupid error, maybe hurt or kill someone and ruin my life feeling guilty for ruining someone else. How do you guys deal with these odd feelings?

No, they make this absurdly expensive in my country, talking about the fees to get it.
But I also live in a city in Europe where I can walk to most things, don't even have to use a bike or public transport, so I can get away with this.
Living in one of those ultra-American suburbs where everyone uses vehicles seems unreal to me.

Recently I've been getting into photography. I've found that after doing so, I perceive moments in different ways. Things simultaneously seem more transient, yet more permanent. It's a sensation that's difficult to describe, except to say that I am more 'aware' of the moments around me. For obvious reasons I have avoided urban areas, but in terms of landscapes and natural shots, it is quite peaceful.

Any photography hobbyists here?

Yeah that one. And the elf being the king/hero of some prophecy or something, being forced to kill a child to save something greater, except the kid wasn't a kid but some illusion or shapeshifter who orchestrated it, because what the elf was supposed to "kill" was his "innocence". It was just getting too pretentious for me and I dropped it.

This reminds me of another 2 video game related webcomics.
- Goblins one which I dropped when it had a "pseudo rape" arc. Some bald human barbarian and lamia chick had a nice thing going, but lamia is cursed to forget about him and she prepares to leave him when he uses some magic item to make her stop which triggered her PTSD flashback of being raped by some other dude before. Then the artist dumped some huge ass sobstory on the website about how his mom was raped or something and even a small interview with her. I dunno if it was an elaborate joke or not but I just dropped it at that point.

- Order of the Stick. Was nice for a while but then at some point the story pivots to "but umm have you considered that goblins are only evil because of socio-economic factors and it's in fact humans that are bad?" which also caused me to drop it.

It's been a while so I may not be remembering this properly.

Pretty degenerate. Thought he made a new webcomic because a lot of his original stuff had guest artists who were already integrated into his storylines. Didn't update or slowed for a while but I sent him a sympathy email when next to one of his comics he talked about being pushed out of a friend group because of a succubus. Then he did one or two more updates after that.

I found it reddit tier, like deadpool for fantasy.

One dumb comic I followed for a while (because it was something to follow) was a lego comic based on star wars and star trek.
