I love how cats just smack the shit out of stuff they don't understand 😂

What if a 3D printer didn’t have to sit on a table? ❌ In his new Prague studio, Proper Printing designed a furniture-like stand for the Prusa CORE One, with space for spools and build plates. He used the CORE One CAD files released on Printables under the OCL Open Community Licence. The result fits nicely into a living or studio space – and one of the modified printers even ended up at Galerie Rudolfinum in Prague. ✨ youtu.be/ef0z9zrmhu4

@Cluster_M Is this a good platform with which to develop some basic 3D modelling skills? I can use Blender, but everything takes an absolute eternity to figure out and execute.

Winston Churchill fought his depression with bricks. He'd lay them for hours at his country home in Kent. He joined the bricklayers' union. And in 1921 he wrote about why it worked. It took psychology another 75 years to catch up. He called his depression the "Black Dog." It followed him for decades. His method for fighting it back was as basic as it sounds: laying brick after brick, hour after hour. Churchill spelled out his theory in a long essay for The Strand Magazine. People who think for a living, he wrote, can't fix a tired brain just by resting it. They have to use a different part of themselves. The part that moves the eyes and the hands. Woodworking, chemistry, bookbinding, bricklaying, painting. Anything that drags the body into a problem the mind can't solve by itself. Modern psychology now calls this behavioral activation. It's one of the most-studied depression treatments out there. Depression sets a behavior trap. You feel bad, so you stop doing things, and doing less means less to feel good about. Feeling worse makes you do even less. The loop tightens until you can't breathe inside it. Behavioral activation breaks the loop from the action side. You schedule the activity first, even when every part of you doesn't want to. Doing it produces small rewards: a wall gets straighter, a painting fills in, a messy room gets clean. Those small rewards slowly rewire the brain. Action comes first, and the feeling follows. Researchers at the University of Washington put this to the test in 2006. They studied 241 adults with major depression and compared three treatments: behavioral activation, regular talk therapy, and antidepressants. For the people who were most severely depressed, behavioral activation matched the drugs. It beat the talk therapy. A 2014 review of more than 1,500 patients across 26 trials backed up the result. Physical work like bricklaying does something extra on top of this. It crowds out rumination, the looping bad thoughts that grind people down during the worst stretches of depression. Bricklaying needs both hands and gives feedback brick by brick: each one is straight or crooked. After an hour you can see exactly how much wall you built. No room left for the mental chewing. The line George Mack used in his post, "depression hates a moving target," is good poetry. The science behind it is sharper. Depression hates a brain that has somewhere else to be.

He chose the dark side of the Force..🐈🐾😂 📹thebaksy

Camping car keyrings in Korea! 🇰🇷 Why do we never get stuff like this? 🙄

I repainted him :]

This is the first game I've worked on as art director... 21 years ago already! Always surprised to see this game popup on my timeline from time to time. I guess it's to be expected on May the 4th ^_^

In Michigan for the weekend and just found out they opened a Book Off here! One of my favorite spots, so of course I had to grab some Trails merch 🔥

This is my grandad, he built the original R2-D2 for the first Star Wars film… Jack was a master sheet metal worker, and was roped into using his skills on an obscure project to turn the sketches for the droid into something that could be constructed out of aluminium sheets. I always knew he'd helped make part of R2-D2. However I only found this photo in recent years and have since learned that he was actually instrumental to the construction of the entire droid, particularly with working out how to machine the complex shapes like the dome and legs out of single sheets of aluminium. He didn't just build one either, he ended up constructing a handful of the droids for various uses in the film. I still have no idea how he did it, especially without modern software and computer-controlled machining. Unfortunately I never got to know him as he died when I was a baby, though I have a feeling we share a lot in common. I also have his old Dragon 32 computer that he was using to learn programming in the 1980s, with reams of hand-written code that still works on the computer. #MayThe4th #maythefouthbewithyou #StarWars

I built a Star Fox Arwing from a 1993 issue of Nintendo Power, and I'm convinced no child successfully built this thing.
