CAN AN OLD KNOB MAKE NEW ART?

FROT July 13, 2020

The bathroom door handle broke so I took it off to suss out what was wrong with it. Turns out it’s totally buggered. As a temporary repair I bolted on a couple of hose fittings. Something to pull on until we get a new one. It looked a bit like a freaky little square face […]

AT WHAT POINT DOES MY ART CEASE TO BE MY OWN?

FROT July 11, 2020

This is a question I’ve been pondering a bit lately on Hive with people discussing plagiarism vs. original art, and now that I’m planning to start posting to the Alien Art Hive Community I want to get a good idea of what is considered OK. As well as trying to get my head around what […]

HOW TO WASTE MORE TIME ON THE INTERNET

FROT July 7, 2020

If you are reading my blog, you probably already have considerable skills in this area and don’t need advice from an amateur like me. You are probably too busy to read this post anyway so just stare at this picture for a few moments and relieve yourself. Now I’m going to blather on a bit, […]

FIVE THINGS I QUIT DOING WHEN I SWITCHED TO HIVE

FROT July 4, 2020

Next month would have been my four year anniversary on Steemit. Except that I quit using it the day of the hardfork. We can choose to jump about in dog shit and then complain that our shoes stink, or we can look at stuff we like better than dog shit instead. Yesterday I was chilling […]

HOW GOING VEGAN CHANGED MY LIFE

FROT July 1, 2020

OK, I’m not really talking about eating any rabbit food here. I just mean sort of sniffing it. I know sniffing sounds a bit dodgy, but this is plants not panties, and it’s all perfectly normal. So I sniffed some vegan plants. Next thing I knew I had this urge to draw things. This hasn’t […]

A MEME IS WORTH A THOUSAND PICTURES

FROT June 23, 2020

Wisdom is useful sometimes. Today I felt like seeing a bit of wisdom so I went to my wisdom folder. Having 100,000 images in my collection has it’s advantages. Sometimes they are an inspiration. Lock down is over for now, the sun came out and a man with a shopping trolley was lying in the […]

POST THE SORT OF CONTENT ON HIVE THAT YOU WANT TO SEE YOURSELF

FROT June 16, 2020

Back in August 2017 I celebrated my one year anniversary on Steemit with this post. My name was @sift666 and I was all keen and full of enthusiasm on Steemit back them, like I am on Hive now. And what I said is the very thing I wanted to say today. Post the content you […]

DOING MY BIT FOR THE CAUSE

FROT June 13, 2020

For my first post on Hive I will be identifying as a communist shill with platform relationship issues. Gradually the purple haze retreated and I found myself in a small yellow room with an angry man in a red leather bondage suit. He was slapping me the way Batman slaps Robin. “We know you have […]
