It is apparent that when I paint with watercolours, I need guidelines to know where the paint should go... Perhaps I can fix it when it's dried with a bit of smudge-proof fine-liner.
Why is it these days you must argue with companies when they have not fulfilled their obligations to you to get the service that you are due? Last year it happened with a gardening company, this year it has happened multiple times with a catalogue company, it has happened with two different magazine titles and now a subscription box company. A number of years ago, I got ripped off by a clothing company which never

At long last, you can finally post to Instagram from a normal browser. It took them long enough to create that facility.

Does anyone on here get Scrawlrbox and have you had your dispatch e-mail for this month? I signed up in October and didn't get the October box so the first one should be for November. I've not heard from them.

Still haven't got the box, even though it's been dispatched...

Ok, this new laptop has got to be one of the worst computers I've ever had. There isn't enough storage on it for anything, and I've hardly saved any files on it. How can they get away with selling such a rubbish machine?
One thing I've noticed since getting this computer because it's a smaller screen than the other is the amount of space websites waste through huge banners at the top of the page, huge spaces between site elements and huge pictures and writing so much so that you can't actually see it on the page or have the webpage functional. These designers really need to go back to design school.

Can't help but feel that this https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-59067101 is being used as a micro-aggression to convince people that a law allowing 'Assisted dying' (or more accurately, Euthanasia) is a 'good idea'....

What exactly, pray-tell, is bad about Euthanasia? A person owns themselves, and it's their decision to make whether they want to live or not, not anyone else's. If anything, we need more people to die in order to combat overpopulation. https://koshka.love/deathfindsaway.html

Take a look at the history of the Holocaust and you might get a different perspective on it.

And also, too, consider how vulnerable people with mental illnesses are. I am a carer for my partner who suffers from PTSD and depression. It isn't always as black and white as you think.

I think finally, when it is far too late to do anything about it that nature and the environment is being taken seriously. It's so sad. The reason why I say this is because the Open University have a separate category for Nature and Environmental subjects from science which it used to be a part of. There are a number of free courses that people can study on their website. What is /also/ a shame is that the work
bright-eyes's avatar bright-eyes 3 years ago

people put into studying courses like these (and the same applies to Coursea) is that with them being 'free' you don't get a qualification from it, so therefore you don't get recognition for studying things at a university level. Sure, it's OK for personal interest, and a study aid for those wanting to study the subject professionally, but I find it profoundly sad that money is used as a barrier to prevent people's

skills, knowledge and hard work from being recognised.

Apparently, one pharoah was an adulterer. Doesn't say who, unfortunately, so BBC Radio Three can't have a field day about it. I don't think that is the 'immortality' that the pharoah intended...
do you have a button i can add to my mutuals? also i found another zoology graduate!! im still studying and working towards my zoology bachelors and minor in marine bio :D
bright-eyes's avatar bright-eyes 3 years ago

I've not really made any buttons for the site for a long while because I was sharing my old computer and haven't really got around to making any on the new computer. Only had it a couple of weeks and there are lots of things I need to catch up on.

A lot of people wish that they had tons of money so that they can have a luxurious life style - I wish that was the case for me so that I could study all the various subjects that I am interested in so that I wouldn't have to rely on sites like coursea.

Most people are mindless NPCs with no actual interests or passions.

I have resumed study for the courses on Egyptology on coursera. I took a break from them over the summer because the temperature was really affecting my ability to concentrate and having a new computer is helping too, because I can now fly through the work a lot better. It is an amazingly rich culture and I don't think that the course does it justice because there is a rich history there in many aspects.

There are times I come across comments regarding the cost of clothing that is so delusional...

Oh boy, I find it quite ironic when a museum that has a huge collection of artefacts from an ancient civilisation famous for its writing cannot get grammar and spelling right or consistent on it webpage that's about some of said artefacts.
Every time I come across some obscure mythology that I've never heard of before, the more I find that I've read it or come across the imagery in Tolkien.

Was reading a review of the new Dune film on the BBC website. For once, a sci-fi film gets a good review. Problem? The reviewer has a go at people watching it on TV or computer/tablet. Really? We are in the middle of a deadly pandemic and this guy moans about that? I'm sure that most people would like to see it at the cinema, but I'd rather people be safe. That's more important right now rather then how you choose to

ive always loved dune and been excited to see the new one and i have hbomax but my bf refuses to see it at home and wants to go to theaters, im like really?

Didn't expect them to be absolutely brilliant, but I would have expected more for my money than what I got regarding those exercise books. I expected them to be more like those you got in school in the 80's and 90's and be double the thickness that they are. 24 sheets of paper is a rip off. There are 5 of them, but I would have expected something more substantial since books we were given then were much thicker.

I gave them a bad review on the website. A 10 pack of a similar product costs £7.99, these cost £4.99, with only a quarter of the amount of paper...

The website I was going to get some things from last week keeps spamming me when I browse their website. I'll buy the products that I want elsewhere...
I've seen people on youtube complain that the Winsor and Newton watercolours aren't pigmented enough - I quite like the muted, pale colours - they are what a watercolour is supposed to be. If you do landscapes, muted, pale colours are what you want in the painting. In Animals of Farthing Wood, Watership Down (the film and ITV series), traditional Disney movies and cartoons like David the Gnome and Prince Valiant, the

backgrounds are often muted and pale. The muted and pale look is often seen in Edith Holden's work, Field Guide art, etc, so it's the look that I would want when trying to do realistic landscapes and paintings. If you want that effect with other brands, you'd have to water it down a great deal, and need a lot of space to do so. They are also designed to be used in the field, so muted, pale colours are better as you'd

bright-eyes's avatar bright-eyes 3 years ago

need to carry a lot of water with you to get them pale enough. I don't think people consider how other people use the different watercolour brands, the style of paintings that other people do, or how they use them.
