The most annoying thing about being famous is having to tell everyone how famous you are.

For a short time I held the record for being the youngest person alive.
Some tutorials on YouTube are a LOT better than others and I’ve found some to just be terrible.
Different methods for paper making give very different results and despite the good method being easy… It’s not the one that people seem to think of when they first start?
If any tutorial tells you to put the pulp on the mould and deckle itself… Do not listen… Put it into the vat with the water and let it settle… If you put it on the mould and deckle manually it won’t be level and it’ll be bumpy and way thicker than you want it to be.
Another fun bit though is that you can experiment with the actual paper itself. Ever wanted paper that glitters? Just throw glitter in with the pulp. Want blue paper? Due the pulp blue. Want paper thats better for certain art vs others? There are loads of organic additives you can put in that change the properties without removing the recycled nature of the project.
If you have a 3D printer you can even make 3D molds to put excess pulp into and make cups and such.
I love this so much
I recently got deep into making paper!
It’s relatively simple, relaxing, and has a lot of repetitive tasks that take a while… So it’s been fantastic for reading audiobooks! I also get to recycle old paper and cardboard instead of putting it into a bin and hoping that it’s dealt with.
Every single piece of equipment can be made by hand for cheap though honestly I highly recommend a blender and a tub. Both of which could be replaced with hand made things but like… Why would you want to spend hours beating recycled paper to a pulp which you could put it into a blender for a little bit while doing something else.
It’s also great for my debilitating RSD because even though it requires a specific touch to be gained… Every step except for literally the very last one can be repeated at any point with no downside.
If the pulp isn’t blended right… Blend it more… If the deckle is unevenly covered… Just put it back in the water… Etc etc
I really think more people should do recycling stuff in general but this has been fantastic.
Looks amazing!
Do you know if it works on the steam deck?
Fun fact to add onto this. Before Reagan repealed the law, it was illegal to make a show purely to advertise to kids. Once it was repealed we got the transformers and GI Joe and so on but before Reagan every single one of those would’ve been illegal to show.
Have you played the original Judgement yet?
As a rust dev myself… It’s my right to be obnoxious
I used to like it a lot… As a kid… As I’ve grown it seems more focused on being incredibly in the middle than ever actually making any sort of point…
Matt Stone and Trey Parker are just so incredibly "Enlightened Centrist* that it can be painful at times.
They have some good bits and some of their jokes have rightfully stood the test of time… But God damn… If you’re going to make a political show… Do something other than the most fence sitting thing possible!
