    Something I got curious about--

    Are there jobs/freelance work if your qualification is just "I'm really good at using Google SketchUp"?

    Or is it more of a tool that people like urban planners, architects, etc use alongside their job?

    I'm not sure that that many professionals use it

    it's very intuitive, but the limitations are severe once you've learned to use AutoCAD

    whose interface is exactly as fun to learn as to pull teeth, but once you've learned it it's a hundred times faster than sketchup

    if I want to draw a line, autoCAD is equally useful if I've got points A and B or point A and an angle and a length or etc

    sketchup is not

    I gotcha. AutoCAD used to basically be 90% of my dad's business. I never bothered to fully learn it though. Powerful but complicated.

    My zombie survival life simulator They Don't Sleep is out now on Steam if you want to check it out.

    the benefits are that it's such an old and ubiquitous piece of software that there's a million tutorials out there

    the drawbacks are that it's such an old and ubiquitous piece of software that they've never removed a button ever so simply getting your autoCAD to look anything like your lecturer's autoCAD is a trial

    Per usual in Fallen London, I find myself lost in an unnavigable labyrinth doing things I ought not to be doing if I were a smarter man, being pursued by man and beast, both of which ARE smarter than me.

    Try to catch me this time, suckers.

    I went to a nachspiel I wouldn't have gone to if my friend didn't get really drunk and wanted to go to a nachspiel

    after dragging her and others through the streets for half an hour she decides to get a cab instead. Which was annoying but at least taking a cab with friends was a way better plan than her original "I'M JUST GONNA STUMBLE HOME NOW ACROSS THE BRIDGE NOW ALONE OK BYE" plan which I rejected instantly

    I was geared to walk her home but then she suddenly was determined to go to a nachspiel and I decided that she was not going to a nachspiel alone ("I just want to get four penises in me and fall asleep" "Okay I'm going to at least make sure it doesn't happen in the opposite order")

    a lot of wasted time but at least it very circuitously led to her getting home safe

    It's from Santa Con. The single worst day in the city where the most ignorant and disrespectful transplant whites gather together and ruin everything.

    she and the other drunk friends who ended up taking the cab seemed rather sexually frustrated after last night

    which I found hilarious, being anything but

    I got my payment in fucking with her snapchat mystory and frustrating her by refusing to tell who came home with me yesterday

    she does look like a human who has the capacity to ruin things. i do not doubt this.

    in fact that looks like the gestation of a bad idea. where you drink to instill "courage" to move forward with this plan that your sober mind would otherwise consider only a flight of fantasy. . .and yet there is still something cold in your hand and. .

    when did we get here?

    brown hair, brown eyes, quick to tan is a stereotypical look from the county north of here, specifically because a portugese ship got shipwrecked there and most of the sailors never bothered to try to get home again

    Nope. In terms of overall awfulness Santa Con blows everyone else away

    Hell I live in the center of Jouvert where a few people get murdered every year and I'll take that over Santa Con 365 a year
