I am currently studying photography and most museums or galleries only display people that have been doing that for idk 30 years or you pay a gallery to display your work which I find really stupid.
What I found to be somewhat accessible is something that directly relates to your art.
For example I created a photo series for my coming out and I wanted it to display somewhere so I wrote this LGBTQ Help point in a city near me and asked if they were interested in displaying my work and they said yes.Also what I did before is in participating or helping in making my own exhibit. This exhibit that some friends and I did is definitely a lot cheaper but a lot more work...
We did an open call for artists that haven't exhibited their work and we did the exhibition in a sort of youth center.What also could work is maybe through a bigger art collective or group.
But I, myself haven't had my work exhibited in a museum so I don't really know either (sry)

And since my phone doesn't have a headphone jack I mainly use my Ipod to listen to music.
And it my experience it just works. It's very reliable. When I listen to music I don't get distracted by my phone and I also don't have to look at my phone so yay! (Also the Ipod just looks really cool. -- I like the 00s Tech a lot)

Comment on Why is it so hard to get an ADHD diagnosis? How do you find a good psychologist? in ~health.mental

They even did brain wave readings, which was very creepy and kind of disgusting.
You have to put a sort of gel in your ear to ensure proper contact.
I think I got lucky that in my childhood it was suspected, and also, most likely, my dad has ADHD as well. I think I just dealt with it fine since as a child I had a very rigid structure. No spare time, essentially.I've also tried meds, but none have worked so far. I can take Ritalin now through my main doctor. I have tested it like 2 or 3 times so far, but I am very much still undecided if I like it or not.
Now I'm also doing the same thing but for an autism assessment. They have now stopped taking applications, and it's really tedious and a long process. I had to wait from when my therapist signed me up and when I got the first appointment for over a year.
I hope everyone who needs meds or support or even a diagnosis gets it. I wish all of you the best of luck!
I'm in Switzerland, btw

I wanted to become an ice hockey pro. When I was 13 I was already training 3-4 times a week with a normal school and no time for anything else.
My way to the ice hockey rink was about 45 mins to an hour and usually my parents would get me directly from my school or I would go by train to training. During that I would have to eat. Sometimes work on my schoolwork. Then go training for 2ish hours. Drive back an hour home. Either eat or do homeworks again and sleep.
During the weekends most of the time I had a match.It was also unfair because I had two sisters and they were most of the time just alone and unattended since I took up so much of my parents time.
I didn't hate it at the time. I just never learned a lot of stuff because I was always in this very rigid structure. Also I stopped with ice hockey after 13 years when I was 18. My mom still blames me for stopping to play ice hockey and if I only played again, everything would be better...
The funny thing is with my body and my physique I would have never become a "pro". I wasn't bad per se but I also wasn't the best. I was even in some regional selection but even there I only was average. Also since my height is reasonable (small) it would have been hard to be a good and successful defense. Most likely I would have made it to 3rd highest or even 2nd highest league if I kept on playing (not USA !!!).

I am currently on the waitlist of another therapist but I am still waiting. It feels like everything is coming apart.
I am struggling very much with myself. It feels like I am acting very unnormal or very self-destructive, almost.I just want to be away from all people. I just want to be alone. But for better or for worse I can't be / am not alone.
I also immensely struggle with dealing with my own emotions / feelings. It just feels that I am constantly fighting myself. With my own feelings.
Which is quite exhausting.Plus all that with not sleeping well due to some other stuff isn't a great combo and I just hope I will be able to graduate soon (this summer) and then start working on myself.
I also hope that I will fight with myself less because in summer I will have less stress and I'll have some time for myself.But at least it could always be worse. I'm also at the same time going through my autism assessment. Just everything happening all at once (as usual).

But I think only doing that is sadly not sustainable and you can never live off it unless you are in the top 1%. Or you make Art that is for a specific group of people and I think that can limit the artist a lot. If it forces them to make something palatable for the general people.
But yea. Hopefully I will just be able to get a studio soon and still study fine art even though it's not really something you can live off ...

It automatically tries to detect the words and completes them which works pretty well since I don't use my phone that much !!! (which is kind of why I switched to a flip phone)

Because I've been "learning" the Workman Layout since 2022 (in covid i had a lot of time and just thought I wanted to learn a new and "optimized" and faster layout (I am prob about the same speed now). But anyways?
Do any of you humans and other creatures use any other layouts than qwertz / qwerty ???

Recently I finally made it whenever I push my github page it automatically updates it on nekoweb which is really really nice.
I also edited the sidebar to look like an old win xp or win98 window which I really like.
(Reminds me to make a resources webpage)I also want to change the starting page to have more stuff and that it's not so empty but i am not entirely sure what to fill it with.
Also buttons and graphics stuff:
I need mooore.
I also am currently making a few buttons and have recently finished the banner which is on the sidebar. I generally would like to fill it more with more drawings / illustrations etc...
Today I just also finished a button but I haven't uploaded it yet.Also in terms of more I have been thinking of creating my own webring and also joining a few. Simce I am really interested in photography I think it would be fun to create a webring for that!
Anyways I think that is all -- there is always so much to do and I think I should also more consistently write on my blog and make it like either a weekly or monthly recap thing. But we will see
If you have any feedback, criticism, questions or just anything I am always happy to talk about "shitty websites" (not in a bad way! --> indie web for the win !!!)

The biggest reason why I like him so much is because of my obsession with the Blåhaj.
Also one cool thing I know is when the babies are born they are called pups and that is just the cutest thing I've ever heard. (Also they are like 1.2-1.5m in length when they are babies so they are huge already which I kinda don't understand how they get born in that size.
But other than that I virtually know nothing about them.

I look already pretty feminine I guess so most people just perceive me as a thing that dresses feminine and then automatically use she / feminine pronouns as a default which is fine for me.
I am myself also don't really mind with the pronouns things. Aslong as it's not masculine everything is fine to me!!!
I change them for myself on a day to day basis because it feels right to use A for this day and use B for another day. So I can't expect from anyone to always use the "right" pronouns for myself if I don't even know what I want to use :) -

The Right wing party (SVP) I think even said a few months ago that they should take away all the dual citizenship.
And he was a dual citizenship of turkey and Switzerland even his whole family still lives in turkey. So even that would fit with their mission to take away the dual citizenship from "bad foreigners" or whatever they see those people as.
And I think just generally the ads that are currently up are very insane and cherry picking statistics. - - > from SVP
I got quite a shock because I have only seen such ads in like idk america or Hungary is a recent example. But seeing such ads from SVP is kinda insane:
There are 3 statistics next to each other:
And even when I was talking to people it seemed most people were surprised seeing this kind of ads here in Switzerland. Because yes the right wing party is problematic but I didn't know they were as bad as this!!!
