yep, you should take some part time courses in the field and see if it interest you and continue on through college. you wont have time to be so depressed.
I’m interested in decorative metalwork as a hobby but it will stay as a hobby. I got a lot of photos of metal from the Victoria and Albert museum I’ll post somewhere. What made you interested in it? -

that they used to take longer to build homes, it took a craftsman 2-3 years to finish them older houses because they put time in detail. especially with the exterior with carvings in panels. like Victorian homes. many have a lot of detail that never really showed. there is a misconception that Victorian houses had 5-6 different colors of paint. the old paint was lead base and dull. and usually 2 maybe 3 tones where used. drab green or a faded blue color with white trim and maybe black trim on some of the ornament designs. now you have like 5-6 colors using modern exterior paints. showing the true detail n the designs.
most houses today are just stapled together. they wont last more than 50-60 years. -

You want to design houses? Can I ask how old you are?
A few weeks before my dad died he said he wanted to make steel sculptures, one of a church, and asked me to bring him things like these books, soft drawing pencil etc. I told him I’d call round but never did, was too busy doing coke in Belfast. So ig I feel guilt and want to make a sculpture now. I don’t want to get too into it because it’s probably just grief, not my life path. -

stop being depressed and be nice to people but give little fucks about issues. spend your mental energy on building up your life. go slow, don't keep telling yourself "At this rate, I'll never amount to shit"
you dont know what might suddenly happen in your benefit. and be humble. the reason is, if you get excited about how high up you have advance, there will be a burn out effect and you will want more and start feeling down again. just roll with what you have.
do what you just said you should do -

Are you Irish, Kafka? Red looks like a big Irish Teddy Bear. he's from Chi-Town so he has a thick Chicago Accent which is more rare these days for people under the age of 50. no one has accents anymore. not regional ones.
I don't think his family has Irish decent but I remember you mentioned Dublin. -

2022-02-12 at 3:36 AM UTCI'd rather be down in Bellaghy, tbh.
And as for what I'd like to be doing... I think I'd like to be lying in the dark, maybe? Presumably surrounded by a Provo company - a comrade on my left, another one on my right, and a clip of ammunition in my little Armalite.
(I really have to stop doing [P]IRA song memes but I find it funny as fuck and I don't know when it'll stop being funny as fuck for me. Sorry. You triggered this though.)The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
