Hello I am Thoofan (あらし)

I like consuming Japanese media. I like watching anime, reading manga, playing games (sometimes japanese) and listening to j-pop. I’ll write about things I watch, read, listen, play & learn. Also a bit about the fediverse, everyday things, thoughts and other random posts.

The Fediverse and Me

I recently decided to hop on the fediverse. There was 2 reasons. I have a main account (persona: developer) and I didn’t want it to mix with my other interest, because I wanted to have a persona that is more chill and shares a bit about life. I wanted to test out the fediverse/ blogging in a more chill environment. (I made my own blog before this one, yet I post on here more than there) Also a silly third reason, to see how feasible it is to be purely restricted to the fediverse, and thrive. So far I have … Created this very blog (actually tested for a month on bearblog, but migrated to self-hosted as I wanted to host my own images) Hoped on Mastodon with out any prior social media related to this persona. Posted a few things. Bridged my mastodon to Bluesky, so I can flex to my friends that I am on their favorite corporate-backed platform while being purely on the Fediverse. Created an anilist.co to track what I watch and read, rather than it being stored in a note on keep notes. Also I get some stats. Started a somewhat-weekly series of posts on the blog where I try posting a random Vocaloid songs. exploring I am having so much fun exploring and finding new people, websites and posts that share new things. For example while cliking links I found tamaNOTchi, a virtual pet you can grow through your blog. Here is mines: Taiyo & Miku. ...

Using a Drawing Tablet

Today I borrowed my friends second drawing tablet since he bought a new one and had the old smaller one lying around. I am always in awe at how artists just blindly runs their pen across the tablet and can make beautiful art. It’s such a cool skill in my eyes. So, I decided to sit down in front of my laptop, plug in the tablet and launch Krita. I then started hovering the pen over the tablet and played around with the pressure sensitive pen which draws lighter and darker with pressure. ...
