There is snow in Madrid. A lot of snow.
Like, "get out the dog sled" amounts of snow.

Help for Krita!
I've previously used Photoshop to make a fantasy map, using Filter > Render > Clouds (as shown here: https://www.instructables.com/How-to-make-a-fantasy-map-in-Photoshop/).
Is there a way to do something similar in Krita? It's a great way to get awesome shapes for maps!
#spelling tip:
"Viscous" means "having a high viscosity, having a thick consistency" e.g. syrup or gel
"Vicious" means "cruel and/or violent"
Attacks are rarely viscous, except when it's gelatinous blobs or something like that doing the attacking.
Trump, twitter
Twitter permanently suspended the "realDonaldTrump" account, because Trump kept posting things either menat to incite violence, or that at least were interpreted to incite violence.

The proverbial "green thumb" apparently most likely stems from a combination of two factors:
The algae that grows on the outside of earthenware pots will stain a gardener's fingers green
The existing proverb, dating at least as far back as Chaucer, that "An honest miller has a golden thumb"
These likely combined to create our modern gardening expression.
