Listen, if me being nude is going to be this campaign's running joke, I'm going to lean into it

Saw a woman riding an electric bike side-saddle today

god i would do some dark things to keep "the office" out of my newsfeed

"Our profit from the post office is the post office. Our profit from a library is the library. Our profit from a school is the school. And our profit from our lives is life. Our life. Ours."

Couldn't remember where this was and legit got a little sad when I thought it got painted over, but it's just the last overpass before my exit

Big day for tech reporters between the WSJ propping up algo-generated "movies" and the guy from WaPo lecturing all of Bluesky bc he got a speeding ticket

Jeeeeeeesus couldn't resist and just read the write-up for that awful WSJ algorithmically generated movie ... it would have cost thousands of dollars, the writer said, except they were given "special access" to the tools This isn't just ugly, it's unethical

Lmao WSJ made an algorithmically generated movie and posted it on its digital front page w the headline "You'll be blown away — and freaked out." Er these special effects wouldn't have passed YouTube muster 10 years ago dudes

Would have a lot more* respect for the royalty if they sat in normal chairs like the rest of us

Me, cleverly printing out 3rd party lion cloaks for my Chracian spearmen: a genius Me, surveying my spearmen after gluing their cloaks on and realizing how much green stuff work I have set myself up for: a fool

Tubi wanted me to watch Species and I was priming a bunch of models so I was like Sure, why not The cast listing is 4 men, Natasha Henstridge is in the third set of title cards Who tf is here for anyone but Natasha Henstridge

The only thing weirder than this restaurant playing children's songs on the TV are the people singing along with like "Skidamarink"

England really went hard on their last gasp of cultural relevance when they gave Matt Berry to the world

After painting my 2nd/Rogue Trader army in 3 weeks, it's been a hell of a pivot switching to my modern high elf army for The Old World These boys wear so much jewelry, my god Also, does GW actually think we'll fit 3 boys on this chariot?

WSJ just published an op-ed clarifying that we dodged the REAL nightmare Constitutional crisis: One in which a 2nd-term Biden was 25A'd, then Pres. Kamala Harris was incapacitated, and the Dems would have had to choose between Biden or Johnson This is what passes for intellectual discussion now

"The future is dumb dudes" I intone repeatedly under my breath as I apply for leftist Joe Rogan money

I am in love with Tom McHenry but also I may never forgive him for "Vigilance feels like doing nothing"

So I am committing to taking Eldar at our next 40k 2nd ed tournament but ... They're kinda no. 2 at everything? Struggling a bit to build a list I like, and it's not helping that the list I'm settling into just folds to the one I took to the last tourney

One of the lovely wait staff tonight asked me if my shirt was related to the real Holy Mountain and I kinda didn't know how to respond

So finally atarting my Chracian army now that I'm ready for my 2nd ed tournament ... So GW modeled all high elves as right-handed, but the chariot drivers are on the right This seems like A Problem for the boy forlornly looking at all the necks he can't reach

Watching Herzog's Nosferatu and for some reason my intrusive thought is "every animal in this movie is now dead"

Dear all, You don't need to make a niche Onion knockoff for your hobby Thanks and I love you

That last one.

I get it, WSJ is a dirty water-carrying rag But their lead story on the website today is literally an attempt to solidify U.S. claims to Greenland for god's sake This is distinctly and undeniably in propaganda territory, and it's in service to the dumbest possible cause

This turned out better than I thought it would

Maaaaking progress — all my 2nd ed army troops and vehicles are painted, so we're just down to the 2 big characters. I basically have until Thursday to finish these dorks Started on the Chaos Warrior Lord first — he has more gribblies, but will likely be more straightforward to paint

It is 1:20 p.m. The dogs have just noticed the road work sign that has been there since early a.m. It is the absolute end of the world

At a biergarten and the drunk dad behind me is lustily singing with 80s hits

Lol

We managed to see one of the baby birds that was nesting on the wall outside our closet! They all flew away in the last 3 days, so we were lucky to see one hanging out at the front door Didn't get a pic bc I didn't have my phone on me, but he still had a little floof stuck to his head lol

The march to the 2nd ed tournament continues — a real toss-up whether I'll be able to finish in time I started on the basic mooks, and I'm sanguine that I'll be able to finish them quickly — they're p simple, both conceptually and physically

Flesh hounds are done and ... OK? Intentionally been doing something a little more painterly lately, and I have some time pressures, but I really need to do more experimenting with these ultra-bright colors to make them work

(Balls up a betting slip labeled "karaoke pope")

Hounds are looking monochromatic lol I swear the bodies and heads are different colors, this orange is just overpowering Thinking about knocking some of this down with some violet ink

absofuckinglutely not

Because of my line of work, "the r-word" means "recession," but that doesn't mean you can just say "we used the r-word a lot" in an email guys

Productive day~ Finished the Armorcast Cauldron of Blood, finished the bloodletters, and the flesh hounds are a solid work in progress I don't want to jinx anything but I might actually finish this project in time
