Dr. Crusher falls for a sex candle she meets on Planet Space Scotland. Wait, that IS the accurate description.

We've been doing that for all the times they don't shovel their sidewalk. So far it hasn't discouraged them from that, either.

Yep! They just close the tickets, sometimes responding that the truck isn't there anymore when they swing by on Monday.

Everyone needs "flux" and "zap" keys.

Flashes seems to populate your feed with any and all Bluesky posts where you've included media of your own. Posting a photo to one app automatically cross-posts it to the other, but making a text post on Bluesky doesn't cross-post it to Flashes, if there's no photo or video in it.

I've used it for all of 30 seconds. As far as I can tell it doesn't have a separate contacts list. But it does have some new feed controls (only show replies from people you follow, minimum # of likes a reply needs to be shown in your feed, and a couple others.).

This kind of blew up unexpectedly. So here you go - an improved render, with the lighting corrected. I'm both impressed and horrified by my creation.

Like, I get the idea behind the game mechanic. I just hate it. It's an excuse to only design 1/3 of a civ, because each is stuck in one of three eras, and can't exist outside it. The erasure is incidental to the flawed concept, but makes it infinitely worse.

Apparently! Sadly(?) the usual construction around here masked it completely for me.

Can you name the truck with four wheel drive, smells like a steak, and seats thirty five? Canyonero! Canyonero!
