"Should I bring some beers for boardgame night?"

Star Girl ⭐

Hamburger, potatoes and veggies, beer (and some more beer), a smoke... I feel better. Like, I can handle the evening heat. 🍺 Or tomorrow. 😎 Not both. 😂

Tried the magic option (Vallejo Retarder Medium/Vallejo Glaze Medium/Instar Water+) to no avail, too hot to paint without struggling with brushes gumming up every three strokes, or paint leaving coffee stains in the blink of and eye. Painting season is over. It's assemblying and priming until fall.

I don't have words anymore. Can't find the rationale behind this. It's not even corporate greed anylonger, seems more and more pure spite and malice against other humans. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/u...

This. Is. Amazing.

The star of the show. (Literally)

Loved assemblying this kit, a freaking nightmare to pose (joints straining under the weight of the parts) and take photos - small light box and lousy camera skills. Maybe a dot or two of glue... waist joint mostly. Oh well, a Cielnova [grey] Custom Space Type. 😎 #gunpla #bandai #30minuteissions

Snail for ren faire

So, I hit the gym after like... 8 years? Well, since early 2017. After that health issues, Covid, and other misfortunes had priority. I'm at the same time hideously out of shape (as in literal body shape 😂), and surprisingly in good shape (strenght/endurance). Not even an ouchie. 🤔

Ahahahah the cryptocurrency sponsor at the parade, WTF?? 😂😂😂

It seems I've entered the season in which my sustainment is made out of salad, cold beer, iced coffe, gelato, and the occasional pizza. The heat level out there is no fun at all. 🥵

In 1993 I was coming home from a long day worth of chemistry labs, when I bumped into Cesare Romiti, then CEO of FIAT, in Viale Indipendenza (Bologna). And with bumped, I mean shoulder slammed him. "Watch your step, old man" Did not slow my pace, and slipped away before security could grasp me.
