I really hate it when people prove my worst assumptions. Right now I'm feeling like I should delete my Bluesky but eh, where else is there? Here is equally hostile, no way am I going back to X, and there's a good chance the reply I got (and the account it's from) is a bot or someone so innately sanctimonious and bigoted their opinion isn't worth consideration. So I'll probably keep it around.

Part of what interests me about zoology, archaeology, and old industrial stuff is; these animals, societies, and bits of tech are designed to do many of the same things we have, and maybe it's not as fast or efficient, but they do it pretty well. That's interesting of itself and a nice counter to this idea that what's being pushed now is better than anything before and you must run out and buy it if you've not got one already, sort of a capitalist rephrase of Victorian elitism.

*falls over for 6 hours*

friend asked if I had any tips for drawing expressions and I suggested loosely caricaturing eye and mouth shapes from pausing videos

which led to rewatching "Low Self Opinion," I once drew off it for the angry facial expressions on a pair of Buddhist door guardians

and immediately the urge to respond "look, it's the liar! Liar, liar!" People who survived the 90s will get it.

re: food!! that we cooked! 

@frost Congrats! I've never tried making tuna noodle casserole. How'd it taste?

coyote sing along hour, filk 

yep, first Danny Elfman track of the season

making Christmas, making Christmas, la la la!
it's almost here and we can't wait
so drop your pants and masturbate
cause when the full moon starts to shine
we'll all sing out, it's Christmastime!
hee hee hee hee hee!

@joabaldwin oh hell yeah. I was thinking you were gonna post javelina photos or something.

I dunno. I would totally get in the ring with Mike Tyson, because even if I lasted only a few seconds, getting to say I faced THE legend would be worth it, you know? Admittedly one of my proudest achievements is an Olympic fencer wiped the floor with me, once.

see racism in 40K is like; Necrons think you're primitive, Tau think you're CHARMINGLY primitive, humans think you're scarily anathema, and Aeldari think you're loud and declasse, which is something coming from the species which invented Glam Rock millenia before everyone else. Orks think you're punchable and edible, but they think everyone's punchable and edible, similarly to how the Drukhari are very open minded about torture victims.

Okay to be fair I should NOT make fun of 40K outfits given *my* chosen faction, Airmobile Snooty Bigots, loves wearing excuses to paint gems. “I NEED more cloisonné pins on my armor Celeduil. Otherwise Slaanesh will get me.”

Yes WH40K, what I’d REALLY want is a big metal blood drop hanging right where it can get caught in my skirt armor and screw with moving my leg. Also please make the gorget bigger it’s not enough of a “shot trap.”

Now imagining Firstborn complaining about Primaris. “The kids don’t even run into battle with only an angry grimace protecting their heads anymore. Back in MY day we just kinda randomly fired our bolters at nothing in particular with bisexual lighting, and we liked it just FINE.“

Have you ever considered Fabius Bile is WH40K’s version of Uncle Fester? Artist rendition. Only now with bonus FABIO BILE, like nobody asked for.

okay embarrassing admission time;

* a favorite Beatles track to sing is "You Can't Do That" which is one of their Horrifying Sexism But Make It Incredibly Catchy songs.

* while singing it in the shower I tend to lean in towards the showerhead like Paul and George leaning in towards the microphone.

@Tuftears I figure the orcs are a little more woodsy and have big tough teeth so a good "primitive-but-not-really" look would be to have more advanced ropes, basketwork etc.

@Tuftears Thanks! He's got something a little like a fairly coarse straw rain-cape, with little stone amulets sewn on.

I think Trump's cabinet appointments are a loyalty test. He wants to find any opposition he can eliminate in office, and obviously he owns his appointees; he would without him doing them the favor.

@frost This gets into stuff I don't know about tbh. Hope it works out!
