Animal of the day (013)

Plushie stuck in a tree? Almost, but nope; the Southern Greater Glider is very real, and one of the largest gliding mammals. Native to the forests of southeastern Australia, this nocturnal marsupial gets about the size of a housecat, with a tail that reaches 2 feet in length. Although its gliding membrane only stretches from the forearm to the tibia, it can glide for an impressive 100 meters, tucking its forepaws under its chin in the process. It is the quiet type, with no vocalization that we know of. Babies stay in their mother's pouch for the first few months, after which they'll ride their mum's back for another three months.

okay that was a 55 minute long Teams interview

“Can I retire at 65 with 2.5 million?”

That headline is a little like “can I become part of an elite interplanetary peacekeeping force if I can just manage to get a gem implanted in my hand by a dying alien?”

Drawing adventurers in an evil(?) temple, and my visual language is Buddhist sculpture plus Catholic altars… and of course there’s a ner tamid, don’t all temples have one? I did get my first D&D stuff with money from my Bar Mitzvah after all.

Well… nothing on SAP but B&N do have books on QuickBooks and one general book on accounting. Right now though I need coffee.

Anyway here are from earlier today with a little touch up right now. Duergar or chaos dwarves or something (excuse for weird armor), and more fantasy architecture, ogre or hill giant hall and an infernal fortress.

re: goings-out 

@topaz Maybe pretty used to the idea of medication being prescription that it's hard to remember OTC stuff is a thing too?

@topaz Hopefully tomorrow you can take it a little easier, and slam ibuprofen tonight

apparently the offshoot of earlier crankiness about country is exploring more songs by Goodnight Texas than just the Metallica cover, and it turns out that yeah, holy crap they're good. They're listed as "folk rock" rather than country, which would actually put 'em in the same category as All Them Witches, one of my favorite groups ever.

@chimerror heh, and my introduction to "Coat of Many Colors" was the time I told a friend I'd gotten the best country song ever and they suggested "Coat." (It's a great song, but the best is still "On the Road Again".)

@chimerror "one of the top requested songs of all time" yeah, well that's because The Gambler is one of the better songs written

@chimerror *reads down to "Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton" and breathes an audible sigh of relief*

Gotta say it's real weird coming out of a childhood where Dolly was kind of a joke because of her huge whammers, into an adulthood where she's upheld as this saint, and somewhere in there actually discovering I sincerely like her music.

@Chiaroscuro I’m still resentful of the country concert for which I worked concert security, in which they managed to strike the wrong leftist transplanted Queer nerves AND by playing a fiddle at this horrible dirgelike pace, offended me to my hick core.

every time Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton make me think yeah actually I like country, invariably I wind up somewhere having to listen to the stuff and man, it makes me want to break F150 windows, torch flags, and move to Nairobi or some other place where I'd never need to hear it again.

@LexYeen I HAD thought about Hellboy punching a strangely familiar bloated zombie with a huge blond foof of hair and an obvious swastika armband but such a presentation seems a little too dignified.

@LexYeen I'm torn between using this as an excuse to draw a Kriegsaffe and saying "Nazis are too much the arch-villain for Hellboy and Indiana Jones, I want to go a different direction."
