but what we REALLY want to know is which Primarch had the best tits

Sanguinus is probably too obvious

the existence of Jack in the Box, Dairy Queen and Burger King implies the existence of an Ace themed fast food chain

Playing “Spybreak” while alone in the office is a great way to figure out if your office is big enough to do a cartwheel (I’m usually alone here and no, I stopped before I kicked anything).

@Ylfingr I like it! It takes a little while to figure out what's going on, so "slightly surreal tagging which, on closer inspection, references Norse myth" seems way more like Oakland/like the Oakland I want than Bible quote stickers.

I am surprised to find that - outside of two incidents in which victorious Hussites were complete bastards to everyone, Jews included - my usual expectation of medieval Europe and what we're told about it doesn't actually apply to the Hussite Wars. And I can therefore persist in oversimplifying them, of course.

today wasn’t intended as vent art - originally I’d wanted to draw a ghoul lord inviting a wizard to an apparently feast, and she’d dispel the illusion to reveal body parts and entrails. This isn’t my usual deal. CW for drawn parts of corpses.

occasionally I think I'm superhuman right up until something triggers me and it's ridiculously easy to trigger me.

@erin_kitsune points out that I'm not human, but then neither's Superman and *he's* described as superhuman.

re: The Wild Robot, thoughts and some spoilers 

@Kusimanse It's BEAUTIFUL. Also, stay for the credits; there's a little outtake at the end but the credits themselves have little animations of the animals.

VAUBAN! is the onomatopoeia for “constructing a star fort for siege warfare,” which is why it doesn’t surface in comics very often.

“This is dedicated to those who take fate into thei” my dudes you aren’t Elevating the Human Spirit on Our Way to the Stars, you’re selling pricey cars to people who can’t figure out turn signals.

trying to remember there's no duality and so sadness over people I'm no longer in touch with online - and I often fear the worst - and days past, *can* coexist with good things now and even good days ahead.

The Wild Robot, thoughts and some spoilers 

So I got to see The Wild Robot. Visually it's gorgeous, and predictably I wound up weeping at points, but the story's kind of disjointed. It's sort of like Dreamworks trying to make a Studio Ghibli film so there are places they pull punches and it feels disingenuous where a Miyazaki film would hurt like hell.

The initial storyline about a stranded robot and her fox companion moving from taking care of an orphaned gosling until he can survive by migrating during the winter REALLY works. The robot's just seeking a meaningful task, the fox trying a new scam, and the gosling is limited by being a runt, and all of them actually grow beyond their "programming."

Then there's an added storyline about the gosling becoming some sort of brave goose leader and the island's animals joining together during a terrible snowstorm, then to help the robot fight agents of her less than altruistic manufacturer when they come to retrieve her, and afterwards the animals are united by those experiences, and it's just a little *too* happy an ending and sort of misses with me if that makes sense.

@CoyoteTraveller noodles were pretty good, haven't tried the pork chops yet!

made enough spicy noodles with bok choy for a lunch later this week and most of lunch/breakfast today. Baked a couple of breaded pork chops for later.

plan now is to take a nap, watch a movie intended for a much younger audience and probably cry about it, idk about the rest of the evening.
