hot take; although Conan the Barbarian is a better movie than Conan the Destroyer, Conan the Destroyer is WAY more of a D&D movie.

#drawing today. I figured it was the supermoon, so you get more werewolves; the faces yesterday felt like they worked okay so I wanted to push that a little further.

Food photo. Such a big tzimmis to make my own deli food.

As opposed to a pumpkin SPACE latte, which comes in a tube that you can suck through for ZeroG conditions

At the end of the movie Zulu (probably hugely problematic; has only a faint resemblance to the battle of Roarke’s Drift; was on tv a lot when I was a kid, I still love it) there’s this blurb about how 11 men in that action won the VC out of 1000+ VC Awards in the prior century (this in 1964ish).

So… averages out to 10+ VC winners annually. Even assuming some years (1914, 1940, etc) are going to be unusually heavy, that’s a LOT of wars Britain’s been in over that time period.

Since the most British media includes charming animals, the pastoral countryside, mysteries and the Blitz/finest hour we can logically conclude the most British show ever would be Watership Down in the 20s/30s but with locked-warren murders, and then RAF bunnies.

And then of course the daleks would show up.

Ahem.

A WOLF SHALL DEVOUR THE SUN AND THIS WILL BE CONSIDERED A GREAT MISFORTUNE! A SECOND WOLF SHALL DEVOUR THE MOON AND THIS TOO SHALL DO GREAT MISCHIEF! A SWORD DAY, A RED DAY, ERE THE SUN’S RISING!

that was a nasty little mood spike of "the 90s are long gone and I am old and somehow here"

I'm gettin' even more famous by the hour
I'm stuffed with pastries and I'm drunk with power
now they're puttin' up my statue by the Eiffel Tower

#drawing for Werewolf Wednesday.

“Ah, excuse me. Poirot was in the water closet, ‘ow do you say? Ettouflet son poulet. Fesset le guenon. Making his special Béchamel sauce.”

en blodiger arm!

Okay I’m apparently NOT up for “Iron & Wine” singing about death. Let’s go back to “Garmarna.”

Listening to “Garmarna” this morning has been great for thumbnailing what draugr and valraven look like.

damnit Robert Smith is making me want to run around Discovery Park and/or play WtA, again. Although actually I fess up I’d sorta like to play Changeling more.

It’s weird that someone’d have “I vote for Democrats” as a bumper sticker. It’s like “I don’t gargle broken glass” or “I don’t intentionally slam my fingers in the car door (and pay extravagantly for it).”

bleah, it's another "fall over and could sleep through the battle of Kursk next door/2-3 hours later I'm wide awake" night

Finished a #drawing from Friday and redid a drawing from last month.
