okay it took a while to warm up to this as had an edible music but I think I'm okay channeling my inner Jain Zar right now

(okay just doing the wrist action to move a practice sword rapidly feels pretty good)

hmmm. I think this Lord Weird Slough Feg album is the awesomest thing in the world, it's making me want to get a crap ton of paint and build Corsairs or Harlequins or something

I'm not quite sure if FUCKING BADASS SPACE ELF SAILING THE WEBWAY is the mood I'm in right now?

Tonight’s , I’m real mixed about the dwarf mecha pic; maybe I should stay away from anything that looks vaguely modern military, it leaves sort of a bad taste. But then there’s only one way to find out if you like drawing something right?

all caps rant, trains 

"meaning this airplane here could cut cross country flight times in half" FOR FUCK'S SAKE A BULLET TRAIN IS VERY SLIGHTLY MORE AERODYNAMIC THAN A CAR AND YOU DON'T NEED TO DUMP FUEL INTO PUSHING IT INTO THE AIR THEN LANDING IT JUST BUILD A FUCKING CROSS COUNTRY TRAIN I BEG YOU

oh no I found a video of 2025 Scale Model World and NOW instead of fantasizing about weird kink or a huge bowl of noodle soup I want to get on a train and see cool models and maybe even buy model kits I shouldn't buy.

luckily there's an IPMS show locally in April. I just have to survive that long.

so earlier today I said Dark Sun and Ravenloft are great settings but not really D&D - Dark Sun might be Fate since it's all about shifting conditions and weird talents more than your gear, I wasn't sure about Ravenloft.

Then I realized Spelljammer is not just D&D but 4e. Weird talents and powerful monsters are streamlined to everyone's special action each round and it's vital to know where you are aboard a ship.

equivalent to creating a farmer's market so people with 3d printers could sell stuff they printed, and yeah you figured there'd be some crossover with selling wood stuff cut with a bandsaw, but saying it's a farmers market means there are now buskers and people selling PRODUCE and you just CAN'T.

Keeping Hitler’s brain alive in a jar, keeping Trump’s brain alive in a McDonald’s wrapper

I didn't know about this track, and *now* I want to jump across the void of space to board a Githyanki astral skiff, runesword howling in my grasp

next thought; glueing googly eyes on the outside of a brain jar, with or without using sharpie to draw in surprised eyebrows

1. you can sing "brain in a jar" to "karma police"

2. keeping Hitler's brain alive in a jar, only to make sure people recognize him, there's a little mustache glued on the outside of the jar

Rant: this is going to sound crazy but I think AI generated images hit an uncanny valley in an existential sense, far more than a literal one. 

I want things to be clearly real or clearly fiction, I think, as part of touching the world. I desperately want f'rex a mother wolf carrying her pup away from sleeping next to a human to be a very real miracle out there, but if it's obviously something else someone made, that connects me to THEM, to whatever humans also want this miracle to be real enough to paint or animate it. There's no FACT, but there's TRUTH.

Photorealistic AI makes not fiction but LIES. Someone wants me to believe in their video, in turn built using plagarism we're told isn't, and the benefit of a cute animal vid is nothing compared to the ecological and health costs. If you can get me to believe a lie about wolves, maybe you can get me to believe lies about let's say AIDS, Jews, or American history. Given that I grew up being lied to about AIDS, Jews and American history that's a sore nerve. I'm 8 or 10 or 15 again, and the adult world has found another convenient lie for me to believe in.

Does any of this make sense?

My opinions about The Thing I Can't Talk About continue moving further and further left but they aren't where what I feel is accepted and encouraged.

Also, I don't feel wanted in the No Kings protests and I now feel perfectly justified in skipping out on the next one. So at least *that's* progress.

emailed rep and senators about H Res 38 (Massie-Khanna) and the Make Billionaires Pay Their Fair Share Act (Sanders-Khanna). I know there's no chance of either making it through let alone both, but it's worth trying

turns out there’s a local company which does flooring called Wanke Cascade, which my brain keeps reading as Advanced Wank Crusade™️, game of grimdark masturbation in a far future

ah yes chickpea kale and toasted rice salad from Trader Joe’s, truly the fragmentation grenade of healthy lunches

oh yeah it's my favorite IM track, "I Forgot How Much Acid I Took (Now That's a Problem)" with DJ Astrix

(Sammi is the only person who's gonna laugh at this tho and she's probably not gonna see it)
