Wrapping more tree trunks so I can just bead thru the week.

Any suggestions as to color scheme?

@kilroy All you really need is sour cream, sweetened condensed milk and some vanilla.

Once you transcend mortal junk food and taste ambrosia, the industrial stuff fails to seduce. We don't have a good name for the resultant product, you can call it Sour Cream Ice Cream, but that's recursive.

If you like FroYo, this is the version that gets Banned as Sinful.

Anyone else noticed that India has twice as many Aircraft Carrier Groups as Great Britain?

I kinda feel like that might be important, the way it was important that the imperial Japanese navy had a bunch of carriers. Good thing they signed a treaty saying they're never ever allowed aircraft carriers ever again ever.

Nevermind those helicopter cruisers. Nevermind an F-35 landed on one. Japan is Kawaii now, no threat at all.

Mmm.

Taste that?

It's the flavor of Cultural Imperialism.

My only real critique of the UN war in Korea against the north Koreans is that it traumatized the south Koreans so bad they cope by wrapping hotdogs in churros, complete with cinnamon sugar, then drown it in mayo and ketchup.

That's culinary PTSD.

In the time I've been gone I've:

Had COVID 5 times

Had 7 different jobs

Broken off all contact with my abusive family

Lost my Continental and fixed up a Mustang

and only attended One Furcon.

Lets hope '23 is gonna be a good year.

@kilroy Doing your own car maint. is crucial.

Especially when you're a romantic dumbass and have a fetish for lovable basket cases with frame rust, Ford Rot, and a previous owner who thought oil changes were optional.

Realizing how long it's been since I was on here from the last moniker I picked.

I haven't wired automation cabinets since early 2021. Need to come up with a new one.

A scene I made for @tsunderdog for Valentines Day.

It incorporates the first tree sculpture I made, since her request was a base plate for that tree.

The major innovation with this tree was the Cave, it's the second tree scene I've made with the Faerie Lights incorporated.

I'm very happy with how this one came out, it's visually stunning in person, the lights dance off the beads in hypnotic ways.

I've been working hard on a great many things while I was away from masto, and one of them is beaded bonsai.

This one's up for sale for $80, I just switched jobs and need some gas money for the meantime.

Weeping Cherry in pride flag colors, set in a Triumph clutch segment. If you like this one but want a different species of tree or different flag colors, I'll be posting some of the Other trees I've finished as examples.

It's been a while but I'm still alive.

Somehow.

Anyhow, have a picture of one of the CNC machines I had to clean.

Not a depression post, just wondering if anyone who cares about me still reads this.

Used to really like it here on mastodon, it was a comfort in hard times. Weird to see what's happened.

@lattera yes

Porting cast iron two stroke cylinders is a chore even when you have all the right tools.

Especially when you're trying to make it do something it's designers never intended.
