This should honestly be a legal requirement for discontinued products.

The first image with a bloodied air bag contrasted with kids stuffed animals in the glove box and armed masked law enforcement outside is frankly horrifying.

As a former architectural model maker, I absolutely confirm this. This makes this work so interesting :)
I often suggest that 3d artists should be watching what model makers do to help learn about level of detail and scale. They have a hard limit they cant go past and stops them going too far so they need to focuses on most important elements to sell the model. And as a fan of woodworking its amazing.

Properly shredding the ligaments on the outside of my ankle and foot skipping out of a house on the way to renovating a charity’s kitchen - one bad step that lead to me being on crutches for 2 months, 18 months physio and damage I can still see after a long walk over 30 years later.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

Does anybody in the #boardgame #ttrpg community have any recommendations for places to get boardgame components and boxes produced?
I'm UK based, and would prefer to avoid crazy postage/customs/tariff charges if possible.

It’s dry here, but sub zero.
I guess even with warmed paint it’s not the day for priming.

that's one of the most perplexing parts of all of this.
Venezuela might have a lot of oil but it's very poor quality and must be refined, which creates pollution on top of pollution. Meanwhile to even pay the money to put a drill in the ground isn't worth it because solar is now cheaper in every way

At 5.15pm GMT today, the Earth will be at perihelion, the closest point to the Sun in our annual round.
This should be the start of the year. Happy new orbit, everyone!
