Ugh. I am beginning to think that being awake is a bit too much like being awake.

<sees Stephen Miller, NATO and the CDC trending> So, what fresh new hell have I awoken to today...? I mean, that's like maybe three out of the four Horsemen... That said, one could probably argue that Miller is all of them rolled into one. I'm sure he'd like that.

Call me a philistine if you wish but mozzarella on toast is delicious. It's also the business on crumpets.

Maybe @kayelem23.bsky.social will stop nagging me about those two crusts and the cheese that needs eating now...

Thank you Internet of Stupid. Tidying up a photo of a Lego droid minifigure and my brain will not stop giving me "Buttbuttination Droid" as I type the filename, like it's digging me in the ribs and whispering "Go on..." No.

<gives the Yorkshire weather a really hard stare> I mean, I know that there is a 50% chance of rain on any given day here but come on.

So who's stupid idea was it to take photos of every single one of my DIY minifigs and then determinedly edit out every single speck of dust from every single one because autism?

Actually, I think I might have answered my own question there...

Well done, people of New York! (Except Staten Island, obviously). And all the other people who've elected Dems in various places. Maybe now more people will get the idea that, if you do vote, you really can change things. And I hope politicians out here in the rest of the world take note.

I'm not sure I have adequate quantities of This for... this. Why can we not have stuff that works, doesn't require a bullshit subscription, and doesn't have 'AI' forced into it for no good reason? And we're supposed to pay through the nose for this garbage, too. I'll stick with old stuff that works.

Yay for the start of November in the UK 😒 It's 1:44 of the a.m. and some oik is still letting off fireworks. I swear it gets to like the middle of October and it starts to sound like WW3 commencing before it's even dark, every damn day through to mid November.

Since I've been crap and still don't have anything new to post, I guess a half-hearted attempt to join in with spooky season will have to do. So, here's one I made earlier... (no sticky-backed plastic or loo-roll tubes, though)

It's #MinifigMonday and, for entry no. 10 (!), the theme is love, if a little twisted and monochromatic. Spooky Boy and Spooky Girl have a date in the haunted old cemetery. He's brought flowers but is nervous as she's a little older than him and rather serious. #Lego #AFOL #MOC #MyOwnCreation #Goth

Happy #CrispSandwichDay to all who celebrate!

Yes, I know, it's brown bread and there's cheese in there. I don't care 😜 And no, I did not actually eat it in there as
I have a 'no food in the #Lego room' policy.

Merry Crispmas!

Okay, better late than never, this week's #MinifigMonday whisks us off the sands of Persia, where a group of intrepid travellers has stopped to rest at a lush oasis. The antithesis of last week's environmental disaster. #Lego #AFOL #MOC #MyOwnCreation #PrinceOfPersia

Eek 30+ notifs. Sorry I've not replied to anyone this last couple of weeks. Been majorly stressed, which tends to make me retreat from the world. I will get back to anyone who commented on the last two Lego posts. I posted stuff then zonked out, lost my momentum. Been crazy tired, damn fibro.

It's #MinifigMonday (again!?) and this time there's more than just autumn leaves in the air. In fact the air probably contains a number of things no sensible minifig would want any part of. I'm not sure this team is entirely sensible, though. #Lego #AFOL #MOC #MyOwnCreation #Hazmat #ToxicWaste

It's that time again and for this week's #MinifigMonday we're enjoying the outdoors and doing a spot of gardening with the Collectable Minifigure Gardener. Nancy G. Roman has popped over to see her neighbour and catch up on all the latest gossip.

Ugh. Guess who fell asleep while editing photos...

I'll get there. Eventually.

Plants.

Again.

🙄

(But no crazy trees, just probably crazy everything else if I ask Kayelem)

In this week's episode of How did it take me so long to get this #MinifigMonday diorama done and posted, we're off to the Soap 'n' Suds Sunshine Laundrette. A relatively simple one, this time. Why the Sun-thing? I dunno, I just thought it was neat.

AAAAGGHH! I need a clean room for lego. I swear the specks of dust sneak in after the photo has been taken! They must hide behind a molecule, or something.

🤬

Yay, new heavy transport plane detecting skill unlocked! FL230, about four nm away. Okay, not military, but still. I swear it woke me up even though it wasn't LOUD loud.
