This should be an unlikely line of dialogue to stick with me so long that it's become part of our family language, but Lis is flying back from SF and was careful to report the moment Klamath was to the east.

Waiting to get my hair cut, awkwardly trying not to stare at Rory Scovel who is getting his hair cut mere feet away. White knuckles. Inventing reasons to look across the room at an imaginary clock so I can glimpse him on the way.
His haircut finished, I dare to make eye contact. 0% Rory Scovel.

A dad on patrol this morning is showing off his new egregiously expensive ice-fishing boots that he justified “because I’m standing out here all the time.” Dudes are going to continue rocking until morale improves

It's 27 degrees out. The only thing left to do is listen for the crackle of frost on eyelashes, and then a long, peaceful sleep.
Well, I could make tea.

#KingdomDeath The King's Man sucks. Got all my survival actions, lots of armor, good weapons, headband, and circlet, to run into King's Step RNG every time. This game's tables are brutal, but this table takes 40 minutes to get through to "lol just die".

Hey #miniaturepainting Usians, where are you getting your weasel brushes these days? Rosemary and Co won't play.

My wife has kindly offered to drive the kid to speech therapy, because it's foggy and full of monsters. I've consigned 2/3 of the family to monsters, and hope to be able to live with this.
It's possible there aren't monsters and I'm just a timid driver. Open mind.

In #KingdomDeath, an Abomination came to take names and cut off faces! A super-group of Thor, Mysterio, Kraven, and the sensational Squirrel Girl faced him down and beat his ass.
Deathblow was a perfect hit Mighty Strike bone dart, so +2 STR! — versus the Breastplate, +2 TGH. Bleh. Success anyway.

It’s Dark NYC III! This time the Brotherhood hunted the eeevil Miss Marvel for three years. This run is going well, either because I didn’t Innovate til I had more weapons, or because the card text is microscopic and I used Toughness 6 from the prologue lion. Ugh. Reading is hard in #KingdomDeath

#KingdomDeath again this evening. It started off strong with three successive turns of crits by my fisty guy. Then from turns 6 to 18, I did not score a single hit. Not failed to wound, did not hit!
Only Black Widow remained, defiant til the end, at which time the mayor of NYC ate her head. Boo.

I will admit to a limited palate, but I’ve watched and enjoyed this whole season of competitive cooking for a finale of intestine salad plus fried blood, versus wobbly tofu globs. ACK
It’s so goblin. “Today’s grub’s squirmy guts, topped wif a splodge of oily bloodyuck! One per customer.”

I dusted off #KingdomDeath for some solo gaming fun. It’s been awhile since I last played, so in year 1 I did not make bone darts before hunting a white lion, ran straight into Ground Fighting, and TPK. Welcome back, survivor!

Putting protesters down as paid agitators and "radical far left lunatics" sounds like minimizing the threat to political power, but to everyone not hiding in a closet, it seems more like they don't know things.

“We use AI for inspiration!” says someone who is not routinely inspired by everything. Inspiration is not the hard part. Artists are what inspiration lands on when the universe exhales. I OBS something twice a day when I’m not looking for anything.
I realize I’ve made this point. It’s just insane.

Keep hearing devs say that they only use ai for "pre-concept art"
There is no pre-concept art. There is concept art. That's where the idea starts. With the concept.

Just finished Fallout S1 with Lis, so the second time for me. I had to stop to explain to her my joy of seeing that deathclaw skull the first time — after having played every game since the 90s, watching the whole season loving how right they got it — and here’s goddamn New Vegas. Awesome.

I'm cramming on this rig through the last moments of holiday break, before I need to put it back down. Tonight I finished the lip seal and roll, and very quick puff/hollow blendshapes. Bugs abound. She chews OK though.
