This is supposed to be a clinically useful insight from the Lacanian school of psychoanalysis.

I believe It is primarily used to convince people that they’ve had a stroke.

As much as I rag on psychoanalysis in general, Lacanism is a whole other level of nonsense.

If I had a fleet if ships to protect I would simply not use them to launch cruise missiles at civilian targets.

Finally finished it. Originally bought this Battlestar Pegasus kit a decade ago, but didn’t start building it until summer. Overall very happy the result. Painting w/brush enamels was difficult and tedious. An acrylic airbrush is in the cards for future projects.

What breaking of day?
What stream used to flow here?
And now what dusty decay

I do wonder if the person charging him 2 million a year for chronic blood transfusions mentioned the long term risks? Tends to cause chronic inflammation. This is not a benign procedure. As a longevity treatment it’s never been validated in humans - it is based on a couple rodent studies.

Legit one of the funkiest watches I’ve seen. Sort of love it.
