Susie Derkins lives in my pocket. She's got a lot of complaints, but refuses to move out.

It's old news that WotC did a piss poor job of digitizing and republishing old TSR material, but this still irritates me. I'm prepping Descent to the Depths of the Earth right now, and they cut so much out of the margins that the maps are missing full corridors. Thank god for piracy.
Pirated crop of the lair of the trogdolytes. Shows a narrow corridor in the margins of the map, connecting two large spaces. Official Wizards of the Coast copy of the same map. The corridor has been completely cropped, leaving the two large spaces disconnected from each other.

Oh thank god I'm not alone.
Ebook screenshot which reads: "A Foreword by William Gibson Samuel Delany's Dhalgren is a prose-city, a labyrinth, a vast construct the reader learns to enter by any one of a multiplicity of doors. Once established in memory, it comes to have the feel of a climate, a season. It turns there, on the mind's horizon, exerting its own peculiar gravity, a tidal force urging the reader's re-entry. It is a literary singularity. It is a work of sustained conceptual daring, executed by the most remarkable prose stylist to have emerged from the culture of American science fiction. I have never understood it."

Equipped with my official Bremerton Community Theatre Sippy Cup, I am now entitled to drink wine in the performance hall. It's called the privileges of rank, peasants.

Crazy setting. Wild imaginations on these fellas.
Screenshot of wikipedia. Setting: the bionic commando universe is set in a timeline in which nazisim is not completely eradicated following world war ii.

My dumpster photos study is over, but I still get excited when I see a good dumpster.

Quick snap out of a train window.
A junkyard framed by a U of foliage, with gray concrete structures rise up in the background.

The skeleton at the bottom of the well, viewed through a red-tint. The skeleton is refracted into 3 images. It no longer has gems in its eyes, but it still has a wicked expression on its face.

This toy was omnipresent in my childhood, yet somehow this is the first time I've ever encountered a name for it.
A plastic jug of thistle blocks. Those plastic blocks with dense pegs on all side that you can press together.
