Much obliged.

Screenshot from the movie tje predator from 2018.
The one with keegan-michael key.
But its Not his beautiful self in this picture, it is an alpha predator.
There's like two Types now?
The predators we know, but they have human DNA and are smaller.
And the New, more jacked and mutated taller versions.
These Do Not have an honor Code like the small ones, so that makes them the Bad guys.
One of the big Dudes stands there, at night in Front of a building with a Single Light on.
He says something, and there are subtitles, but they are in an alien language.
Which was obvious from the wonky letters but still somehow needed pointing out because The English subtitles on the stream read "speaking in alien language".
Sorry for objecting to pointing out the pointing out.
And therefore also pointing sth out.

Kismet and cosmetics

Two posts above euch other.
Bottom came first, it is Beth with absolut fire makeup.
She has a dark red long haired wig on, a deep cut Black dress, and a Black choker.
Her makeup includes lipstick matched to the hair, dark eyelinder studded with pearls.
The bost above her is a quote by Susan sontag that reads "talking like touching. Writing like punching somebody."
Which is fitting, because beth writes.
Check her acc for her first piece.

Insert joke here about how i bought @deathbybadger.bsky.social 's great little book, and the pages are stuck together 😂
Go get yourself the pratchet-like ramblings of this funny guy in ISABELLA NAG AND THE POT OF BASIL

A book is shown here, half opened. Just a crack opened.
From the top.
IT opens without Problem, but verily, the last inch or so of the cutrent Page is stuck to the next one.
Is IT a manufacturing fault? Is it glue?
Or something Else entirely?
This reporter is too afraid to ask.
Anyway i am about 40% into this and enjoying myself a whole lot.
Thanks Oliver!

Yooo
@deathbybadger.bsky.social
Look what just arrived!
Been waiting excidedly for this one.

Picture of one shelf of a narrow ikea Billy shelf.
In the middle: the Front facing side of "Isabella nagg and the Pot of basil", a novel by Oliver darkshire.
The book is Flanked by a big Chrome candleholder on the right. On its wide Plattform Thrones a large skull.
Also Chrome, Naturally.
To the left, there is a small candle.
Yes, it is also a skull, but its smile is far more kind and the wax is blue and touquese.
Back of the shelf is filled with Star trek Novels, but only two can be glimpsed.
Dont be nosy, this is about the Isabella book.

The top Rock Haß a big White cross through it. Looks like the norwegen flag.
Bottom Rock Haß a streicht line with two vertikals, Looping like an H.

Forgot the picture.

Other members of the crew were seen freaking out because of the turbulence.

Post a ship that’s not Star Wars or Star Trek.

(USS Sulaco the Marine Carrier from the movie Aliens from 1986.)

The spaceship USS Sulaco from the Movie Alien 2.
In front of a galactical background of stars and swirling nebula, the Suloco looks like a sleak, long dagger in space.
Slim like a knife in design, the front stars more antenna that look like blades or space guns than you'll find in an entire knife block.
In the back we see a massive drive unit.
This is a Marine carrier, a military ship with a complement of devastiting troops and even more devastating nuclear bombs.
And they never talk about refueling, so I guess it's endless.
That, and the Marines.

Also.
Unten rechts siehst du diese Uhr mit dem roten Zeiger. Das ist der wasserdruck.
Der sollte bei mir bei 1,7 oder so sein.
Wenn der niedrig ist, fehlt Wasser und das kann man über den gartenschlauch unten nachfüllen (an BEIDEN enden vom Schlauch sind Ventile zum aufdrehen).
