Artemis II Part 1 or "My Moon Whip Brings All The Boys To The Yard"

The latest episode of Lauren and PJ Do Science is now live! PJ tells me all about the Artemis II mission, and I talk about my favorite episode of Ren and Stimpy, and explain why gravity is a social construct (sort of).

I love this album so much - i'm going to relisten to it now

got in my way

Slay the Spire 2 is going well - notice the pen nib is active so the hit was actually over 300 damage. Getting a forge card with replay on it really helped boost the damage.

remember, anyone could be a stand user.

Random Edit of the Day (3/6/26):
In celebration of the upcoming release of the G.I Samurai Blu-Ray, here's an updated version of a silly thing I made a few years ago:

Teenage Ninja Fighting School: R.A.D. Academy The last city, Bastion, is home to R.A.D. (Radical Athletic Division) Academy, where students train for a chance to participate in the Galactic Olympics. One small group of friends also fight to protect Bastion from evil superheroes. The big dance is coming up and a mysterious villain has plans to stop it! Can the young heroes find the villain and save the day?

The shortest life of a live service game is The Culling 2 at 8 days and Concord was 14 days. Highguard lasted 45 days. Concord was a funnier game death so I propose that as a unit of measurement for a failed live service game. Highguard lasted 3.21 Concords.

its true! I kinda wish we had done the whole thing but alas

We recorded a bit of that as a joke for RPPR slangdesign.com/rppr/2010/01...

"Artists peak at 30", "30 under 30", "by 30 you should" ridiculous. Arts industries capital craves young people to exploit and burn out. It doesn't want older artists thriving and guiding the young. It also doesn't want artists to exist. Stop letting cannibals tell you you only matter on a plate.

this is a great way to start my week. You're quite welcome!

"Now we know that our planet is slowly eroding beneath our feet... the future holds less hope than fear." That is a partial quote, since I don't have a keyboard to transcribe the rest, but you get the idea. -Ruts

"I wish I lived back in the 90s, where everyone was so much more jazzed and optimistic."

a digital collage with a pink, purple, green, yellow, and teal gradient overlaid on all the images. the images include a horse carrying a bucket, a cluster of mushrooms, a grub, a birds talon, a cicada, five spiders, two flower buds, a hand with an eye over the back of it, and a microscope slide of atoms. there is white text that reads "get weirder or die miserable." the background is black and there is a slightly grainy texture

get weirder 🫵
