Someone looking at a gravestone says "I miss you dad. I wish I got more time with you." The ground around the grave begins to shift. "Oh my god" says the speaker. A hand emerges from the dirt. A thin, bald man with a long protuberance of a nose, soaking wet, pulls himself from the dirt proclaiming "why yes, it is I, Wet Nude Steve. You've caught me while I've been out tunneling around, experiencing worm pleasures. One of my naughtiest indulgences. Perhaps you would like to explore with me?"

I Miss You Dad

“Come, child. Come with us to a magical place. BANISH YOUR TEARS, FOR THEY SUMMON THE MAD MALLARD.”

Andor was great not because it drew from history to create a grounded portrayal of insurgency but because it offered a full 360 degree mothma for the first time

30+ years of Star Wars games has conditioned me to believe that Mon Mothma only exists at this angle.

I had some kind of post halfway formulated but then started imagining Gollum singing My Heart Will Go On and going I sees you I feels you and I smiled so hard that I forgot what the original post was

Kathleen Hanna and MCA sitting on a couch with the following text in front of them: Feminist musician Kathleen Hanna from the band 'Bikini Unalive' didn't want marriage. But she & Adrock from Beastie Boys got married because Kathleen needed health insurance

On TikTok, you have to refer to Kathleen Hanna’s band as “Bikini Unalive.” I think society is cooked and we need to destroy the internet.

Had to look up a vindicator and I can see that thinking now.

More flock needed in that case. And/or basing grit.

Tbf, if you look where he's standing it looks like they're on a sloping bank, if you tilt your phone so that ground in view looks level you get a fair idea how much taller BB was.
I'll have to rewatch it to remind myself if the dwarf/giant thing is better or worse than Dungeons & Dragons (2000) was.

I mean, yeah, that does sound good, but also a lot more work than I'd planned. Still several other tanks/turrets I could do that on when I have more oomph though.

I've only just got into magnetizing bases, God help me if I start putting magnets on gun/arm mounts.

I just know if it had a barrel that long I'd snag it on something or knock it off. Going to use it for SOMETHING ludicrous at some point though.

Went with this in the end. Also primed an ork building while I was at it. Taking it easy today and not pushing myself as still got stuff to do later. Still no idea where my limits are/what I can manage without flaring up.

A 90s retro 40k style tank, now with a gun barrel roughly as long as the actual tank.

The same tank but now with a gunplay mini gun about double the length of the tank. I would definitely need to weigh down the back of the tank if I went with this, to stop the back wheels lifting.

The tank now with TWO front barrels, one stubby cannon and one plasma thingummy. Nicely ludicrous but not unbalanced.

The tank now has another two barrels on the front, both cannons of some kind. This may be the one, though I'll need to cut them a bit so they're not both pointing up at 45°

Wondering whether to go with the stock barrel @doctorspork.bsky.social designed or to go with something even sillier.

I appear to have this stuck in my head this morning.
I'm taking it as a sign I need to go stick something on the stereo. Not sure whether to continue with tmbg for the morning or choose something different.

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Because you can't steal $200 million from a $20 million ad

Off the top of my head, Franchisteining feels appropriate.

For years we found them “laughable” or some kind of embarrassment. But when you see YEARS of drip drip stories put into one beautifully written piece… oh my god.

A recently punctured forearm, with a cotton wool ball held in place on the inside of the elbow with surgical tape.

Just been punctured for further testing. Had a decent night though so fingers crossed for the rest of the day.

They're holding that blowtorch so close to the nozzle it's making me nervous for them.

Well yes I know that, I just meant from that picture, if you didn't know any of the characters, you'd probably have trouble identifying the 'giant'. Or indeed, throughout much of the film.

Remind me, which one's the giant again?

According to some reports, Stephen King and other famous names are in there. I sincerely hope the people with money and lawyers take Grammarly to hell over this.

Did a chicken name this townland?

8 panel comic P1: Mario runs and jumps at a floating question mark box, punching it from below with his left fist. A panicked looking mushroom pops out from a hole at the top of the box P2: as he lands, Mario snatches the mushroom from the air with his tongue P3: rubbing his belly with his right hand in satisfaction, Mario says "delizioso" P4: a close up of Mario's happy, satisfied face-- P5: --only for his eyes to bug out as his face turns a sickly shade of green, a bit of drool hangs from under his lip slug P6: a distant shot of a verdant field, hills in the distance P7: the same, only now annominous green glow forms on the horizon, causing birds to fly away in fright P8: we close in on that spot, as Mario suddenly Tetsuos into a gargantuan abomination

I've had a look here and the only one I get is the fatigue, certainly no hypermobility or easy bruising or the like.

Well I've had lots of different tests but nothing's come up positive so at this point everyone's just going "Well that just leaves Fibro, really"
Just hope it won't take long to get seen by the pain meds people, as it's been a year like this so far :/

Similar, only it's "Well we've ruled everything else out so that just leaves Fibro"
"or long covid?"
"Possibly. Or perhaps CFS. But probably Fibro."
