As seen on anitwitter since 2009, departed those accursed shores for this new land. Anime, international relations, history, home decor, outdoors, scifi, TTRPGs, Pittsburgh & Western PA, a timeline veering wildly. Too old to blog, too young to die
“Do not speak to me or my trash ever again.”

The elongated, snake-like fish is shown half-emerged from water with its head raised and mouth slightly open. It has a dark upper body and lighter underside with visible gill slits near the head. Surrounding the eel are detailed reeds and grasses, indicating a marshy or riverbank habitat. The image combines fine line work and muted color tones typical of 19th-century scientific plates, emphasizing anatomical features for educational purposes. The plate number "18" is visible in the upper right corner.

Someone was very ambitious when we played with the ribbon toy today, leaping like a pony and trying to drag it into a tree like a cheetah. Now he's passed out, satisfied that he's the true apex predator around here.

It is so attractive to vandals—particularly arsonists—that in the previous 59 years, only 17 goats have survived fully intact. Good luck in 2025, Gävlebocken!

I’m wondering which of my things that nibbling sound is coming from, which book's destruction is the source of that chewing noise, and quite at a loss for what to do — when out of nowhere I spot a vicious-looking cat, eyes blazing, tail lashing, gaze fixed on something I can’t see, and I hold my breath and watch as it darts forward, quick as the wind, and with a piteous squeak that little critter is gone for good — — ahhhh, you love to see it.

Rummaging through some old chests after dinner for lack of anything better to do, I discover dozens of unpaid promissory notes, more than a hundred maybe, from borrowers variously living and dead, and uniformly unlikely to repay, and so when nobody's looking I pile them together higgledy-piggledy, set them on fire, burn them clean away, and then look up at the sky, where they leave not even a cloud behind — — if that's not a good feeling, I don't know what is.
冬夜飲酒,轉復寒甚,推窗試看,雪大如手,已積三四寸矣 —— 不亦快哉! Drinking on a winter's night, I feel a sudden sharp chill and push open the window to see snow falling in flakes the size of my hand, three or four inches deep already — — if that isn't nice, I don't know what is. 夏日於硃紅盤中,自拔快刀,切綠沉西瓜 —— 不亦快哉! On a summer’s day, take a sharp knife, slice up a bright green watermelon, and set it out on a deep vermilion plate — — Well!

Startled awake, I ask who. It turns out to be the schemingest bastard in town — — if that doesn’t cheer you up, nothing will.

Photo of a Stormcast Eternal Liberator model. The color palette is based on the Celestial Vindicators Stormhost, but it’s strongly influenced by Horus Heresy-Era Alpha Legion Astartes colors.

This is most of the basecoats, but there’s still a coupla bits to cover & touchup before shading/washing.
