Each Roman Pantheon column weighs as much as an A320 AirBus. That's 42,000 kg (92,500 lbs). Damn. There are 16 columns. Each was made with "Roman Concrete," which, in my opinion, was actually an amped up version of Etruscan technology.

Feeling pretty good about finishing the first draft on a new book this week.

I started writing the first draft of a new kids' chapter book recently.

Lately, I've been learning the Unreal Engine 5 game engine.

I am studying some new books I picked up over the weekend; I need some inspo for new work.

Aaaaaahhhhhhh, I need to figure out this "writing" thing, after all.

Is there a #gaming community on BlueSky? I would love to check out other game devs and game designers. Get some inspiration. Learn and grow. All the good stuff.

I'm excited for new Nintendo titles, but I'm not excited about needing a new console + title costs...

This isn’t the most eloquent way to express it, but thank fuck for the arts

Thank fuck for books
Thank fuck for drawing and painting
Thank fuck for movies
Thank fuck for video games

Thank fuck for all the creatives out there who will help us cope the next 4 years whether by escapism or a rally cry

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

It's the little things. Microdose hope.

I would rather have been wrong. 💔

State Department Travel Safety Website Changes "LGBTQI+ Travelers" to "LGB Travelers" The change is an attempt to insert a divide in the LGBTQIA+ community by the Trump administration, and to erase transgender people from any consideration or recognition.

1. The state department has removed transgender people from its website and just reads "LGB Travelers," as reported by a number of journalists.

However, on further investigation, it is also removing trans-specific directions for individual countries.

real quick message for the bigoted transphobes, everyone who enabled them, and everyone who couldn’t be bothered to lift a finger to stop them

Love that released prisoners who beat down cops can now buy guns because of full pardons! Calling for cops to be arrested for treason. Upside down world.
