I remember the time when I was rooting for Falcon 9 success, like it's a favorite football team, and every launch/landing failure was a personal bummer.
Today I get a glimpse of kaboomed Starship, and feel mild amusement.
I blame ketamine, IYKWIM.

Planted this young tree in our backyard last Friday. Crimson Sentry maple.

I see a trend that is very alarming to me. With the Oval office turned into a psych ward, China now is in propaganda overdrive all over the place. I'm afraid CCP is going to have a ton of reputational benefits from all this crap.

A prediction here. In a year or two Howard Lutnick is going to run away from journalists like beaten up mongrel dog.

Humanity needs nuclear energy renaissance. Badly.

Fantastic. Thank you.

Hi, Marshall. Is there any update about The Vault coming up soon?

DeepSeek sucks :( Wut da bleeding zog iz dat answer?

Free speech deez nuts.

I'm tired of being angry.

Calm down, bruh.

This same ad pops up in my twatter feed regularly. I keep blocking it, but it shows up again. These 2 instances appeared with less than 5 min between them. "I solved the bot poblem" my ass. You are the problem. You're a disease that unfortunately has to run its course.

I will celebrate the day when the ketamine infused shithead crashes and burns. Sooner or later.

Checking twatter discussions about Starship's recent kaboom. Musk's lemming fanboys just opened the world's biggest salt mine.

Are these standees from the Vault pack or home printed from your art?

I'm definitely trying this for one of my games.

That might be the short term result, but I'm not sure about long term consequences.

I have a simpler counter proposition, that would not end with a dozen newborn states with unpredictable political and social dinamic, with access to wepons of mass destruction. Reinvest into nuclear energy.

Finally in the shop. Leg tenons are flush cut, so the surface is ready. Next steps would be making a two-sided insert to fill the top split, a leg vise, drill a row of holes for bench dogs and come up with some cover for the drawer, otherwise it's gonna collect sawdust and shavings. TBC

Almost done. I decided to add a drawer. Extra storage capacity is always nice, especially for small workshops.

The bench became useful even before the full assembly. Also I decided to add heavy duty caster wheels. That helped quite a lot later on.

Here's my first attempt to cut a mortise for future leg tenons. Somehow I didn't mess it up.

Let's goooo. Next episode about building my bench. After plaining and laminating the stock it was time to glue together the leg blanks and stretchers.

Bruh, what? I'm just taking a shit while scrolling!

Spoiler alert. If you follow me for whatever reason, and I check your profile and see crap like swastika or hammer and sickle, you, pal, go straight to /dev/null aka the blocklist. Then you can cry about freedom of speech as much as you like.

Goebbels would be proud of this era. So many loyal disciples, it's borderline adorable, if you actually manage to fight back the visceral wtf reaction.

You get within its range, you're at risk.
