Ludonarrative Dissidents covering material by Cordova/The Gauntlet/Fear of a Black Dragon? This time on "When Podcasts Collide!"

Noticed I hadn't leveled any of my Glyphs so I banged out 100+ Pit runs. Now I've got two at 46, one at 41 & two more at 36. Pit level 45? Ezpz. Level 48? Rocket launcher tag where I'm either obliterating everything or instantly dead from something I didn't see with no ability to react.

I really need to train myself out of knee-jerk trying to undercut people on eBay. This guy is selling processors for seven bucks, I don't need to offer five. But....

Stealing the first three of those for reaction image purposes...

One of these days I'm going to open a place that sells day old pizza straight from a fridge & you've got to eat it standing over a sink.

Haha it really is something. Back in Wrath a friend & I used to queue as tanks then jump off of Dalaran. We'd both be in dungeons before we hit the ground.

The more work I try to do at my desk the more I become convinced that I need to tear this whole setup apart, separate the beans from the bullshit & reassemble it. What a pain in the ass.

Always fun to reach the point in a project where you look at it & say "OK fine I'll just put it back the way it was" then it still doesn't work...

The Discord app's "Scan QR Code" login method option really should be either at the very top or very bottom of their settings page. Having to scroll around to find it is JUST ENOUGH of a pain in the ass I don't want to use it on my desktop.

Wife & I caught up on this season over a road trip. Absolutely phenomenal! Blown away by how well it worked on both the "everybody lays out what they know" level & the fighting crypto-Nazis in a pocket dimension level. Can't wait for more!

Now, is the problem solved because I removed the riser or because the case is wide open? Who knows? I'm a bad scientist changing two variables at the same time. I can try to do a casemod with a hammer & remove the bit that's in my way but that feels... final.

Been dealing with random restarts on my $15 surplus special Precision T7910 for a bit. Finally decided to remove Amazon's second-cheapest PCI riser cable I installed to deal with the support rib on the case preventing me from mounting the side panel due to my too-wide GPU. Seems resolved. So far...

Twitter really was one of the best places to go for breaking news but between the algorithm changes & Musk driving off the journalists that's a thing of the past. I remember neither the Santos arrest nor Trump indictment failed to trend that day I said "well, that's cooked."

It is a good sign when you show the fiber installer your network & how you want him to run the cable then he says "I'll go get my partner & be right back" right?

There's a guy on Cults3d who makes hundreds of optional bitz for the Raven Guard (one of his packs has literally 400 slightly different helms) & my Alpha Legion heart seethes with jealousy at every release. *ALMOST* enough to make me open Blender back up.

Finally got the House Greim pack I'd been waiting on coming back into stock for months now & I'm too paranoid to paint bare faces. Wonder if I could bash on some Solar Aux helmets or something...

Lol digging though my closet I found two unbuilt Mars-pattern Rhinos: a Whirlwind & a Razorback. Useless for Heresy but I can make transports out of them. That makes four unbuilt tanks? When did I buy all of this stuff?

Immediately regretted using plastic cement when I realized the Stalker sides with the cool stabilizers means I can't mount the dozer blade anymore. Need to think of a solution.

Vindicator in-progress. Still need to print some stuff (back door, headlights, smoke launchers, searchlight, pintle mount), but it is getting there... Lascannon from Tempus Fugitives, power supply from LegioXIVGuy.

I'm not going to say how old the Vindicator I'm currently building is but the lascannon main gun predates the official version, it is a fan creation I bought off of a guy on Tempus Fugitives. Been on the pile a while...

I'm having an even tougher time getting in to this season. When dude said "The Lord of the Rings" I had to pause it I was laughing so hard. I woke my wife up & scared my cats.

Drove past a church the other day with "Behold, I come quickly! - Jesus, the Bridegroom" on the sign out front. Thought about stopping to take a picture but I was late for work.

Missed the beginning of the ep so I ended up turning my TV on & saying out loud to my wife "Wait a second, is that PhilosophyTube mudwrestling a Lannister?!" Phenomenal work, you love to see it.

At my nephew's graduation party my father-in-law took him aside, put a hand on his shoulder & said "It is a shame you aren't going to get to grow up, the world is ending soon."

It really is so damn good. Just amazing performances all around.

Messing around with Lychee Slicer to see if I like it more than the Anycubic Studio that came with my printer. I might but I don't rent software & I actively hate with every fiber of my being having to look at AI generated ads so it can pound sand.

I really need to go back through all of my twitter followers & see who-all has a profile over here then get on to transferring my attention away from that cesspool.

Finally got my Bluesky invite. Now to have a look around & see what there is to see...
