Fun fact about the Salvation Army: they use a form of substance use treatment called work therapy. Oh, and by treatment, I mean they have people who have been convicted of drug charges work for their stores & warehouses in exchange for room, board, around a $1 a week, and minimal actual therapy.

Okay, forget rotating an apple in your head. How many folks can visualize a color wheel in their mind? Because I don't feel like I've ever needed to reference a physical wheel.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

Just shot from the car. I should go back sometime, but the best spots are pretty far between.

At $200/$500! Thank you! But I really need the last $300, so perhaps I can sell you some painted robots?

I've crunched the numbers, and I need to raise about another $500 to get through the rest of the month. I've got a couple of appointments and need to restock on meds, which are big costs for me. If you can help, please use paypal.me/colbosch. I also have a few miniatures left for sale, next post.

The cover to BattleTech: Outfoxed, the first full novel for Katie Ferraro and the Fox Patrol, goes way harder than should be possible. The book comes out in 13 days. Pre-orders should start soon.

"Trump is conducting a full, personal takeover of the United States so nobody can release proof that he's a pedophile" is the dumbest fucking take. What fucking bugs live in your skull to make you believe for a second that's the case? He wants to be king, plain and simple.

If I accidentally posted an AI-generated video, I'd delete that shit in a femtosecond once it was pointed out, no matter how much engagement the post had gotten. I find it really fucking suspicious how even verified accounts on here leave that shit up.

when someone says "my dice are cursed" you sort of have to agree with them because if you say "marius you are a grown man and I know you know that's not how probability works" they won't say anything but they'll treat you like you are in league with the cursed dice
