I keep finding these Spinatia Assassin types for super cheap, used, on Mandarake so now I have three of them! I tried something new with the third one and I’m planning to paint no 2 (but I need a primer first). They’re fun. #30MinutesMissions

When I forget something at work I’m told I should be taking note… notes where?!? Do you think I’d remember to check my notes if I can’t remember there’s something I need to remember?!? Augh

Feels like Hasbro is happier lisencing their property to Funko Pops or anybody with a few dollars and cram as much crossover into Magic the Gathering instead of making toys

I don’t know Mr Stitt but his understanding of reciprocity is what all government officials should keep in mind and NOT do what they wouldn’t want others to do to them.

So, fun fact: about 94 years ago (1931); Texas and Oklahoma essentially declared interstate war on eachother over a bridge/border toll-rights dispute that involved their National Guards and martial law. It was called the "Red River Bridge War" and lasted two weeks.

Oklahoma’s Republican governor criticizes guard deployment. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/09/u...

Gov. Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma, a Republican and the chairman of the National Governors Association, on Thursday criticized the deployment of Texas National Guard troops to Illinois as a violation of his beliefs in federalism and “states’ rights.”

His comments, in an interview with The New York Times, marked the first time a Republican governor has questioned the interstate deployment of National Guard troops over a governor’s objections. Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois and other Democratic elected officials have been strongly critical of the move and have implored Republican governors to join the opposition.

Mr. Stitt on Thursday said, “We believe in the federalist system — that’s states’ rights,” adding, “Oklahomans would lose their mind if Pritzker in Illinois sent troops down to Oklahoma during the Biden administration.”

Got my aunt’s funeral this Saturday… family is supposed to be there at 8:30 and the ceremony is scheduled for 11h so I’ll be receiving platitudes from people I don’t know for nearly 3 hours because these things always run late. Really not looking forward to it.

I think the trick was letting it marinate for a whole day: soy sauce, sesame oil, citrus spice mix for fish and vegetables, and some mirin. Then you quickly sear it on a hot pan on all sides. Cut it and add a touch of lemon juice.
