Just turned on the game about an hour ago to see who won, and now it's the 15th inning.

somehow I have entered the mini mad mad nightmare bike marketplace

tiny motorcycle with tons of rust, sketchy welds, a lawnmower engine, the biggest gear possible on the back wheel, and a amazing tri tone red teal and rusty yellow paint job.

just putting together some models from another indie mini sculptor, and the sculpts are great, and the casting surface fidelity is great (I can see his fingerprints on the models), but the sprues and vents are _horrible_. bummer, gonna ask who he got to cast for him and avoid them.

from the same wander, some public wargaming terrain (6mm scale)

public art sculpture with distressed buildings, small rocks, and scattered yellow leaves.

I just remembered I captured a #glitch4andi last week

3 road signs stacked vertically. They are led displays, but the bottom left of each display is broken and showing incorrect colors and blocks. The incorrect colors show in a somewhat regular pattern

Sometimes dice in tabletop games are a bit "swing-y". I designed and made this full set of dice for people who prefer more consistent results. I call them Mean Dice.

I enjoy the fact that other folks have blackberries in their yard (accessible from the sidewalk), but I hope they never get a foothold in ours.

Alright, let's do it. Here's a little prospective reader's guide to every Thomas Pynchon novel. We'll take them in order of publication. This might be a long thread. Buckle up! 1/x

Image from the Simpsons of Pynchon with a bag over his head on a cell phone. He's standing in front of a house with a neon sign advertising it as his home.

The thread answers the question posed.

Mezentine @mezentine.bsky.social · May 25

I am obsessed with this road they show us endless flyover shots of in this show. Why is it four lanes? Why is it built like a double boulevard? It serves a few dozen single family homes and never has 1/10th the cars on it to justify that robust a level of traffic management.

A screenshot from the show The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. It shows a complex four lane double boulevard road forming a residential street with spacious single family lots on both sides.
