i’m not a doctor, but i’m pretty sure standing in your garage and admiring this car would do wonders for your health
good morning and happy Kyusha Wednesday: just adore the rear 3/4 on these, and the interior really cements this one firmly in Good Choices territory

i’m a bit disappointed that i couldn’t draw and share something nice today, especially since life has thrown me some hard curveballs lately and i was hoping for a feel good post.

but here’s something i can share, some of the very first drawings in my very first journal.

started to draw something and abandoned it. i do not think there will ever be enough tutorials and practice that will ever make me good at drawing buildings. i’ve come to peace with that.

texts popping up on the phone, sound and all, are so incredibly annoying when i’m reading, trying to write something, or watching videos.

i wish i knew how to turn them off without going into “do not disturb mode.”

phone calls can wait, texts can wait, nothing deserves my immediate attention.

was starting to watch about an hour long woodworking video on youtube. i got about three minutes in when they busted out a 3d printer. i don’t know why, but I immediately lost all interest then and there and turned it off.

i dunno, people blend crafts all the time, but 3d printing and woodworking?

the original ‘star trek’ and the adam west ‘batman’ series are both basically american tokusatsu

i see forbes’ propensity for scare tactics, clickbait headlines have made its way to their bluesky posts

on this gloomier, yet beautiful, winter day i’m finding myself wishing i owned my own house. i’m daydreaming about tearing up flower beds and replacing them with native wildflowers, planting a redbud and apple tree seedling and watching them grow through the years.

willie watson’s version of ‘mexican cowboy’ probably isn’t most people’s kind of song. but it’s my kind of song and i’ll turn that volume up every time it starts playing.

ditto for justin townes earle’s ‘they killed john henry.’

if those two ever play back to back i might blow out a speaker.

they should make a sequel series to ‘star trek ds9.’ a courtroom drama where the various war crimes that took place during the original show are litigated.

saw someone refer to the restoration and re-release of the original ‘star wars’ film as a money grab and, well, yeah. it’s a commercial film, that’s how that works. they were trying to grab our money when it came out in ‘77 as well.

my wife and i went to the library this week to see if they had any books on drawing that caught my eye. they didn’t. a book on how to create graphic novels caught her eye though and she said ‘what about this?’

i declined it. i can’t draw the same subject for long and i don’t have a story to tell.

paleontologists don’t actually learn about dinosaurs by studying fossilized bones. that’s a lie. that’s what they want you to think.

they actually hold regular seances to talk to dinosaur ghosts directly, but they have to keep digging up new fossils because they serve as a metaphysical locus.

my doodle page for the day.

i don’t know how to draw people and i haven’t taken the time to learn yet, but i wanted to play around with various martial arts poses. i had a lot of fun, but trying not to mess up too much was so stressful i was literally sweating. lol.

the more i think about it the netflix/warner brothers acquisition, the worse and worse the deal is for everyone from creatives to consumers.

i hope the merger fails to go through, much like what happened to kroger and albertsons earlier this year.

i think the thing i like best about ‘ultraman omega’ is that there aren’t any massive end of the world storylines going on. it’s just three buds (six if you include those monster statues) going on an adventure once a week.

it’s kind of wholesome. refreshing.

my wife won’t let me get a pet turkey and i just don’t see how our marriage is going to survive this
