US Government accounts have arrived on Bluesky.

Block on sight.

Protect your digital space.

Be aware that the DHS account in particular is known to quote dunk on regular people to encourage their followers to harass them.

The detach quote function will come in very handy here…

Added a knife stabbing a scorpion for the movie Predator.

Made Littlepip's eight memory orbs from the last chapter in the second book of Fallout Equestria.

For Slayers Volume 4: The Battle of Saillune, I made a lesser demon pulling itself out of a roasted chicken.

I think that's as close as I'm going to get for a xenomorph hybrid from William Gibson's Alien III script.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 8d

Started reading David Twohy script for Alien 3 and it already has one positive going for it in that it has a unique mystery (i.e. a prisoner dying twice).

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 9d

One of the biggest flaws is that the script makes these acid filled, heavily armored aliens seem rather weak since they are suddenly susceptible to 20th century firearms when Aliens required pulse rifles and flamethrowers.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 9d

Another option would have been to focus more on the attempts to alter xenomorph genes to be even more compatible with human, animal, and inorganic material, which would have made a better build up to the ending than 'small town America's last stand against the alien menace'.

Building it up to show that it's all been put into his head as his body is kept alive as an incubator, with everything becoming more alien as hatching time comes closer.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 9d

One possibility that might have worked would have been to have stuck with the surreal sense of mystery it started out with. Sam Smith encounters the Alien and suddenly waking up in what looks like 20th century rural America with no clue how he got there and everyone is acting weird.

Finished Eric Red's Alien 3 and it is the weakest of the bunch so far. Killing Ripley off-screen at the beginning of the movie probably wouldn't have worked out to begin with, but the story and tone are also off and don't match previous entries. It needed to pick a lane and stay there.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 10d

Eric Red's Alien 3 script is really big on explosive decompression. It's also rather racist about its one Japanese character (with an oddly Chinese name).

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 11d

I guess xenomorphs have a sense of comedic timing.

Best I could do for a xenomorph/sheep hybrid based on Vincent Ward's script for Alien 3.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 12d

Finished the second book of Fallout Equestria (it only took... a year...) and next, before going into the third book, I'll read Contraptionology.

Started reading Eric Red's Alien 3 script and it immediately kills off every survivor from Aliens, including Ripley.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 12d

Finally watched Predator and I've got to say: that Predator seemed relatively bad at his job/hobby.

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 14d

The normal reproductive cycle of xenomorphs is bad enough, but spreading through spores, bites, multiple chestbursters, and bodybursters... That doesn't seem like something the universe could survive.

Eric Mohler @eamoh13.bsky.social · 14d

Finished the Gibson Alien 3 script. I'm not entirely clear on if the changes in the Anchorpoint xenomorphs are a natural evolution, built-in contingencies, or changes caused by the company's tinkering. For humanity's sake, that strain hopefully ended with the station's destruction.
