Remembering the one Mocca Fest where they had the Big Charlie Brown floating overhead inside the Armory.

He slowly deflated over the course of the day and had his foot propped up with a chair until they could top him off..

This is such a fun game and I’m so excited to get my hands on the final product!
I've had the honor of not only playtesting Bolted, but also watching the absolute care to detail @davidmalki.com has put into this project via WIP. It's INCREDIBLE. So much fun to play – @makinaro.com & I laughed A LOT! I just backed it and you should too! 🥳🙌 www.kickstarter.com/projects/mal...

Just put up a new zine in my itch.io shop - it'll also be available in print at MICE, it takes a look at former carceral spaces that have been transformed into something else, examining how they engage with the public and whether it is possible to do so ethically. It's also pay what you want.

The low-angel Frieren meme is genuinely inspiring. Someone braver than the troops shares a picture they know turned out weird. Thousands start sharing their own art, offering advice and laughing together at something that is genuinely hard.

No ai to be seen --- just people supporting each other.

Dear Physicists and Physics fans,

I would like to encourage you to celebrate #WomenInPhysics Day this Friday, November 7th.

Why November 7th? Because it is the birthday of two of the most impactful women physicists of the 1900's: Marie Curie and Lise Meitner. 🎢 ⚛️ 🧪 👩‍🔬

This scammer (SouljaBoy) still owes me for his LAST console that was never shipped and/or probably never existed.

I bought it because I thought it would be funny to review, and while I’ll grant that the novelty of saying, “SouljaBoy owes me $120,” has not been without value, I’d rather the money.

An order of chicken fingers is called a hand. “Gimme a hand of fingies,” you say. If you want dipping sauce you ask for them to “paint the nails.”
