Tbf the whole point of CSM is powerscaling
It's not like the story is actively trying to have you not think about that

A few years ago I was moving out of my student flat in Liverpool and was trying to get rid of a step ladder on Facebook marketplace, marked it for £5.
Some woman messages me asking if I could drive it to Swansea for her.

She then got really pissed when I pointed out that the fuel costs money.

Besides the crash out bit, this seems quite accurate (not mine)

A parody of the UK Parliament petition website. The petition reads "good thing please. We think the UK needs this", with 122,872 signatures

The government response reads "No."

The shoulder *is* a problem when posing
I found while working on my Barby that you're almost better off taking the shoulder armour off, posing and then putting it back on

Saw this one on shelves earlier this week and it was so hard to convince myself not to buy it

I didn't realise linear algebra was evolving that fast. Is there a paper with this new decomposition algorithm?

I also managed to snag two little treats for myself

I managed to make my way to the Hangzhou Gundam Base.

It's funny my first Base experience is this instead of London, but boy I don't think I've ever had so much fun going through the shelves in a store.

They have a staircase that plays Unicorn sound bites and it's sooooo cool

I was just now in the Hangzhou Gundam base and this started playing as soon as I saw an Exia build and it hit so hard

I don't think I've ever gone so quickly from "no way I'm buying this" to "I need it now"

It's just too cool

Bandai shared a preview of the MG Gundam Barbatos Lupus expansion set - it looks so good…. (though confirmed to be P-Bandai exclusive)

Between this and Under Star, Shocking Lemon has what's possibly one of the best OPs one-twos I've ever witnessed.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Kinda crazy to me we don't have an MG for this

Then again there's only 2 (3rd one coming) IBO MGs currently out so fair enough I guess

It never occurred to me that an hypothetical japan trip also needs to budget for a record shopping spree...

About three weeks ago I was thinking "oh maybe I should switch to YouTube Music" and I think YouTube made 3 or 4 moves in that time to make sure I never give them any money
