City life! This piece took over 3 hours to do! Normally I don’t colour the background but I felt with this piece I really needed it to give the “night life” of a big city feel to it!

I'm hoping Twitch is going to be okay and not deal with lag today.

Try number 2 of No Man's Sky OG Expedition 1, the Pioneers. Yes, I messed with my save.

I'm curious if Twitch is going to behave today?
November 8, 2025 at 3:07 PM
Yeah, it's not happening today. I can stream on Discord and do everything else, but nope.

80%+ dropped frames.

Twitch is being naughty tonight, I'll try again in an hour after doing some Fortnite matches with @siroberon.bsky.social in my Discord. <3

Lost and futzing around in No Man's Sky.

When I say lost, I genuinely mean lost.

So. Very. Lost.

It's morning, sooooo... Good morning everyone!

Got a doctor to see today.

I'm at a point where I see doctors as just another bill to deal with now.

Maine became the twenty-second state to adopt a “red flag” law for regulating guns, with the approval of nearly 59 percent of voters.

The policy follows the worst mass killing in the state’s history.

Incredible thread. I haven't felt this much joy since I woke up this morning and learned Dick Cheney died.
Big day at U.S. District Court in D.C. where Sean Dunn, the D.C. Sandwich Guy, is on trial for misdemeanor assault of a federal officer.

Border Patrol agent Gregory Lairmore is on the stand narrating surveillance video of the sammie toss.

'Now he’s struck me with the sandwich,' Lairmore says.

Goal for the eve: survive Springfield without being sideshow Bob'd.

I'm off to be a menace in Springfield with Fortnite bot lobbies.
Come chill with me while I relax in a player free (most of the time, real players do pop in) map.

So far no stomach flare-up?

At least the bakcup medication is working, though very slowwwlllyyyy.

This is going to be a multi-year recovery.
