Python dev near Boston moving my family to Halifax. I've made 29 life-size #Batman standees, love modern #boardgames and working out story beats for #TTRPGs #savageworlds. I care, but I'm burned out on politics.
I'm also @pirates-ttrpg.bsky.social
Electric car April fool!

On the left, someone who does not follow politics. On the right, me.

Sometimes you don't have to talk. It's just nice to sit together.

Will Apple or Google be the first to change their maps to say "Gulf of America"?

It's a capitulation race!

I made another crate, this one half size. It's nice to trust a project and have more confidence and less study time for it.

These are custom sized to hold my wife's stained glass and rest on their side. When we move I will attach lid.

Like all fathers, I was born with the ability to make pancakes in the shape of rabbits.

The situation can always get worse. Throw away your good news, this happened.

Did this escape from Australia?

You know who didn't help me with anything today?

I built this crate today, but the real reward is that I learned how to make perfectly repeatable cuts without a table saw. I feel like I gained a superpower.

If Trump is coming to Canada he'll have to get past this.

I installed new handles on the cabinets yesterday. Can you see the row of knives at the back of this drawer? No, because I can't open it enough.

#1 on my daughter's list.

I had to get her password and listen to this song in secret so many times to force it. No regrets.

Tonight is the Oathsworn vs the Satyr. I liked our odds until my first and best attack was a complete fail.

Poison Ivy, Joker, and Harley Quinn. I cut them out of plywood but not too close, I don't want arms to be fragile. They don't look like much without paint.

I'll show painting in the next post.

Day 3, building 30 #batmanstandees

Do you need to know which printer ink cartridge is full, which is empty?

The full one weighs 2 g more.

We started in 2015 when my kids asked what I wanted to do for my birthday. I said "Let's make Batman".

Day two. #batmanstandees

Almost 9 years ago I started building Batman standees. Life size, plywood, from Batman; The Animated Series.

My family and friends helped paint. We started with four, now we have almost 30.

Every day I'm going to create a little good news and post about it.

The ornament is macaroni glued to paper, painted gold. Only a parent would love it. The rabbit does not give a damn, it might be edible.

Photo 2 is after I called his name. If you look closely at the balloon ornament, someone bit through one of the ropes. I didn't notice it when I took the picture.

Why, yes, I *do* own a rabbit.

There is so much bad news in the world, but he doesn't follow the news.

Best for Christmas: Gremlins or Muppets?
