There is no more effective way to make myself do admin work than to spend an hour starting at a blank page for a blog post before writing a single, 2 word placeholder title and then immediately standing up to inventory some supplies.

So the more I see of this, the more I respect it. The Cybertruck is so unrelentingly and singularly absurd that the only sane aesthetic response is to heap yet more absurdity on top. This exudes a level of "you're locked in here with me" energy that you don't often get the opportunity to witness.

@simonberman.bsky.social Heresy winter snow war on the floor against my kid. I mostly use 40K iron warriors and black legion to represent the traitor legions for 30K. Bio titan kitteh joins the battle periodically.

I know of a few! I don’t promote super heavily here, tho, trying to keep my account more personal than professional but perhaps i should shift that a little.

An overnight in the freezer can render cyanoacrylate brittle. Pop them in for a while and then see if you can carefully cut them free with a hobby knife.

I loved the Amazon adaption of Tales From the Loop for its quiet, introspective tone so I was pretty excited for the adaptation of The Electric State. Having learned that it will star Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, that enthusiasm has curdled like buttermilk in a Times Square station August.
