  • Wait, what? For real?

    fiddles with some buttons

  • Hey, some people are into leather.

  • there's no one to blame that doesn't have an R by their name.

    Are you kidding? They'll be scapegoating Biden's corpse so long and so hard even the DNC will blush. And then there's always Obama as a backup plan.

    Life is cake when absolutely nothing is your fault.

  • And it was a good plan, for a while. Shame about that plague, though.

  • I started watching Wing when a friend brought the VHS tapes to work. Tried to finish it on Toonami but they kept shifting the schedule around. Didn't get to finish it until the DVD run was over.

  • When Apple announces a feature that Samsung phones don't have, Samsung also trolls them because that feature is bad. And then a year later, Samsung advertises that they also have that feature.

  • The pharma-go-round is torture, even with a good doctor. With a doctor that doesn't listen, it's unbearable. Which means finding a new doctor and starting again. It's a vicious cycle. Glad you landed on something that works.

  • Sega does what Nintendon't.

    It warms my old man heart to see the console flame wars still going strong. Tribalism, what a thing, lemme tell ya. Human nature at its naturist.

    NG Heavyarms (old school 1/144 kit)

    cross-posted from: https://startrek.website/post/24550999

    Can't believe this was 25 years ago.

    Crummy pic. Hand painted over rattlecan primer. The doors no longer move because 20 year old me had no idea what he was doing and didn't sand before laying on layers of paint.

    I still have this packed away somewhere. Maybe one day I'll dig the old stuff back out and see if I can get some decent photos.

    This is a test of the Fail Upload System

    Now that there's an easier way to share, have an early game fail from a couple of years ago. (If it works.)

  • Toxic positivi-tea.

  • Adulthood doubles the frames: add one with no bench, and one with someone putting a bench in front of the child. The conclusion doesn't change: it's the kid's fault for tripping over the bench. We just collectively ignore that the kid was fine until someone put a bench in the way.

    MG Char's Zaku II, Tri-Star HM (both 2.0), Gouf (v1)

    cross-posted from: https://startrek.website/post/24509994

    Done many moons ago by my spouse and I, just after she got into Gundam. The Tri-Star kit was where I first fell in love with Molotow chrome. Unfortunately, I've found that they do not store well. At $10 a pen, that's a bummer.

  • Plot twist: the toddler has a multi-year marketing push worth tens if not hundreds of millions, which convinced a lot of people who don't know the first thing about chess that it really is very impressive, and all those chess-types are just jealous.

  • The narrative, as I understand it, is that the dictatorship they fled is the left, so left bad, right good. Doesn't matter that the political "left" in the US is center-right.

    It's brain-dead tribalism all the way down.

  • Feeling? In the dentist's chair?

    HG Beyond Global G3

    cross-posted from: https://startrek.website/post/24380576

    I'm what you might call a G3 simp. I cannot express how annoying it is that Bandai changes the color scheme with every release. And lately the main color has been basically white... which goes against G3 being "the gray one." The original MG comes closest to the canon color scheme IMO.

    And yes, I know I can paint. I would love to have a cohesive, consistent lineup of gray/purple Amuro alt suits (G3, Zeta III, Hi Nu, maybe Unicorn because it would look rad). It's just not on my radar any time soon.

    Straight built with some minor touch up work and bog-standard panel lining. Old, old kit that I completed a few years ago. Really took me back.

    AMV - 08th MS Team set to 10th Man Down by Nightwish

    Posting this as I was prompted by a memory in [email protected] . 08th Team is one of my favorite Gundam shows, and Nightwish is one of my favorite bands. I think the editing here is top notch.

    Hard to believe this came out ~20 years ago. Rubyeye, if you're still out there, cheers.

    Tallgeese: Real Grade vs Non-Grade

    The RG is an old build, and the NG is positively prehistoric. It's amazing how far the engineering has come in the past... math... years... uhhhhhhhh...

    Seems like a bit of a downgrade

    On a related note, I have successfully gotten my nephew into Gundam... but his 14 year old Transformers-obsessed brain simply refuses to accept that Optimus would get urfed by even a GM beam spray pistol, let alone a newtype snipe.

    How Updates Completely Change Tears of the Kingdom Speedruns

    TotK speedrunner Player 5 goes over the differences in game versions in terms of glitch accessibility and usefulness. Kind of dry, but informative.
