Watching @littlenyao.bsky.social making this model, teaching herself airbrush painting, and then teaching herself soldering so she could modify it to take LED lighting was quite the thing. #transformers #mtmte #idwtransformers

Imagine, just imagine, putting this in terms of “delight.” You have a chance to cast a vote against the government terrorizing American cities and presiding over the needless deaths of millions and you need *delight*? Get the fuck out of here.

Playing around with my printer and painting various stuff up as proxies. In this case, designing specs for a new mech based on the Hulkbuster armor. At normal human distance, I'm much happier with it. (Now I just need to improve the basing.) Behold the Kanabo. #Battletech #mechwarrior #minipainting

All eyes on Minnesota!

This is a great read. BattleTech (mentioned in the article) has a ton of trans players and I'd say the vast majority of fandom likes it just fine or, at worst, doesn't care one way or the other because it's more folks to play with. (King Crab by @versusrev.bsky.social)

Just a New Hampshire Republican telling everyone she's unqualified to so much as carry a shovel behind the horses in a parade, let alone chair the state's house education committee. #newhampshire granitepostnews.com/2026/01/14/l...

ICE shot a legal observer in the face in Minneapolis. Abolish ICE and prosecute every single one of their deputized terrorists.

If Trump is really stealing spending power from Congress then it would be insanity for Democrats to vote to fund the government later this month. Shut it down until the president stops wiping his ass with the Constitution.

The media are still calling him "unpredictable". He isn't creative enough to weave a plausible lie, or anywhere near subtle enough to hide an incendiary truth. He is an imbecile. He is an idiot. He TELLS you EXACTLY what he is going to do LONG before he does it.

Reposting this considering everything that’s happened the last couple days….

Realized I didn't post this whilst on my 'making tabletop terrain' kick. Brief explanation in the alt text #battletech #mechwarrior #wolfsdragoons #tabletopgaming

When life hands you print failures, make a Twycross diorama. #battletech #mechwarrior #clanjadefalcon

A new piece of terrain for a memorial square: 3D printed with a .6mm nozzle. I'm liking the way this turned out! #FDMiniature #BattleTech #Mechwarrior #3Dprinting

Trans Pride Zaku in video.

fuck you the memories of a generation lost because of Reagan's homophobia will not be erased i think we should do something in DC that would make david wojnarowicz proud tbh

And now I have a terrible idea... #transformers #battletech

"University of Maryland researchers want to use Mario Kart to train self-driving cars, which makes absolute sense if you know anything about Maryland drivers" wtop.com/maryland/202... #fuckyoubaltimore

The harsh crackdown on anyone who doesn't properly mourn Charlie Kirk and pretend he was a good guy is polarizing me more and more in the opposite direction. He was a vile, hateful little man who wanted people like me lynched. The more you scream at me for pointing that out, the more I'll say it.

Christ. Fuck this. I don't want to honor Charlie Kirk memory. And actively dishonor that nazi's memory with every second that I am alive longer then he is, happy & joyous as myself - not as a bigot spouting conformity & advocating death. Fuck you Newsom - I really just can't stand this centrist BS.

And here's my first attempt at making the chest, using white, gray, and color-shifting filaments, then highlights added with paint pens: #ttrpg, #dnd, #3dprinting

A WiP of my take on the Chest of Superior Tracking for D&D games: I printed the main body of the chest out of a glow-in-the-dark filament, hit it with a black/gray wash, then drybrushed the inscription in silver. Loving the way the glow shows through. #DND, #3dprinting, #TTRPG

[wakes up and checks news] Huh. Damn shame. [goes about daily business]

An excellent, informative, and even touching thread on the only #MMO that I ever really played. I started #CoH much later than @mcbiohazard.bsky.social and really appreciated the historical context of the gameplay changes over time. And the coda made new want to enter the world to be a hero again.

images that spring to mind unbidden, part 756: "my buddy the Motorcycle Fucker"

... If anybody needs me, I'll be reading this over and over and swearing under my breath at myself.

probably fine

I hope Rowling stubs her toe every day for the rest of her life

Me describing 80s-90s #ironman to a friend: "You have a person who is genuinely trying to do good, but usually so used to being alone that they don't want to ask for help. Not from ego, but to keep other people insulated from their problems. So you get these cycles of behavior." ... Fuck

the same media that freaks out at the notion that obama didnt want to talk to fox news or that biden supposedly hid his condition will just shrug at this shit. and liberals will respond by pleading for the nyt to do better and get to work on their wordles. ive just about had it tbh.

Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Nazi Engine from classic sci-fi novel Don't Create The Nazi Engine.

Didn't realise the Greek Navy had introduced a Jimmy Hill class frigate

When doing a 2am filament swap on a split print because you didn't check before you started the print, make sure you have sufficient light, sufficient alertness, and sufficient self-awareness to not do it. May I present to you, the USS Neapolitan.

3D printed Time Case for Brainstorm is coming along... Teaching myself a lot of things in this process, and probably making a lot of mistakes, but I'll take it. And the UV light test worked well! #transformers #mtmte #lostlight

I like "Not my circus, not my monkeys."

Oh memories... One of the worst days I'd ever had, and I said to myself "At least there's a new WfM episode to distract yourself." This was the episode that aired. #gundam #witchfrommercury In hindsight, I forgot the cardinal rule that "The Gundam and Yuri genres have one constant: P A I N"

www.king5.com/article/tech... Reminds me of this Onion article from 2000: “I believe I speak for the entire human race when I say, ’Holy fuck,’” said Oceanographic Institute director Dr. James Aoki, “That’s it for us monkeys.”

I've just been made aware of this mod; the creators really went the extra mile for it. No simple gender/model swap; they re-recorded 1700 lines of spoken dialogue, added new NPCs and tweaked others, and made sure pronoun swaps were included across all text. Amazing.

(sighing) Seems like a good day to mention that there are wizardly universes in which the series creator's only opinion about toilets is that when you use one, you should try not to miss. www.youngwizards.com

EXCLUSIVE — The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker. My report, with an excerpt from the full editorial: www.thehandbasket.co/p/exclusive-...

A talk about BattleTech, Inclusion, and Pride youtu.be/LXKawXSfBEU

When an autistic person is sharing a special interest be mindful that growing up we were often shut down or made fun of for sharing & what you consider “playful teasing” can be taken as mean/hurtful especially if we feel confident/comfy enough to unmask & share something with you or our communities.

If you have a good relationship with your dad this #fathersday, be happy. Spare a thought for those who had to live their lives and be their selves in spite of, rather than because of, that presence.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

June's Bad Mech article is here! Something tells me theaters full of kids aren't gonna cry over the Grand Titan. Read it here: www.sarna.net/news/bad-mec... #battletech #mech #transformers

#showmeyourgunpla I don’t really build right now because I accidentally made a critical mistake of making myself important at work so now I’m too busy. But here’s my favorite gunpla I’ve made.
