@valvesoftware.com this is weak and still unethical. Ban the use of A.I. in all creative aspects of game production, you greedy cowards.

Devastated by the passing of Roger Allers. A beautiful storyteller, artist, human. Love to all who knew him. He once drew a portrait of my dogs for no reason. And nailed their souls. And then gifted that drawing to me. Who does that? Thank you, Roger.

If you were going to be teleported there and back, and could only enter one place, I’d suggest Dennis Severs’ House, 18 Folgate Street, a Spitalfields row house refurbished to look and feel as if its 18th/19th century residents have only just stepped out for a moment. Extraordinarily experience.

30 years of Eric's Trip - Purple Blue! Purple Blue is the third album by Eric's Trip. The album marked a turn to a heavier, more psychedelic sound, which Rick White would further explore w/ Elevator. This 2018 repressing is on a Dark Purple Marble color vinyl-> megamart.subpop.com/products/eri...

When I see this image, I recall how I read this edition of Steranko's History of Comics to such tatters that the school librarian gave it away to a kid in the class behind me. He was my D&D DM, so I had to see this torn out page hung on the wall of his Stranger Things-style basement lair. Jealousy!

'50 Foot Queenie' is one of the best rock songs ever performed.

Also, this was nice to see over on the Kobo site today. A $2.99 sale is good for boosting numbers now and again! (That $2.99 deal is available at most eBook retailers, BTW. Probably for the rest of the weekend.)
