Slimer is ready to pick up! No more bing bong car, no more stealing control from me! NO MORE DIGITAL DASHBOARD.

#ThankFringeItsFriday On this day in 1872 the ship Mary Celeste is discovered mysteriously abandoned by her crew in the Atlantic Ocean. Are you creatively adrift? Has inspiration abandoned you? Come to the Fringe discord. We won't help you but you'll have fun. discord.gg/Ft2nxJm5eX

We are always looking for Zine submissions, so send them in! There may or may not be a link in the bio. I haven't checked. #zine #ItsNotAPhaseMum #Fringe #ttrpg #grimdark #swill #writing #art #ArtCommunity

I made a video! Please give it a watch. And do those things such as liking and subscribing. I'd appreciate it so much. youtu.be/ptBOjkUEgDQ

Food waste would be reduced if places stopped adding side salads to food. The menu says chicken flat bread. I am ordering chicken flat bread. Why is there a depressing salad and a blob of catering coleslaw? Níor iarr mé é.

Is it Non Metallic Metallic, or Non Metal Metallic, or Non Metallic Metal. I need to know before I fly off the handle and have the rant of ages.

Week round up a day late! I was creative again. I've got to watch that lest it gets out of hand. #Blog #Blogging #Blogger #Creative #Arts #IrishArtist #TagsDontWork open.substack.com/pub/coolstar...

As we are coming to the end of 2025, and ever closer to the heat death of the universe, have you started to think about your hobby goals for 2026? No pressure if not, just wanted to start a conversation... #28community #WarhammerCommunity #TTRPG #TableTop #ArtistCollective #ArtMovement #Community

I have a very strong dislike of Prednisone.

Three heaped teaspoons of Cadbury hot chocolate is a challenge. Give me exact measurements or I will take the piss.

#ThankFringeItsFriday What shenanigans are you working on? Come hang out on our Discord where we read the future in coffee froth. discord.gg/Ft2nxJm5eX #28community #WarhammerCommunity #28 #28mm #TTRPG #TableTop #InclusiveCreativity #ArtistCollective #ArtMovement #Community #ItsNotAPhaseMum

"You buy one, you get one free!"

There are people out there who still do not know the right way to walk around Lidl and Aldi.

Bring out your goblins, goolies, orcs, trolls, and beasties! Fringe is going down to the swap this Saturday 29th November. www.departmentofwargaming.com/event-detail... #28community #WarhammerCommunity #28 #28mm #TTRPG #TableTop #InclusiveCreativity #ArtistCollective #ArtMovement #Community

I have a strong dislike for barometric pressure headaches.

Lunch was a bag of Tangfastics which had the audacity to tell me a portion size is five sweets. El oh el.

#WIPWednesday and what exactly is going on here. Here being my brain and my hobby room. #Blogging #Blogger #Writing #BlogPost open.substack.com/pub/coolstar...

I took a provigil for the first time in months. I held off because I don't want to be buzzing when I'm really ill. Anyway, time to do all the things all at once while also ignoring the things I should be doing.

I've been making mushroom giants out of sprue goo.

Hear me out. If you want a four day work week but also complain when a shop is closed because it's their "off time" you're the problem. Businesses are working because people set the expectation for them to be open. Fuck off back home and let the service industry rest.

Week Round-Up! Car shenanigans and a bit of creativity. #BlogPost #Blogging #Substack #Kitbashing #MiniaturePainting open.substack.com/pub/coolstar...

Jonathan made the food I had at a Spanish restaurant in the UK. I've eaten so much I need to lie outside in the cold to digest.

Slimer is not a write-off! It means I can continue to drive a car with buttons, analogue dashboard, and no bing-bongs! No timelines for completion so the Sportage is hanging around for a bit.

Insurance rental car is a 2025 Kia Sportage and its the worst car. Full glass cockpit and bing-bongs constantly. I started driving cars with CABLE ACCELERATORS. Stop fucking interrupting me with your bingbongs about a thing I can see OUT THE FUCKING WINDOW.

The travel shenanigans didn't end with the tiny ferry delayed 7 hours. On the way down the M8 a (suspected) concrete block came off an overpass and hole punched Slimer on the roof. I relinquish him for crash repairs tomorrow. Unfortunately there is a possibility of a write-off.

I got stuck behind a Ford Transit with bad wiring. Which made for an interesting drive over the M62 in Storm Claudia. #Blog #Blogging #SliceOfLife buff.ly/7i19dYM

I'm on the Stena Nordica! A tiny ro-ro. I have an idea for a game. I wonder if I can write it on the sailing.

While I've been sat here in Holyhead Port since 0800 I can say there are two types of people who take the ferry. 1. People who know it's a ferry. 2. People who seem to think its first class on the QE2. Calm down love. We are all drinking from the same coffee machine.

Ferry still in Dublin so will be hanging out in Holyhead Ferry Terminal for the next 5 or 6 hours. I feel sorry for the foot passengers. I'm all wrapped up in Slimer with pillows and a weighted blanket. Living my best life.

I'm on #Substack so come say hi! I'm defining what #TheHobby and #Kitbashing means to me. That way it makes sense when I keep banging on about it in future posts. #Blog #NewPost #Blogging buff.ly/8YnfUkk

Mum used to make dollhouses and is letting me raid her bitz boxes. So I guess that's where I get it from.

Had a read of Met Éireann and Met Office. The sailing and drive on Saturday may well be miserable.

Are blogs still a thing? Do you have one? Please link! #blog #blogs #BlogPost

The great thing about The Deep during the week is everyone visiting has pushchairs. Meaning all the stairs are empty and quiet...

I gave my parents Irish lurgie. Despite my best efforts. I feel super guilty as it's hitting them harder than it hit me.

Yo. England. Excuse me. It's meant to be cold in November.

Another unfinished project, this time the miniature @lionsledbydonkeys.bsky.social released. I decided to paint it as Mr. Tayto, but until my shakes die down I have to leave it be! #MiniPainter #MiniaturePainter #IrishArtist

At #TurnipCon today! What craic!

That time I wanted to make my own #Labubu but only got as far as the head. #ModelMaker #Maker #Milliput #Greenstuff #Sculpey #PolymerClay #IMadeAThing #InProgress #MiniPainting #MiniPainter #MiniaturePainting #IrishArtist

#FinishedFriday Piece one is printed photo on watercolour paper and acrylic. Piece two is just layers of acrylic on watercolour paper. Technique studies but I am happy with how they came out as a whole. #IrishArtist #Painting #Print #ArtStudy

That was a very anaemic bonfire night lads. U OK hun?

Another #WIP that hasn't been touched since before hospital. I wanted to #KItbash something on a base (33mm). So meet Base Boyyyy. #ModelMaker #Maker #Milliput #Greenstuff #IMadeAThing #InProgress #MiniPainting #MiniPainter #MiniaturePainting #IrishArtist

I forgot it's BoomBOOM crack wizz BANG night here.

I am in Yorkshire, drinking Yorkshire Tea, made with Yorkshire water. Home. Gonna grind my teeth on yhat limescale.

Ireland. We are so spoiled when it comes to driving. Look, I know some of ye are shite drivers but JFC the roads over here are mental. Manchester really is a boil on the arse that is the motorway network in the NW.

Greetings from Internet@Sea. My laptop is also consuming the same amount of power it is pulling from this ferry plug socket. There is balance in all things.

Morning nerds. Dublin Port is wet. Stena Adventurer delayed an hour. Sleeping in car.

I have no finished projects, so lets have a look at my pile of progress! Painting some of my birthday present #Orks #WIP #WarhammerCommunity #OrkWithAK #Miniatures #MiniPainting #MiniPainter #IrishArtist

Oooh look at me paying my M50 toll BEFORE I drive it.

I really don't think I like being on immunosuppressants again.
