Alright bluesky let's see if we know someone with the right hobby.

I've got some wooden model shipbuilding stuff - passed down - tools, lots of small pieces and parts, guidebooks, a half-built ship, etc.

Is there a forum or such where I could find someone in the area who might want them?

Honestly think one winning message for the next presidential contender could be "Is your computer running better than it was four years ago?"

The Trump admin is laying off nearly 200 CISA employees & forcing dozens more to take new jobs at other agencies (sometimes across the country) or quit.

Morale & productivity are sinking at the already-depleted agency, further jeopardizing US cybersecurity.

My story w/ new details: bit.ly/3KLoptn
Layoffs, reassignments further deplete CISA
Some CISA staffers have been pushed out, while others are being told to move across the country for jobs outside their skill sets.

Today's the 959th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings, so obviously I'm reposting my scenes from the Bayeux Tapestry in Playmobil.

Two years ago, I embarked on an ambitious 3D reconstruction model of Dover Castle, recreating how it might have looked at the time of the Great Siege in 1216. Working with a team of architectural and military historians, the digital model and 3D renders took over five months to develop. #Blender3D
Computer 3D model reconstruction of Dover Castle as it might have looked in 1216 on the eve of the Great Siege of 1216, when the Castle defended an attack by an Anglo-French rebellion against an unpopular King John of England. Working closely with a team of architectural and military historians, the digital model absorbed over 800 hours of work over five months. Laser survey and GIS data, hundreds of measured architectural drawings from Historic England archives, old engravings and paintings, and the findings of three detailed archaeological reports were analysed to create the digital model. Photographic textures, 3D renders, and manual digital painting helped bring the Castle's history to life through richly detailed images. The completed images were created for the exhibition, Dover Castle at Siege, which English Heritage opened in July 2024.

It's 2 things
1) YouTube revealed George Clooney etc was doing coffee ads overseas and every other star went "I'm getting mine"
2) Fracture of network TV into 8 million types of distraction meant brands need stars in order to gain attention

But yes: non-celebrities are getting squeezed.

These Miele commercials we get in Canada are the weirdest ads I've seen in ages. "Buy the stove these douchebags love!"

went for a walk today down by the river and got a tour of what @magpie.tips identified as several "good trees"
A fallen tree in the river. It has ferns on it.

What I remember most about Rob is that he was a nerd's nerd. He was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic, he just loved gaming. He was determined to make a living around ttrpgs. That requires incredible hustle. He brought it. Our little industry is worse off with his loss.

Gutted to hear about the passing of @robowieland.bsky.social today.
He wrote games, wrote about games, and was a smart, passionate advocate for the TTRPG hobby. Gone too young.

He was going to run events at GameHoleCon later this week. I don't know what happened, but it seems it was sudden.

I keep hoping it's some sort of weird, pre-convention bit that's a setup for a big reveal.

But it's not. Real bummer.
