The dog had to get a bone marrow biopsy. Hopefully, they figure out what the heck is going on with her.

if you want a real easy way to be a chad do not get involved in this on any level. I dont scold people for their tastes but JK Rowling has said repeatedly she puts the revenue generated by Harry Potter right into anti trans political organizations and legislation
Hasbro and Warner Bros. Discovery have signed a multi-year deal starting in 2027 to produce Harry Potter film and television series dolls, role play, action figures, collectibles, interactive plush, board games, and more to be revealed later this year - bwnews.pr/45UKdKL

I'm in the "Creative & Gaming Community" that's nice.
I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself!

I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

I’m pretty sure this jingle is the sound of childhood and if you’ve never seen ‘Back to the Future’ then I suggest you take a good hard long look at yourself 😜

I saw Iron Lung today!
The only complaints I'm seeing online are about its pacing. While not perfect, I feel worked with the story it was trying to tell.
Overall? I enjoyed it and that's all I ask of a movie.
So I recommend it!

As I watch people reacting to the latest Warhammer previews I am struck with a combination of "good for people that will benefit from these models and battleforce boxes." And a "sweet emperor should I downsize?"
I don't know why I've been feeling the desire to be a one army man for a while now...

One of my wishes for the future of 40k?
"More" blending between the 3 Super-Factions.
Specifically, I want a Chaos Xenos faction and a Renegade Human faction that sided with Xenos instead of the Imperium or Chaos.
They exist in the lore, but don't have great representation on the tabletop.

I watched the first season of Stranger Things, but never picked it back up.
From what clips I saw of Eddie's season before I thought he was a neat character.
Now that it's over? I kind of want to go and watch just his season.

I've been a huge fan of Vanguard Onslaught this edition. Maybe subconsciously craving that Zerg Rush mentality.
One of my friendly local game stores had a nice 1000 pt. tournament this Saturday, so I decided to bring the Invaders one last time.
