Arizona is! Bill 2112 is back for another round of attempts at censorship 'age verification' requirements. The governor vetoed it last time, here's hoping.

Quick heads up, next Nighwave cycle is coming in like two weeks.

Hit a particularly funny one in Fallen London. Algernon has been bouncing around, doing the basic stat-ups, and I'm playing him as sort of a Sherlock type - investigative profession, friendships with criminals, urchins, dockworkers, hippies, and the like, but not doing too much actual villainy...

Finished painting some miniatures! Modiphius made these for the Star Trek Adventures line, which is by now long out of print (though I think they may still sell the STL files). I was reminded of three things working on these: 1, I hate resin models; b, I hate painting yellow; and iii, ye gods...

It strikes me as perhaps ironic on a Transformers-related site, but I had a thought: even the campiest 80s cartoon villains usually remembered that there has to be a world left for them to rule over.

On the digital side - I've been into the setting for ages and watched a lot of Failbetter's other games, Sunless Seas/Skies, but I never actually played in the OG Fallen London. Rectified that today, I literally just made an account a few minutes ago and kicked Algernon Cuthridge out into the...

Double XP weekend, and Baro extra visit with all his Prisma-grade stuff! Thread tax: Koumei all kitted out, alt helmet, in a fetching (and coincidentally-appropriate) purple that I almost like more than my white-and-green:

More blog posts from my quote file: "Things computers in the early 2000s had NO MINIMALISM The ability to log in without a ******* Microsoft account No updates in the middle of the night that ruined the layout beyond recognition NO MINIMALISM Dozens of plug sockets of every type Pre-installed...

Not wrong in any capacity, I don't think. Side tangent: John Carter was surprisingly good. The failure was in the desperate attempts to not 'reveal' the Mars thing, IIRC because some other animated movie involving Mars was a bust.

Yeah, unfortunately the Tron 3 that was an actual sequel to Legacy was torpedoed after Tomorrowland flopped. Disney took that as "audiences don't like non-Star Wars science fiction" and scuttled it. I am a Tron fan, and I'm still not sure how I feel about Ares. I have reservations based on what...

At core size? Sure, I would have gone for a NERF Tank. :LOL:

I hope my multi-posting this thread isn't a bother, I just enjoy blabbing about the game. I decided to not actually touch Koumei until I had all her gear too, so I ground out the pearls for Higasa and Amanata. I'll go back for her trading card later. Still getting a feel for her abilities; the...

Ah, Traveller. Where (in older editions) you can die during chargen!

I like the colors you put on it, I will give Hasbro credit for trying to get that design out at some level of retail, but man. The stubbiest little choo-choo. Even moreso than HoS Bee. (Also, because I'm surprised it's not been done: Toxitrain?)

Got to sit down and play a few runs on one of the Final Girl modules I picked up, Haunting of Creech Manor. I definitely see why people have ranked it low on the list of season 1 films - in my post two up from here, I did say I knew it was pretty RNG swingy, but dang. I like it thematically, and...

Loot get! I was finally able to source a To Boldly Go expansion for Attack Wing, so now I have a pretty good spread of Feddie ships for my Alliance: Dominion War solitaire game; something a little heftier than a single Akira and Excelsior from the Part 1 starter. Plus, regardless of inaccuracy...

Nice little score today. Random stop at a collectible shop yielded the TRU yellow-redeco Cybertron Mudflap, a mold I've never touched with the added appeal of the under-the-table Erector redeco. Not quite complete (missing the missile and cyberkey, crane hook broken), but otherwise functional; a...

Oh hey. Credit booster weekend is up, some good Gift of the Lotus missions on right now. Always appreciate a free weapon (Dex Dakras at the moment), even if it's one I just sell and turn it into a free slot instead. Decided to sit down and grind out Koumei. Shrine Defense is quick and not hard...

Made it to the FLGS board game night for a bit this week. Sat in on a game of Takenoko, I remain good at neither panda- nor garden-keeping. They also got in my order of some more Final Girl stuff, and I splurged a bit. Got my order of Killer From Tomorrow (Terminator) and The Falconwood Files...
