In that mental state where I watch thoughts float by, occasionally bat at them if they're in reach to see what I get

Dreams 

Anyway probably stealing the old relic hunter's concept for something eventually

Dream, Half-Life 2, violence and death 

I also dreamt I was in city 17 and got poked by stunsticks until I suffered cardiac arrest because the combine thought my spasms and screaming was entertaining, though thankfully it shifted to a third-person novel perspective by the end.

Wtf mate

Dream, Threads of Fate, spoilers 

Dreamt about a weird alternate universe threads of fate that probably was directed by Masato Kato

Doll Master and co. Had more forces and a floating fortress made by a magician studying Valen in the past. Rue, Mint, and Rod stormed the fortress together, but ended up caught in a conflict between Doll Master's generals and ended up in a rigged fight between all of them at once in a massive free-for-all

Once Doll Master came to sort things out, Rue apologized for exacerbating the conflict and begged him to resurrect Claire even if it costs his own life, Psycho Master confirmed the events, and Doll Master was just fed up with the melodrama and called a truce before taking Rue to his room to talk as brothers

Most interestingly, a man in xenogears-esque obscuring helmet and mask of woven straps came aboard the fortress unannounced and joined Doll Master after Rue cried himself to sleep, and the two waxed exposition about the aeons blasting each other back to the stone age in antiquity and events being set to repeat itself. He then revealed himself to be a thick-necked, bushy-moustached greying old man who was a relic hunter that inadvertently awoke Rue and Doll Master, and theoretically host to another aeon's consciousness (this clown going full xenogears)

Anyway eventually the truce breaks down and more fighting ensues, Doll Master unseals Valen's citadel, things roughly go on as in canon, but a stinger clip shows the masked relic hunter (since having lost his aeon) standing and walking on the (now-grounded) fortress's wall using Doll Master's animations, implying he found Doll Master during the ending and became host to him after his demise

Fun shit

There's a lot of text here and I'm at work currently so apologies for not transcribing both images.

Keeping warm by going through Elena Chernyshova's photos of the arctic city of Norilsk, which is in darkness for 45 days a year.

My little micro moth babies fluttered all the way here in time for christmas!

Periodic reminder that "Just google it" is dangerous advice. You're asking someone with professed ignorance of a topic to wade through a sea of adversarial SEO hacks and deliberate misinformation. This is how people fall for e.g. the propaganda from Autism Speaks.

Want to do: Castle Titania

Have to do: christmas cardmaking, figure painting, baking, and wrapping

Able to do: :blobcatghost:

demand for small-batch yarn is facilitating a resurgence of tiny mills which often use salvaged machinery. (the industry largely collapsed in the nineties due to globalization).

i've been contemplating the potential for a parallel in chip manufacturing: if there's sufficient interest in 8 bit to merit the design and local fabrication of something 6502-like, using salvaged semiconductor equipment.

(this would of course rely on being an ideological project since there's no competing financially)
