Your Friend and Mine

I'm a bit of a casual expert on the Dunning-Krueger effect
Pinned
Hate when you're on the dating apps and they claim they possess mighty works but when you meet in person the best they can do is lone and level sands that stretch far away
One for grad school but I'm reminded of a Hans Moleman joke:

I'll take the saddest, most frustrating book about Native American treatymaking you have.

No, that's too sad

Honestly think I've never done a better #miniature coloring and highlight job than on this #marvelcrisisprotocol version of Hulk!

Was very fun, plus a good reason to buy bright green and deep purple!

I'm beginning to think this "Chaos Daemon" character is up to no good...

Pretty great, gross stuff! Pretty neat!

Repeating but 1 year in, 2 years in, and 4 years into this hobby! I got a lot more practice in the first two years but that's life baby

Bought this one to celebrate being done teaching for the year and finished the day before I went back to work. Summer was crazy okay #warhammer #40k #worbearers

Resume writing is so funny because it'll be like

PATIENT: Doctor, I'm depressed. Life feels miserable and pointless. What do I do? How do I become happy again?
THERAPIST: I know what'll cheer you up. The cask of Amontillado I have down in the basement! Follow me
MAN: But doctor, I thought this was a Pagliacci tweet
THERAPIST: It can be two things

From a pamphlet from 1836 that blames abolitionists for the rising tension over slavery; "So much for the tolerant left!"

You simply love to see it.

Mixing the two hobbies I should spend more time doing with a surprisingly character-rich take on a very dumb (complimentary) setting. Galaxy in Flames by Ben Counter.

My decades based Solar Auxilia project continues! These heckin minis are totes the 2010th Legion command squad, colored in the traditional Millennial Grey. #warhammer #minipainting

Airport delays aren't all bad! A Central California noir (that old genre) with characters you really might know (for good or for ill). Get Lost by Justin Halpern!

In a quick trip to a Seattle book store I snagged a book I missed when I read Vonnegut last year-- THE Vonnegut! Very funny and full of "woof." heavy statements. Also snagged this quote that means a lot as a dad!

It's amazing what I can do without interruptions or literally any other entertainment options! Read this entirely on the plane to the PNW and liked it. Basically the toxic masculinity version of Jane Austen 'just people going to each others' houses' though.

Another mini for the other boy, this time he picked out the model and the colors but I did it all since 3 year olds aren't known for their fine motor skills

Okay so a nesting doll of analogy here but:

This is nothing like Catch-22 but like Kurt Vonnegut wrote Asteroid City. Joseph Heller writes about an author with nothing to write, struggling through multiple failed starts and ruminating on aging and writing and creation and it's all very good.

Back to the fiction. Liked this one too but it felt time-LY while the other one felt time-LESS. Stories to smoke cigarettes to.
