A Black Hole Destroys a Star (Illustration)
A disk of hot gas swirls around a black hole in this illustration. The stream of gas is what remains of a star that was pulled apart by the black hole. A cloud of hot plasma above the black hole is known as a corona.

US Politics that we are all tired of
Zomg of COURSE the images in Trump's awful NFTs were just stolen images with his face pasted on. 🤣

There are cases where that's annoying / exclusionary / privileged, and there are cases where that's entirely appropriate, I'd say. :)

Question of the day:
What is your happiest childhood memory?
The great thing is that if some buncha people do want to be a gated community in that sense (and who I am to say they shouldn't?), they can band together on some appropriate server(s) and do that!

Domestic violence and Institutional violence
“They thought they were building me a cage. Instead they were building me a pulpit,” McCarter tweeted in November, following Bragg’s initial announcement.
The reality, as McCarter now knows firsthand, is that there are too many women sitting behind bars simply because they were trying to survive. Advocates estimate that 90 percent of women incarcerated in New York have been subjected to domestic violence.

If one thing has been consistent across nearly 20 years of miniatures gaming, it's been my love of Sorcery, Rubrics, and Tzeentch.
I figured the best way I could do a proper comparison was with a photo of my first painted Rubrics (2003), versus the newer Rubric kit with a recent paint job. (2018)
My old work causes me physical pain, Masto. Don't say I never did anything for you.

@mistyswoman Does reporting even do anything anymore? (I did, though.)
