…i’ve seen some pretty epic shows by some pretty epic bands, but the last time i saw muse play, i did not expect to see a F*CKING HUNDRED-FOOT MECHA lunge out from the stage…

…trinitrons are curved, just two-dimensionally…

…i have a 2005 elise, a 2008 NC, and a 2017 ND: i try not to be a dick, but my wife says i drive like one…

…if you’re into paper books (and a hefty table) the DK complete world atlas includes a lot of geographic information, or if you prefer a dryer, more-authoritative presentation, the times world atlas is the grandaddy of the format…

…it looks like DK also offers a digital version of their previous editon…

(i have the millenium editions of both atlases, and they’re both fantastic tomes, but i think the DK complete atlas is more of what you’re looking for)

…it’s not so much that those traits are considered feminine as that they’re not considered masculine: thicker body / facial hair and a deeper voice are hallmarks of post-pubescent testosterone, and considered indicative of the transition from boyhood to manhood…

…note that those transitions aren’t the same across all ethnic groups; east asian populations, for example, generally exhibit less-pronounced post-pubescent dimorphism than west asian populations…

…it’s what he avoids: russian carrots are accompanied by russian sticks and trump’s kompromat runs decades deep, capital-punishment deep at this point…

…his only course of survival is to double-down on whatever his handlers ask of him…

…northern kentucky was essentially rural ohio when i was growing up…

…i tie back my hair or tuck it behind my ears when i eat…

…bin laden won…

…it’s a totally normal reaction after hvaing alena…

…i don’t see a drake on the chart…

(no, not the f*cking rapper)

…he’s been a known russian asset for decades, openly broadcasting it to the world for at least nine years, and a plurality of the electorate are totally fine with that…

…back in the CRT era i needed at least a 72Hz refresh rate to not feel any discomfort; that doesn’t exactly correlate with framerates on modern LCD displays but i think it’s a good proxy for the threshold of general perceptiblity…

…are greater framerates smoother?..sure, especially in my peripheral vision, but 72 FPS is generally good-enough beyond which returns start diminishing…

…fake window shutters are f*cking stupid…

…ah, i can’t recall whether rivendell included two separators, but it was also packaged in sub-boxes with separate instruction books, which made teamwork a snap…

…we (my wife + myself) were so disappointed by barad-dûr afterward!..we didn’t buy it, so we haven’t built it, but based on the photos it’s neither inspired nor crafted to the same exceptional standard as rivendell…

…why does it include three pry-tools?..

…came here to post the same: we have a lot of flagship lego sets but rivendell is an unparalleled masterpiece, so exceptional that it makes almost everything else seem unworthy of shelf space by comparison…
