Starting work on laying down base colors for the VBAM fleets now that I think I have them resized how I like them. Heavy Cruisers are now around 70mm long (instead of 60mm), and everything has been sized up about 125% to follow suit.

A green hobby mat with various paints and glues strewn about haphazardly. There are a number of spaceship miniatures in various stages of preparation for painting, along with two paint brushes. A pair of pliers loom ominously in the bottom right hand corner of the frame, a warning to any miniature that dares get out of line.A pile of miniatures base coated in a mix of purple, green, blue, and gold on top of several pieces of parchment paper. A single ship is still attached to an alligator clip, lamenting the passing of its time in the spray booth and its uncertain future.

I've been in the mood to go back and finish up some missing ships for the Brindaki League from #VBAM. Here is the Dromedary supply destroyer. It's minimally armed, but carries a considerable amount of cargo for a ship its size.

El Sayed: "When it comes to trans rights, this is the right to get the health care that you need...It’s the right not to be discriminated against by your government because of who you are. Because what tends to happen is they come for theirs, then they come for yours"

The idea that we can assent to the taking away of anybody’s rights, and think that somehow the government won’t come for all of our rights, is itself the problem. And, look, I don’t need people to understand how they use their rights. I just need people to agree that the government shouldn’t be able to take any of our rights. I put my face on the ground thirty-four times a day, David. Most people don’t understand why I do it. I don’t need them to understand. I just want to have the right to do it. And when people decide that they want to take away my right to do that, I’ve got a problem.Now, I hope that everybody’s going to show up and say, No, no, no. You can’t stop that person or that community from reflecting and praying as they choose. Similarly, when it comes to trans rights, this is the right to get the health care that you need. That’s really what it comes down to. It’s the right to be who you are. It’s the right not to be discriminated against by your government because of who you are. Because what tends to happen is they come for theirs, then they come for yours, then they come for theirs. And at some point you live in a society where rights are negotiable, and that is not the America I was born in. It’s not the America I know and love. It’s not the America I’m going to allow somebody like Donald Trump to give us.

1. In the aftermath of forcing the Ohio Progressive Caucus to delete criticism of Amy Acton for calling trans girls "boys," progressives were promised a meeting with Acton. Now, we have learned she didn't show up, and kicked trans people out of the meeting. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The meeting was supposed to be Acton's way of making up for calling trans girls "boys."

Couldn’t sleep so I went out to do a 5 mile walk. Snapped this pic of the tyrannosaur skull I walk by every day. At one point they had it turned toward the window. Always neat to see what they’re working on.

The level of white-hot incandescent rage I now feel whenever anything AI related pops up on my screen (especially at the OS level) is nearly indescribable. I can't recall literally ANY new technology that has been so widely hated and yet so universally thrust upon the public. Can you?

"Abolish ICE" is now the moderate position. The progressive position is leaning towards, "Abolish ICE, and lock up every single ICE agent or administrator in their own gulags until they can be properly tried for crimes against humanity."
