I was a fairly regular runner up until about year ago, and I've not had too many knee or ankle issues either. Trail running sounds fun. Might give it a go (once it's not fucking freezing here).
I'm sorry you're going through that. I'm in a pretty bad place myself, and have been for what feels like forever. I hope things get better for you.
Huh. I was diagnosed and in my 30s, and I pissed myself shortly after starting my meds. There was almost no warning, just zero to a hundred within the course of a minute. Hasn't happened since, just a heads up.
I hope these two achievements aren't related.
Definitely add to resume.
Baking or "baking"?
But how old are your knees and ankles?
It's because of Borat.
This seems to be a proprietary connector, so I'm not sure if there's an ISO standard designation (like DE9 or RS232). Mouser has these listed as SICMA Sealed Full Interconnect.
Here's a datasheet. Good luck!
Best guess: 24 pin ECU ECM
More lies.


Too kind, thank you. I have thought about getting a flea market booth to sell some of my work (and some of my weird junk hoard).
Thanks so much.
Many thanks.
That's a compliment fs. Thank you.

Ritual Skull


I wanted to do something for Halloween. This is the result.
I started by slapping some plastic wrap on the front of an anatomical skull model. This provided a form for the paper mache model, which I built up in layers using strips of newsprint and a PVA glue mixture.
After the paper mache was dry, I popped it off the form and filled it with spray foam. Since I knew I wanted to use phosphorescent paint for the eyes, I painted the inside of the eye sockets with white gesso. Once the gesso dried, I applied a few layers of phosphorescent acrylic paint to the eye sockets.
I then poked holes for the mouth stitching and glued strands of sisal twine into these holes (I should have done this part before filling the back with spray foam, but for some dumb reason I thought this way would be easier).
Once the stitches dried, I gave the whole piece a series of brown and blue acrylic washes, then dry brushed accents with bone and white. Next came the arcane symbols, which I slapped on with
Do you want Temu Pinhead to show up? *We have such deeply discounted sights to show you. *
Visitor Q.
I first saw it years ago at a goth movie night, and I've never witnessed a more uncomfortable audience reaction. Would still recommend.
This looks great, and I appreciate that you didn't just casually mention butter paneer pizza without following up with the details! I'm trying this soon.
Yeah, we ran short on spinach and the color was off as a result. I probably added too much turmeric as well.

Palak paneer and samosa


This was my first time making samosa, and they're wonky looking but delicious.

A very small map of some imaginary ruins


This started as a quick pencil sketch / fantasy cartography exercise; the line work was added as an afterthought. Approximately 8 x 7 cm.

Forest vibe


This started as a monochrome pencil sketch, but I then decided to experiment with backgrounds and color a bit.
