Not a bug, but cool baby bananas (clustered at the top.) I think the big thing at the bottom is the banana tree ovipositor.
Uh oh. The Supergirl trailer has dueling beams. That’s generally an ill portent.
Sorry Linkedin, I'm already 90% of the way to walking off a bridge. I don't think I'll be checking in today.
Ah, of course. It wants a "Random Time" node. How silly of me. I'm sure there are at least different params to justify the existence of the node. oh

For a long time there were exactly 2 Erik Robsons online. One ran a delightful wine bar in Doubling. This is him. But I'm used to him looking like the top and left 2 images. I'm partially face blind, so I can't really parse the lower right image.

You know, for Tempest! (Please pretend I took the time to Photoshop this device into a screen capture with Tim Robbins from Hudsucker.)
