My first Lego set ever. And not to brag, but it said 9+ years on the box, but I built it in 4 hours.

I've had a really tough couple weeks, but at least I could try to free my mind of worries (with no avail, to be honest) creating a little platformer. Far from finished, of course, but at least the tutorial/first level is playable. @v3x3d.bsky.social's assets are really versatile.

Screenshot of a little platformer I've been working as of late. It depicts the protagonist, an enemy (snake), some pick-ups (orbs), and scenery.

Another screenshot, this time showing an area with variety of trees and a Shrine in an islet.

So, after some edits, I was able to create a small shrine for the protagonist to visit once a while. Base Sprites used: @vectoraith.bsky.social

Having @gailsimone.bsky.social writing She-Ra? Shut up and take my money. I'd pre-order the omnibus.

This works! It's so stupid!

The idiom "there's always another ball" generally implies that even after encountering obstacles or setbacks, there will always be new opportunities and challenges to overcome. It suggests a resilient mindset, where one can refocus and persevere, knowing that there are always new possibilities or fresh starts available.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
"There's always another ball": is an idiom that means you should not despair or give up on your goals or ambitions, even if you face setbacks or failures.
"There's always another ball game": is a similar idiom that emphasizes that things can change drastically and that a fresh start or new approach is needed, according to Collins Dictionary and Cambridge Dictionary.
The phrase "there's always another ball" can be used to encourage someone to keep trying, even when they have experienced challenges.
It is a way to emphasize the idea of resilience and the ability to bounce back from difficult situations.

Might be niche, but I love Street Fighter: the Storytelling Game's cover.

Really? Mary Marvel could have derived her powers from Sappho? And they changed that?! WHY?!

Screenshot from the Wikipedia (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Marvel) with the following text:

In Superhero Comics of the Golden Age, Mike Benton writes:

Rod Reed, the executive editor of Fawcett comics at the time that Mary Marvel was created, recalled that, originally, the letter "S" in Shazam was to have stood for Sappho. Rather than give his young heroine the questionable powers of a Greek poet from the isle of Lesbos, Reed suggested that Selene, goddess of the moon, might be a more wholesome choice.

Now, you face the wolf within and struggle to keep your humanity intact. But with each passing day, the line between who you are and the beast you could become grows ever thinner.

Mina Harker was looking down on me as she sat atop me while I was taking a nap. She was surely asking herself where was the tuna I (didn't) promised her.

Watabou for the rescue. After tinkering with the generator for a while, I got what I was looking for -- watabou.itch.io/village-gene... With this, I'm about to finish this micro-supplement in tri-fold format for Thorns & Terrors.

Map of Ravenwatch village, setting of a tri-fold micro supplement for Thorns & Terrors I'm writing. It shows an aerial image of the village, with its points of interest highlighted.

Just a section of the finished map. It's done, at last. The complete map has the dreadful swamp with its river delta. I really hate making deltas. #TTRPG

Pérola approves whatever you are doing now, and believes you are doing a great job. Keep going. #cat #blackcat

My cat Mina is a lot better, and decided to follow me wherever I went today, finally settling amidst my embroidery stuff. Here she is, asleep and purring.
