We're but a few staples away from having the Kitty Kondo(tm) completed!
It's game night, so Beloved and the family have some extra hours in which to bond with the fine feline that has caused NINE WEEKS of anguish and effort from us.
I am going to ENJOY being a blob this weekend. Snuggled up with my new kitty and finding her a name.
Hell, I might even post pictures.
But for now, I watch for Chaos' bus... and then get on with stapling mesh into place.
Stick a fork in me, I'm DONE.
You know, after seeing how humans break video games, aliens shouldn't ve so surprised by the dumb things humans think of to solve problems. Also, they should practically expect said dumb things to work. -- Anon Guest
There is a saying, If it's dumb and it works, it wasn't that dumb. It should be no surprise at all that the Humans were responsible for coining it. Humans have a song celebrating how they do, or did, 'all the dumb things'. Reports of

So.
Mayhem is home sick with what's looking like a contender for the Ekka Flu. Yay. We didn't even go, and he has it. He's going to be helping me with my bullshit as the day progresses.
I also pln or getting a reserve roller support so Mayhem can join in with the bullshit.
And then... WE PAINT!
...I'll get the story done sometime

After a explanation it turns out human can use magic, but the earth has a natural 'magic jammer' in the atmosphere that blocks magic. Humans then push the know magic research to the max and open new doors for the galaxy in magic. -- Anon Guest

"What was that?" demanded the Human.

I think my left leg is over its tantrums for now. Just in time for my right leg to pull shenanigans on me. It would just even things out.
But no, wait. My left hip hasn't had a tantrum yet.
Sigh. It's not easy getting old and still needing to do stuff.
Today... I

Morality is not a binary switch. One does not flip from 'good' to 'evil' or vice versa. There's a sliding scale of evil that moves from refusing to tip your restaurant waitstaff through parking in disabled parking spaces to outright deciding that hungry people need to deserve to eat before one can give them food. After that comes definite evil, like not paying employees

Ekka week starts this Friday (also a D&D night), and the following Wednesday, I have my Beloved home to work on things. By this weekend, I should have everything they have made so far painted and ready to rock and/or

"Huh. How about that?"
This surprised remark was not unexpected over morning nourishment hours, since many were prone with checking their news updates. Someone, somewhere, was bound to find out something interesting that was worthy of a similar comment. Therefore, Grux, who preferred to huddle over their morning nutrition and stimulants, said, "How about what?"
"Humans..." this delivered with a seemingly mandatory eye-roll. "There's

Throughout the week, I have two objects to paint, six if you count each individual angle-iron foot for the final unit of the walkway.
We have a table/chair/bench for the interior of the actual cage and I'm counting that as a pure win.

"What?" said the Kobold who, at this point in her journey, didn't think herself worthy of a name. She would, in time, become known as Lady Anthe, but that time is not now. She is learning, and these are earlier, more painful days.

One particular species has a SEVERE negative reaction to capsaicin. So, when a pirate group of them attack a ship, one human creates an air-locked cage covered in hot sauce. -- Anon Guest
"Wait, so they're level three Havenworlders? And they're trying to conquer this ship?" Human Jo seemed very confused.
"They do have superior weaponry," argued the Captain. "It is wiser to allow them to take what they want."
"Bugger that," said Human Sam. "They want trouble? We'll give 'em trouble.

My noodly little writer arms are hurting.

There won't be any tales out of me before dark, if then.

"What level are they? Three? Three point five?"
"Four point five," said the underling. "Most of that is because of N'Oz and Australia."
"Pfft. Myths and legends. Everyone with a Deathworlder label exaggerates about their abilities. We're four point five. We can take them."
Those last eight words may well have been filed under "Famous Last Words". The underling, who
