A Sony Inzone H9 BTW, nabbed <ยฝ price on Amazon with slightly damaged packaging. They're OKish out the box, but set them up right and they're really quite excellent๐
Proper surround sound depends on the shape of your ears apparently, hence a phone app that scans your lugholes & does literal magic๐คท

A green bin sailing overhead against a backdrop of house roofs. If God had meant for them to fly etc etc etc.
Green bin day and it's windy out. An exciting time for all.

I like the grooved pattern. Reminds me of those vertical wind turbines you sometimes see in hi-tech lo-fi sci-fi, much favoured by resistance types on the outskirts of The Known Galactic Expanseโข and such.
I hope you attract many heroic SpaceBirds and witness their adventuresโบ๏ธ

That's the problem with psychotic face-eating leopards. Nobody expects them to carry on the psychotic face-eating because they briefly focused on murdering people they also don't like much. The constant murdering thing was probably a bit of a red flag๐
The season as a whole felt rushed though, yes๐

See that's the bit that puzzles me - she was always like that. As soon as she didn't get her own way she simply started murdering people. I mean yikes - even from that early scene with her brother having molten gold poured over him. She was absolutely*insane* from the very beginning๐

I thought the last season was *ace!* I was genuinely baffled folks were surprised about Daenerys being psychotic after, y'know, her long history of deeply disturbing, psychotic behaviour from literally the first season onwards. She was an absolute snapcase from the beginning๐

Cargo cult - Wikipedia
We have flattened tarmac of uniform widths that go in many exciting directions. They certainly *look* like roads but I'd hesitate to say they fill the full utility that word implies.
My suspicion is they started as some kind of Cargo Cult long before I moved here.

I love the completely arbitrary 'motorcycle' designation to make it more exciting. That captures the role of imagination in early 8bit gaming perfectly๐
Also I think its advanced procedural generation algorithms may have played a pivotal role in the design of my town's ring-road layout.

So portable, the best games at good settings, AND future proof?
What they need is, in fact, a desktop PC and a caravan, and that's going to be difficult on ยฃ1600.
Maybe some kind of stylish shed / skateboard affair?

ALT: a star wars character is saying `` it 's a trap '' .
I used to try and answer these by asking what they wanted to do with it. A mistake.
It always went 1 of 2 ways:
ME: For your light requirements Laptop X. Decent screen, subยฃ400, good battery life
THEM: Those specs are rubbish compared to this ยฃ1k+ one the ๐ข๐ฅ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐ต๐ด say I need. I'll buy that instead.

You can totes kill peeps more than once though, if you rig it so a potion bottle breaks on the ground when they die. They sort of go "UUURKK!!!" & instantly revive with 1HP๐

Surprisingly I don't actually organise mine now, apart from grouping series' together. I used to have North of 2000 books & did then, but I've only got a hundred or so paper ones now so I sort of... know where each one is at any given time?

Preliminary experiments show that if you throw a rotten Waterdavian cheese wedge at a badger it gets startled and runs away. Also Jahira disapproves, which is understandable because the badger was her friend, but odd because she's the one who threw it.
