Advantages of having multiple colorways of the same sculpt in modular toys – easy summer fashions! Presenting Fishstik from the Mighty Maniax line in some snappy pink surf jams!

Fishface Frieda thought they were early, but Grid Enforcer takes this candid snap of them unawares.

The Grid Enforcer has found a place off grid to take a breather. A cool cave building is just the spot on a hot day like today. I hope they brought a nice lunch.

This land is my home—I feel it, somehow, in my bones.

The ‘Mostro’ at Bomarzo, 1949
THE PARK OF THE MONSTERS, or “Parco dei Mostri,” in the Garden of Bomarzo was not meant to be pretty. Commissioned in 1552 by Prince Pier Francesco Orsini, it was an expression of grief designed to shock.

I am missing my boys today. Pye’s birthday is soon.
I keep looking to see if they are on the stairs, or thinking to check water levels for them with the warm temps, or I just want on or both of them to sit on my lap and cuddle.
My heart is really breaking. Pye has been gone for a month now. Newton passed over two years ago. When does it get easier? I don’t want to get a new pet until our mourning has eased at least some, but that might be quite a while.

Samurai facial armor (sōmen), mislabelled “executioner’s mask,” iron, 18th–19thcentury (?), London, Science Museum Group Collection, obj. no. A129822, The Board of Trustees of the Science Museum.
Two ‘executioner’s masks’ housed in the collection of the pharmaceutical entrepreneur and philanthropist Henry Solomon Wellcome (1853–1936) have recently been exposed as historiographical forgeries manufactured in the nineteenth-century.
Previously these objects were believed to have covered the face of the executioner during capital punishment, either to disguise his identity or to protect him from the ‘evil eye’ of the dead convict. In an article for History Today, Alison Kinney argued that such notions do not match with early modern written and visual documentation but rather with Victorian ‘gothic’ sensibilities.

Hey, a friend of ours gave us a bobblehead of her! Karen is the first doll / toy we have of a person we know and currently socialize with on the regular. She will get a place of honor somewhere near Edgar Allan Poe and Count Chocula, I suspect. (unless she would rather hang out with Mothman and Bigfoot )
Grilled out with her, @maximillian_deersteak , Leslie and the Inlaws for a nice day of tasty corn on the cob, veggie burgers (the rest got ribs), cornbread, baked potatoes, and baked beans! The local farms don’t have 5hat quality corn just yet, so I suspect it was brought from the Carolinas. We don’t usually get good corn here until around July 4 via Swann Farms.
They all went on a walk by the bay, but my back is tricking up, so I remaing back here with Larry to post this and talk about trains, ships and history.

Our first game of #smallworld in a few years and we are pretty well-matched. Next trick, drag Amy into the mix.
Also in the works, catan, potion explosion, carcassonne and pandemic
Any other android tablet compatible board games? I’m thinking galaxy trucker and seeing if I can find a version of m.u.l.e.
