How to sell a laminator
alt text
Advert for a laminator. A presenting female is sat on the floor behind the laminator with her arms reaching into the back of the machine. At the front it appears that her hands are emerging from the machine and currently being laminated.
It’s hard to tell now. OpenAI released a new image generator that’s incredibly good at hands, continuity, text. So it’s about the get a lot worse.
I’m pretty sure that it is based upon how stretched the distal areas of the radial and ulnar regions are. We should be able to see metacarpals before the laminator.
The more I look at it the more the legs seem off. Also the radiator back left seems to have odd foreshortening on it, and the plug cable seems too contrived.
Other than that this would be a very good idea to make in an analog way.

4th Columbo!

WHAT IF COLUMBO COULD REGENERATE LIKE THE DOCTOR? 1st Columbo: Groucho Marx 2nd Columbo: Danny Kaye 3rd Columbo: Sid Caesar 4th Columbo: Peter Falk (obviously he's the fourth, I mean come on, both in terms of iconicism and timing) 5th Columbo: Jamie Farr 6th Columbo: Judd Hirsch 7th Columbo: Howard Hesseman 8th Columbo: Mandy Patinkin 9th Columbo: Eugene Levy 10th Columbo: Mark Ruffalo 11th Columbo: Adam Brody 12th Columbo: Jason Alexander 13th Columbo: Natasha Lyonne 14th Columbo: Mark Ruffalo again 15th Columbo: Omar Epps NOT PICTURED: Alan Arkin ("War Columbo"), Whoopi Goldberg ("Fugitive Columbo"), Laura Linney (possible 16th Columbo), Don Adams/Warren Christopher (played first and second Columbos, respectively, in "The Five Columbos" TV special)
this is fantastic
The villain shoots and kills Columbo. There is a bright flash, then the regenerated Columbo says "Just one more thing..."

on ha long bay

our overnight cruise was shortened to a day trip. The Ha Long Bay nautical authorities - with potential typhoon conditions forming - didn’t want a repeat of last July’s 32-fatality capsizing of a tourist boat in a full typhoon, and shut down all overnight traffic.
Weather both days this week turned out to be languid and calm, and so was the truncated cruise.

Meme from Muppet Christmas Carol where scrooge asks the boy what day it is.
first panel shows michael caine as scrooge, dressed in nightclothes and wearing a sleeping cap leaning out a window with one finger raised. the caption reads "You there, boy! What day is it?"
second panel shows a wider shot from below, showing more of the building and window of a stone building with snow on a ledge. it is clearly snowing. there is the back of a rabbit visible looking up at michael caine. the caption reads "It's anniversary of Richard Nixon's death, sir!"
third panel shows a close up on Michael Caine, he is smiling, showing a gold tooth, as it continues to snow. the caption reads "Then I haven't missed it."

A dark blue background. Hovering above is a large, orange space invader: one of those blocky pixel monsters from the classic arcade game. It is dropping neon green blocks. Below it, running away from the blocks, is a person, not pixelated, carrying a black umbrella. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".
Digging the classic arcade vibe!

A Vietnamese rooster poised on one leg with red and iridescent dark green feathers and a red comb eyes the viewer, a faded red arrow on the wall pointing to the bird.
Oh NICE photo.

[Personal] Magnolias for my ex
alt text
Watercolour of pink magnolias on a dark purple background.
Last September, I met at a woman through a dating site. On the first zoom call she told me that a week before we met up she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer and that I was allowed to run away.
Now I don't run away from stuff like that, and we very very quickly got into a very intense relationship. One month in, she started chemotherapy and things went downhill between the two of us. We split up in December. It wasn't very nice. She now has finished chemo, had one breast removed and is recovering - although it's officially stage four so the long-term prognosis isn't good.
But we stayed in touch, albeit at a distance. Tomorrow I'll be seeing her for the first time in months. I'm having lunch with her, together with a good mutual friend. The friend asked me if I would make a drawing for my ex so we could give it to her with a message. So this is what we're going to give her tomorrow. (top and bottom edge cut off so it's really straight and kind of nice at double postcard size.)

That’s gorgeous.
good luck; i hope it goes well.
i know it's tough navigating these things, especially when you're balancing empathy for an ex and protecting yourself at the same time.
beautiful work, by the way. i think she'll really appreciate it

Too long a haul for me, but that's pretty cool.
Technically commemorates a bigunit, but is not one itself.
