dear_playerDear Player-Person Who Has Been A Pal For Some Time Now:
Just wanted to check in on ya to see how you're doing! Raph can't help but be a little, ah, concerned over your current routine. If we can call it a routine— maybe a recent routine? Something you picked up on an' off, more or less?
Whatever, skipping ahead: I know you've been stressing out, but I think it would be good to get a little nap in once in a while! Or have a completely normal sleep schedule! Seriously though, you need to get some regular hours in! It's like training! Training takes time an' dedication!
If anything, don't be like Donnie!

NS: Predator Badlands trailer
Jul. 21st, 2025 05:49 pmshakalooloo posting in scans_dailyMaybe not directly comics-related, but I posted scans of a Predator comic only a few days ago, so I reckon it counts. This movie looks pretty fun to me, so far!

I scheduled two interviews today
Jul. 22nd, 2025 12:34 pmconulyWith a generous leave at one commute schedule and 2 hours between them
But then it turned out the first one had inexplicably been scheduled in GMT so I didn’t eat and barely made it out the door. And I’ll have to jog to get from one to the other, too!

So! Please distract me with an AU.
Star Trek isinfamous for the Mirrorverse, an alternate universe our protagonists sometimes find themselves in where, to quote the Wikipedia article:
What is your character's Mirror Universe self like? If your pup (as they usually are) were to wind up in the Mirrorverse, how would they cope - and would they find a way out?
So! Please distract me with an AU.
Star Trek is
"The characters in the Mirror Universe are aggressive, mistrustful and opportunistic in personality. Whereas the Star Trek universe depicts an optimistic future in which the Earth-based United Federation of Planets values peace, co-operation and exploration, episodes set in the Mirror Universe feature the human-dominated authoritarian Terran Empire which values war, despotism and conquest instead."

Richard Gott III’s methodology suggests 80-year-old Queen Elizabeth will live until somewhere between 2032 and 2066, a European heatwave sets a record that will surely stand in perpetuity, and Profumo’s demise at an advanced age reminds Britons of the dire consequences for politicians of scandal… nil.
