In June 2021 I roughed out the proportions and deck heights for the flagship of the #steampunk bedtime stories I was telling my kids 10 years ago. A year later the ship has many lovely greebles. #blender3d #blender3dart

Rewatching ST:DS9 A candidate for Bajor’s new spiritual leader objects to Keiko’s scientific interpretation of the wormhole.

Ambiguous language in journalism: Monkey Pox and Camel Privates
