"For months now, I’ve been using Black Dragon to take my pics for my blog.  While I’m definitely no expert, I was able to take decent shots in BD calling on my knowledge of previously taking pics in Firestorm and watching numerous YouTube videos regarding Black Dragon.  Firestorm recently updated their viewer to include EEP so I thought I’d try using it for the pics for this blog post and I’m not at all unhappy with the outcome."

"I just collected the update of the Akeruka Advanced M01 male mesh head. The current version is 3.5 and I never picked up the version that came in between this one and the first one. I guess there have been some subtle changes to the rigging, which explains why my shapes for it are looking slightly weird now (no mister director, I am NOT ready for my close up!). Oh well, I do love a little update project! I won’t give you a full list of credits at the end of this post, but I’ll leave some hints along the way." Read more on the blog.

I noticed some changes, too, in the village of Amakura, linked to main Hiraya." Read more on the blog.

"fernando sdrigotti is our guest today. chris marker fan, hater of progressive rock [allegedly!!!], lover of minor literatur[s] and master of synthesizing complex thoughts in short stories that just 100% nail the experience we all share, not only since social media started to dominate everything: a sense of being in and out of place and time, a feeling of not being at home in one place but possibly any place?"

Social distancing, masks, vaccines, tracing via testing are all practical steps to take in preventing the spread of diseases and all are the product of scientific research.
