    No, I'm not saying that young people are the most oppressed individuals in the West. It would be a gross distortion of what "oppression" means and while it's funny when Bill Watterson makes Calvin say it when his parents are making him do his homework, it has no bearing on reality.

    This said, I agree with this MLK quote. The law isn't morally neutral, and while your parents' law is more likely to be just than not because of the love bond, a country's law is less likely to be just than not because it is written by people of a specific class, often against people of lower classes.

    If #LEGO are my love language and I send people LEGO for money through my online storefront, am I a LEGO sex worker?

    ♲ @FoldableHuman@twitter.com: If I'm thinking about switching to Windows should I jump in with 11, or will I need to start from the beginning to understand the lore?

    I'm sorting LEGO while listening to The Offspring and chatting on Discord with a bunch of people I met on my first real online community about 15 years ago, so I'm hard at work conjuring 2005 me.

    It is, but I don't know the probably good reasons they couldn't go with just one of them.

    Oh no, that’s the worst! All that gamble and you have nothing left to show for it… 😩

    I still like the game, but I can definitely see why I don’t come back to it more often. Combats are cool but the inconsistence of rewards casts a shadow over them.

    Thanks for the recommendation, I played the campaign to its end with the starting team, tried another game with a different team but it proved too difficult for me to figure it out.

    Someone playing FTL: Faster Than Light on Twitch made me want to play again, and boy I sure missed being completely at the mercy of RNGesus. The problem for me is that it makes actual victories less satisfying because I know how much it depends on getting good encounters.

    Regarding Dall-E and Midjourney, I think I preferred the time where obscure computing was used to generate images no sane human artist would have drawn by themselves.

    While this MOC is getting some eyeballs, let me plug my #LEGO shop: store.bricklink.com/MrPetovan

    I sell mostly restored used sets and stickered parts, but I started selling regular parts, minifigures and instructions as well. Shipping outside the US is pretty expensive but I will make an effort for #Fediverse friends!

    I don't need the money as much as I need shelf space, so I can be accommodating.

    I started working on this model in February 2021. My goal was to maximize the amount of parts I could use from my own stash, so I first recreated the model in Stud.io from the instructions, figured out the part I could use any color for, and started collecting the parts. I initially started with the tractor only because I figured it was the most interesting part of the model and had only 25% of the total amount of parts, enabling me to control the spend.

    This took me several months for the tractor, because I had a few bulk bins to sort and I was hoping to find parts for the model. Plus I had other MOCs to buy parts for first, so it went to the end of the queue.

    I finally pulled the trigger and ordered the rest of the parts for the tractor in January 2022. It took me a while to then get around to build it even though it only took me a few hours. It looked good, but a little naked without the trailers, so I repeated the process with the trailers. I ordered the remaining parts early June 2022 and it took me several hours to put it together last week given the sheer amount of parts to assemble even if it was a tad repetitive.

    This is the start to get the instructions: www.brickvault.toys/products/t…

    And then BrickLink is your friend to get the parts: www.bricklink.com

    The estimated cost of $350-400 for the parts is accurate, I paid less because I used about half of them from my personal collection I assembled from buying bulk bins off Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace and NextDoor.

    I will take that compliment, on the whole I preferred Mad Max 2 to Mad Max 4 except for the vehicles that ended up having more characters than the humans.

    Finally finished building the #LEGO MOC The War Rig from Mad Max: Fury Road by @SerialBuilder_ and it is MASSIVE. I’m happy I was able to hide a ton of various color parts from my collection inside the model. 😋

    The hyper local social network NextDoor recently rolled out a fuzzier search engine for its personal ads and while I don’t have to separately search for “lego” and “legos” anymore, I’m now getting a bunch of results for tables with “legs” I have no use for. 🤷♂️
