I'm already enjoying it. I've learned my lesson that I need to read the physical books rather than the audiobooks though. Too much stuff I need to see the written word for. Haha.

I have to admit, I've just pretty much started my dive into Discworld. (Been reading The Wee Free Men and Going Postal.) Which book is the luggage from?

I'd certainly give it a shot! Could be fun. I think the hardest part would be figuring out the logistics of fitting into the treasure chest and still being mobile.

A drawing of a mimic in the form of a treasure chest, who has one large red central eye and little pointy teeth around the opening in the chest. A black cat is rubbing against the side of the mimic. They are in a dungeon with a light source coming from above. In the foreground is the blur of a rat running down a piece of rubble. In the background to the right is a silhouette of a skeleton with glowing eyes. There are brick archways on either side of the image and large pillars more toward the center, behind the mimic and cat.

A little Final Fantasy IV fanart of the Dark Elf. Yoshitaka Amano's designs are so good.

A drawing of an elf character, his lower body completely in shadow. He has long pointy ears, long flowing hair, big yellow eyes, and a creepy smile with a long tongue jutting out from his mouth There is a caption at the bottom similar to a subtitle that says "I will kill you all!"

This is influenced by my time working Doordash/UberEats/Instacart. If I received less than 5 stars, I'd basically only be offered orders that would equal out to probably around $5/hour after expenses, until that rating cleared out.

020

Ben 💀 @bendrawslife.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

I've defaulted to my gig-app rating scale on most things for a while now. Essentially, if I can't justify rating 5 stars, I just won't rate it. Since these apps treat receiving anything under 5 as "you don't deserve to live", the only time I rate less than 5 is if there is a genuine concern.

The only group of people that I'm genuinely disgusted by and also kind of jealous of is people who talk on the phone in public with speaker phone on. That is genuinely a perspective on life I could never fathom to understand.

It'd be cool if we could somehow shape our society to reward being decent (and put some of those people in charge of things) rather than the exact opposite of that.

Ben 💀 @bendrawslife.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Perfect. I can't remember where I saw it but someone said (essentially) that the more you troll them, the less time they have to post stupid shit elsewhere. So basically, keep up the good work of wasting their time. Haha.

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.

Yep, I'm always ready with a notes app to write it down. It's just once I get time, the idea feels stale and has lost all of the excitement it initially had. 😓

I went so long thinking tattoos have to have deep meaning. Then finally at 40 I got my first tattoo, a cicada shell, followed by a moogle, then a Simpsons reference tattooed by my brother all within 1 year. I feel like I speedran deep meaning to goofy nonsense pretty quick.

I watched The Devil Wears Prada 2 on the plane ride home and I was quite intrigued by the setup of the commentary, but it absolutely dropped the ball at the end with the 'solution.' Oh, and Andy's relationship had the least chemistry I've seen in a while. Still, a fun watch for a plane ride.

On the plane, the guy sitting next to me turned on Fox News then napped listening to it. Mind-boggling. Later, he switched it to CNN and napped again. Gotta balance out the nightmares?

Oh yeah! Here's a Werehare/Wererabbit I drew for last week's drawing challenge. He is an absolute scourge to farms and backyard gardens everywhere. #wererabbit #werehare #anthropomorphic #animalart

A drawing of a humanoid/anthropomorphic rabbit person, leaping into the air, in front of the moon. The werehare/wererabbit has one visible eye which is completely red. The moon behind it has a red ring around it. The character is wearing only some ripped jean shorts or jorts, if you prefer. A leaf is hanging out of the rabbit's mouth.

Two points: 1. Sometimes it's actually good to not like the main character. Stop. 2. I'm honestly surprised they're not going to milk this into a trilogy.

I'm making my own hand lever block printing press (there really isn't a concise name for it apparently) and I'm not saying I bit off more than I can chew with this project, but the chewing is taking a lot more math than I thought. Maybe the metaphor got a little lost there.
