What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 25/09/2026OK so the Lucas Museum is now open to the public. This thing looks like concept art that was made reality. I used to park my car literally where they built it on the USC campus. I’m going as soon as possible. 040
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I suppose it’s illustrative about me, but I have seen all of one of these (2 seasons of Andor), most of 2 others, and a few of one other. I can also (and I think this is the point of dumb lists like this, ie to generate arguments/discussion) think of several shows that are better than most of these 210
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Here’s what I’ve been up to lately…I decided our three man IG squad needed a grenade launcher. 0201
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Fortunately, we are Americans, so we have a big fuck off vehicle that can fit all of us as well as an absurd amount of cosplay gear for the weekend! 030
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Cosplay pro tip: Make your Norse round shields the same size as road bike wheels and you have double duty carry cases already in your garage. 071
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Ok so for my getaway vehicle…it must be a Ferrari… 160
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Nice work, weather software…look the fuck outside and factor that in… 040
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Well it isn’t hobby related, but I just enjoyed a positively cinematic win playing PS5 F1 25…Verstappen looks like he has me on the line for the win at Interlagos (I’m driving the Ferrari, of course)…but Oh no! Let’s check the photo finish. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁😎😎 020
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Well, it’s August and that generally means Cosplay making season around our house. These Imperial Guard leg armor bits are at the “damaged but somehow perfectly clean” step of their development. They shan’t remain so. 0121
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 16/08/2026OK we purchased this scratching pad doodad for our cat…and when it was turned upside down, it became the perfect feline lounger. He loves it. 1173
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 07/08/2026OK so we are big Star Trek fans here in our house, and one thing my wife had when we got married ages ago was a set of 25 year Star Trek crew plates which we hung on the back wall of our theatre. For some reason…we didn’t have Sulu! Well, that error has been corrected. Cc @georgetakei.bsky.social 140
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 06/08/2026I have wondered for years how many cities/ states would wait until someone was killed (hopefully not a child) before they made some laws governing the operation of electric motorcycles within the city limits/ on highways. 020
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Here is Richard Petty in his Cheerios Charger showing everyone how to place templates FTW in our Gaslands 3e test game last night: 2170
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 02/08/2026It’s a sunny Sunday….we are play testing Gaslands 3e rules today….and always repost a Sweet Tooth! 050
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 01/08/2026And my wife brought me home this Ferrari 365 GTB4, which I really like precisely because I don’t like the color scheme at all and therefore the ghost of Enzo will be fine with me stripping it down and painting it red like it should be. 160
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Ladies and gentle men: I am officially declaring the commencement of the weekend. Well done to all this week. 151
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 26/07/2026@antmccrossan.bsky.social you forgot that Lidl Trek also wine the team GC 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 26/07/2026@antmccrossan.bsky.social I hope ASO considers how great it turned out to be to essentially end the race with the World’s Biggest Criterium. Start and end in the C-E is terrific. I don’t think anyone will miss 2 hours of 30kph parading through the outskirts of Paris. 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Note @antmccrossan.bsky.social that stage 21 is only 50pnts for the win, so Pedersen has the jersey sewn up. 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 25/07/2026C’mon @antmccrossan.bsky.social there are only 20 points at the finish for Pogacar and Carapaz has a 21 point lead 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Website sez no double points, @antmccrossan.bsky.social 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Here is some A+ Gaslands stuff right here: 1100
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 23/07/2026@antmccrossan.bsky.social it was Moncoutier in stage 13 and he won it 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Wonderful news. This was such an amazing place to see a film. I will definitely make a point to be in LA when it opens and find some suitably epic film to see on that monster screen. 020
Reposted by What we do in life…The New York Times @nytimes.com · 22/07/2026Sony Pictures Entertainment will reopen Hollywood's iconic Cinerama Dome theater in 2028 after a renovation. The venue closed in 2020 because of the pandemic. nyti.ms/4fq4D3z 3738
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 20/07/2026OK, so here is the Ferrari 296 GTB. As I mentioned, this model is just too beautiful to modify significantly, so I just made an earnest lil’ Grot driver. I couldn’t decide what to add to the rear & I don’t know what an experimental nuclear engine looks like, but this 3D print bit fit perfectly! 170
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 19/07/2026I mean, what should I expect from someone who writes for “The Economist” taking about The Odyssey. This is written like it’s a bad thing? 😄😄 130
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Some recency bias here, but [straps on helmet]: Project Hail Mary. OMG what a mess. I couldn’t leave as I was there with my wife, but thankfully I had a book to read on my phone (in dark mode, of course) 010
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 16/07/2026OK so continuing what is becoming Summer of the Grots, I finished up the driver for the Ferrari 296 GTB and this dude who will be desperately trying to escape some 40k doom…. 050
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 15/07/2026OK so I picked up this Ferrari 296 GTB when I was in Italy this spring. The car is simply too beautiful to alter very much for Gaslands (it has spring suspension!)….but I’m making a fun Grot driver for it. 0121
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 11/07/2026If I’m being honest, I have given myself several birthday gifts this year (it was one of the big ones 😎) Tonight I unboxed and set up this piece of chromed Italian art: 070
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 09/07/2026No point to the combination jersey these days, @antmccrossan.bsky.social as the modern yellow Jersey is almost always leading the combination of all the classifications. 000
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 04/07/2026OK, it’s July and that means Tour de France…great to hear the excellent voices of @antmccrossan.bsky.social & Nico Roche. So Ant, you might mention that Pogacar is attempting what has never been done in the 100+ years of the Tour: Showing up with a bleach blonde dye job and have a good race! 🏁😄😎 100
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 23/06/2026OK, when you want fast, you need look no further than the Striking Skarlett of the Squigga Rampante…the Skudaria FerrarOrk: 0103

What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Looking at the start of a three day weekend with a) lovely weather, b) new 40k Orks showing up any day, and what has been delivered just now? A new espresso machine to dial in and fiddle with! 😎🏁👍🏻 050

What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 14/06/2026OK, so while I was goofing off in the tropics, my clever wife decided that we should attend this Ren Faire on June 13th. It was Viking theme weekend, so that gave me 7 days to kit the three of us out as Vikings. I hammered out a bunch of stuff and had fun doing so. More ornaments for the game hall! 040
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Now that is speaking my language…Quote with your badass women: 1221
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 14/06/2026So we spent the day at a Renaissance Faire and I purchased some “puttees “ style leg wraps as part of my outfit. After all day in the heat…these things are really comfortable! 030
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 07/06/2026I love Prime! Making cosplay stuff today for a Ren Faire next weekend, and ordered some stuff for the project yesterday and just about when I was ready to need the stuff…up rolls that awesome grey truck! 030
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Well, I have returned to mobile data range after 8 days on the ocean. I think I might have found my new favorite place on earth… 190
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 27/05/2026OK, I’ve posted these before but…post some of your oldest models vs your latest stuff. (In my case my first two models done about 47 years ago!) 0264
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 26/05/2026OK, I have no idea who this person is, but anyone who has Crixus / Manu Bennet as their avatar gets the benefit of the doubt: @sindrieldon.bsky.social 020
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 26/05/2026OK so evidently everyone except me knew that this archway doodad was in Cabo San Lucas. It came suddenly into view and I’m thinking “well how ‘bout that? I’ve seen that before!” 🤣😎 020
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 26/05/2026OK so when I’m away from home and my games and hobbies (almost) I enjoy looking for cool models and ideas. I think, for RPG character models and similar, nobody is doing it better these days than Westfalia Miniatures…here’s their latest kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/wes...kickstarter.comDeathbringer MiniaturesA set of hand-sculpted 32mm miniatures printed in resin. 210
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Whilst enjoying a lovely afternoon of spectating sports in the sunshine in between naps…I had a curious visitor today: 050
What we do in life… @lionofflanders.bsky.social · 24/05/2026@nedboulting.bsky.social Once again, I’m blown away by the quality of the Giro commentary. I hope others in the industry appreciate how amazing Juacabo Guarnieri’s contribution is. He is by far the best “ex pro” counterpart currently calling races (Nico Roche is a close second) 000
