If you’re curious what the status of your referendum special ballot is after you’ve mailed it in, the status page that you got a link to after your request for one also lets you know if it’s been received and counted.

Case in point: this is the skin offered in their Ultimate Founder’s Pack. I asked the team if my lady hero could wear the uniform versus the lingerie, and was told no.

We built the Goonies Lego set over the last week or so. It’s a fun build with lots of neat functionality and secrets! It can be a bit of a pain to move it once it’s built, but it’s a great display piece.

We have *so many* #Lego builds on our plate, but we had the opportunity to get the Black Pearl for “cheap” and absolutely had to buy it. Now, which epic build do we do first: Arkham Asylum, Enterprise D, or the Pearl?

Ended up going with the Arkham Asylum set over the Black Pearl. It was cheaper, had more pieces and twice as many minifigs, and Lego has double Insider Points on Batman shit until the 20th. Can’t wait to build this sucker!

Got my Wolverine #1 (1988) and #2 (1988) back from CGC. 7.0 for #1 was expected, the covers have some imperfections and chafing, but 9.0 for #2 was a pleasant surprise! Considering I’ve had them for, like, 37 years (got them new on the newstand as a kid) they’re in remarkable condition.

I know this sucks, Calgary Heritage, but we still have to get out there in droves. I usually vote NDP, for all the good it’s done, but this election we have to soundly reject the Conservatives’ far right policies and nonsense slogans. Supporting the Liberals is how we do that in our riding.
