    The last research paper I worked on has published at last.

    The process is REALLY slow. I finished all my work on this 3 years ago.

    This one uses a lot of my histology and in-situ hybridization with RNAscope results.

    But no more science for me. Now I build houses and driveways... and rip them apart too! It's a sort of yin-yang thing I've got going here.

    A comedic scene from a new Clouseua story I'm fiddling with...

    I just came up with this, and imagining Peter Sellers delivering the line had me laughing for 5 minutes straight.

    Clouseau, "For you see, the murderer was... the bullet!"

    Guy in room, "The bullet?"

    Clouseau, "Of course, no one would suspect the bullet of firing itself!"

    Woman in room, "But that... that's madness!"

    Last call for Bronycon items up on Ebay!

    I'll be delisting all remaining MLP items Sept 1st to focus entirely on selling my huge stash of collectible magazines, which take up vastly more space than the MLP items. Everything here fits into a single flat box I can pick up with one hand. The magazines... weigh over 700 lbs total. Sooooo, kinda makes sense to deal with those ASAP!

I don't know which series has been more disappointing this season... · 1:32am May 21st, 2017

... Pony or Doctor Who.

Both have thrown out long-developed characterization (though Doctor is much more guilty since it's 50 years of continuity vs 6) for episodic plots, and given us annoying secondary characters more important than the main ones... because they're liked by someone running the show, not because they deserve it... and the obsessed fans still pretend both series are perfection despite steadily decreasing audiences and critical dismissal.

It's to the point with both that I don't even feel like bothering talking about why the episodes don't work because it's clear the remaining fanbase and the show runners don't care about the quality of the production.

Oh well, at least the final season of "Samurai Jack" has been wonderful. But then again, the core writers and creators are involved with it, so they know everything about it. The vision of completion was there from the beginning, so the path is clear.
