Bicycled, instead of drove, to the local bicycle shop, to buy new tires and tubes for a couple of bikes with old, rotted tires... could not bear to have them not usable at all. #BikeTooter
Well, that did not work out well, LOL. Wonder what I did wrong. Maybe my pressure gage is off. #boom (Update: so, my thought here is my failure to properly seat the tire on the rim ALL the way, combined with, too much pressure (popping out the tire and letting it explode). That said, it would have popped soon ANYWAY because the rubber on the rim was rotted out and spokes poking through. Lesson learned! (now i have to buy a new tube for the other bike I am fixing, and rim tape for that one, too).
#DoctorWho with #Boom commentary: Steven Moffat telling something about his second (!) script for Gatwa saying "he gives it the full Capaldi" AND NOW I CAN'T WAIT !!!
We've seen four episodes now of the "new new" #DoctorWho and RTD's take/vision of this era and I have to say, with the exception of #Boom, I remain very much on the fence. It's too "magical" for my liking, it doesn't do a lot of sci-fi stuff or concepts. And it has the usual silliness dialed to 11 (or 12), all amplified by RTD's sledgehammer writing style. It's somewhat ok and at times interesting, even charming, but overall I still don't know if it's for me. Which is fine.
Why I enjoyed Ncuti Gatwa's portrayal of #DoctorWho almost from the start, it was #Boom that really "clicked" him into character for me. Brilliant lines (by Steven Moffat) and fantastic line delivery, love this man.
Hoping Ncuti Gatwa can display more than his usual two expressions tonight. The serious Masters Of The Air one and the open mouthed blank Doctor Who one. Steven Moffat should give him something better to get his teeth into than Snot Babies and Doctor Glee.
#Boom in a nutshell: Don't even move. Move and you're dead. The landmines explode fast, faster than you could believe. Don't stretch your back, don't step away, and don't move! #DoctorWho
Justice Merchan: I've signed the order to show cause. Now, the texts?
Prosecutor: We are introducing them as business records. It was part of the regular business of AMI. These are discussions between co-conspirator Dylan Howard and Ms. Rodriguez

Sonic boom in Ventura County - SpaceX... Did it blow up? (Update, no apparently the returning booster caused the boom) #SpaceX#VenturaCounty#SantaBarbara#boom
Happy 30th to Doom.
The game's impact on the gaming scene cannot be overstated, but enough's been said about that. I've been planning to honour not just it, but also Boom, the source port that enabled the modding community to move forward, as it's 25 years old now.
Unfortunately, I am feeling sick. so my tribute WAD's gonna arrive at a later date.
