A Girl And Her Boxxo, episode 4

In which Our Vending Hero is boxnapped and locked in a room with Our Unkempt Engineer Babe, where they get to know each other while waiting for a rescue. In keeping with the service-free nature of this show, he gets to watch her take a sink bath, but we do not. Our Villains sneak in to molest the girl while she sleeps, only to be thwarted by the unsurprising news that Our Hero encountered at least one dirty-magazine vending machine in his first life, and they take the -bate. The inevitable rescue reveals just how much Our Curvy Heroine has come to care for Our Boxy Hero.

Verdict: Just Plain Fun. A bit talky, but Hulemy is fun to watch as she investigates Boxxo.

(there is no decent fan-art of this series)

NieR, episodes 9-12

After five months, was this worth waiting for? Not really, no. I already had no real investment in the psycho/socio rambling that passes for a plot, and over the past several months I’d blissfully forgotten where they’d left off. I’m just in it for the eye candy, and there’s a lot more expository lumps than lady humps.

Verdict: the only value this has to me is the continued generation of new fan-art. Honestly, Maplestar’s 2B/9S fuck video was more interesting as a character study.

(note: they’re promising another cour, which is probably the only reason they didn’t just give up on airing this after so long)

More purahnography coming

It sounds like Link’s answer to Purah’s request begins with zzzzzzzzip, as Maplestar announces there will be a sequel to that short animation.

“Climate Change” actually Arson. Again

Leftists were eager to blame last year’s big Yosemite fire on global warming, but just like this year’s Canadian wildfires, it was arson.

Good enough

The tail is just a hair too long, aesthetically speaking, but I’m not going to futz with it any further for now, mostly because I hacked together a bunch of modifier objects to disable the fuzzy skin in areas the slicer insisted on. I’ll clean up the OpenSCAD source before posting it on Thingiverse/Printables, but that’s about it.

Bottom line, it feels perfect in my hand, with just the right amount of texturing from the fuzzy skin (Contour/0.6/0.6). Amusingly, when I printed a set of four, I got a false positive from the “AI” spaghetti-detection. Low-confidence, fortunately, so it asked me if I wanted to abort the job rather than doing it for me.

...and Thingiverse.
