Lilly returns, claiming a space for herself!

And a new friend for her, meet Private Catherine LeBlanc!

They are fast friends, and armed at that.

And a thank you to the people supporting this endeavor.

Building these 2 has been a blast and I plan to make more posts about their antics. I will at some point give them more personality and stylization but that is a ways off (I am not confident in my ability to do so)

Rocket Models for Every Skill Level: Beginner to Advanced

Rocket modelling is an exciting and educational hobby that lets you build small-scale versions of real rockets. These rockets are usually made from lightweight materials like plastic or wood, and they use special engines designed for hobbies. These engines, which use solid fuel, provide the push needed to send the rocket soaring into the sky.

Watching a model rocket launch is a thrilling experience. After the countdown, you press a button, and the engine fires up, launching the rocket into the air. As it reaches its peak, a parachute pops out, allowing the missile to gently float back down. Seeing something you built take off is amazing and gives you a great sense of pride and excitement.

Over the years, rocket modelling has come a long way, thanks to improvements in design and technology. Now, you have plenty of options to choose from when it comes to engines and accessories, allowing you to customize your rockets in many ways.

Rocket Kits for Beginners and Advanced Users

Rocket kits come in different sizes and levels of difficulty, making them suitable for both beginners and experienced builders. Most kits include everything you need to get started: a body tube, fins, a nose cone, and a parachute. This makes it easy for anyone to jump into the hobby, even if they've never built a rocket before.

The engines used in these rockets are classified by their power level. They are labeled with letters to show how strong they are. For example, an A-class engine is small and less powerful, while a D-class engine is bigger and can carry more weight. It's important to choose the right engine for your rocket's size and design to ensure a successful launch.

Safety Comes First

Safety is very important when it comes to launching rockets. Always make sure you’re in a safe, open area, far away from people, buildings, and anything else that could be damaged. Before every launch, check your rocket to make sure everything is securely in place and working properly. Also, be sure to wear protective gear, like goggles, and use a proper launch pad to avoid any accidents.

Exploring Rocket Kits

Are you ready to take off on a new adventure? Rocket kits are a fantastic way to learn about flight while having a blast. Whether you're an experienced rocketeer or a newbie, there's something truly magical about watching your creation fly into the sky. With so many different rocket models to choose from, each one brings its own challenges and excitement.

Rocket kits come in all shapes and sizes, so there’s something for every age group and skill level. From simple designs for beginners to more complex builds for advanced hobbyists, the possibilities are endless.

Building a rocket is not only fun, but it's also educational. It teaches you about basic concepts like aerodynamics, engineering, and physics. Each step in the process helps you learn more and engage with your curiosity.

Most rocket kits include detailed instructions that make it easy to understand how the parts fit together. You'll feel a sense of accomplishment as you see your rocket take shape.

Another fun aspect of rocket building is customizing your model. Many hobbyists enjoy painting their rockets and adding unique designs, making their creations stand out. The joy doesn't just come from building the rocket, but also from personalizing it before the big launch day.

When the time comes to launch, the excitement is incredible! Watching your rocket soar into the sky after all your hard work is a rewarding experience.

Rocket Models: A Blend of Art and Science

Rocket models are a great way to combine art and science. Whether you’re building a detailed replica or a simple design, they allow you to get creative while learning the science behind flight.

Many people find joy in crafting their own models. It’s a hobby that sparks creativity and also teaches important lessons in physics and engineering. Each rocket becomes a canvas for your imagination, with endless possibilities for customization.

There are various materials to choose from, like plastic or wood, and each offers a different building experience. Many builders like to modify their rockets to improve performance or just to make them look cooler.

Competitions are another exciting part of the hobby. Builders get to test their creations against others, seeing whose rocket flies the highest or looks the best. It’s thrilling to watch a rocket you've built soar through the sky.

No matter your experience level, building and flying different rocket models opens up a world of creativity and discovery.

Rocket Kits for Adults

If you're an adult looking for a fun and challenging hobby, model rocket kits might be just what you're looking for. Building and launching these rockets is not only entertaining but also educational, as it teaches you the principles of aerodynamics and physics in a hands-on way.

There are rocket kits available for all skill levels, from simple designs to more complex projects. Some companies even offer advanced rocket models specifically designed for adults who want to push their skills further.

One of the best parts of being a rocketry enthusiast as an adult is the social aspect. There are clubs and online communities where you can share tips, show off your builds, and even plan group launches. It’s a great way to connect with other people who share your passion.

Whether you're revisiting a childhood hobby or starting something new, building model rockets is a fun and educational activity that brings hours of enjoyment. With so many options available, there’s always something new to learn and explore.

Mask recommendations for ordering online (NA)

Note: for consistency, practicality, and simplicity all prices are listed in USD.

masknerd has a comprehensive data set on hundreds of masks he's tested according to his own criteria and methodology (pinned tweet). find his recommendations on his youtube channel. many of the following are on his list as well!

DISPOSABLE MASKS

3M Aura and Vflex: one of the most commonly recommended brands of N95. Where to buy?

- US: see here - Canada: see here - Multiple sizes per model. These suppliers are good for bulk ordering. If you aren't sure if something will fit you, check out the sample kits in the next recommendation - Price point: varies from $1-1.3 USD per mask depending on supplier

Breatheteq (US):

- KN95s that come in small, medium, large, or XS (kids) - Offers sample kits so you can test out what your size is - Comes in a few different colours. shoutout to the lavender - Earloop only - Price point: $69.75 USD for a 50-pack (~1.4 USD per mask)

Canadastrong (Canada):

- The Canadian equivalent to Breatheteq, but also carries N95s of other brands such as 3M Aura and Vflex, Vitacore, and Drager X-plore

Vitacore (Canada and US):

- N95 certified, but actually has 99% filtration - Both earloop and head strap versions (warning that the head strap seems to fit considerably smaller) - Regular and small adult sizes offered, also a kid's size - Price point: $33.99 for a 30-pack (~1.1 USD per mask)

Wellbefore (US, ships to Canada):

- N95s, KN95s, and KF94s - Head straps, normal earloops, or adjustable earloops depending on model - Kids/petite size available for certain KN95 models - Wide range of colours (excluding N95s) - Price point: varies per model, from $0.79 USD to $2.09 USD per mask - Also sells Covid tests, over the counter medication, and medical supplies

Masklab (US):

- This is an indulgent option for if you want to go out and look good, while still staying safe. These are masks that are part of your outfit - FFP2 certified, equivalent to KF94s - Standard size and slim fit series - Many beautiful patterns - Price point: $24.44 USD for a 5-pack ($4.88 per mask) for the patterned KF ones, ~$3.4 USD for the plain KF ones, ~$3.3 USD for the slim fit series, including patterns.

ELASTOMERIC MASKS

Flomask (US, ships to Canada):

- Reusable elastomeric mask (with replaceable filters) that meets KN95 standards - Two adult sizes (low/medium nose ridge and medium/high nose ridge) and a kid's size - Adjustable straps - Price point: $122 USD. 50-pack replacement filters: $81.46 (filters to be changed after 20-40 hours of use, depending on filter type)

A humble P100 elastomeric respirator from your local Home Depot or similar store! Magnitudes cheaper than the Flo mask (both the respirator itself and the filters)--however, I can't offer estimates for how often filters should be replaced. May not look pretty, but the most economical option for the highest degree of filtration if you aren't self-conscious.

General advice:

N95 or higher are the most reliable. They normally come with head straps, which offer better protection by making a tighter seal around your face.

But fit and comfort are the most important! Find a mask that fits your face and leaves the least amount of gap possible. KN95s are often more comfortable and breathable--find what's right for you.

You can wear different masks for different situations depending on risk level!

If you're hesitant to buy online, here's advice on how to tell if your respirator is legitimate.

A SIP drinking valve can be installed on any disposable mask to allow you to drink in public with less risk.

If anyone has other recommendations, please feel free to add!

Invisible Aligners in London - StarSmiles

In recent years, invisible aligners have revolutionized the way people think about orthodontic treatment. These clear plastic trays have become a popular alternative to traditional metal braces, as they are less noticeable and often more comfortable. In London, one company that has gained a reputation for providing high-quality invisible aligners is Starsmiles.

Starsmiles is a London-based company that offers clear aligners to help straighten teeth. Their aligners are made from a patented, high-quality plastic material that is BPA-free and designed to be durable and comfortable. The aligners are custom-made for each patient, and are designed to gradually shift teeth into their correct positions.

One of the biggest advantages of Starsmiles' invisible aligners is their nearly-invisible appearance. Because they are made from clear plastic, they are much less noticeable than traditional metal braces. This makes them an ideal option for anyone who is self-conscious about their appearance, particularly adults who may feel embarrassed about wearing braces.

Another advantage of Starsmiles' aligners is their convenience. Unlike traditional braces, they are removable, meaning that patients can take them out when they eat or brush their teeth. This makes them much easier to care for than braces, which can be difficult to clean around.

The process of getting aligners from Starsmiles is also relatively simple. Patients start by taking an impression of their teeth using a home impression kit provided by the company. The impressions are then used to create a 3D model of the patient's teeth, which is used to design the custom aligners. Once the aligners are ready, they are shipped directly to the patient's home, and treatment can begin.

Overall, Starsmiles is a great option for anyone looking for high-quality invisible aligners in London. Their custom-made aligners are comfortable, convenient, and nearly invisible, making them a great option for anyone who wants to straighten their teeth without traditional braces. Whether you are an adult looking to improve your appearance, or a teenager who wants a less noticeable option, Starsmiles is definitely worth considering.

It's Will that gives him the idea.

"we don't really celebrate father's day anymore," he had said awkwardly, "but I can't hang out anyway."

"why not?" Dustin demanded. He was gonna end up bored and alone because he didn't celebrate the holiday and everyone else had plans. he had been counting on Will to keep him company.

"I'm gonna get Jonathan a new record and I want to listen to it with him," he said.

"can't he get his own records? C'mon, we could go to the arcade or something."

"no, Dustin," his tone took on a stubborn edge that made Dustin pause. "He's my brother and I love him, and he's the only guy besides Bob who's ever even tried to look out for me. So I'm sorry but I'm gonna be busy on Sunday."

Dustin didn't argue after that but it did get him thinking which is why on Sunday morning he biked all the way over to Loch Nora and started banging on Steve's door.

"what do you want, Henderson?" Steve sighed the most dramatic put upon sigh Dustin had ever heard.

"you're not my dad--"

"wow you really are genius!"

"shut up, shut up, listen to me!"

"okay, geez, I'm listening."

"you're not my dad and I don't want you to be my dad. I don't even really want a dad! Lots of dads aren't even that great and my mom already has the single parent thing down. But you taught me how to do my hair and how to talk to girls - even though that advice sucked, I didn't need it to get Suzie at all - and you're gonna teach me how to drive--"

"woah, hey, no I never said I'd do that, wh--"

"--and you've saved my life but I think we're even because I've saved your life too."

"Henderson don't you have anything better to do than harass me in my own home?" Steve said. he was using that exasperated tone he got when he knew he wasn't keeping up with what was going on but didn't want to admit it.

"actually no I don't but I'm here for a reason," he reached into his backpack and took out the gift he clumsily wrapped with scraps of brown paper bags. He shoved it into Steve's hands. "You're basically the only adult male figure in my life. And I appreciate you."

Steve squinted at the gift and then at Dustin and at the gift again before he said fussily "is this a prank? If something gross explodes from this, I swear to god, I'll--"

"Just open it, Steve!"

"Fine, fine, keep your shirt on," Steve said and tore off the paper. He blinked and in a softer tone said, "Oh."

"I don't know if you even like making models but I know you love cars and this kit looked just like yours, so yeah."

Steve stared at the kit some more. Dustin started to fidget. It was always better to be honest with your feelings but maybe this was too much for Steve. Maybe Steve didn't like him as much as Dustin did. Steve was not as enlightened about these things as Dustin.

"I've never made a model before."

Dustin hunched his shoulders and tried not to feel stupid or hurt. He should have expected this. They weren't even related. This was probably too weird. He reached out to take the gift back.

"it's fine, I can return it, whatever."

Steve raised the kit out of Dustin's reach.

"Hey, this is mine," he said.

"you don't even like it!"

"I never said that! I'm just gonna need a dweeby little nerd to help me build it. You know anybody like that?" Steve asked, batting his eyes innocently.

"you're such a dick," Dustin grumbled, fighting back a grin.

"watch your language!"

"shut up, you're not my dad."

Steve laughed as Dustin shoved his way into the house. Hours later, after much shouting and ribbing and one incident of spilled paint, a small model of the beemer was left to dry while Steve forced Dustin to watch the baseball game on TV with him. It wasn't the worst thing ever, and after Steve mentioned the statistics involved, it got way more interesting ("of course you'd like the math part, you weirdo" "you don't understand the stats do you" "shut up and watch the game, Henderson"). When the paint was dry, Dustin followed Steve upstairs and watched him carefully and deliberately place the model between a couple of sports trophies.

"yeah, I guess it looks pretty cool," Steve said with exaggerated nonchalance. "Now beat it, kid. your mom's gonna freak if you're not home when she gets back from work."

"can you give me a ride?"

"ugh, fine."

Dustin grinned. This had been, hands down, the best father's day ever. From the look on Steve's face when he placed the model, Dustin was pretty sure he agreed.

Do you have advice for making kits/apprentices actually look like kittens / teenaged cats instead of mini adults?

I've gotten this ask a couple times, so I drew a model firestar for my thoughts when I draw a character at different ages.

hope this helps a little!
