Appropriate cold weather adaptations would be:

Small button shaped combs, feathered feet, feathered crests, beards, small gular wattles, and please let’s move away from the solid mahogany colored animals they all look like rhode island reds or hybrid egg laying strains like golden comets.

the reviews are in... glad everyone's enjoying song of the worm

According to Nexus, there is another update to Skyrim on the way. Some people may not want to update at the moment, so we are going to show you how to prevent updates on Steam until you want to reenable them. First, find the App ID, for Skyrim it is 489830 but you can find/do this for any game by looking at the "properties" of a game in your Steam library, going to the "updates" tab, and finding App ID listed there.

Next go to the Steam library folder on the drive where you have Skyrim installed. In this case it is C:/SteamLibrary/steamapps, but will be different depending on your installation. Here you will find a file named "appmanifest_489830.acf". Set this file to read only, and Skyrim will not be able to update on Steam until you turn off read only mode.

This will make it so you can't launch the game directly through the Steam browser normally anymore as it will have a disk write error when it tries to update (using Starfield as an example). You can get around this by launching the game through the Skyrim executable, SKSE, or a mod manager instead.

Once again its the day we all wait for, public domain day. the day some thing get ripped out of the clasps of the claws of corporations. This year is notable for many things becoming public domain but specifically a certain mouse in the united states. Here's an example of some of the things but note that this is only a sampling of what's become public domain

In Europe and other life of author + 70 years areas:

The Wind Has Risen by Tatsuo Hori

The polish Koziołek Matołek comics by Kornel Makuszyński

Mr. Weston's Good Wine by T.F Powys

In New Zealand and other life of author + 50 years areas:

Orlando: A Biography by Virginia Woolf

just over a year ago, @saturdaysky commissioned me with an absolutely outstanding shadowgast prompt; namely, 'Caleb helping Essek put on a fancy outfit'. i'm sure you can imagine how ecstatic i was about it (just look at that line, every single word in it is designed to make me go heart eyes), and i'm finally finished and excited to post this bad boy. i hope you guys enjoy this picture too and my very optimistic wish is that it inspires all sorts of lovely stories in your minds 😏

sky gave me a beautiful prompt and a specific atmosphere/mood to depict, but was very patient and generous about letting me go wild on the actual posing, colors and details, so naturally i did 😂 my idea of using a mirror in the composition was admittedly rather ambitious, and lead me to reading up quite a bit on optics, the physics of reflections and reflections in art specifically (as well as the history of zippers and other closures!), so not only was this commission a delight from the point of view of its topic, but i also learned a fair amount of new stuff while working on it. honestly speaking, i like to think that the bookworm wizards would approve of my little adventure.

The original artist who made this funny comic- I’m just making a witcher version

caps, réales, or gold
