Magawa, a rat trained to detect landmines, retired in 2021 after five years of service. During his career, he helped clear more than 20 football fields’ worth of land in Cambodia, significantly contributing to the safety of local communities.

His work earned him several accolades, including a prestigious award from the UK veterinary charity PDSA.

Over on my blog I have a new post which is in-depth commentary on Fight Forever, the final scenario from Transgender Deathmatch Legend II. Its a scenario about a relationship, and by extension the blog post is about my relationship with Transgender Deathmatch Legend.

I think there's some insightful things in here, like it's a look at why the scenario is the way it is and what it's doing as part of the wider book.

Give it a read and if you enjoy it remember you can grab the game in exchange for money

man, 2024 was a great year for ‘films that feel like they’d be fake trailers at the start of a comedy but turn out to be actual real films that they somehow released’, like just look at this lineup

Harnisfechten Chinchillas

Joachim Meyer Longsword Chinchillas

Fantastical Snail Marginalia Chinchillas

Olympic Epee Chinchillas

Salvator Fabris Rapier-in-the-Nude Chinchillas

I feel that @petermorwood should see this if he hasn’t already :-)

I have indeed seen them already, but that was a couple of years ago and the two website pages - One and Two - linked by @toofrenchtofunction (for which many thanks, they’re great!) weren’t up yet.

Here’s another martial chinchilla to keep the art ones company. :->

(And here’s an attempt to attach the video. It may not work, which is why I included that hotlink…)
