GODSTONES - THE DAGDA
The Dagda ("the good/capable god") is portrayed in the lore as a powerful warrior, a wise chieftain, and a shaper of the land, appearing in such tales as the Second Battle of Moytura, the Wooing of Étaín, and How The Dagda Got His Magic Staff. Known for his massive stature, lowly appearance, and his mastery over all the arts, the Dagda is one of the most important figures in the Mythological Cycle.
This is an art series depicting the Gaelic gods as ancient statues, with designs loosely inspired by historical finds, such as the Boa Island and Tandragee idols from Northern Ireland, and the Ballachulish Figure from Scotland. In this piece, the Dagda is pictured with his signature harp, club, and cauldron.

"Of course, Bruce never liked to be called a heroe-- not that he'd been called it very often, anyway. He always insisted his actions were motivated by necessity. In this instance the godstone had fallen into the hands of a dangerous man-- and so, someone had to stop him."

How to Fully Restore Old Brick Flooring Hidden under Vinyl
These photographs were taken at an old property in Godstone that was undergoing renovations including the conversion of a scullery with a Brick floor into a children’s playroom. As part of the renovation work the builder had prised off some of the Vinyl tiles and pulled up the cement screed that used to even out the floor underneath.
The builder had advised smashing up the brick floor and laying something else, fortunately the homeowner who wants to keep any original features in the property disagreed. Having searched on the internet for someone to restore the floor they found Tile Doctor and I was asked to take a look.
Tumblr media
Whilst at the property examining the floor I took time to do a test clean and the floor responded well to the treatment. From that I was able to quote for the full restoration of the Brick flooring which was accepted, and a date set for the work.
Removing Cement from Brick Flooring
Work started with the removal of the Vinyl tiles which came off easily with a bit of pressure, not so easy was the adhesive and cement beneath. Using a power chisel, I carefully chipped away at the cement until all that was left was a thin film. Then using a coarse 200-grit burnishing pad fitted to a weighted buffer I managed to smooth out the bricks. The floor was then rinsed with water and the slurry removed with a wet vacuum.
Tumblr media
With all the cement removed the next step was to deep clean the bricks. For this I left a strong dilution of Tile Doctor Pro-Clean to soak in for ten minutes. This time I scrubbed the floor with a less aggressive 400-grit burnishing pad. A few areas in the corners where the pads can struggle to reach were rubbed down with a handheld diamond block. Once done the floor was give another rinse and dried as much as possible with the wet vacuum.
The bricks had been exposed to a lot of water during the rinsing so and with bricks being very porous I left the property over the weekend so it would have time to dry out before sealing.
Sealing Brick Flooring
Returning the following Monday I took several moisture readings from the bricks in several areas using a damp meter. All was well so I processed to apply three coats of Tile Doctor Seal and Go Extra. This product boosts colour and adds an appealing sheen finish that will last for years. This product is also breathable and will allow moisture to rise through the floor which is an important feature when your dealing with old floors that don’t have a damp proof membrane.
Tumblr media
Our client was very happy with the work we carried out and delighted with their newly restored floor. For cleaning I recommended they use Tile Doctor Neutral Clean which is a pH neutral tile cleaning product for sealed floors.

-simon genuinely thinks he’s from another planet
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-simon canonically has fits where he hallucinates
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
-maurice’s last name is walsh?!??
Tumblr media
-when simon meets roger, he asks what school he goes to. roger says “a nowhere school” and simon flirtatiously replies “i thought i’d seen you before”. jack then mocks simon for his prophetic dreams??
Tumblr media
-ralph plays the flute!
Tumblr media
-maurice and bill and ralph play rugby. simon doesn’t like it
Tumblr media
-piggy goes to barnabas high, ralph goes to upton, and jack + the choir go to godstone

“ughhhhhh…” WHAM! my head hits the desk, rather hard but alas still not enough to swindle my headache. Unfortunately, I had woken up with a headache and people have been feeling extra dumb today, which was not helping. I squeeze my eyes tightly closed and hope to Merlin everyone goes away so I can pass away… swiftly… please? I quickly realize there is no god as i get a rude tapping on my shoulder. I take a deep breath in and raise my head from my desk only to find… the godstones kid again.
Dear Merlin I swear if thi- she interrupts me before I can spit my thoughts out, “I need your help, some kids took my gobstones again.” I deadpan.
“Have you even looked yourself, because last time i helped you it took me no less than 5 minutes, basic magic, and simple common sense.” I ask, headache brewing up a storm of death and suffering.
Her face flushing at the (accurate) accusation, “I- well its just- umm… no.” She practically mumbles the last part, she starts shuffling her feet back to the door she marched through feeling so courageous just a second before.
“yeah that's what I thought,” I mutter to myself, as she swiftly leaves the room.
“That was rather odd, what did she want?” I hear Ominis ask. He takes his seat next to me,
“Sebastian being out sick has made me realize how many bothersome people beg for my attention, her for example, wanting me to find her gobstones… again,” I sigh as I say it. Ominis chuckles at my frustration.
“That's true, Sebastian is a great guard dog that is for sure.” Ominis’s hand finds my thigh and he starts caressing it gently, sliding me closer to him. I rest my head onto his shoulder, headache dissipating slowly but surely. Also slowly but surely I feel Ominis creep his hand higher up my thigh.
“Ominis… class just started dont start teasing me now,” as I whisper that into his ears I feel his smirk grow across his face.
“Whatever could you mean,” the sarcasm audible in his voice. I see him flick his wand slightly and as I was about to ask what he'd done I felt a disillusionment charm wave over our laps. My eyes grow wide for a moment only to force my face back to normal so as to not draw attention. My cock twitching against my pants as Ominis teases me. My face had bloomed into a bright shade of red as Ominis pretends all is normal.
“Ominis please…” I beg softly, thanking Merlin that we sit at the back of the class.
“Professor, could I please be excused to Madam Pomfry’s my eyes seem to be bugging me.” Ominis speaks up.
“Yes of course Mr. Gaunt, here let's have someone help you there. hmmmm, Mr. L/n how about you help Mr. Gaunt to Madam Pomfry’s.” the professor declares.
“Yes Professor,” I manage out. My lower half now throbbing with anticipation. I quickly gather our stuff and pretend to guide Ominis to the hall, door shutting behind us. I follow Ominis as he leads me to the Undercroft. He grabs my collar pulling me close.
“Just let me do everything, alright.” Ominis all but demands. He pushes me lightly against a wall, grabbing my chin with one hand the other pressing against my erection. I exhale at the pressure, hearing that Ominis pulls me in and we kiss deep. His tongue working his magic. His hands float down below, freeing his member first then mine. Both of us red at the tips, after almost 30 minutes of teasing. Precum leaking onto the floor as Ominis grabs us both, the action causing me to groan into his mouth. We part for a breath of air. “Accio desk,” Ominis pants out. A desk from nearby pulling up behind me, he sits me on it. Slowly he starts stroking his one hand stroking both erect, leaking cocks. My hips stuttering into his hand as I grow close to the edge.
“Ominis please!” I moan out, his hips stuttering when he hears it. “I'm getting close!” We start making out again, his tongue now scouring my mouth.
“God you feel so beautiful,” Ominis groans into my ear. Like a switch flipping my eyes flutter and I moan out softly, holding onto Ominis’s shoulders I cum. Ominis looking frustrated and on the verge triggering me to hop off the desk and down to my knees. I move Ominis’s hand off his cock and take him into his mouth, he grabs my hair and forces me down. Gagging on him I look up at his face and see a flushed face. Tears welling in my eyes I hear, “C-cumming!” I wait until he finishes before removing my mouth and swallowing. “You did so amazing my dove,” Ominis says. Helping me to my feet I cast a cleaning charm, the mess vanishing. “We should probably go back to class now,” Ominis says whilst holding my face in his hand.
“Ugh, don't remind me.” I say over exaggerating my face. Ominis laughs, having felt my face move.
“Darn…”
“What?”
“It seems my eyes still hurt,” A smirk growing across Ominis’s face.

The forest has awakened to the sound of our footsteps. Slowly we moved through the frosted branches and mossy path. Above us, the fog persisted, even though the sun had already risen.
In the fog, we heard whispers. They were talking in a foreign language about the path we were aiming to take. It leads to uncertainty, that we knew. But we had to take it. It was our only chance, to meet at the old Godstone. For death and life will cross its path, amidst the tall risen ancient trees.

This is an art series depicting the Gaelic gods as ancient statues, with designs loosely inspired by historical finds, such as the Boa Island and Tandragee idols from Northern Ireland, and the Ballachulish Figure from Scotland. In this piece, Nuada is pictured with his signature sword and silver hand.

New game! The Bread Must Rise by Stewart C. Baker and James Beamon
New game! "The Bread Must Rise" by Stewart C. Baker and James Beamon is now available on Steam, iOS and Android. It's 40% off until October 5!
In this magical baking contest, you'll team up with the Queen Undying to bake your rivals into an early grave—or out of the grave, with necromancy!
"The Bread Must Rise" is a 450,000-word interactive comedy/fantasy/baking/eldritch horror novel by James Beamon and Stewart C Baker. It's entirely text-based, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
Also, by lots of terrible jokes.
You've been chosen as one of six contestants in the Great Godstone Bakeoff! Godstone, renowned throughout the twelve mostly civilized realms as the "city of a thousand bakeries," is not what it once was. The Queen Undying, a necromancer rumored to have a taste for human blood, has filled its streets with terror, while the robe-shrouded members of the Carb Freeon cult threaten bakers with impunity. And something is off with the City Council, a group of shadowy figures who nobody ever remembers seeing.
You're one of Godstone's top bakers, with a scrappy little business, a mysterious confectionary legacy from your late parents, and a former best friend who stole your recipes to make his own fame and fortune. You’ve got a lot to prove in this competition, and you’ll stop at nothing to reach the top of the profiterole tower.
But everything changes when the Queen Undying herself appears at your bakery. The queen has forced you to become her newest thrall, helpless to resist her eldritch power. And, for mysterious reasons, she's commanding you to make her your baking assistant!
Exercise your breadcraft magic to turn the saddest soggiest-bottomed bakes into stunning showstoppers; sweet-talk the judges into giving you the win; or just put in good old-fashioned hard work. If you're not satisfied with just making bread rise, maybe you'll start making the dead rise, too: necromancy is powerful, and the Queen Undying's spells might be just what you need to complete that recipe…or to take down your rival once and for all.
Play up to the press, win the adoration of your fans, and navigate the influence of the Carb Freeon cult as you bake your way to fame! The farther you go in the tournament, the closer you get to learning the secrets of your own past, uncovering clues about your parents' life and death. And the closer you come to learning the City Council's shadowy plans for Godstone…
Play as male, female, or nonbinary; gay, straight, bi, pan, or asexual.
Choose your ingredients: play in omnivore, vegetarian, or vegan mode.
Manage your budget to fill your pantry with the finest magical and mundane ingredients.
Find love with Godstone's fanciest food critic, a dreaded necromancer, a former adventurer, the Bakeoff's charismatic host, or even your best-friend-turned-worst-enemy!
Quell the Carb Freeon cult or join its ranks.
Sell out to the realm's biggest bakery franchise or triumph as a plucky small business owner.
Gaze upon the horrors of eldritch dimensions.
Will you take home the trophy or fade into bland obscurity? One thing's for sure: you'll never look at brownies the same way again.

Zyros’s throne room was a place of fear, pain, and death. Torches were set at regular intervals along the walls, providing more illumination than found in the hall, but there were still plenty of shadows clinging to columns and corners. There were furrows dug into the stone walls as if by claws, and more were scored into the floor, creating crevices in which puddles of blood formed and stagnated.

365 Marvel Comics Paper Cut-Out SuperHeroes - One Hero, Every Day, All Year…
October 31st - Man-Wolf
John Jonah Jameson III is the son of the Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. An accomplished military pilot, Jamison was among the youngest candidates to be selected to become an astronaut.  His first mission into space went awry when the guidance system malfunctioned during reentry.  Captain Jamison and his crew were saved when Spider-Man was able to create a webbing parachute that slowed the craft’s and allowed for a safe landing.  Although Spidey had saved his son’s life, J. Jonah Jameson was enraged that the web-slinger had stolen the spotlight from his son and he ran an erroneous editorial claiming Spider-Man had actually sabotaged the space shuttle.  
During a second trip into outer space, Captain Jamison encountered an extraterrestrial virus that increased his strength to superhuman levels.  Jamison used this new power to battle Spider-Man when it had appeared the wall crawler had committed a bank robbery.  Spidey escaped and the true culprit behind the crime was eventually identified and apprehended.  
Some time later, Jameson manned a third space expedition to collect samples on the moon.  During the mission, Jamison discovered a large ruby known as ‘The Godstone.’ This alien relic attached itself to Jameson, transforming him into a lycanthropic being called The Man-Wolf.
Returning to Earth, he went on a rampage and battled Spider-Man. Spidey was eventually able to remove the Godstone, restoring Jameson to his human state; although the Godstone was later replanted onto him by Morbius The Living Vampire in order to use the Man-Wolf as a pawn against Spider-Man. Some time thereafter, The Man-Wolf was transported to The Other Realm, an extra-dimensional plain from where the Godstone originated. Whist there, Jameson developed greater control over his lycanthropic powers and became a hero.  He came to be known as ‘Stargod’ and had countless adventures battling the evil throughout The Other Realm.  
After finally returning to earth, Jameson took a position as the personal pilot for Captain America as well as The Avengers.  Herein, Jameson became romantically involved with the heroine known as She-Hulk.  He maintained his Man-Wolf powers, but used them sparingly worried that he could become overwhelmed by the savage instincts that take over when in his werewolf form.  
Later, Jamison became a member of The Black Panther’s covert operations group, The Agents of Wakanda.  More recently, he has accepted a job as chief of staff at the mysterious Raevncroft Institute.  
Versions of Captain Jameson have featured in a number of the Sony Pictures Spider-man movies, portrayed by actors Daniel Gillies and Chris O’Hara.  The hero first appeared in Amazing Spider-Man Vol. 1 #1 (1962).
