FOR YOU ARE BEING USURPED!
TONIGHT WE DINE IN THE TWEEFECTORY!

A challenge! So we clicked, and found out that this new blog is called "The Sisters Brick" with a taunting url of "tbbissexist.blogspot.com"! How must our sister blog The Brothers Brick feel! Doesn't ~Tac~ know that TBB has a token ladyblogger? If our dear readers will allow us to revive our dusty old Sense and Sensibility analogy, this is just like when Elinor (TBB) was accosted by the pernicious friendship of Lucy Steele (TSB), who waves her secret engagement to Elinor's first love Edward in Elinor's face! Oh! We are so affected by this, we shall quite run around in a damp garden after sunset and catch cold! Or something.

But this is of course not a novel, and this new fledgling blog doesn't enjoy TBB's banner ad revenue which TBB uses to buy its best buddies plane tickets to lego cons. And we are keenly aware that, like baby turtles, not every new blog with a smart mouth and a chip on its shoulder will last the first year, so we wish The Sisters Brick the best of luck! Additionally, JordanTN is rebooting his on-again-off-again Brick Flotilla blog as a tumblr called On The Rhodes Again, so we wish him luck also! We have definitely been there, girl!

Now for those of our dear readers who don't "give a shit" about legos blog inside baseball (most of you), let's blog a MOC!

McZargald has been building this Homeworld-y spaceship for 8 months or so, and it is still a WIP but it looks good so we're just gonna blog it already. It's got nice chunky shapes, cool broadside turrets, and an airlock with nice curved corners. It could use another blue stripe mebbe, and perhaps some small wedge action on the too-flat topside, but it is a pretty exemplary moc so far. What's holding it up, minifig interiors? Oh McZargald, don't waste a bunch of time on that! Who's gonna see it!

If our dear readers have any hot tips for us they're welcome to send us a flickrmail here, but "please blog my moc" requests means we won't blog your moc. Happy corresponding!

*Update (in Robert Stack voice, a la Unsolved Mysteries): The Sisters Brick moved here.
