Warhammer, Transformers, Tabletop RPGs, assorted nerd stuff. I wanted to be a Social Justice Mystic Theurge, but turned out a Social Justice Commoner.
Hey, you ever heard me (constantly) going on about Babylon 5? It's starting to air, in its entirety, on YouTube.

Broke: Star Trek says humans will abandon all religion in the future. Woke: Dune says religion will continue to be both a source of strength and a tool of control for oppressed peoples. Bespoke: Babylon 5 says we'll get MORE religions, and Jews will have to sort out what alien foods are kosher.
I have found a new "play on repeat until every drop of dopamine is wrung from it" song, and it's the Hildegard von Blingin' cover of Teenage Dirtbag, youtu.be/skfZBqH1NgM?...

The entirety of the NHS, from inception, was made possible thanks to non-white immigrants. Every accusation is a confession. They don’t want talented people regardless of skin colour. They just want white people regardless of skills.
"There's a real thing going on in the composition of the staff...does that not have to be looked at as well?" Nick Robinson, on Today, discussing this news.sky.com/story/nhs-st...
vader-skywalker denialists should be treated with exactly the same weight as historical jesus denialists we have two *adversarial* primary sources (501st journal, the peridean diary) attesting to “darth vader” being the same man as anakin skywalker, and a reliable secondary source (senate minutes)
The two even cross over, with professional podracer and former slave Anakin Skywalker somehow commanding in half the battles in the Clone Wars before later becoming a Vader. The accounts are clearly either pure fabrication or consolidating multiple individuals.
I honestly also think that her wealth only goes so far to explain this shit. You are Amnesty! Fight them! /Let/ her take you to court for libel, suffer the hit, you /literally have to/, what is your point otherwise
Guy who went on holiday to Toontown and made it his whole personality:
So..... A few pictures of the Krieg army. If interested... I recently uploaded 80 over on my facebook page #warhammer #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #krieg #DkoK #deathkorpsofkreig

christ if that’s not a metaphor for our times
Not a new one, but I don't think I've shared it on here before: the Devastator Devastator. #battletech #alphastrike #minipainting #miniatures #painting #tabletop #wargaming
imagine getting dunked on by Playboy for being weird about women’s bodies
What are the incel men up to over on X? Focussing on a quirk of women’s bodies most of us have never even thought about before now. Our take? "Making women mad and getting likes from fellow incels is all they have going for them." Read now: www.playboy.com/read/sex/the...

Transphobes are uniformly trash and we don't need to pretend otherwise. It isn't complicated.
The pervert glasses are absolutely going to get random people wearing prescription spectacles hit in the face. But, of course, attacks on people using disability aids isn't going to be a risk these scumbags have ever considered.
Meta’s smartglasses mean any child can be covertly filmed. In the age of AI, how do we tackle that risk?
James Lovelock is one of the greatest climate scientists that ever lived. We're about find out how on point his statements from over 18 years ago were.
The fact that the friendly police pup in Paw Patrol eventually turns into a Spy Pup outfitted with listening devices and drones is the greatest accidental social commentary of our time.
Mamdani has more guts and better morals than the entirety of the UK Parliament's front bench on both sides of the aisle. Burnham has every opportunity to say the same, but I don't think he has it in him.
Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.
This specific book has been made for me, personally. I first ran a #WFRP campaign in Sylvania when Night's Dark Masters was brand new, and the temptation to try again without the "I am a teenager and this is maybe my second time GMing anything" problem getting in the way has always been looming.
In Sylvania, the lines between the living and the dead are blurred. Navigating these treacherous roads requires a deep understanding of the darkness that defines this land. Sylvania - The Cursed County is Now Available for Pre-order for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: https://bit.ly/4pvFO9J
Further evidence, if ever it were needed, that some motherfuckers are indeed always trying to ice-skate uphill.
Marvel's troubled BLADE reboot starring Mahershala Ali has seemingly taken its final stake to the heart.
Damnit. I was going to just have the contents of the Armageddon box. I did not need to have an actual Ork army.

Twice a year, Hawai'i experiences a strange moment where the sun appears to be exactly overhead & anything that is completely vertical casts no shadow. Let's learn about Lāhainā Noon, subsolar points & 'Kau ka lā i ka lolo', meaning "the sun rests on the brains."
