thou hast done well in defeating the red slime they/them
9 games except it's 18 games because I did 9 from my childhood and 9 from my adolescence
the apothecary class in space marine 2 had better give me the ability to grant the Emperor's Peace to my squadmates
it's genuinely evil for a newspaper to take a local argument about a struggling small town business and hold it up for national ridicule and red meat for bigots it is, tangentially, also kinda sad to admit the best numbers your newspaper has done in a decade were for a mediocre Bar Rescue episode
the most obnoxious and narcissistic self-described queer organizer is my ally well before a journalist who is inviting zyn guys to gawk at the former
everyone seeing that story should've just shrugged, said "yeah, that sounds like western massachusetts," and then moved on
pdf reader@greatgrebe.bsky.social · 2d agosomething so hyper local as the lesbian mask bar story shouldn't matter to 99% of us so it's especially depressing to watch it get so uncritically chewed up as the Content of the week.
for some reason I always envisioned "the city" in welcome to the black parade to be chicago. I guess it's probably supposed to be new york since mcr are from new jersey, but it is chicago to me
talking about ADHD online is impossible because on one side you have people who think that ADHD is fake and on the other side you have people who think that their self-diagnosed ADHD entitles them to be unapologetically selfish at all times
discovered tonight that I can paint two einhyr hearthguard in the same amount of time it takes to paint one of any other infantry model and gained a real understanding of why space marines and necrons are two of the most popular armies for beginners
I started reading the leagues of votann 40k novel (the high kâhl's oath) and it's really funny how often it calls out specific pieces of wargear by the name they have on unit datasheets. it's all like "she heard the sound of the HYLas Rotary Cannon™"
lion el'jonson catching an emergency points increase two weeks before the space marines codex is even released. that's my mf primarch
she's been in a pissy mood all day and now she is taking a nap with her claws out
every football season I'm like "why the fuck does louisville media cover the colts instead of the bengals when cincinnati is closer than indianapolis" and then I remember that indiana is literally right on the other side of the river
also bears mentioning that it doesn't matter much to these guys that polling shows this isn't a pressing issue for voters. it's not really *for* voters. "demonstrating seriousness" is an impulse aimed at impressing the political press, and transphobia is maybe the #1 journalist-led cause out there
the thing is, 99% of democrats who are willing to concede on the issue of trans rights also don't have significantly different stances than republicans on these other issues
Max Kennerly@maxkennerly.bsky.social · 6d agoIf you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.
I'm not going to make any blanket statements about generational cohorts or The Youth, but this discourse about appropriate behavior during job interviews is revealing that a lot of people believe that they have a fundamental right to do whatever they want whenever they want with zero consequences
how it feels watching space marine players talk about their new codex knowing that leagues of votann are probably going to be one of the last factions to get an 11th ed. codex because our 10th ed. codex just came out last year
my local warhammer store has finally hired an employee, so hopefully now it won't be closed every time the owner has something come up
it sounds like control resonant is the arkham city to control's arkham asylum, and as someone who thinks arkham city is a much worse game than arkham asylum, that's a bummer
Jeff Gerstmann@jeffgerstmann.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy · last wk.Hey! I wrote a review of Control Resonant. It has some neat ideas, some of which don’t pan out. Ultimately I was pretty disappointed with it. https://www.patreon.com/jeffgerstmann/posts/169865036
can you tell that I slightly messed up the edge shading on this steeljack? of course you can't! I can't now!

venator ult working with ricochet is one of the funniest deadlock changes I have ever seen
a few months ago I asked mara if she wanted to go see gorillaz with me and she said yes. last week I learned that she knows nothing about gorillaz get you a girl who will spend a weekend flying to another city to see a band she thinks she has never heard before
