🧵 Dear all ( #nerdlings, old #toycollectors, #diecastcars enthusiasts, #warmongers, #boardgamers et al.) in Belgium and possibly close-by:

Due to reasons I will have to get rid of quite some stuff. To be clear: mostly not talking about systematically collected or pristine items ... [1/X]

As October begins, we contemplate how the sea wind had its way with this now-fungal saint.
scary sea-weathered saint on the church near Hartlepool headland (body of saint is heavily eroded down to a veined or boxwork-like underlying structure of the stone, which looks like weird branching fungus).

“Do you need me to find you some reference for this painting?”
“Nah, all good. I’ve seen a camel.”
“Recently?”
“…”
“Recently, right?”
A 15th century painting of a camel that is wildly off model.

And I mean completely besides the fact (at least as far as I remember) that this and the older cover clearly portray Jaq Draco in Terminator armour despite that never happening in the stories. I am happy to have my memory corrected though.

Et voilà:

The interesting part is also that these two books seem to be the only (early?) Heyne ones to have used cover art that wasn't already widely used in other GW publications previously.

If I were to speculate I'd say it was specifically created for Ian Watson's Draco series and therefore didn't get used (much?) elsewhere.

Unfortunately it only says "Boxtree/ Games Workshop ltd.". But it's the same cover as Ian Watson's Chaos Child novel, will take a pic later.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

I'd love to know what every comedian who played the Riyadh Comedy Festival thinks of this piece by Jonathan Liew. It's an electrifying read. And really hard to think what any counter-justification from the participating comics would consist of. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
We know what the comedians got out of the Riyadh comedy festival. What about the Saudi regime? | Jonathan Liew
The tawdry event was an ultimately doomed attempt by the Saudi government to buy the kind of authentic grassroots culture it is unwilling to countenance, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

Reform Party UK Exposed @reformexposed.bsky.social · 22h
Eight Reform UK councils have indicated that they will raise council tax next year after struggling to find huge cuts in public spending.

That’s despite Reform UK flyers during the Local Elections criticising councils for doing just that.

Never trust a Reformer.
