Given the state of the world I’ve decided to run a scale model group build and competition in aid of Ukraine. Please spread the word and join in, details of how to enter the competition will be released soon. I’ll set up a feed on here and a facebook page soon. #ForUkraineGB u24.gov.ua

Saturnine now with head! I’ve just realised the pauldrons aren’t quite straight but that should be a quick fix. Next some highlights on the metal, maybe a couple more markings (I’m thinking a wolf’s head and a VI somewhere) and then some battle damage. #warhammer

Canoeing, big chap I'm sharing with overbalances, I get hit on the head by the canoe followed by him. Dragged under, thrown out, smashed into rock, dragged under again. I remember thinking 'that's it, I'm going to drown'. The next thing I know I'm above water tangled in a tree. Everything was fine.
What’s the worst *short-lived* scare you’ve ever had? Where you were genuinely freaking out but then it was all ok within minutes?
I had a literal moth get trapped inside my ear for about 40 seconds. I was screaming. Then it was out.

This has been fun so far, I love the grey of the body, the blue on the pauldrons has come out a touch darker than I hoped, maybe some top highlights will help #warhammer #nerdlings #spacewolves #warhammer30k

Rounding up the hardened criminals right there!
MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”
So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

Wow, I’m not going to forget this one any time soon, a hell of a phrase!
so i used a phrase on the podcast the other week that was indelibly seared into my brain when we read Beloved in HS English, and i have had like half a dozen people ask me WTF since.
perhaps "take some foreskin to Jesus" is a less common expression than i thought it was

Now the news is almost a week old and therefore doesn't count any more, in 2010 I was working with the Danish army in a CP in Afghanistan, obviously we were nowhere near the front lines but this is the view from the sanger I slept next to ('front line' nowhere in to be seen, although 19 people/1

For reference the Boston Massacre only killed 5 and that prompted a revolution…
ICE has killed 9 folks in the first 26 days of ‘26:
• Alex Pretti
• Renee Good
• Keith Porter
• Heber Sanchaz Domínguez
• Victor Manuel Diaz
• Parady La
• Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz
• Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres
• Geraldo Lunas Campos
They all deserve justice. And for us to remember their names.

Anyone fancy some ramparts? I’ve printed more than I need and so I might sell off the spares. A set of 4 is enough for a small fort or a pair of barricades, if you’re interested let me know #wargaming #warhammer #terrain

I hadn’t clocked that he was shot in the back. Awful
The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Welcome to the American Winter
In the frozen streets of Minneapolis, something profound is happening.

Wow, this is horrific!
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

PM of Poland:
"On December 22, 2011, in Ghazni, Afghanistan, I took part in the farewell ceremony for the five fallen Polish soldiers. The American officers who accompanied me then, told me that America would never forget the Polish heroes. Perhaps they will remind President Trump of that fact."

If the admin's strategic goal was to break public resistance to immigration enforcement activities, it was a tactical mistake to go to the Twin Cities.

Canada took down the United States at Davos, leading the way for others to confront the US threat:
"You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination."
This is the beginning of the end of the US.
