I like painting toy soldiers, wargaming, programming in dead languages on dead computers, collecting comic books, and having very long naps.
I don't follow back follow farmers.

I’m going to make a more concerted effort to post and share stuff about my hobbies rather than politics.
I would like to get back to wargames, retro computers, and comic books filling my feed.
Maybe because I don’t post anything specific most who follow me back seem to mute or ignore me.

A couple of my Xmas purchases arrived earlier this week. OST v3 (Old School Tactical) by Flying Pig Games, and Modern Tactics Afghanistan published by Vuca Sims.
I had no idea how big OST really was! Both games are the same core system by Shayne Logan.
Copy of Rifts for scale. 😆

Some of my 6mm napoleonics.
Irregular minis, and mostly just tiny splodges of red, blue, skin colour, and black.
French flags were easier to hand paint to be fair. 😂
But with reading glasses and a cheap plastic over the head magnifier they went very quickly.🙂

Wow, it seems my time supporting Warlord Games is at an end.
I'll be selling the lot (I have many many more Warlord books and boxes, but these were just in immediate reach.
A shame because Priestly is my favourite wargame designer, but hey, I still have Warmaster.

This is Peanut. His name isn't Peanut because he's small. It's because he is a lethal threat to a significant portion of the population. Still 13/10 (IG: peanut_tacoterrier)

So Microslop are going all in on their slopfest and renaming Office to Copilot App.
Good on them for finding a way to show profits from their non profitable plagiarist slop engine.
Just rename profitable products.

First thing to do in the new year is clear the desk.
Well, a bit.
And so I did a quick dash to the finish with Minerva here. Nothing special but the base is my own paste mix which could herald good things to come if this works out.

In an effort to sweep 2025's poor effort in painting minis under the rug, I ordered a few hex and counter wargames.
Christmas sales are the best time to buy, especially when you have as little discipline as I do.

Should be a fascinating discussion between a Catholic fascist and a Reformed fascist about their mutual dream of building a totalitarian Christian nationalist dictatorship in which the other one will be banned from holding any position of influence because they are the wrong denomination.

Drawing boot in the face of techbro? Unhinged, apparently.
Pushing gen ai, polluting planet, causing unemployment and death, maling people dumber, stealing their work, lying, cheating? Cool, actually.
This is why the block feature is here. Time for discussion about gen ai is long gone.
