Everyone at my local gaming club has had 40k so far!

I should add that I gave up on painting my blood angels because of how much edge highlighting these models need. This will be a particular challenge for me!

Trying my hand at the @travellingmanuk.bsky.social #ageofpainttober challenge this year and here’s my mystery haul. I got a Space Marine intercessor… built so many of these for my blood angels army 😩 I was really hoping for an #ageofsigmar model!

Finished off my second unit of Rockguts. Inverted the blue/purple from the first unit. I dont think the palette is as good, prefer the higher contrast of the blue ones, but they look pretty neat side by side.

That’s funny, I listened to a podcast recently that said the very same thing. How in the age of “no homo”, Jackass was unashamedly homo erotic pop culture tv, where the cast openly asked each other for help without qualifying it. They’re a community and they openly love each other.

Screen cap from the Teletubbies wiki page that says “Dipsy is 8 feet tall and is green.” “8 feet tall” is highlighted.

Lowering the flags on 9/11 at the Guantanamo Bay McDonald's for Charlie Kirk is the most dril tweet thing that's ever happened

Carol Rosenberg @carolrosenbergnyt.bsky.social · 27d

The flags were lowered last night around the base by order of President Trump after the killing of Charlie Kirk and will stay at half-staff on this U.S. outpost in southeast Cuba until sunset on Sunday.

I finished painting my primal manifestations last night. Thought I’d knock these out pretty quickly but I got a bit fixated on the gnashing jaws - already nicknamed “joker teeth” at the lgc

Won two games of Age of Sigmar today. But there are always casualties in war (sat on my Boingrot Bounders). #ageofsigmar #WarhammerCommunity

Extremely tired of being bombarded by microsoft’s AI propaganda.

A microsoft windows 10 screensaver image. There is text over a beautiful rocky mountains landscape. The text reads “AI is helping create the ‘library of the future’ in Colorado.

My opponent didn’t have any wizards and Skraggrott really got to do what he liked, but I ended up having to sacrifice him towards the end to secure victory. #ageofsigmar #warhammercommunity

Freshly painted Skraggers ready for tomorrow’s game!

I finished painting these two at the same time a couple of weeks ago. Fungus and Mildew, my Dankhold Troggoths, neither of which is in my current army list! #ageofsigmar #warhammercommunity #gloomspitegitz #miniaturepainting

A warhammer minature Dankhold Troggboss, nicknamed “Fungus”. A giant bright pink troggoth (troll) brandishing a broken off stalagmite club in one hand and crushing a giant centipede with the other.

Lot’s of great jokes about one war criminal nominating another for the peace prize, and I sincerely hope the letter is used for toilet paper, but then you remember that the Nobel Committee previously awarded that prize to Henry Kissinger…

Today I learned (via @jamieloftus.bsky.social ‘s 16th Minute pod) that NewGrounds.com started as a NEO•GEO fanzine in the 90s and suddenly the name makes so much sense.

I think teenage me assumed it started as a genuine dot-com news site???

Finding out for the first time that Studio Ghibli’s Grave of the Fireflies is based on a short story of the same name, which is in turn based on real life experience of the author, who wrote it as a personal apology to his younger sister…
