THANK YOU!

Not to mention, during the Siege of Terra - after he fell to Chaos - Magnus nearly blew up his own infiltration mission to save *enemy civilians.*

As a US History teacher, modern-day Republicans trying to claim the legacy of the 1860s Republicans makes me gag and demonstrates a baffling level of historical ignorance.

Especially because the Venn diagram of these people and the "heritage not hate" people is a circle.

The people who view the inclusion of women in their hobby as ruining it are incapable of maintaining a healthy relationship with a woman?

Shocking!

The fucking balls to say "And what do you know of the lore?" like some 10,000-year-old wizard and then just be objectively wrong immediately afterwards.

Orks' collective subconscious psychic weirdness is one of the most frequently-misunderstood pieces of lore in the setting, I swear.

A great acid test for someone who claims to be "interested in WWII history" is their opinion on the leadership abilities of Hitler.

I am German-American. I love my heritage and am passionate about German history.

I also fucking hate Nazis and think they got off way too light at Nuremburg. People who try to get away with saying Nazi shit because they're just "interested in the history" can fuck all the way off.

See, this right here is honestly one of the most telling indicators.

To them, female Space Marines would invalidate Sisters of Battle (and female Custodes invalidate SoS) because to them, the only thing special about SoB or SoS is that they are the "girl factions."

Firstly; holy fuck these Custodes sculpts look so good.

Secondly, the minute I saw these, I knew exactly the right people would be unreasonably pissed off, and I was not wrong.

"Laughing at the haters"

My man, you are the haters.

Living in the US right now has given me all sorts of perspective on the ordinary citizens living under authoritarian regimes throughout history.

"After the fact" and not "as a result" means that, by this logic, the first person to steal someone else's goat is responsible for every death in the history of warfare.

GW just doesn't give AF about Chaos anymore, sadly (except Nurgle, sometimes). TSons don't have magic any more, just guns with the Psychic keyword (which is objectively a debuff).

I mean this is honestly far from the worst part about this whole dumpster fire but I glanced down and saw this at the bottom... definitely continuing the Third Reich, I guess.

Sigmar's one big failing IMO is that the man who was going to become Archaon literally begged him to give him a reason not to end the world and Sigmar was like "Y'all hear sumn?"

Just a single divine manifestation and an "I got you, bro" could have saved the world, but no.

...the day, eating a good sandwich, hearing a song you like.

There is still so much good in the world, if you choose to look for it in the small places.

That is a definition that you can change.

I can't pretend to understand your pain but I have dealt with depression for years and I know that you can choose how you view "success."

Sometimes success is making an impact on the world, landing a good job, whatever. Sometimes it's living through...

By whose definition?
January 4, 2026 at 5:33 AM
...generation.

I know right now it feels hopeless but this empire will fall, like all the others, and what will be left afterwards is up to us and how much basic human goodness we are able to preserve in all the small ways available to us.
January 4, 2026 at 5:26 AM
...burdens for a moment - your life will not have been in vain.

At the end of the day, we as humans live for each other. Throughout the darkest times in history, people have still found ways to carry on, to hold on to the little lights left to them, to carry the torch forward for the next...

A life well-lived never amounts to nothing.

They cannot take from us the beauty of an autumn sunset, the tranquility of a hot beverage and a good book, the warmth of a loving touch.

As long as you can touch another person's life in some way - even just to offer a helping hand or lighten their...

Orks or Tyranids? No.

But the Aeldari, T'au, or any of the civilizations like the Interex that the Imperium wiped from existence during the Great Crusade?

As an ancient history buff I'm used to finding fault with costumes in movies. I was prepared to (grudgingly) tolerate Odysseus' Spirit Halloween generic Greek fusion outfit if the movie was otherwise good.

But this? I don't have words for this. I don't even know where to begin.

This has been genuinely my approach to the afterlife. I'm straight-up building my own.
