it would be extremely funny if James Workshop had resolved the "female space marines" problem by saying that all XX space marines are transmasc as a consequence of the geneseed
space marine is transing yourself into Bonus Male
tbh if you take the 'space marine is a gender like transmasc' assumption seriously 'at least a few of these chapters select for goth girls' also makes sense

Oh shit! @meeshbeastie.bsky.social and I are gonna watch this so many times. Pretty sure she has read the books more times than I have.
I imagined the Chatsubo in 1984. 41 years later I opened its door. Neuromancer is in production.

I finally finished reading 'Elemental Council' by @noahvannguyen.bsky.social and I got to say I loved it. It reminded me of a scifi version of a Vietnam War drama. Theres so much more to it than that, but thats the short sell. God, those characters will stick with me for a long time.

I don't remember if it was a Tumblr or Twitter-That-Was post I've saw it in, but I love the idea that the Predator is Jerry From Accounts Receivable who went to a human reserve for a trophy hunt on his vacation and it's a damn shame what happened to him.
Predator one and two leaves open this ambiguity re whether Predators are noble warriors, honourable hunters, or basically just an interstellar version of rich arseholes hunting giraffes with a sniper rifle. I feel like Predator: Killer of Killers definitively settles it in favour of the second view.

A funny thing abput being a game dev is that I spend so much time staring at totally broken stuff while working on a game that a lot of the little bugs and problems in publushed games just sort of wash over me. I notice them, they are there, but I just...don't care. Did it crash? No. Good, lets go.

If I could pitch a #Warhammer40k video game right now it would be a #Killteam Xcom-like in the vein of Chaosgate:Daemonhunters. That game is pretty solid, but I want to take it up a step with multiple campaigns focusing on different teams in the same Killzone.

The reason generative AI is so popular with wannabe creatives is best illustrated by something every pro writer has encountered: getting pitched an idea by someone saying "You write it and we'll split the profits!" because they think the idea is what has value, not the writing. The opposite is true.

It's #Warhammer40k day today. Doing a big threeway battle - The #TauEmpire efforts to stop a #Tyranid splinterfl fleet have roused the forces of a #Necron tomb world from their slumber.
We are using some house rules to keep this threeway battle intersting, excited to see how it goes!

Got dinner from a great Thai place in town, love the pineapple fried rice, but...the lowest spice level is like no flavor and the next level up is almost too hot to eat. Please, I'm very white and trying to learn how to enjoy spicy things. I need something with just a little kick.

As a game dev whose been watching my industry and coworkers get absolutely wrecked recently - I can believe that publushers and executives are predatory AND that games are underpriced.

40k doesn't succeed as satire not because it hasn't accurately pegged a certain kind of fascist, but simply because it's attempt to be an over the top version of them fails to go further than their real rhetoric.

I love that the power loader in Aliens isn't a mecha fighting suit, Ripley is just beating the Queen's ass with a forklift that walks

I went to my first #Warhammer40k tourney last night in ages. It was just a little local shop running a combat patrol bracket thing. There only ended up being 4 of us and I faced off against some Chaos Knights with my #LesguesOfVotann Ended up really close and I learned what not to do.

I have been wanting to get the new Vespid #Killteam for my #TauEmpire #Warhammer40k and @meeshbeastie.bsky.social and I worked together to knock these bugs out in record time! Overall, I love how these came out, their shiny shells andglittering wings. This squad is gonna be great to play with.
