Don't like the #SlavestoDarkness spiky maces. So using a spike I cut off a different S2D and a carved down bit of sprue, #kitbash complete - actual warhammer for my #Warhammer. Just gotta let the sprue goo and glue set so I can neaten it up. #Nerdlings #AoS

Kitbash quandary #Nerdlings - I don't want my S2D army to have ratty capes, but all have ratty capes.
Which will be less of a pain in my ass:
1 use sprue goo to fill in holes and sand
2 use epoxy putty to fill in holes and sand
3 obtain capes w/o holes and try to make them fit the models?

Reminder because some apparently need it: every state in the US has immigrants, descendants of immigrants, indigenous people, queers, trans folks, and refugees. Pikachu surprise when fascists fash in your state means you're lying to yourself.

It's been two hours. I cannot feel my right leg, my left asscheek hurts, and my ability to reach my keyboard and work is compromised. Do not send help. #CatsofBluesky

An excellent thing to have in the background when hobbying is Extra History (and the other channels by @extracredits.bsky.social) and thanks to them, I have a physical calendar for the first time in decades!

Today is for finally getting a move on with the Start Collecting #SlavesToDarkness box. So many 8 pointed stars to scrape off while watching friends play board games. #nerdlings #AOS #Warhammer

Trans peeps in England: read this thread. It will explain why and how.
In light of this, Trans Safety Network strongly suggests all transgender people in England consider opting out of their healthcare data being used for research.

Officially in (what I hope is) a temporary really ugly phase for this Daemon Prince scratch build to go with a Slaves to Darkness army. Or I'll have wasted 100 skulls. #warhammer #nerdlings #scratchbuild #wip #AoS

Join us as dig into the Department of Education's reclassification of nursing and other professions, what it means for America's young people and rural communities, and why this isn't just wrong - it's insulting.

Remember the dead. Fight like hell for the living.
On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I would have you remember that there are trans people alive who need your action now, not your reflective words later.
Remembering us is not enough.

Absolutely everything is better with Muppets. Especially the Grimdark Future of Warhammer 40k.
I would pay literal real money for The Muppets Horus Heresy and we all know that The Emperor would be Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Malcador would be Beaker.

What utterly unimportant advice would you give a previous version of yourself?
