Today I bought a storage box for my ducks, and got the painted (not fully based) minis together for the first time. It’s starting to look like a small army now! Big boost for my motivation. #nerdlings

This one article precisely sums up what is wrong with game development at Games Workshop. Who wants their game to be 'shaken up'?

The YouTube 'Not Interested' option is clearly not actually marking content as something you aren't interested in.
I can't believe that the programmers at YouTube are so bad that it is just a bug or poorly written code. It is "working" for what YouTube wants. So what is that?

So it has been very hot in the UK for quite some time. Why are there not a lot of news articles about it? Is it just that it isn't killing people? Is it not hot enough for it to be newsworthy?

I wonder if @thearmypainter.bsky.social is going to be coming out with a line of Fanatic paint pens?
I know they have an upcoming release of their Speedpaint pens but what I really want is a way to do easy highlights.
