Screenshot from Europa Universalis 5 showing me (Castile) at war with Aragon over a stretch of Western Spain. There's numbers aplenty and hidden somewhere is the funny sex number. There's maybe 89 discrete numbers, with the 69 being the fraction of enemy soldiers out of 250 that are holding a fort of Aragon off in one corner.

ah, the classic image returns
Edited image from 2006's Casino Royale, with Mads Mikkelsen in a suit playing Warhammer 40k. He looks self-assured against a Tau gunline with the text; "Tau, Mr Bond? Embarrassing. I cast "Da Jump" and put 30 Ork Boyz in the rear of your gun line. Waaaaagh, Mr Bond."

The screaming guy meme where he's in front of a gnarly dust devil, with the text "HERE IT COMES". A dust devil is a mini tornado, whipping up some red sand in this case against a blue sky. The guy is like wilding out about it.

gotta be honest, I think the genocide by an apartheid state is far more important than a single fucking soccer game

the US should just keep naming things the M1 tbh

it was a good bit
Wikipedia disambiguation of things called "M1" - with entries under 'Military Equipment'. Things include the American Abrams tank, the American M1 armoured car, the M1 light and medium and heavy tractors, two or three American anti-aircraft guns,several American field gun, the American M1 Garand, etc. There's about 25 things that are American.

A "tank alignment chart" where Structure Purist/Neutral/Radical intersect with Doctrine Purist/Neutral/Radical. Examples are given of Purist-Purist intersections such as the good ol' T-55 to more Radical "tanks" such as the Strv 103, AMX-10RC, and the Toyota Land Cruiser pickup-truck as a technical, with a big machine gun welded on the back.

man, that's fucked up

(game: the Europa Universalis 4 mod, "Anbennar")
In-game event called 'Harassment of Gnomes" where the text is about a province harassing gnomish residents with some extremists dressing up gnomes and forcing them to guard their garden. There's then three options; - Ignoring the issue - Doing something - or supporting the harassment

i laughed at loud at this bit in the gender section, which is great

White text on a blue background that reads; "Perhaps while the Emperor ordered, for whatever reason, that only men should be made Space Marines, there’s nothing actually stopping it, and in the millenia since some Chapters have opened up recruiting and others haven’t. The Space Wolves make an obvious candidate for this take; not only does this dovetail beautifully with the historical Shieldmaiden concept, but the Emperor’s ‘No Girls Allowed’ sign cannot stop Space Wolves because they cannot read."

Three panel comic of from the Gravity Falls: Lost Legends book of a gnome sitting facing a fire while sitting in a comfy chair, drink in hand. 1st panel; The gnome sips their drink. 2nd panel; The gnome looks deep into the fire as the room darkens. The gnome says the words; "It torments me." 3rd panel; The gnome continues to look deeply into the flames as the room remains dark. Silence.

A spaceman gazes down a gravity well to the planet below them, arms crossed behind the back and shoulders strong. Stern. Next to them, on the same platform, there are warheads primed and ready, but are they needed? For there are already great atomic fires down in the green and blue.

I think this is a good idea, and should also be done with starting wars.

And it's gotta be someone the leader KNOWS and LIKES.
Text from Wikipedia that reads; "Fisher was known for a unique idea towards nuclear deterrence. In a March 1981 article in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, while discussing the importance on reaching a "wise decision", especially in terms of nuclear arms, he suggested implanting the nuclear launch codes in a volunteer. If the President of the United States wanted to activate nuclear weapons, he would be required to kill the volunteer to retrieve the codes. My suggestion was quite simple: Put that needed code number in a little capsule, and then implant that capsule right next to the heart of a volunteer. The volunteer would carry with him a big, heavy butcher knife as he accompanied the President. If ever the President wanted to fire nuclear weapons, the only way he could do so would be for him first, with his own hands, to kill one human being. The President says, "George, I'm sorry but tens of millions must die." He has to look at someone and realize what death is—what an innocent death is. Blood on the White House carpet. It's reality brought home. When I suggested this to friends in the Pentagon they said, "My God, that's terrible. Having to kill someone would distort the President's judgment. He might never push the button." — Roger Fisher, Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, March 1981"

Land Rover, you dogs you
Alongside a small image of a hideous yellow "truck" that looks like it's swollen with buboes, there's text from wikipedia that reads; "Thirty-one 101s were converted by Land Rover with styled bodyshells for the 1995 Sylvester Stallone film Judge Dredd. Land Rover is supposedly the world's only surviving ground vehicle manufacturer in 2139 when the film is set, and the green oval logo can be seen on the side of the vehicles, known as "City CABs". Several of these prop vehicles still exist in driveable condition and these can be seen at Land Rover events."
