#hobbystreak Day 2070: painted the base with a quick layer of dark green. Started the nurglings with a yellowy green contrast and then quickly splashed them with a wide variety of contrast paints, focusing mostly on bruising colours. I'll probably drybrush threm and pick out the bone details

It is important to keep in mind that a lot of the natalist panic in the West is in response to a successful feminist push to reduce the rates of child rape.

(Teenage girls are statistically most often knocked up by adult men. I think the average age is around 23.)

"The Pope isn't responsible for the American Congress of Bishops banning trans healthcare" so the thing about the power of the Pope is that he could just overwrite them if BANNING ALL TRANS HEALTHCARE FOR EVERYONE ADULTS AND MINORS ALIKE was something he cared about

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Daisy Ridley’s Instagram Story:
“The death sentences of 12,000
Palestinian prisoners have been approved. 4,000 of them are children.
For wanting to live in their homeland and for defending their occupied territories, a total of 400,000 Palestinians have been martyred over the past 78 years. Now, 12,000 more people will be executed in full view of the world. The executions will take place within 90 days.
Please don't be silent.
If humanity doesn't rise up today, when will it? If we don't show our humanity today, when will we? Please don't stay silent.
Share. Oppose these executions...”

A screenshot of a text from Amazon.

Amazon: Your package was delivered!

(attached is a picture of a box with a piece of paper that reads DO NOT GO OUTSIDE)

The receiver sends a question mark as a response.

Amazon sends another picture with the same piece of paper on the box, but the words are covered in blood along with the message "JUST KIDDING :)" in blood.

I disagree with the flak this app gets. Just don't follow people that make you cringe. Mute them. Follow the funny ones. It's like hanging out in the coloring book section of a bookstore and being like wow this place is for idiots

A grayscale skaven engineer and nurgling pile, with pale, desaturated blue gray highlights

#hobbystreak Day 2069: two quick layers of dry brushing on the engineer and pile of nurglings. Not sure I'll be able to get the depth right without UV resin but I'd like to have the nurglings wading through a murky swamp that's nearly swallowing some of the lower ones

unironically a beautiful and effective way to keep grifters out. if you get filtered by an anime catgirl popping up for 2 seconds because it's too cringe and gay for you was your heart really in the systems programming?

i think it's partially the nature of platforms like bluesky/twt/tiktok etc. where it's very easy to be flooded with a large variety of small tidbits of information on topics. it's often presented without a ton of context either so developing fleshed out opinions is a more frequent, larger task

This is not a knock on DMB but if you had told me twenty years ago that Dave Mathews would be this outspoken on an issue that Radiohead completely shat the bed on, well... I would've been surprised!

The Iron Dome itself betrays the fraud of an "offensive weapons" distinction, because it permits Israel to be the aggressor without consequences.

Israel escalates attacks on medics in Lebanon with deadly ‘quadruple tap’ Lebanese health ministry says killing of 91 healthcare workers shows ‘total disregard’ for international law

The Israeli army struck civilians in the Lebanese city of Mayfadoun.

And then, the Israelis double-tapped the medics who arrived onto the scene.

And then, they triple-tapped the next wave of medics.

And then, they did it one more time for good measure.

What do people actually think Nelson Mandela and Gandhi were demanding, vis-a-vis the South African and British governments, respectively?

Because it wasn't demilitarized quasi-autonomous economic enterprise zones under foreign security supervision.

#hobbystreak Day 2066: wasn't quite certain what to paint next so I dug through my box of random minis and dug up some more terrain to use as a backup. Spray primed them black, tomorrow will hopefully find something I actually want to paint or assemble

always thought that when writing for general audiences, academics oughta stray away from the Latin "cum" for "also," but this has got to be the worst example of that I've ever seen
