🧵 Dear all ( #nerdlings, old #toycollectors, #diecastcars enthusiasts, #warmongers, #boardgamers et al.) in Belgium and possibly close-by:

Due to reasons I will have to get rid of quite some stuff. To be clear: mostly not talking about systematically collected or pristine items ... [1/X]

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

“The Defense Department has confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America,” the Pentagon Press Association said

Oct. 15, 2025
PENTAGON PRESS ASSOCIATION
STATEMENT
Today, the Defense Department confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America. It did this because reporters would not sign onto a new media policy over its implicit threat of criminalizing national security reporting and exposing those who sign it to potential prosecution.
The Pentagon Press Association's members are still committed to reporting on the U.S. military. But make no mistake, today, Oct. 15, 2025 is a dark day for press freedom that raises concerns about a weakening U.S. commitment to transparency in governance, to public accountability at the Pentagon and to free speech for all.

Reuters reporting this blatant crime as if it’s a lunch date is a prime example of the kind of careless, aloof normalization in journalism that has greased the skids of this catastrophic authoritarian power grab.

Extremely fast missiles that are very hard to interrupt are simply raining on peaceful homes far away from the front line + targeting critical infrastructure that ensures we don't freeze in the dark during winter. Every russian citizen is responsible for this.

The guy who tells people with collections of painted minis to 'throw them in the bin, tourist!' will do what he always does.
Mull it over, realize its the only thing that gets him clicks, & invent a new lie that means he is winning actually.

In the early 50s summarily executing a whole camp's worth of pows also would have created much more of a fuss than in the chaotic days of '45. Internally and externally.

This is the copy of the WFRP 4th edition rulebook that I used while writing the Enemy Within Director's Cut. I put a notarized statement to that effect in the front, vaguely intending to auction it for charity.
Since I was laid off, I now need the money for rent and food.
Would anyone bid on this?

Hi everyone! I'm Sam, freelancer and illustrator on a variety of Warhammer tabletop roleplaying games. Here's a tiny slice of what I do:

An Ash Drake ambushes a rather overmatched Chaos warband.

Aeldari factions combine forces against a horde of Orks in this cover illustration for Aeldari - Inheritance of Embers for Wrath & Glory.

A tale as old as time: Guy uploads his entire stash of 187,000 pornographic images to a Department of Energy network so he can train an AI to "make better 'robot pornography,'" gets caught, gripes that the DOE (which is charged with maintaining nuclear secrets) is "spying on him a little too much."

Man Stores AI-Generated Robot Porn on His Government Computer, Loses Access to Nuclear Secrets

A man who works for the people overseeing America’s nuclear stockpile has lost his security clearance after he uploaded 187,000 pornographic images to a Department of Energy (DOE) network.

All these tests should first be taken by the politicians who vote for them. And everyone who fails gets immediately on a one-way flight to Rwanda. Imagine the amount of money that could be saved by that.
