Just a weird neurodivergent lefty nerd trying to be a decent human being and make, modify & fix things. What kinda things? More or less anything. Art, models, games, cars, society. You know, things. He/him/his (mostly).
...you know what, it probably is to my benefit that the LCAF continue to believe that so sure, yeah, of course.
There definitely isn't a Locust behind you with a C3 unit or anything.

Honestly I think the DE are actually more populous than the Craftworld Eldar, they're just less engaged with Galactic politics.
There's a strong chance the Exarch population dwarfs both, but they don't engage with Galactic politics at all.

I 100% think you should do April 1st BtB episodes on 40K characters.
Also looking forward to the WH meme episodes :)

I don't watch TV much but the last video I watched was a simulated battle between USS New Mexico and HMS Warspite.
Does that mean I have two entire WW2 battleships coming after me?
That could either be very good news, or EXTREMELY bad news lol.

I have 100% done that before.

Personally I don't like the way it winds up looking anyway. Show of skill, sure, but it only ever looks particularly good in photos taken from a particular angle.
Still, each to their own. I'm not gonna tell someone else how to paint their own minis.

Yeah, I wasn't trying to imply you were ignoring the other side of the coin. There's enough context to indicate that you'd be aware of it all. I worry that we might not be the only people reading the thread though, I guess, and it doesn't hurt for me to remind *myself.*

And of course the discrimination is intersectional, it ramps up. Neurodivergence isn't a racially-locked phenomenon any more than it is a gendered one. My Black ND comrades get the double dose.

It's wrapped up in the same framework as white supremacy & patriarchy of course. ND AFAB & nonwhite people get it even worse because there's unfortunately a chunk of the white male autistic crowd who find the black & whites of fascism attractive.
Don't even get me started on "aspie supremacy" shit.

100% would rather see a stylised piece that tells me a story & feels alive over a sterile "hyper=realistic" image.

If Behind the Bastards has taught me anything, it's that this sort of thing happens all the time, we just usually don't hear about it.
It's super easy for privileged dickheads who've been told their entire lives that they're special to vastly overestimate their own capabilities.

For the people blinking at the back, 'biological sex' isn't a thing. We're a bunch of genetic accidents that mostly but not always coalesce vaguely around some kind of functionally fertile guess at how to get the next generation started.

As a result it is seen as part of the background environment by many, rather than something we are complicit in enacting and therefore capable of preventing. This is a desired outcome, as it is what allows the wealthy and powerful to continue accumulating wealth and power.

Hmm, the greatest success of the "civilisation" of the West and the way capitalism has replaced colonialism as the modern chains of Empire is in my view not a reduction in harm but a concealment of it; and a dilution of responsibility for it to such an extent that blame is impossible to assign.

It proably says something about me that the one of these I'm most excited about is the Lexus.
I'm not sure what, or if it's anything good, but still.
