A #Bruhammer Discord has slowly been taking shape over the last couple of days to discuss our various games - something to supplement our FB groups and our tangle of group chats.
Hoping it will be useful for organising #Oldhammer events in Scotland in the future.

Involved in two secret santa #Warhammer projects this year- one UK wide & one a Scottish #Bruhammer specific one.
One complete and the other is part way through. Should be able to wrap up and send both early December.
No pics for obvious reasons - IT SUPER SEKRIT
Anyone else here doing similar?

Alt: two cartoon characters are standing next to each other - Secret Squirrel and Morocco Mole - grinning with golden teeth
Secret Squirrel is a brown squirrel in a grey trenchcoat with a large purple & black hat covers the top half of his head (though his yellow eyes are visible through the brim)
Morocco Mole is a dark grey mole with a red top, red fez and black sunglasses

The most charitable reading of @heraldscotland.bsky.social naming For Women Scotland's win in the Supreme Court as their "Campaign of the Year" is that the award is for campaigning success, not a judgement on any moral good done. Yet that flies in the face of every previous award in this category.

These people campaigned for and delivered a situation in which any woman who doesn't look feminine enough and any man who doesn't look masculine enough is likely to be challenged, sometimes violently, when simply going to the toilet in a public place. And we're throwing fucking flowers? Seriously?

It's #TransDayOfRemembrance and despite not knowing that at the start of the week I still sent a 600 word email to Private Eye to moan about the TERFy bias in a recent article.
I got an 11 word reply. (Slightly more than i got for a similar email I sent in 2019)

Hi - I’m afraid this isn’t what I ordered

McDONALDS EMPLOYEE:
Number 187?
CUSTOMER:
Yes

CUSTOMER:
Maybe I pressed the wrong thing?
I just ordered one strawberry milkshake.
4
EMPLOYEE:
Oh - yeah sorry
5
EMPLOYEE:
The milkshake machine’s not working.
6
EMPLOYEE:
The only flavours we can do are vanilla, banana, and Labour Leader Pretending to be Nigel Farage.
7
CUSTOMER:
Is that a new flavour?
EMPLOYEE:
Yeah
8
[We now see that the employee has placed a gigantic milkshake cup on the counter]
EMPLOYEE:
If you look inside, there’s a Labour leader pretending to be Nigel Farage.

[Customer looks inside the cup]
10
[Show Keir Starmer dressed as Nigel Farage inside the cup]
CUSTOMER:
So there is

CUSTOMER:
Is that something people want, then?
EMPLOYEE:
No! No, not at all.

EMPLOYEE:
It just keeps happening when we press banana.
