I write for Warhammer Community, and I also do other things.

All views my own, naturally.

Now that this place is gathering speed, it feels like time for proper intro.

I’m Luke, I write articles for Warhammer Community, and I paint a little too.

I’ve got a greyhound called Daisy, she’s daft. I also love music and manga.

Looking forward to meeting new folk on a chill new platform.

Okay, I can't let this one go. I live in Ireland, not the UK, but the use of this image by a supposedly socialist party is so stupid and offensive, I'm going to get stuck in.

Let me explain to you why any experienced illustrator/designer could have stopped you making so many miserable mistakes. 1/

NEW VIDEO! At the start of the year, I watched a GDQ run of Elden Ring Bingo by streamers Captain Domo and Adef that was so enthralling that I made a whole video about it. Let's talk about the run, Rocket League, and why such cool things emerge from genre combinations that really shouldn't work!

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

You gotta read this 50,000 word long blog post on [thing]!

No I don’t.

I could do anything in that time.

I could imagine a sunrise.

Gosh, if only someone had already covered how to use choices to build subtext is a characterful linear scene already, in a talk that takes less time to read than a medium post from a guy who seems to have only played one game and that’s cos he wrote it

Let's raise some money for Oz! I've got a Christmas Red Gobbo, painted by me, with some flame effect, that could be yours. I'll start it as a blind auction, DM me with offers over £50 and the highest by the end of the weekend wins. I'll pay for postage in the UK and all the money goes to Oz.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Nice reply "owning" me, unfortunately you parsed 2 levels of irony but missed completely the third, wherein it's clear I'm making fun of the persona your reply intended to critique. That being said I'm still hurt to an almost unimaginable degree

Junji Ito and Garth Marenghi would get on like a house on fire. Thick as thieves. Just two lads like "yeah the whole house turns to mould and kills the owner. No subtext, just mould."
