It is sadly clear that the legacy media is unwilling to stand up to Trump and is capitulating. I started Democracy Docket in 2020 to be fearlessly independent and pro-democracy. It will never bow down. It will never give in. It will never compromise Sign up to support its work! hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

“I had a rough week!”

Evening all. Finally finished my Churchill. It now looks like a tank that has been trundling around the villages and towns of Normandy. I learned the gifts of patience and when to stop with this build and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. #histscalemodels #scalemodels

1/72 Kawanishi H6K5 Type 97 flying boat model 23, allied code name 'Mavis'. Version is Yokohama Naval flying group, Solomon Islands '42. My entry for #HeaviesGB within #histscalemodels

Not too bad from a distance, needs another coat, and then it’s detailing time #histscalemodels #heaviesGB

Rewind: Inspired by the box art - the Airfix Spitfire Mk.Vc 1:72, Algeria 1942, with a convoy of Pit-Road 1:144 "targets of opportunity" modelart.tardate.com/projects/spi... #histscalemodels #scalemodel #72scale

#histscalemodels #scalemodels #heaviesgb #B-58 And a few hours later... This has been a back & forth between 3 colors cleaning up the edges. It's not exactly to plan but it'll come together in the finish I think 🙂

#histscalemodels #scalemodels #heaviesgb #B-58 Now here are some fun B-58 'theoretical' schemes... I found some interesting 'what ifs'... Go ahead, murmur🙂 The B-58 was not so well suited for low level attack BUT the later F-111 & Rockwell B-1B would fulfill this vision more thoroughly.

#histscalemodels #scalemodels #B-58 #heaviesgb Nothing pretty at this stage, BUT... It's better than an hour ago as I do a randomly generated SEA camo scheme... 2 top colors here with a very dark green to go then more putty snakes to blend it properly. Basically I'm copying B52 & F111 schemes here.

I did this figure last year and shared some pics, but I've recently seriously upped my photography game. So, here are some shots that really do it justice. 75mm figure of a curiassier in Swedish service, c. 1630. #histscalemodels #30yearswar

Better than it was, but there's still time to undo all that progress again #histscalemodels

I guess it was the home stretch, all finished. Suzuki Custom Tuned GSX1100S 1/12 TAMIYA

Haven't made any progress on the GB, as Kate has been keeping me occupied #histscalemodels

Main assembly of the RG RX-93 Hi-Nu is done, so I’ll start a new thread to track the rest of its progress. Even at this stage without its backpack, weaponry, other accessories, or topcoat, this mobile suit looks really nice, complete, and well balanced. #gunpla #plamo #realgrade #gundam

Spitfire XVIe is finished! 1/24 Airfix kit with Buchon Models resin conversion for E-wing and low-back/bubble canopy. Decals for 349 (Belgian) Sqn RAF, Fassburg, Germany in Spring 1945. One of the best kits I've ever built, luckily I've a few more in the stash 😉 #histscalemodels #scalemodels

#histscalemodels #heaviesgb #B-58 Ok, finally most of the body work done & primer on the sub assemblies. Only 2 USAF Bomber Wings operated the B58 so markings are mostly rather similar/basic. The kit provides 6 a/c options BUT... I'm thinking 'Project Bullseye' which used camo Hustlers in 1968.

Everything You Need To Know...

Greg Gutfeld’s whole schtick is pretending not to care. But when he says the murder of a Democrat "doesn't matter" because we didn't know her name? That’s GOP propaganda doing what it does best: erasing victims and inflaming hate

Courage. You have it inside of you. Now is the time. Use it.

All the white complete, you can make out the pre-shading the, the camera hasn't picked it up very good. #HeaviesGB #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Camouflage completed. I'm pleased with the paint job. #HistScaleModels

This is why they’re deleting studies

This dog led an officer to his leash while being rescued from his burning home. 14/10 for all (IG: aurorapoliceil)

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

This is a fair point.

#histscalemodels 👇👇👍

Real life has gotten in the way the last week so have done sod all on the B24. Turrets are done, only a final coat on the ball turret to go and everything is masked and ready for the primer to go on. #histscalemodels #heaviesgb

A bit more progress on the Königsberg today. Railings, primary and secondary armaments added, cranes squeezed into place. Finish off the paintwork, lifeboats to be completed and then added. Weathering, and rigging...... nearly there. #histscalemodels

1/24 Spitfire XVIe conversion is nearing the finish line now... painting and decals complete, just weathering and finishing to go 👍 #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Education is the enemy of fascism.

This is a hilarious example of how conservatism's pretenses to limited government, skepticism of majoritarian rule, seperation of powers, and respect for the constitution was always bullshit. But Hillsdale College in particular is one of the most instructive examples of this phenomenon. A long🧵

Brian Kilmeade would have never stated his genocidal beliefs in such an open and flippant manner if the entire culture at Fox News didn't also fully endorse the same genocidal beliefs.
