Getting snow where you are? Did you know that there are 121 categories of snowflake? ❄️ This graphic is an old favourite which gives an overview of the 39 intermediate categories: www.compoundchem.com/2014/12/10/s... 🧪

And in other terrain news, work on the fields for Pillage continues. Bit of drybrushing and some static grass should finish these off. #terrain

Stirred up the hive a bit this evening, didn't I? Some bloke in an office in Nottingham tomorrow like "what the fuck is a blue sky, and who's kitbashing cats?!?" Seems fair I repost this:

I painted some last year! Definitely need to do more.

So I haven't painted historicals... But I have painted A LOT of vaguely almost historicals. (Star wars)

Oh noes! I must have painted all these in my sleep or something; hippolytastinyfootsteps.blogspot.com/2025/01/17th...

John Stallard of Warlord Games can fuck off

For reference:

It is a well-known fact that women aren't interested in historical wargaming, and we only paint fairies and unicorns and princesses. As proof, behold these four completely blank images that do not feature historical miniatures I have painted. Fellow femmes, share your own! #Nerdlings

This is also John Stallard, by the way. Source: www.goonhammer.com/goonhammer-h...

It just keeps getting easier to hate this guy. Darlings, please don't buy from @warlordgames.com. It's as simple as that.

Now and forever. Thanks to @fenrisgames.com for my swanky new t-shirt 😎

Hooray! I've just read the beginning of Cosmic Dark and I love the in game method of character creation. I might give this a try at MK-RPG.

Drop some BOOKS 📚 🖤 📖

Deep Thought pondered for a moment. "Tricky," he said.

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance". It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder". The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

Series B, Episode 04 - Horizon CALLY: You have to accept these findings. BLAKE: I accept them. But where are WE going to find a centre that will take US in for a month's rest and rehabilitation? https://blake.torpidity.net/m/204/6

The UK most definitely should not have got involved in this. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Yet again, the government caves in after pressure from the big house-building companies. Spineless and useless. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I just read that there's no women into historical wargaming, and then noticed I AM FADING AWAY HELP I KNEW I DIDNT EXIST avenge meeeeeeee

First game of Aces: Scouring Sands, the new cooperative supplement to Battletech Alpha Strike with @cgoepa.bsky.social and @battlebrushstudios.bsky.social. Very interesting game, works quite well and was fun to play. Looking forward to the full campaign! #battletech

Gearing up to test out the new Aces automated opponent deck that came with the Scouring Sands box. Just a small objective raid to start things off (the campaign coins are the objectives)

Test Scouring Sands mission two. #battletech #tabletop #wargaming

Johnny Mnemonic : A film which is both brilliant and not. Everytime I watch it, it feels like its on the verge of greatness, but cant seem to grasp it. Wild to think the Matrix comes out 4 years after this. #Movie #Moviesky #Film #Filmsky #Scifi #cyberpunk

Almost certainly the most psychedelic photo I have taken of a bullock at sunset.

I'd love to think that there is a future where authors can completely disengage from Amazon and still earn a living. Where they feel no pressure to view Amazon sales rank or total Amazon reviews as a barometer of their success. We are not there yet. But some of us can hope. bsky.app/profile/dj-a...

Useful, though, as it gave me the final push to ditch Facebook. That moronic twat inferno is really not worth the hassle, just to sell seven more books per year.

Good morning everyone ❄️ #Shada #ChrisParsons #Romana #DrWho

UK peeps and anyone with a decent VPN looking for respite from the grim news cycle should be advised that BBC Sounds have a splendid Radio documentary about the making of The Muppet Show. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Farage is a piece of shit who doesn't give a fuck about anyone else but him. What a shocker.

Priming up some OPFOR Jade Falcons for #Battletech Aces tonight. #PewPewPew

I bet you could organize an impressive wargaming figurines collection in an old cart-catalog cabinet extremely well.

Christmas What a Tanker game

Platea- Charles Grant would have liked

"Are you alone?" he said. "Yes," said Marvin. "Wearily I sit here, pain and misery my only companions. And vast intelligence of course. And infinite sorrow."

Daily bunny no.3192 is tampering with the past

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history. Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸
