“I took this gig in good faith, assuming that my head would be chopped off before I even got to the hotel. What I found may surprise you/make you a hypocrite. Right? No? What else what else”

every time you read a story about how no-strings-attached direct payments to vulnerable, marginalized or otherwise needy people are a big net profit to the society disbursing them, and you ask "why doesn't america do that?", please know that this is the answer why

four types of private schools in america: 1) catholic schools for racists 2) nondenom schools that dont teach you science 3) hippie schools that dont teach you to read, inexplicably 87% matriculation @ top 20 colleges 4) hogwarts, costs 55k/yr, explicably 99% matriculation @ top 20 colleges

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

The CBS takeover by Larry Ellison and Bari Weiss is the most foreboding move in a while, and I’m not saying that lightly. It will have an effect on the 2026 elections: CBS will now lie to people and normies will believe it.

Columbus City Schools may have to stop bussing high school students entirely because Ohio law requires public school districts to prioritize bussing for charter and private school students - and the state is already fining Columbus more than $10 million/year for not complying enough

John from Can You Roll a Crit? returns to cover the brand new reveal of Dead Silence!

I'm starting a new series on tournament terrain layouts, starting with GW Layout 1: www.goonhammer.com/40k-start-co... #goonhammer #warhammer40k #40k

Today Rob starts a new line in our Start Competing series: Official GW terrain layouts for 40K play! He begins, rather sensible, with Layout 1.

The more people that turn up and show Wizards that supporting trans people is popular, the better. Make it inescapably clear to them who their players are and what you care about.

Absolutely INSANE use of passive voice in this CNN piece just incredible @katmabu.bsky.social “landed on the ground” during the protest???

Here we see law enforcement pegging the media using the English language as the dildo

Liberals: don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good Me: yeah fair ok, show me the good Liberals: this isn't the time for fucking purity tests you little shit

"enshrined a tradition" is an incredible feat of weasel wording, my man. if you had an explicit mandate to confuse the question of the Trump coin's legality you could hardly do better

In his final Road to LVO XII, Ben Jurek runs through his final event prep and how he chose which army to bring.

a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

This week I'm talking about my games at Challenger's Cup: www.goonhammer.com/thechirurgeo... #goonhammer #40k

The state could have backed him but instead they demonstrated for the thousandth time that there is no level of respectability that will prevent white people from serving you up on a platter in order to appease powerful racists.

They’re literally giving prosecutors the names of people and organizations, and telling them to go find crimes. It’s clear from the NYT that the directive came from Trump. This is a direct consequence of Roberts explicitly immunizing weaponization of DOJ in Trump v. US.

Lots of effort went into this series, why not give it a click (if only for all the pretty pictures of stormcast and extremely cool header image Rob drew)

I was listening to an old Casey Kasem American Top 40 (I find this soothing these days) from 1985 where he told the story of Wendy Carlos, who scored The Shining and Tron, and her journey to becoming trans. Casey got all the pronouns right and it was presented as a slice of life, feel good story

there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him

It's a big week for Palatine Enforcers reinforcements. The Bastions of Law book dropped, alongside the Palanite Enforcer Captains & Sergeants, Weapons Upgrades (long rifles and new heads!), Enforcer Haunts,...

Genghis Cohen, with help from Fowler and Primaris Kevin, take a look at the new Necromunda sourcebook Bastions of Law!

10 years of fundraising emails off the spectre of authoritarian assault on democracy and now that the far right is once again in power and openly doing everything to prevent ever losing it, and the last time I can recall Schumer making an effort it was to ensure the budget funding the assault passed

this bread is terrible. but the circuses? also really terrible

We've seen what collaboration with Trump has brought us: money stolen from city accounts, cuts to essential services, New Yorkers as young as six deported. Cuomo offers more of the same. I am prepared to fight back.

The Road Through 2025 continues as TheChirurgeon takes on the Tabled Talk GT and scores a surprising finish!

Since Michael turned off replies and quote tweets, like any good journalist seeking the truth would, I'll point out that people like him, Nate Silver, Matt Yglesias, etc. say shit like this as cover for the fact that THEY DO NOT SUPPORT THE POLICY AND THEY WANT IT TO FAIL.

More hobby progress this week, and I talk about how to run HeroQuest for a bunch of nine-year olds www.goonhammer.com/thechirurgeo... #goonhammer #warhammer #heroquest #40k

Arcane Journal: Dawn of the Storm Dragon is here for Cathay from Warhammer The Old World, introducing Miao Ying (the titular Storm Dragon) and much more!

Miao Ying, the Storm Dragon is here and Rich "Cronch" Nutter is taking a look at how Cathay's new model assembles, paints, and looks.

We are finally finished with the Underworld films at Century of the Vampire. It'd be wrong to say it ended on a high note, but Blood Wars had some juice.

This week I'm making tweaks to my Death Guard and playing HeroQuest with the kids: www.goonhammer.com/thechirurgeo... #goonhammer #warhammer40k #warhammer #40k

what is going ON over there at #txlege

“In my heart, I just feel like this is wrong — all of it.” said Rep. Nicole Collier, in a new statement. “Over the past month, I have been threatened with fines, surrounded by law enforcement, endured a bomb threat, …” Video of the exchange here: x.com/TheDemocrats...

Today's update fixes a number of key balance issues for 40k. We talk about what's changed and what it means.

In Part 1 of a new series, Gengis Cohen begins the comprehensive work of getting you ready to build lists in competitive Infinity N5.

I've had the survivorship bias plane model explained at length but honestly this diagram makes WAY more intuitive sense because I am a pervert and not an aeronautics engineer.

Pleased to paint the new Nighthaunt Lord Vitriolic for @goonhammer.com ! Tried to do a modern version of my Nighthaunt army scheme, think he came out well. #AdWIP #NewAOS #WarhammerCommunity

This week we do a deep lore dive into the Grey Knights. Want to know why people are upset about the Terminus Decree all of a sudden? We talk about it! www.goonhammer.com/the-lore-exp... #warhammer #40k #goonhammer

the idea of EVENT HORIZON as a transcendent lost classic sabotaged by studio interference is very funny in context of how the rest of Paul W. S. Anderson's career went after that

I'm happy that someone finally wrote a fitting takedown about the nightly food fights on Abby Phillip's CNN show. @oliverdarcy.bsky.social: "That CNN... continues to treat its prime time platform as a stage for clowns rather than serious voices is disheartening, to put it gently."
