SMRT FAŠIZMU!

Brand new shirts from our buddies at #BackInTheDeck! I can finally get a wearable wizard of my own teepublic.com/user/bid-p-mer…

@FB_BMB I am still shocked that show, which got an Australian remake, never got an American remake Imagine Neg urban sprinting at Mall of America or the Annoying Devil just existing in the Bible Belt

Just because I'm a stickler for accuracy: this was not "a fan", but a producer for the British prank show Balls of Steel. Producer and his team were brief arrested, but we're released on bail and Cruise didn't press charges.

HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR YEARS. People make jokes about kids not being hanging out at malls anymore? Kids are *banned* from malls. They're banned from parks, they're banned from parking lots, they're kicked off streets.

@BitsHammer Waaaaag at the Walden Galleria

The next codex should should be for unaligned human worlds. I know you can just run imperial guard armies as armies from outside of imperial space but the worlds surviving the horrors of xenos and chaos without becoming theocratic-fascist states should actually have a book

Have you ever noticed that the save icon is a floppy disk, even though they became obsolete twenty years ago? That's called a "skeuomorph" - when something new takes on the appearance of what it replaced. And once you start to look, they're everywhere...

@VarianceHammer @BitsHammer So they are the Worf/ Krillin of 40K

@BitsHammer "Horrifically abused child soldier" is more accurate than monk.

The thing where you can read a teleprompter and have no idea what you’re saying is totally real and I want to understand it neurologically. It feels related to the thing where you read a paragraph of a text book over and over without any comprehension.

Tip from a guy who loves to make presentations: Less information per slide...more slides.

this felt good

@BitsHammer @wrhollingsworth @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy I believe you. Like I say, my reference for the lower is what is specifically in the rule books and short stories from over two decades ago

@wrhollingsworth @BitsHammer @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy You are not wrong but Games Workshop tends to be so crap at anything related to biology that 12 year-old me didn't really question this idea at least from an in universe point of view

@UnofficialMine @BitsHammer @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy Well male organs are almost all external so I don't see what they're making space for.

@BitsHammer @wrhollingsworth @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy Although removing the internal organs that might be associated with the male reproductive system would make for a bigger pain in the ass trying to lubricate a urethra to let urine through than it was worth But given GW's general (lack of) science knowledge I didn't question it

@BitsHammer @wrhollingsworth @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy Specifically the penis I also haven't seen. Published between 98 and 2004 and I haven't reread them since so I could just be misremembering. But I have a recollection of the marines lacking reproductive organs basically to make space...

And I can confirm that Whiskey has figured out how to open fracking doors because he did and he's out again

MY CAT'S HOME! Dumbass jumped out of our bedroom window last night (second/first floor depending on what continent you're counting from) and is now glutting himself with cat food

@BitsHammer @wrhollingsworth @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy True. At the same time if it was the emperor sort of the theorizing without a data set it could at least be an explanation that made sense for why they were only newly converting girls or young women depending on what age a given chapter takes in initiates

@wrhollingsworth @BitsHammer @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy Could work. Depending on which piece of fluff you pick up space marines don't have genitals anyway because all the reproductive organs had to be removed to make space for the new organs but since that's inconsistent that could totally be an explanation for why fem marines are new

@UnofficialMine @BitsHammer @spepporadio @Casual_Heresy Here's an idea (that might have been proposed before, IDK) - what if the Emperor didn't make FSM because he didn't want them breeding as an entirely new species?
