Been playing Mordheim since May; finally got a promo image for my warband made. These are my little guys I painted! @minipaints.bsky.social. @warhammer40k.bsky.social @warhammerweekly.bsky.social @realgdt.bsky.social
A collection of painted miniatures, ten orcs and one goblin in various poses and carrying a variety of equipment, stands in front of a gallows on a ruined medieval fantasy city game board. In the fashion of a postcard, text reads, "Greetings from Mordheim / The gang's all here!"

A new report found nearly 79% of Iowa voucher recipients were already expected to attend private schools. Private school tuition has risen nearly 50%. Iowa Republicans call it "school choice," but it's really a taxpayer-funded subsidy for private schools while public schools pay.

The security guard outside the Islamic Center of San Diego was reportedly shot twice by the two teenaged attackers and was knocked down, he got up and ran back into the mosque and he is being credited with preventing a worse massacre before he was killed. 😫

I had a dream last night that I met several members of the House of Representatives, and, while the Democrats were sort of normal, boring people, most of the Republicans were parrots of various types that bit and scolded me for not voting for them. What could it mean? What could it possibly mean?!

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

The death toll in Gaza has already been updated to 61,709. The true scale of Israel's atrocities is only just emerging - and officials must face justice for every single life lost. So should those who continued to send weapons, knowing full well they were enabling genocide.
