Fun fact, it's ok to not be perfect at things you like doing. Its ok to make mistakes, or to be content with your current abilities. Internet comments are often "you dont know what you're doing" and "man this sucks" but it's OKAY. You don't have to optimise and min max things you like doing.

I believe it's mentioned in one of the votann codexes that the hearthguard exo-armour can trace its designed lineage back to the saturnine armour. So it shouldn't be that surprising that they share a similar vibe :)

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

Something I shared on Facebook, the only place I've personally seen people justifying Trump's and RFK's Tylenol claims, and I felt compelled to say something. Figured I'd share here as well 💙
I don’t usually share about my mental health, but in light of some recent White House comments about autism, I feel like this is something personal I'd like to talk about.
In my twenties, I went through addiction and recovery. Since then I’ve spent years trying to understand myself better. I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD and OCD, and after years of therapy, my therapist has told me he has “zero doubt” I’m on the spectrum, even though I’ve never gone through the full formal diagnostic process.
Whether or not I’d check every box doesn’t matter to me. What matters is that I relate deeply to much of the autistic experience, and learning about it has helped me find healthier ways to cope and communicate. That said, for many people who do experience enough distress or impairment, having a formal diagnosis can make a huge difference in getting the support and accommodations they need.
I’ve also seen firsthand how autism is overlooked, misunderstood, and stigmatized. Those misunderstandings make life harder than it needs to be. Autism isn’t a flaw to be fixed—it’s a variation, like being left-handed in a right-handed world. The world wasn’t designed with autistic people in mind, but that doesn’t make them broken—it just means things take some adapting.
That’s why it’s so harmful to see people with serious influence like Trump and RFK Jr. pushing the false claim that Tylenol during pregnancy causes autism. There is no scientific evidence for this. Worse, it unfairly places blame on expectant mothers while ignoring real and complex factors involved, like genetics. All it does is reinforce stigma against autistic people, people who deserve understanding and respect, not fear-mongering.

I've had a lovely week off filled with hobbying and quality time with my girlfriend, which has felt like such a long time in the best way. Back to work tomorrow and back to something like a routine! Here are some of the Sons of Horus I painted up in anticipation for 3rd edition. #warhammercommunity

This was a brilliant day - Sisters of Eldar organised a Women in Warhammer meet up at Warhammer World and it was super friendly, lots going on and just NICE. My younger self was extra happy too.
bunch of wicked cool women, non binary folk and some fellas in front of the Rhino tank at warhammer world, and the space marine guy. I'm by the left leg of the space marine guy. People at the front are holding up a trans flag which is wicked too.

In an attempt to distract myself from the pain of being a trans person in the UK at the moment, I cracked on with my Votann this weekend. Painted up the Yaegirs kill team and the Hearthguard who will soon accompany my Kahl #warhammercommunity

On abit of a whim I've decided to start painting up my old Leagues of Votann army box, which has gone unfinished since I managed to nab one quite some time ago. They're a nice change of pace from the detail heavy marines and orks. And any excuse to pain orange is a good one! #warhammercommunity
A handful of Hearthkyn Warriors I'm various stages of being painted. They wear the bright orange of the Trans-Hyperion Alliance.

Looking to sell my Istvaan-inspired World Eaters army so took some pictures of them. Very happy with the paint job (especially on the Leviathan) but I don’t have the room for three Heresy armies. (If anyone is based in London, I’m willing to do a great deal on the army. I hate posting models!)

The rest of this squad is done and I've taken the opportunity to paint up an abandoned plasma support squad as Sons of Horus too, and the difference in speed because of the lack of trim on mk6's is bonkers. After one session I've nearly finished them!! #warhammercommunity
