I.. I think I'm doing Orktober wrong... These are a pair of J7W1 Shinden for playing Crimson Skies with Gaslands rules. And a set of rock pillars for the same, as well as for Titanicus. Both are still WIP. And both jumped the queue over a set of Ork Gargants for #Bloodsong I have sitting primed...

Before they started making ejection seats, Martin Baker experimented with what I can only call the "Yeet Seat"...
Concept drawings for a Martin  Baker Swinging Arm pilot ejection device.   It shows in four steps how the plane's canopy would jettison and then a long arm in the tail of the aircraft would fling the pilot up and over the plane to be able to parachute to safety...

Tried making Kolache today, and aside from a minor panic attack when the dough came out a LOT more sticky and goopy than expected, they are quite nice! @hobbytan.bsky.social

Used my spoons on hobby today, finally got my Warlord Titan primed, along with a force of Eldar Titans to use with the Bloodsong fan supplement. (Two Revenants, a Phantom and a Warlock titan, for those curious.) #AdeptusTitanicus

Screenshot of text from the link in this post: 

While making his show 100 Acts of Minor Dissent, Mark Thomas ran a consultation to find a new meaning for the word 'farage'.  After many entries and suggestions a new definition was decided.

Farage: (noun) the liquid found at the bottom of a bin or waste container.

Usage: "There's a leak in the food waste and I've dripped farage over my slippers."

Kegsbreath saw the information below and made the following conclusions: -Heightened agression is good, get wars done quick. -Night mission and watch shifts will be easier to fill! -oily and bald? High speed, low drag baby! -I'll be the biggest dick in the army! -More red blood cells, (cont...)
Info from an online medical info site:


Quick Answer: What Are the Signs Your Testosterone Is Too High?
Possible warning signs of testosterone that is too high include:

-Increased aggression, irritability, or emotional reactivity
-Poor sleep, waking during the night, or worsening sleep apnea symptoms
-Sudden acne, oily skin, or accelerated hair loss
-Disruptive libido, erectile changes, or testicular shrinkage
-Elevated hematocrit, high blood pressure, or cardiovascular strain
-Anxiety, restlessness, or mood swings that feel out of character

If these symptoms started or worsened after beginning TRT, changing your dose, switching injection frequency, or adding other compounds, it is worth getting your labs reviewed.

It's a gift from the German language:
Post with the text:

The Germans really cooked making "Hobbyless behaviour" and insult. It is both devastating  applicable to a wide range of people and behaviours,  and doesn't resort to swearing.

Man ranting on the Internet about the Superbowl halftime show or something being "woke"? Hobbyless Behaviour. Girls mocking another girl for not looking right? Hobbyless Behaviour. Mindless vandalism? Hobbyless Behaviour. 

It is more powerful than "get a life" or the English "You're Sad" because it gets to the central point of the matter, and that is wonderful. Danke, Dutch.

Hmmm. "Warhammer Skirmish"? Makes me wonder, is this just GW "consolidating the brand" or is this a first hint of them maybe looking at publishing more skirmish games? Either way, while the new minis look cool, the "streamlining" comment and the sparse looking starter set terrain has me worried...

That'd be a toss-up between these two for me:
Box cover or the 2001 Pulp/Alternate History dogfighting game Crimson Skies. It shows a city full of skyscrapers from the sky, with two planes chasing a bright red Brigand type plane, and a Zeppelin crashing into a skyscraper in the background.The box art for the 2007 PC Game Hellgate London. It shows a demonic face and symbol superimposed over a post-apocalyptic London skyline.

Had a shower thought too long for max. Skeet length. Put it in the alt text. It's about the domestication of cats and dogs.
Shower thoughts:
Dogs and Cats were domesticated over food, but in wholly different ways, and it still shows to this day:
Dogs: "Hey, these beings are such successful hunters, they got so much food they're just giving it away. And they can scratch where we can't reach? These guys are AMAZING!"
Cats: "Look at these losers, their territory is overrun with food and they can't even catch the fat little things. Instead they're chewing on plant-stuff. Oh well, their loss is our gain. Let's go help these idiots out."

Image:  a cat and a dog, peacefully side by side on a couch.
