while I do find the Racial Draft bit from the chapelle funny, i think it's odd that it's an impossibility in that world for things to be more than two things at once, for racial identities to be mutually exclusive that doesn't make much sense to me

bristol is running a 2 headed giant pauper event, i don't have a partner but I was thinking about what two decks would be good together, my first thought was two burn decks, red and black so they don't tread on each others cards

i got an ad by JTI about why we shouldn't buy black market tobacco but only because it doesn't make them money and will lead to the collapse of small businesses i thought tobacco advertising wasn't allowed but ig it is to protect private ventures

everytime i think about work i kinda feel like Quark in that episode of DS9 where he sells his corpse parts to brunt and asks Garak to assassinate him i.e. i feel like i've sold something impossible and want to be hit by a bus so i don't have to deal with it anymore

whenever my mother notices a problem i have she keeps telling me solutions but not in a way that's helpful to me, i've told her but she keeps telling me how i should've fixed something and it just makes me feel worse about the problem and makes me not want to be around at all

some song parodies have endured longer than the original, at least to me, like Brand New Combine Harvester, I've never heard the original referenced but maybe that's just because I live in somerset

has anyone ever worked out what the aircraft in Bee Movie is, I know the movie is ridiculous and terrible but also I must know it's a six-abreast narrow-body aircraft with 4 turbojet/fan engine, also it's apparently made of cardboard as it can be lifted by a swarm of bees

I finished my Shrine Anchorite, I'll make alternate gun arms and stuff later, but the main thing is done. #trenchcrusade #miniature

A shrine anchorite made from a venerable dreadnought, it is painted to resemble weathered steel with gold trim. It is covered in several pieces of eastern orthodox Christian iconography including crosses and a small painting of the Theotokos. It has a large blood splattered mace and a double barrelled cannon

being at home is nice but it's also so suffocating, i don't like having to tell peopel where i'm going and not having people around all the time, but also i can leech off food and resources, i'm basically a glorified tick at this point in time

The Bonebreaker Mace of my first Shrine Anchorite for my St. Methodius warband, I made it from a venerable dreadnought #trenchcrusade #miniaturepainting

The fist arm of a venerable dreadnought, it is a speckled grey metal colour, weathered to look grimy, affixed to the shoulder is an icon with a christogram, it also has a shield with a cross and a cloth banner.
The fist is covered in red to show it has been used to crush its enemies

I also painted some tokens for MTG, they're quite crude but I quite like some of them.

5/3 Elemental painted as a black shape with green eyes, nose and mouth, it has red pupils

5/3 elemental with white eyes and claws, it is an amorphous green blob

A copy token painted as a pale arm emerging from a pale blue rectangle

A treasure token made out of a cryogonal, it has the tang poem Winter Solstice by Bai Juyi written beneath it, the penmanship is poor and in some areas it has scraped away the paint that covers the original text of the card

I kitbashed a janissary out of a orc infantry and viking kit, I'm pretty pleased although the scale is a bit smaller so they're a bit puny, they have a bört tho so I think they work well

A diminutive janissary with a maxim type machine gun stands next to his larger brother in arms

all the ads that are like "my job is easier because I use AI tool number b" just feel like they want to increase the rate you do busywork so you can work more so you don't ever escape this stupid business hole
