@vancityreynolds.bsky.social Looks like I found the Ryan Reynolds appreciation section at my local Smyths 👍🏻

Sooooo, yeah. Using a glaze to blend is SUPPOSED to be a really slow, barely noticeable process, right...? Right? #hobbypainting #warhammer40k #tabletopgaming

1. Some years back I was taking a cab in Chicago and the taxi driver, discovering I was a writer, complained that all his young son wanted to read was comics. I made the point to him that reading comics was reading, and that his kid was taking pleasure in reading and at his age, that's important.

Everyone say hi to @sarna.net, the ultimate BattleTech wiki 😻

Absolutely true. People like to espouse the idea that 'mental health matters' right up until the moment that it inconveniences them. Then you'll start to see their attitudes change, slowly but surely.

I think it's safe to say my mental health is bad when some Astartes-style hypno-conditioning sounds great. Somebody just rewire my brain so I don't feel anything, cheers 👍🏻

Without downloading any new pics, what's your energy going into 2025?

My 15 year-old has recently taken an interest in my Gaunt's Ghosts books. She's a sensitive soul and gets attached to characters so easily. She's just told me how much she loves Colonel Corbec... #warhammer40k #gauntsghosts

An 11 year old patient brought this in to show me - such a great job. Love chatting Warhammer with my patients and so nice that they brought this in to show me - they were delighted when I said I wanted to share it on my socials so show some love #warhammercommunity #nerdlets

This silly moggy stands on this window sill most days, watching me come home from the school run. This is my house. I do not own a cat. I do, however, belong to next door's cat as does my house... 😆 #cats

Our Bastion modular tile set Kickstarter has entered its final week, and today we pushed through another stretch goal, so now there'll be an urban alternate version of all the tiles.! Check it out here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/her...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok? Signed, a librarian.

Please help Seela if you can - I've in tents in the winter; the snow lies heavy on the tent and soon melts through soaking everything inside, the wet rises through the ground also and then how do you dry your clothes and bedding? You can't. You get ill. It's worse for babies and the elderly...

It's funny because 11th edition 40k will be out before I ever get around to playing a game of tenth

Cyclops finished. Didn't really have a plan going into this one, but I got to try out some new rust and toxic goo paints. #Battletech #AlphaStrike #minipainting
