there are characters for whom “poor little meow meow” doesn’t quite cut it. To me he’s like a traumatized pit bull mix with a bite history and I’m the white girl with a savior complex trying to stop them from putting him down

Lyrics from "Hold them down" from the Epic musical,

I love Judas and Jesus from th,e Bible

Thank you for such a wonderful show!!

I appreciate everyone who turned up to say hi. In the future, I will try to have more gallery shows and attend conventions to talk to people. You all mean so much to me. ❤️

I dont care if you hate Leman on your own blog BUT if you hate him on my posts I will warn you once. And after that the punishment is I block you for 4 weeks. You get to go in the SHAME CORNER and wear the PAPER HAT OF STUPID. I'm serious babes

I had to go and delete it myself this morning.

not to be a killjoy but it's still crazy to me that it's considered mean to be like "maybe you should read / play / watch the source material before creating fanworks and diving into the fandom" bc every time i see somebody going "i havent played disco elysium or know anything about it tbh but uwu here's harry and kim kissing" idk maybe you should engage with it. maybe you should play the anti-capitalist surrealist game where you investigate the murder of a mercenary who led the gang rape of a foreign girl and process that for a bit? and then you can do cutesy mlm or whatever idc. but like at the absolute bare minimum you should understand what the source material involves otherwise we get the phenomenon of people joining a dragon age server and wanting content warnings for like, mage racism. like it's fine to ship and transform the genre into whatever but if you arent comfortable with discussions of the actual source content itself then maybe the fandom isnt for you and a different one is. peace and love.

I always appreciate how thorough Sandy Mitchell is with his worldbuilding. With a lot of what he writes he's clearly having a bit of fun, the name of the planet is Nusquam Fundamentibus, the literal translation is "the ass end of nowhere" and it is indeed located in the metaphorical ass end of nowhere of the imperium, but he's clearly put thought into how the planet works & how that influences what's going in.

Like, Nusquam Fundamentibus is matriarchal. Therefore women make the decisions for the family. The planetary govenor is a woman. The newly formed Nusquam 1st get a female commissar. Colonel Kasteen is heavily favored & respected compared to her male equals. It's so consistent & flavors the interactions & I see people who write "serious" sci fi make only a fraction of the effort into actual consistent worldbuilding on a daily basis.

Hell I keep thinking of stuff like Dragon Age: Origins, where the Jesus parallel is a woman, the pope is a woman & it's supposed to be "equal between the sexes" & yet so much of the dialogue if you're playing a female character is "omg a woman? Doing things? What the fuck?"

And yet, here in a dark comedy wh40k book with a one off setting with a joke name is a clearly fully realised matriarchal society that we only get to glimpse, yet colors every interaction in the book. It's wild.
