Pay Colonel Bosch's Mech Hanger Tap to finalize your purchase. No PayPal account? No worries.

I let this go for a couple of days, but I'm still behind on rent. $375 would just let me squeak by this month. If you can help, it'd be hugely appreciated. If not, please share. Thank you!

The Sharp Fall of Ben Shapiro
YouTube video by JosΓ© The Sharp Fall of Ben Shapiro

This nasally little shit has ruined at least half a dozen relationships I've previously had with friends and family who started listening to his Bibi knob-slobber podcast on the reg.

Whatever bad things happen to Ben Shapiro, it's not bad enough.

Aight you got me. I had a fanboy moment the second I saw Aidan's last stand in his Timberwolf.

you’d think with the rapist-in-chief making cruelty against trans people not just national policy but an outright party virtue we wouldn’t be spending time on this sort of shit and just believe trans women when we say our lives suck rn, but alas

There is a certain contingent of battletech dorks that needs a good ass kicking and a sunnier outlook for sure.

Once again Piranha Games shows why they are such amazing custodians of the Mechwarrior series with MW5: Clans. Us fans cannot express our appreciation enough for the heart, dedication and respect they show towards Battletech - thanks to all the hard-working folks at PGI who made this game possible!

They both kinda give "60s Godzilla guy-in-rubber-suit" vibes.

The line art of the Kodiak from Technical Readout 3058. The head is a bit goofy and the geometry is weird, but it's still clearly a bulky machine.

Ral Partha's old Kodiak miniature. It has a robot teddy bear's head, its proportions are all over the place, and it's flapping its arms like it's trying to keep its balance while ice skating.

On the left is the original art, on the left is the dreadful Ral Partha version (painted by CSO's Psycho).

Mech Advent 2025 Day 6: Kodiak! This is one of Catalyst's punch-up sculpts. Loose's original artwork was actually quite good, but the Ral Partha miniature was always a disappointment. This version looks like a terrifying close-combat machine. #BattleTech #MechAdvent2025

That way, when the big guys start pounding the crap out of each other it's more than just flashy special effects, it's real and and it has meaning and a sense of threat and purpose.

I'm giving this far too much thought. Or maybe not enough.

I also think a BattleTech show would work, but I'd come at it from a different method: an anthology series. Maybe even both at once; a "Game of Thrones" about the Successor Lords (and, eventually, Clan Khans) and a "Love, Death, and Robots" about the smaller stories.

The entire economy is rotten with fake money, billionaires inventing sums to trade to each other.

LOL, Newegg just sent me an ad for deals on RAM. Let's see these "deals:"

1. 16 GB (2x8) - $190
2. 64 GB (2x32) - $690
3. 32 GB (2x16) - $410
4. Same as above, different SKU
5. 64 GB (2x32) - $720
6. 128 GB (2x64) - an eye-watering $1270.

What bargains. Reminder: I paid $130 for 64GB in February.

It's seriously one of those things that marked Halo's move from "genre definer" to "just another franchise." Serious men in suits took over and flattened it into flavorless mush.

I love the huge canvas of the King Crab's carapace. If you don't paint a big mural on it, then you're probably doing it wrong.

on the flip side the trans woman crashing out is that girl who wanted to tattoo her entire body blue and had to be told it wouldn't work by like half a dozen artists, so it's not surprising she worded this in the dumbest way possible and then doubled down on it
