Text tong to fit - it's a list of subreddit memberships for each of the 40k factions. Here's a sample... r/AdeptusCustodes: gundam (19.71), airforce (19.20), daytrading (16.56), sandersforpresident (9.82), centrist (6.93). Conclusion: Ex-military guys with schizophrenic politics. r/AdeptusMechanicus: pathfinder_rpg (14.05), adhdmeme (7.27), dankleft (6.07), theowlhouse (5.88), kerbalspaceprogram (5.39). Conclusion: Current stereotypes are pretty much correct. r/BloodAngels: preppers (15.98), airforce (15.74), menslib (9.04), asktrp (9.01), asktrumpsupporters (8.45). Conclusion: Black Templars got nothing on these guys.

Statistically Backed Stereotypes for Each 40k Faction. Astounding. Motion for Deathwatch to be renamed to Hotwifewatch.

Awesome. Are you running a club, or a kids/friends game?

Large Lancer Tactics poster mounted on cardboard with art supplies scattered around.

Arts & crafts night to make signage for QGCON this weekend!

Overheard on campus:
"For example in the hobbit book - uh, do you mind spoilers?"
"Oh, well I've seen the movie, so..."

Might've been date? Regardless, a mighty nerdsplaining was surely about to ensue.

"The outline shader does whats on the tin. The cel-shader turns gradient shading into step based shading. They are typically both post process shaders."

I'll post other info if I get it, or contact info for people that are interested in discussing.

From a Boston-area indie game dev slack I'm on:

"I don't know the Godot particular workflow, but these trees are essentially a blob shaped mesh for the foliage which has a outline shader and a cel-shading shader applied."

Robert Jackon Bennett's writing is 🤌🤌🤌. The Tainted Cup is brilliant, and I even more love his Founders trilogy.

Excited for Silksong on Sept 4th? well, we have some news, Tiny Mass Games Season 11 drops Sept 4th!

Dear Team Cherry@teamcherry.bsky.social, sorry to rain on your parade.

A pika sits on a mossy rock.

Tighter crop of the same pika, focusing on its head.

An even tighter crop, focusing more on the pika's eye.

An extremely tight crop of the pika's eye, emphasizing their reflection of an early morning mountain scene.

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?"

Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

I have a fresh idea for a vampire story. In this story, the vampires are a metaphor for undead monsters who want to drink your blood.

PICO-8 Fantasy Console PICO-8 is a fantasy console for making, sharing and playing tiny games and other computer programs.

In a couple weeks, going to take my two oldest to a nearby barcade for a game dev presentation on the PICO-8, which I'd never heard of. Pretty psyched. First game dev meetup I'll have gone to in years. PICO-8 looks like a great time.

My photo shows a hemispherical red pottery bowl with supports in the shape of a pair of human feet on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Handmade from red Nile clay, it is slipped and polished to give a light surface sheen. The front of the bowl tips slightly forward as if offering its contents. Dimensions: diameter 13.2 cm x width 13.7 cm x depth 9.8 cm.

An ancient handmade bowl with human feet to bring a smile to your face!

Ah, and I'm following Seven Part Pact pretty closely now.

Wait what sorry Black Company RPG? By Delta Green folks? Oh, THAT is exciting, thank you!

I'm still excited (13 sessions in) about the Godbound campaign I'm running. The OSR-ness makes it all lightweight, and my 25-year-friend players are doing amazing character exploration.

Also getting to finally play Lancer soon, and looking much forward to my copy of Invisible Sun some month.

One of my all-time favorite things. I happily bought all the Sick Elephant stuff I could from a Kickstarter of yours a bit back.

The brainbox behind Valve's Steam Labs says the number of Steam releases featuring GenAI in 2025 is 1 in 5, with 7% of all games on there now incorporating it: 'We’ve octupled last year’s figure' But there's still "a vocal anti-AI sentiment among artists and gamers who simply won’t buy games with this stuff in."

I'm now either a boffin or a brainbox. Either way, PC Gamer picked up my analysis of GenAI disclosures on Steam: www.pcgamer.com/software/ai/...

why did this make me laugh

Ahhh, shit.
