I’ve been meaning to play some with local friends but I really don’t fw the idea of the tournament scene. I’ve been very slowly collecting since around 2019 with the genestealers and managed to get a small army together, but I’m probably just going to play kill team with friends since it has a much lower barrier to entry for everyone involved
I thought the Gue’vesa were restricted to infantry roles - TIL there’s crisis suits modified for human pilots and that’s sick as fuck

Can you imagine living in the world they have in their heads, where they think it was 
boycotts over DEI that caused these companies to autocannibalize instead of the natural tendency of capital to strip the copper from the walls
Throw some Aeneas into it, if you really want to criticize the heroic image of Odysseus yknow? You can canonically have him basically following after the path of the Odyssey shaking his head at the audience in disapproval going “Man this Odysseus guy was kind of a jerk huh? Look at how little he cared about the men under his command.”
I can’t take the mfs who say taking inspiration from historical armor would have been boring compared to this tired costume design. Total War Troy did a great job taking inspiration from examples like the Dendra Panoply or ancient cloth armor and stylizing it a bit for that fantastic element. There’s a lot of variety in its heroes like Agamemnon, Odysseus, Achilles, Menelaus - there’s color, interesting shapes in the armor and clothing.
If you’re gonna tell me it’s a mythic story and it doesn’t have to be accurate, then why not make it both historically inspired and larger than life? And not this desaturated shit
A recent video from Iranian ethnomusicologist Farya Faraji on this Odyssey really helped me put a finger on what I find annoying about all the discourse surrounding the movie. There’s this performative-feeling need among liberal-progressives to defend a lot of mediocre aspects about it because the chuds called it woke; statements I’ve seen repeated like “who cares if it’s ‘historically accurate’, it’s a myth” or “who cares if it’s shot in mediterranean locations, it’s the creator’s vision of a fantastical story”, “the character designs are heroic fantasy” etc. etc.
And I agree with the take from his video - it’s a huge waste of what could be a really cool and incredibly rare depiction of ancient mediterranean culture that isn’t just whitewashed through the lens of the RETVRN white statue post-roman revisionism. The potential depiction of regional and historic peoples, clothing, music, armor, weapons, environments, even the color saturation, would be so different to what you see in mainstream film and it’s such a loss to go with these boring costumes, grey environments, typical “western” styling.
and ppl (whites) here on hexbear tried to tell me I actually wasn’t seeing “clanker” used against black people as a “funny” stand-in for slurs
“it’s just a star wars thing”, “it’s just used against AI bros” 
I feel like people are underestimating the goblin man. Definitely has at least two knives
Exactly what I was thinking
Feel like it’s a no win situation. Gave a couple times to this account when they were claiming imminent death from hypoglycemia - at least enough for a couple meals and to get out of immediate danger. I got absolutely blown up over the next couple days with repeated “i’m going to die of hypoglycemia, please give more” messages. Felt pretty suspicious, sad to see it’s been a recurring problem
I don’t know how you can prevent scams without leveling unnecessary scrutiny at people who really benefit from mutual aid.

Despite what the liberal media wants you to believe, yes, whales are fish
Technically, phylogenetically speaking, all mammals (including humans), “reptiles” (not real), “birds” (dinosaurs), and all tetrapods in general, are also fish - which itself is a made up paraphyletic group 
Love Princess Weekes, she’s great
They don’t believe in anything they say, of course, but just to take the bait
“Little hats”? Look at the bigass crowns on the prophets! And who are the extremely amerikkka-coded humans in this analogy anyway, if the sangheili are the proud white warriors?
