Interests include politics, sports, and painting Warhammer 40k models. Oh, and it'd be great if we could do something about income inequality and the impending fascism. Yeah...
Why focus on that when there's actual substance to be found?
Now check out the wealth of governments over the same period, then listen to @garyseconomics.bsky.social until you realize we need a wealth tax.
Just had an evening of self care: got high...and listened to The Mars Volta "Miranda That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" and all of "Cassandra Gemini" on vinyl. Yeah. I'm bragging.
And for an even lesser known choice: I Mother Earth's "Dig"
A couple great new albums came out recently. Chevelle's "Bright as Blasphemy" and Deftone's "Private Music" Check them out!
If I'm being honest with myself, this book if what I think of when D&D is brought up, and while it's obviously not the best fantasy art I've ever seen, it is one of my favorites.
Backwards looking head: "He was very excited to put me together and get me painted" Forwards looking head: "Yeah, well...he's never going to finish the highlights. This is as good as we get."
This chart exists and everyone thinks things are going fine (things are far worse now, btw) Graphs, if anything, are used to hand wave away real on-the-ground pain. Trump's firing of the stat nerds is just getting people to where they already should have been: listen to people, not charts.
What perfect album came out when you were 16? (Having a hard time picking between these 2, so...)
Still need to do some final highlights on face and feathers, but pretty much done #paintingwarhammer
