I post about a new cult term for rich preppers who seek to accelerate the "Event" or final crisis. NOT rapture-dopes, some are tech zillionaires who think a collapse -followed by their wise rulership- is for the greater good. An ingrate masturba-fantasy.

6) do not paint when you don't feel like it. That's work, not hobby

7) don't compare your work to others' work. Compare it to your own earlier work

8) take pictures of wash, paint, ink, glue etc spills

9) don't drink paint water of too high toxicity

10) don't clean brushes in beverages too often

I've been using one flavour or another of UNIX (including Linux) for 35 years and I still have this problem. (Not aided because the order of operands for ln and ln -s are mirrored: it's as infuriating as the meaning of || and && in csh compared to sh/bash, except csh is really of historic interest rather than in day to day use these days.)

Here's my latest #terrain video - where I make some modular river tiles for #dnd / #warhammer / #pathfinder etc.

They're made from paper and card - and the 'textures' come with and without the grid (depending on your preference).

Hope you like it :)

My favorite James White novel... so far... The Dream Millennium (1974)

Smoke and heat billowed from the crashed spaceship as Adam laid the alien he’d saved down.

They cough, then whisper to Adam. “You’re brave… here, take this.”

“Is it, a Green Lantern ring?”

They blink perplexed. “No. It’s a medkit. Help me out here, dumbass!”

I've mirrored the contents of the Mod Archive at TEXTFILES.COM. The original is up, but I thought it'd be nice to have a mirror. This is many, many, many different tracker music examples, available for all and the work of thousands of open-minded musicians.

My sister, who is a teacher, just discovered that a statement of opinion from a one Dr Henry Valdez, a professor at Miskatonic University, is present in the teaching materials that third-party content writers provided to her and all her other co-workers. It's presented as a real place, with real students.

She discovered it after a student of hers cited the source in an assignment. None of her co-teachers or her principal knew it was there, or even what it is.

'Eavy Contrast is BACK and what a come back! Check how I painted the amazing new Striking Scorpions:

As always only using Contrast Paints plus highlights, went for a slightly more Oldschool vibe for the scheme.

Imma whore up some attention from the #warhammer #bloodbowl #miniaturepainting crew.. very pleased with this Yhetee. Some #slapchop and some traditional methods.

Finished up my Zorn palette dwarf! It's definitely a challenging palette to only use yellow ochre, red, black and white, but I think it came out pretty decent for a first try!
