Further lore-accurate facts:
Gura is 9000 years old in 2025, so clearly doesn't age and tends to not die - in 40k terms, she's a "Perpetual".
Also, she's nearly as old as the Emperor (estimated creation ~8000bce), only about a thousand years between them.
I'm fairly new to Warhammer 40k, and I just learned about Carcharodons literally a few minutes ago. And as I learned that they are a shark legion and that their origin and primarch are not confirmed I made the ultimate joke that shall now become canon in our ttrpg club.
They do indeed have their own primarch. The one that was considered disappeared and erased from history. The 2nd Primarch, the one that Emperor himself has kept a secret from all of his other children in fear that they will turn to heresy if they as much as lay their eyes upon that horrifying creature
The only daughter of the Emperor, the mother of Carcharodons...
Gawr Gura
Emperor has always kept her a secret from the entire Imperium in fear that all of his sons and Imperial citizens will start worshipping her instead of her.
And while other Primarchs were scattered around the galaxy by their mother, Gura has been yeeted into the farthest end of the galaxy by the Emperor himself just because he knew she'd be far more beloved and worshipped than him and couldn't possibly have that
You know, for as much as English lacks a few things that Portuguese takes for granted, like an one word formally agreed on plural for “you” and two different “to be” verbs, one for momentary states of being and one for more permanent ones (like, for example. We can differentiate between being busy for a certain period of time and being a busy person in general just going by the verb), you guys really went off when you decided having different terms for baby cats and baby dogs. Like, kittens and puppies? That’s SO cute and SO right. Those little things ARE kittens and puppies.
I couldn’t find a hot old lady knight for a one shot so I’ve made one.
One day I'll actually play these, rather than just listen to the OST on repeat!
to fill out a questionnaire about asexual tv/media representations, what you think about them, and what they could be doing better. Almost all questions are optional, so you can come and say as little or as much as you'd like!
Please help a fellow ace out, and help me make this research not be just another look at white asexuals...

Please share, even if you don't wanna do the questionnaire, many thanks!
Happy ASAW 2024, here's something about community !
...what is the "sex is just rock climbing" category
It was kind of a joke between me and a friend ("you wouldn't judge someone for having gone rock climbing with a bunch of different people") but honestly the more I thought about it the more I bought into it unironically because:
It is a physical activity done with one or more partners
You should only go rock climbing with people you trust to not let you fall
You should not go rock climbing with someone who is drunk or currently incapable of rational decision-making
Some people get super super super into rock climbing and do not shut up about all the places they have climbed and how many are left on their bucket list and these people are usually men between the ages of 20 and 35 and like it's fine dude I'm glad you're happy but I don't know what most of those mountains even are
While many consider it a fun activity, pressuring someone into climbing when they don't want to (or ignoring their feelings and just dangling them off a cliff,) could cause both psychological and physical trauma
There is no moral value to it whatsoever. Who you have gone rock climbing with (or whether you have rock climbed at all) has no bearing on who you are as a person. Imagine telling someone "it's not that heights make you nauseous, it's just that you haven't found the right person to belay you!" or "you need to save your first time rock climbing for someone special." That would be absurd.
For some people it is a deep and moving personal experience.
historically I have not asked myself "will this aggravate my hip flexor injury" before participating when perhaps I should have 😔
Oh god, this may be why I keep persuading people to get into Good Media and then wondering why they're all three books/games/etc ahead of me suddenly...
"any time is a good time for mid, but quality deserves the perfect environment" really does explain my habits lmao
it's always a good day to complain about English speakers
I was digging around in my shelves for Ork bits, and found my old Imperial Guard Command Squad, from the 8th Necromundan regiment.
I made these around '98-99 - the rest of the army was mostly Van Saar and Orlock gangs I'd picked up cheap second hand, plus some tanks. Had a lot of fun in the City Fight era. I still can't do faces for shit, mind
