I Barely Write, But When I Do AI Is Nowhere To Be Found.

Silly, bots are.

If you ever meet someone on the internet claiming they're from the USA, watch out because they're most likely an AI bot. nobody in the US can afford an internet connection (because they're so poor) and even if they could their schools are so underfunded they couldn't even know how to use the internet

I probably blocked most of the people this is relevant to, but a transphobe cannot be an ally to GNC people.

An ally is an ally to people who might be. They do not withold support until a peer-reviewed study has proven that they are, and they do not create an environment that prevents someone from discovering they are not.

Being GNC is not a pipeline to being trans. Nevertheless, there are quite a few trans people who start of GNC, before discovering it's not just how they want to present. An ally lets someone discover which one they are on their own terms. They do not say "you are trans, you're just in denial". They do not say "you aren't trans, that's mental illness".

Nukes aren't Dark Age tech, anyone with a decent enough understanding of physics and uranium (or plutonium) could make one.

One amusing constant inconsistency in Warhammer literature is this.

The nuke.

From the dark age if tech, the blast radius of a nuke varies from authour to authour.

I have seen them damn a world to nuclear winter.

I have seen just one level a hive city.

I have also seen just one gut an Imperial fleet.

No one can figure out how powerful of they are....

Also, for a bit of dark age tech that no one can replicate.... There is a lot of nukes out there, like a lot, I thought dark age tech was meant to be insanely rare?

Treat your fanartists well because there are certain pieces of media that many artists would love to get into but the fandom alone scares us off and as a result you get nothing

I need to look into this concept.

Prompt: Titus wistfully tells Mira he wishes they could be honour-brothers.

I'm intrigued. I don't think I've heard of this concept before? What do you mean?

His name is Squinglus Dinglus, and he is an honorable battle-brother of the Ultrasmurfs Space Marine Chapter

NEVER get into anything thats heavy on color symbolism bro . for months you will not be able to look at the color blue without instantly thinking of Squingle Dinglus

Killing Ferrus literally drives him to suicide and is the tipping point that makes him fall.

Whenever he's sober, he is haunted by shame for what he did.

So this is a little design exercise I did with my brother that I found fun and would love to hear warhammer fans thoughts:

GW decides every armies getting 2 new kits next year.

They say they aren't updating any, all of these kits are going to be entirely new per army, not models we've ever seen before (so you can't say necron pariah or an updated nightbringer, we've seen those)

What would you want them to add? To your or other armies.

There is a good chance that the skeleton in that picture is actually dead. The Imperium worships the "human form", and the skeleton is the most bare-bones representation of that form, hence why you see skeletons on a whole lot of shit in 40k (relic storm shields, for example). You can see another example of this where some Necrons were analyzing an Aquilla that was on a planet they conquered, and they found bone fragments mixed in with the metal (they thought they were impurities).

Some more fun 40k facts for Rogue Trader mutuals!

The average human lifespan in Warhammer 40k is roughly the same as it is right now. However, the wealthy people, those who are well-connected, and important/high ranking military officers have access to rejuvenation technology and augmentations that massively extend a person's life. The wealthiest people can live for centuries. As a Rogue Trader, your character will be 100% pressured to undergo these treatments for the stability of the region. Theodora is well over 300 years old at the start of the game.

The first Rogue Traders, those who were personally granted warrants of trade by the Emperor himself, were actually people he did not want around. They were people too wealthy/popular/inconvenient to kill, but people he did not want close to him as he built the foundations of the Imperium. For him, this was a win-win situation. If they did what they were told, they would go into unknown corners of the galaxy and bring them into the Emperor's fold. Or they died trying. Worst case scenario, they got corrupted (or at least power-hungry) and turned on the Emperor while in deep space, which game him perfect justification to kill them.

There have been other warrants of trade signed by Primarchs and other extremely important people for more practical reasons. But the original warrants signed by the Emperor were, as many things concerning the Emperor, kind of a shitty thing to do.

A lot of 40k's lore borrows heavily (steals) from Dune. Including a total ban on artificial intelligence and machines that do any complicated calculations. (it's not just illegal, it's heretical) Cogitators look like computers as we understand them, but their actual processors are often human brains. Servitors who have had their bodies mutilated even more than usual, their brain functions brute-forced programmed to do nothing but function as a computer.

Remember this skeleton on the main menu screen? That's a person, not a spooky decoration. (the Imperium is SUPER evil)

That being said, the Adeptus Mechanicus totally break this rule all the time.

But this rule isn't just because the Imperium is evil. Daemons can, and have, possessed machines of all kinds to cause countless deaths across history. Part of the reason all technology and maintenance is so heavily ritualized is because it HAS to be, in order to prevent demonic infestation. It's not just because everyone in 40k is completely ignorant of how things work.
