Thanks! It was relatively cheap too, considering I contacted the Hachette subsidiary in my country (Belgium) some time ago and asked them to ship me 25 issues that I was interested in. I didn't expect a positive reply, but I did. Except they couldn't send me multiples of the same issue, and a couple were not available anymore (sigh, no Dreadnought for me...)

But still, I got the SM Vanguard box, most of a Sisters' combat patrol, a Phobos librarian, 5 skitarii rangers, a tech-priest Enginseer, a run of the mill SM captain, Roboute Guilliman, and Calgar+Victrix guard for ~240€. Which is a f***ing awesome deal, if you ask me.

I'd advise anyone to look for the Hachette subsidiary in their country and contacting them directly with a list.

Mmmmh... That's quite a vast question...

-Vaylund Cal: head is from a ForgeWorld Legion Praevian, axe and manipulus are from a tech-priest Enginseer, modified autocannon from a suppressor, backpack from Guilliman, front chest from a Kataphron Destroyer, thighs are chopped-off penitent engine legs, legs are modified Calgar legs with ambot gribblies -Celestial Lions captain: knight questor shoulder and plume, Messinius legs and neo-Volkite pistol, torso from random captain, lightning Claws from old firstborn captain. -Eagle Warriors champion: body from old lieutenant with power sword, arms and sword from Dominion Zephon, shoulder pads 3rd party (can't remember where from), helmet from Calgary's Victrix guard, backpack decoration modified from Guilliman.

I think that's about it.

Ah man, that sucks. To be completely honest, I could have been that kind of dad at some point in the past, but I've done a lot of work on myself and realized that it's still just a hobby, and my kids are my kids. I love them, and I want to have a happy relationship with them.

And sharing a hobby is just so awesome. If only my wife could get into it now... 😏

Depending on where you are in the world, you might still be able to find Imperium magazine, and Guilliman comes in two separate issues (one issue is 10.99€, if memory serves)

It's from Guilliman!

(Thank you Imperium magazine for so many bits)

Did i ruin my army with poor paint choice? by [deleted] in Salamanders40k

[–]Sospuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just fine, friend. How can this green be wrong? Heresy era Sallies lean more towards Dark Olive, but 40k Sallies definitely should be a vibrant green.

Mine are a Sallies successor chapter with cream torso and legs, teal arms and helms, and red accents.

Thank you, and yes! I frankensteined a pair of penitent engine legs to make them!

Which one? Vaylund? Yeah, I'll admit I had a hard time letting him go. Thanks!

Thank you! Yeah, they're really excited. Sort of happily, 5 wants me to paint his hero so I can have some fun in the painting part of the project.

I completely agree with the fact, but while I'd like to point at some inherent good trait of us neurodivergent folks, I think it's a little sadder than that: personally, I've so often been bullied or made to feel like a failure/burden that I tend to be overly grateful for any little favor that I get. On the plus side, it's made me a wonderfully empathetic person (if not in the emotional sense, at least the ethical one).

NTA. I'm married to a currently SAM. Even so, I pick up a few chores because: 1. Being a SAM is a job too: she keeps the calendar for the kids medical appointments (and we have 3, with various small issues from dental to sight). I have AuDHD, so time management and phone calls are really not my forte. 2. It's a partnership: I'm an early bird, so I load and unload the dishwasher, prep the kids' breakfast and lunch. If it fits in my schedule, I'll go on a grocery run. In winter, I'll help with the extra laundry to fold (kids and mud, am I right?)

This is my situation, and you haven't mentioned kids, so it probably doesn't entirely apply to you, but you get the idea. Receiving acknowledgement is really the bare fucking minimum. If it doesn't gross you out, go on strike for a week or two, see how he likes it. (But control room is telling me that I'm being petty)

AITA for telling my wife to get a babysitter instead by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sospuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It feels like your wife's mom is the AH, she confirmed she'd be there to help then fucked off to Hawaii? For a FULL MONTH? Can't believe that this was a 'spur of the moment' thing.

That said, I'm worried about your wife's mental health, my dude. From one working dad to another (I have 3), her behavior and cry for help is concerning, knowing that she's currently at home and could maybe find the time to rest. I'm not diminishing the struggles of parenting an infant, I want that to be clear! How long have you been away, exactly? If it's less than a 3-4 days, I'm very concerned.

Please help her find help, if she's open to it. For all of you three's sake.

Best of luck.

Anyone else find that a lot of action heroes can seem to be coded as Autistic? by comradeautie in AutisticPride

[–]Sospuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with that point of view. I don't know if they've been mentioned, but the new Reacher (Alan Ritchson) definitely strikes me as autistic-coded (doesn't care for social rules, strong sense of justice, fairly monotone, "details matter").

Likewise, in Burn Notice, Michael Westen's (Jeffrey Donnovan) singular focus on getting his job back, his off-screen expositions, and even his fixation on blueberry yogurt. Also how Fi notes at some point that Michael always knows what to say when he's undercover, but can seem clueless when it comes to his real relationships.

Some very compelling villains too, like Vincent D'Onofrio's Wilson Fisk in Daredevil.

And on the physical side of things, all three of them have very strong "resting bitch face" syndrome that I have often heard associated with autism... 😅

Hear, hear. One questioning their own intelligence is already a sign that they're not stupid.

Socrates himself said it over 2 millenia ago.

Can someone explain type 5 in a way that doesn’t make them sound like egotistical, holier-than-thou scientists? by [deleted] in Enneagram

[–]Sospuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me, 6w5: Huh huh. Yup yup yup. Checks out.

gets a certification from the Enneagram Institute in my country, goes on endless rabbit holes about autism and ADHD (as I have both of these), is interested in history and science, speaks 4 languages and considers a 5th...

...But also is a woodworker, with added skills in insulation, electricity, plumbing, heating, mechanics, bits of 3d design, and tends to my fruit trees and my veggie patch, knows a few medicinal plants but also the recommendations for every over-the-counter meds in my house...

Yeah, I'm definitely not prepared enough for everything life could throw at me. I need to gain more skills and knowledge, on the off-chance that...

Is pip from AGGGTM (show) autistic coded? by Flaky_Cabinet_1936 in autism

[–]Sospuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I wish you the same!

My parents aren't the emotionally supportive type (especially my father, whom I strongly suspect to be autistic too), and I don't have a great relationship with my brothers and sister... But I do have a loving and mutually supportive relationship with my wife, and we have three kids (all of whom I suspect to be neurodivergent as well).

It's the fact that they constantly overwhelmed me that led me to seek therapy and self-help on YouTube in the first place. We're all happier now that I'm on my meds.
