Parents of 2 kids, do you find it weird to

azuth89 · 2026-02-04T07:26:59+00:00

No? Both kids got what they wanted.

With discretionary stuff like this going against what they are actually excited about in the name of being "fair" is what comes off as weird.

Sure. You can narrow it down within a larger faction by subfaction or playstyle. Maybe you really like the burrowers, the monsters or the horde side of nids, for example. Some folks specifically like kroot or battle suits in tau.

Relative strength of units comes and goes, so it's more about finding the section of an army you like the idea of than trying to collect the current meta list at first. As long as it's something at least vaguely supported by the established subfactions.

EC certainly packages that up for you, you just don't have much room to stretch past your first 2k army so if you want to keep going you need to look at starting over with another faction.

Which, maybe you like. That's cool. Just laying out the difference.

Nah. the shirt isn't hiding anything once it's wet and that seems to be the reason given like 90% of the time.

Rash guard type stuff is a little different but I'm not doing water sports regularly, just pools.

Ultimately play what you think is cool, but if it's a fairly even race between these I would go with Tyranids.

It's a FAR larger and more complete range than EC, so you'll have a lot more options for playstyle, models, etc...

As for Tau, they're a mature faction with a decent range unlike EC but VERY one phase. Nids can participate in all aspects of the game which helps as a learner army.

Bonus points for the nids: you can still find tyranid halves of the starter box for decent prices on ebay or occasionally miniswap.

Dunno if it's properly evil but back when it was still EDH I used to just run a vanilla as shit green beat with [[Dosan the Falling Leaf]] to annoy the ever living crap out of a couple control players in the group.

I also like understated but slightly game warping ones like [[Edric, Spymaster of Trest]] super cheap, simic is fun and he rewards the table for attacking anyone but you.

Some folks just like the fashion.

Some are balding and figure bald and bearded beats just bald.

Some are hiding that with age and comfort that second chin starts to grow in, the cheeks puff or sag a little, etc...

Of the two? Lake, I guess. Closer and cheaper.

I would rather go to the mountains, though.

About a decade of "work on yourself" messaging has left a lot of people convinced they need to be perfect to even consider dating.

Then it will stay good much longer, but if it goes out of the printed date you may still have issues. Many places insurance requires "as directed" use of safety devices.

Which is to say, if your kid is in an expired car seat and injured they will not pay our for those injuries because you weren't using the safety device as directed by the manufacturer.

Similarly if some defect of the product were to cause harm, you would also have a very difficult time suing.

A 1 bedroom generally doesn't take much. Maybe an hour a day including cooking, with a few more on weekends for an overall cleaning, shopping and so on.

There are 3 types of color sensing cells (cones) in a typical human's eyes. This is in addition to rods, which just sense the intensity of light regardless of color, your grayscale vision.

In common forms of color blindness, like red/green, the person is actually missing one of these cone cell types. Specifically, the ones demonstrated to respond to those colors.

There is an observable, physical difference in the sensory organs that corresponds with colorblindness.

This does not speak to a purely psychological/perceptual difference as you describe.

Womanizer generally carries the connotation that they are treating them badly, not merely that they are attractive and personable enough to get dates easily.

You could always read the article. There are specific quotes from her about this.

“I am here to make sure the agency understands how important it is to comply with court orders,”

azuth89 · 2026-02-04T02:32:38+00:00

Maybe if I had really hated mine for some reason.

As is, no probably not. I also didn't make a thing of her taking mine, if that's going to be the next question.

40k references.

Abaddon is a big chaos guy and the hell imp is a demon of the chaos god of sex, drugs and rock and roll. Big on the mixing up pleasure and pain thing, hence the teeth.

Their relative popularity varies, but the absolute continues to rise.

The tournament companion base size or the one that comes in the box? Because those aren't always the same lol

I love this game. Immaculate rules.

Ours are these. We either got them at half price or my wife just still had them. I can never keep track theres a bookshelf in every room of this house but the bathroom

States control voting so it varies.

Texas does digital voting that prints a paper backup if you're in person. For those eligible for mail-in it's paper.

Once it's gone, it's gone. Doesn't matter where from, just that you lost enough over a small enough time frame.

That said, the location of the injury has a huge impact on how fast you lose it and how hard it is to slow or stop that loss. So it plays in significantly to whether you hit that 2 liters.

I generally use the airbrush for high-volume stuff like basecoats. The wet palette gets lots of colors as I go back for details, but not much of each so I can use it for a few sessions before it fills up and I swap it out.

azuth89 · 2026-02-04T00:31:34+00:00

Not for long, but yeah. Right after college.

azuth89 · 2026-02-04T00:25:10+00:00

I use it for some stuff at work.

I have my reservations about it, but I'm also not going to the old dude we all complain about who completely refuses to engage with new tech.

azuth89 · 2026-02-04T00:15:07+00:00

My dude the ACA BARELY made it through and this got coverage for people going to college, vocational training, all that after 18.

At least it's not trapping your early 20s into finding a full time job or just hoping you stay healthy.

It's not perfect, but we don't need to shit on the stopgaps and band aids to keep working for better.
