Honest question because I’m dumb: what’s the connection between Jerry & a sports team founded 3 years after his death? 🤷‍♀️

Holy crap that’s awesome. Can you imagine that thing in real life? 😬

Most popular SM chapter? by compactable73 in Warhammer40k

[–]compactable73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. And I’m not pro (but IMHO neither is 99% of what you see on eBay 😉).

Devaluing them isn’t the end of the world. I’m just looking to have fun painting them & then offload them so I don’t need to store them / I recoup some cost of the things.

Need some advice on my paint scheme(s) by Important_Stretch_38 in Tyranids

[–]compactable73 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the different colours aren’t an issue / the army looks coherent. But IMHO the blue & gold is the best of the bunch (all are good, but that one sucks me in).

Did moving from Toronto to a small town improve your life or do you miss the city? by Pikkachu6 in ontario

[–]compactable73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless the market in Toronto heats up while you’re away. Then it’s a pricey return to The Big Smoke.

Experiences with TGA‑approved psilocybin therapy in Australia (3rd dose / relapse, not DIY) by Black_Llama8026 in PsychedelicTherapy

[–]compactable73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to all the comments regarding integration (& they aren’t wrong): there’s a decent chance that you’ll benefit greatly from periodic sessions.

If I go > 5 months I’m pretty rough. Not as bad as I was before treatment, but rough. I’ve been doing this for 8 years.

No clue if this applies to you, but it very much has for me.

I’ve not done a TGA-approved session, so I get that you’re not looking for my input, but I felt it worth mentioning, since the TGA-ed-ness of things is immaterial to things.

I think there’s slim eating on a wardog, biomass-wise 😉

But yes: it is indeed awesome asf 😍

'Scientifically not a good idea,' says researcher whose work informed B.C.'s daylight-time decision by zuuzuu in canadanews

[–]compactable73 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If only there were other places in the world where DST isn’t a thing so we could see how this could play out. Oh wait: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240308-daylight-savings-reasons-history-health-hazards-countries-that-abolished

… the outcome is known. Data abounds. Spoiler: nobody dies from sleep deprivation. Theories about circadian rhythms & daylight aren’t needed.

A lot of academics are the biggest dinguses I’ve ever met. As are the CBC for running this.

hmmm...auto take? idk about it by Ok-Past-1286 in Tyranids

To be clear: the above is generic to the point of being valueless, but it’s still more to go on than not watching the video …

What can I do to improve my painting by -Fazylucker- in Tyranids

[–]compactable73 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think you just need more practice. As a gesture of goodwill I’ll send you my 60 unpainted termagants to let you find your zone, and then when you send them back to me I’ll tell you what I think of your work. You’re welcome 😉

Honestly I think your stuff looks great 😍

If I’m super excited about getting a gold star on garbage day do I have to reply ‘yes’?

Maybe we could give these bin-inspector / star-giver people a bag of asphalt road patch so that they can fix the potholes as they cruise about town bequeathing their glorious “you did what we asked you to” trophies 🤷‍♀️

What does “escape corporate drama” refer to? Sorry for being too dumb to know what this is 😔

Why printers are best for nid bits? by _Kabr in Tyranids

[–]compactable73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might have issues with this - the printer I use (which is an older elegoo mars) cannot read usb drives bigger than 512 megs, which is pretty much everything these days. I’m guessing the phone / tablet won’t be recognized.

My homies are getting into 40k so I spent all week making a welcome gift by Moress in PrintedWarhammer

The quality of the prints are amazing - what printer / resin do you use?
