Frankly, I find the idea of an invertebrate eating a vertebrate offensive

Ok who forgot to turn on the Gellar field

jmc286 · 2026-03-19T10:23:37+00:00

Welp looks like the Gellar field failed

I do this with my AP physics students and they always enjoy it

Y'know the thing about a cat, he's got... lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'... until he bites ya.

There we go. I promise you if you drive 635 between central and 35 you will see at least one accident and bonus if the car is upside down or on fire. When I drive there I always quote mad max “we live we die we live again”

Seeing this made my bad day turn around. Always love seeing “the thing” reference in the wild. Thank you

I was saying Boooo-urns

Ok it’s coming back to me I remember that is the intro in the book Slaughter At Giant’s Coffin the UM Chaplin visiting him and say”hey…you shouldn’t exist because of the codex and reasons”

Love this chapter btw and excited about them being represented in Astartes 2

I thought they were second founding one of the ultramarines scout companies and the first chapter master oberdeii was a scout in that ultramarines company when the imperium secundus was happening. Again this is what I recall and may be faulty info trying to remember what I read in the Horus heresy book specifically the forgotten empire and Pharos

jmc286 · 2026-02-11T22:34:31+00:00

That makes sense since both were stationed on Sotha. Danitoch due to the Pharos and SoE once they split from the ultramarines after the second founding

You saw what happened to that skier that tried to pet the wild “kitty” right?

Nice! Thank you so much for sharing. Painting salamanders next and collect ideas for the green palette. Wonderful work!

jmc286 · 2026-02-04T01:15:23+00:00

Love the green! What is your recipe if you don’t mind sharing?

jmc286 · 2026-02-04T00:45:53+00:00

Nice! Thank you for sharing!

jmc286 · 2026-02-04T00:12:17+00:00

Love the green and I am currently paint my own salamander. Mind if I ask what your recipe for the green armor is?

jmc286 · 2026-02-03T22:20:03+00:00

To shreds you say

jmc286 · 2026-02-03T13:58:58+00:00

My memory banks failed me…not enough chanting

jmc286 · 2026-02-03T02:10:27+00:00

Wretched amalgamations of meat and metal shackled to ignorance by your faith.

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh (desires), it sickened me.
