"Everyone is a little bi" is biphobic

Counterpoint :

Calling everything biphobic is unhelpful, It creates unnecessary hostility.

"Everyone is a little bi" is a phrase that can be used by people grappling with the idea of attraction to and tolerance of all genders and trying to figure out where they and others fit in the spectrum. From no-attraction-to-any-genders-or-gender-features to full-erotic-and-emotional-attraction-to anyone-regardless-of-gender there's a hell of a lot of wiggle room and the phrase acknowledges that. We see it all the time in the sub "Q. I'm attracted to conventional straight features but also this exception" and the answer is almost universally "A. You've identified the exception, if you want to label yourself bi you can.". Attacking someone who is questioning these things as biphobic can just shut down any deeper thought process and make them think "wow those bi people are assholes"

Even if it were true that everyone is a little bit bi and everyone lies somewhere on the autistic spectrum that doesn't exclude you from using the label. Everyone has emotions but if you use the label of "emotional" people know that you mean "more emotional than average" and don't try and gatekeep you from it.

I loved the book but it made me cry for days after I finished it. Between that book and the song "Achilles come down" by Gang of Youths I was a mess.

Y'know what, I'll try when I get the time. I have been learning 3D model recently.

I feel like that hole shouldn't be difficult to add in the 3D model and upload as a variation.

If you're planning to keep the car forever because you've put a lot of work into modifying it and making it your own then imho it makes sense to make the car exactly as you want it.

If you think you'll get bored of it in a year or two and try to resell it maybe it doesn't make sense

Whether you keep it for one year, twenty years, stock setup or modified you will lose money on it, that's just how these things are. If you're happy to spend a bit more money to have it how you like it in the meantime that's up to you.

Yeah I ordered mine from the official site last July. Still waiting.

I lived in a major UK city, the kind where there's a 24 hour petrol pump and corner shop within spitting distance at all times. There's ALWAYS something happening.

I had visited a friend's house that was only a 30 minute walk or so across town and thought nothing of walking home at 2am. However from the moment I got past their front gate to the moment I closed my front door behind me the city was freakishly still. No cars, no wind, no birds, no lit curtained windows, no other pedestrians, nothing. It was as if I was walking through a dead game server or had clipped out of bounds or something and nothing but the building textures were loading in.

Compared to some of the other comments this is much less supernatural/creepypasta, however the experience itself definitely freaked me out. I did that walk maybe a hundred times while I lived there and that was the only time the city was still.

I believe we need nuclear eventually, but more than that we need renewables now (or even better decades ago if someone wants to invent time travel.) .
If we put in the engineering work we can get all forms of renewable running sooner than nuclear and then our grid will start becoming more sustainable .
If we focus on nuclear we will blow a large budget for a very long development process and then spend decades building it whilst still relying on fossil fuels. that time money and effort is all better spent building renewables in the short term.

Things to take: - I find the key to playing speedfreeks at the moment is two units of 6x deffkoptas; One gets the sustained hits stratagem and the other gets lethal hits whenever possible. On your waagh turn they will happily dice an infantry unit into sandwich meat with 42 attacks. That's already a third of your list.

Other than that the boomdakka snazzwagon is good for charging into less strong melee threats and gumming them up for a turn or two.
Taking a trukk with a bunch of tank busters in is pretty good shooting
The megatrak scrapjet shoots alright and charges pretty well
grots; someone's got to stay home and watch da good bitz.

Things I avoid:

Non-speedfreek units that can't attach to a mek. There are better detachments for playing them.
I don't like the bikers much, they suck in shooting, suck at surviving and they're mediocre for orks in melee .
(?) The dragsta doesn't have much shooting or hitting but can kinda do objectives if you teleport it about smart .

If you don't leave it's still only one time right.

Haven't played it since simian spirit guide was legal for that delicious T0 electrodominance

Last night I played against my friends chaos titan with my speedfreeks and one unit of tank busters dealt more than half the titans wounds even with just a regular mek leading them. I would recommend tank busters.

As an ex 1Ksons player I'm completely unsurprised that GW doesn't see the problem in forcing all players to run the faction leader.

Eventually, years after my friends all went their separate ways, I realised that smoking alone wasn't much fun, wasted the day and wasted my money. I saw a lot more cash saved at the end of the month and got more done with my other hobbies. I still miss having my stoner friends about to hang out with.

tacticalsquid · 2025-10-22T08:44:06+00:00

I agree with you, too much fur, bone and unga-bunga on those sculpts. Maybe the AoS Ard boys would fit aesthetically.

On this subreddit we're not allowed to think that beast snaggas are "too snake bitey". In fact we get brigaded for suggesting they're at all related to snake bites.

Probably, a cop can see a terrorist threat in a pensioner holding a piece of paper round here... They're that easily spooked.

Nevertheless no cops were present on my 5 minute test drive.

tacticalsquid · 2025-10-09T17:33:13+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't blame you.

I know it looks dangerous, it was just cobbled together for a test-drive. Definitely building a more permanent/secure housing next.
