A thread on customizing a roughly 1/12 scale Nylint Jeep. #actionfugures #gijoeclassified #valaverseactionforce #toytruck Note that the roll bar is dislocated in one spot. I'm thinking either olive drab or matte black. I will try to update this thread as I proceed on the work.
The end goal of conservatism is the reinstatement of slavery as acceptable. Fascism is a means to that end. Tell people what you are going to do, not what the fascists are doing. That is why the DNC keeps losing. If you can't understand that, you are unfit for office.
Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.
Just say the 14 words already. Holy fuck.
The guy the DNC made us vote for in 2020 is responsible for expanding the school to prison pipeline in the 90s. The DNC leadership keeps tripping over their own dicks to distance themselves from popular candidates who are bringing out 1st time voters. Tone deaf is their primary campaign strategy.
You are replying to a thing that believes investing in America meant destroying pensions so successive generations had to rely on a volatile stock market for retirement.
The devil has enough advocates.
On villain redemption. Not all great villains need redemption. Mystique needs to stay the Bisexual Menace. But I'm glad Juggernaut became a (anti)hero. It fits his origin, IMHO. Magneto, I feel the same way. It makes sense to "redeem him. I also hope Mr. Sinister never gets redeemed.
the never ending reposts will continue until my pocketbook's morale improves! plus side? Seems to have fixed the issues. Downside? Now gotta pay for it! ko-fi.com/bishopsbeerf...
GI Joe was a gateway comic for a lot of people. It is amazing that a licensed comic managed to make it 150+ issues in a single run. It is a credit to Larry Hama that it lasted that long, and he was brought back decades later to continue the story across two other publishers.
Lacus Clyne is a dollar store imitation mix of Lynn Minmei & Sayla Mass, but nowhere close to either.
This is your reminder that in order to mitigate the great depression the Republicans enacted the Smoot Hawley act, which placed historically high tarrifs on over 20k items, resulting in a deepening of that depression and exporting it to the rest of the world. Conservatism is a cancer.

When celebraties become culturally irrelevant, they try to regain it by grifting the right. He knows his time has passed, and his 15 minutes have expired. In order to maintain it, he vomits fascist talking points. Maybe he even thinks being a pick me will keep him safe.
Michael Palin is feeling irrelevant. This only proves he is
Ahem, Mikey

This is your periodic reminder that America First was started by nazi sympathizers to keep the US out of WWII. That includes Charles Lindbergh. When they say America First, they mean America Next. - Woody Guthrie
Does he not understand that degenerative AI is unobtainium?

What were your first 3 #TTRPGbox sets? - D&D Red Box - Star Frontiers - RTG Cyberpunk (2013)
Centrism is a cancer, and Gavin Newsom is currently the largest tumor.
You are a fascist enabler and the reason we are here. The moment you decided George Conwy was a voice that needed to be boosted (a member of the group who packed the courts with fascists), you became part of the problem. You are the dead horse the left keeps hitching its wagon to. Sit this one out.
They know what the public wants (needs). They just don't want to give give up the benefits of fascism.
Liberalism is a cancer. Moderates are enablers.
Don't engage with fascists
NY Yankees and Dallas Cowboys fans are unequivocally the most insufferable people in the world. I'm not saying it's impossible. I'm saying the bar for the worst people is in low Earth orbit with the 2 groups listed above.
My favorite mecha designer, Mamoru Nagano, is responsible for my favorite MS Hyaku Shiki and my favorite ship, the Argama.
The DNC does not want compromise, they want compliance. They have no interest in governing, just collecting PAC money and fundraising against the fascists they enabled.
Liberals claim to want compromise. In reality, they want compliance.
As much as I would prefer @andybeshearky.bsky.social as the replacement to Mitch McConnell, he is our best shot at winning the 2028 presidential election. Yes, I'm aware that there is 3 years until that time. But I keep seeing "who do you want?" That's who. 4/4
The majority of the people who I follow and who follow me understand this. But for those of you who do not, it's time to either accept that y'all's party is done for and work to push it left, or prepare for punishing defeats in 2026 and 2028. 3/
But let's be honest, the party leaders know this. They know why they are losing. They just don't care. PAC money is just too valuable to give up. They know that not backing Mamdani in NYC and Fateh in Minneapolis will backfire. But they are so anathema to change that it doesn't matter. 2/
Fun fact: Jill Stein got 1% on the vote in 2024. The libertarian party got 4%. Stein never posed a threat to the DNC. Yet she is one of the biggest excuses for the DNC to maintain their shift right. Even if she were a threat, they would need to address why people are voting green instead of blue. 1/
Freddy ain't want NONE of this....
10 games to get to know me: - Saint's Row 2021 - Saint's Row 2 - Dragon Age Inquisition - Fallout 4 - Skyrim - Cyberpunk 2077 - Assassin's Creed Odyssey - Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Outer Worlds - Knights of the Old Republic 2
If you tell me that now is not the time to criticize the appointed DNC 2028 presidential candidate candidate, you are telling me that you would rather lose in 2028 than push the appointee left.
Looks like y'all have appointed Gavin Newsom and Pick me Pete as the big D presidential candidates. You demand compromise, but it's one-sided. We're here because Biden appointed a fascist as the attorney General instead of someone who was willing to prosecute the fascists. Good luck in 2028.
A nazi who's also a transphobe? Color me shocked. Just wait until he says something overtly racist. Is going to be lit when Joanne's army goes after gay men.
This is the template for martial law. Now that he hasn't been properly challenged, he knows he's got free reign to expand it. If Mamdani is elected, he will try NYC next. If that fails, it will be a city like Louisville.
There is no logic in the leap. They are blue Maga, and any criticism of the big D party is tantamount to voting for the other guy. Even if it is mild and / or justified. You know, vote blue no matter who as long as they don't threaten the status quo.
I enjoyed it, but Solo would have been a better movie if it was about a different Corellian scoundrel and not Han Solo's origin.
@redcomets.net The best Charchatype
No. We don't need an elderly moderate celebrity in charge of the country. He is not the next Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Parenting. But boomers would have to actually put someone else's needs before their wants, so half assed, overreaching measures will have to do instead. Also, limiting access to information makes slavery easier to reinstate as an acceptable institution.
There are going to be a lot of terfs who are going to be angry and confused when they aren't allowed into public restrooms.
This is a representation of a Cyberpunk character made from a an OG metal necromunda mini. I'm particularly proud of the dreads. The sculpt fit my vision of the character almost perfectly. Including two big pistols. He is a full conversion cyborg who looks normal. Investigor Marco.
Early on, we hear Ewok noises and see movement, but he isn't able to get a good lock. He kills one, and it's on. The last thing he sees before he can set off his nuke is an Ewok spearing him through the neck, killing him instantly. 2/2
Since Disney owns Star Wars and Predator, I want a Predator V Ewok movie. It would be better if it was from the POV of the Predator. He comes to the moon of Endor to hunt a large creature. The movie is sort of a reverse of the OG Predator. The final scene is an Ewok using the helmet as a drum. 1/
I expect very little from CNN.
Just so we are clear, you didn't interview Joaquin Oliver. You interviewed a fictional version of him created by an algorithm that didn't exist when he was murdered. He could not consent to this, even if his parents did. Do I think it's exploitation? No. Was it appropriate? Also no. Do better.
Genocide
When I say DnD is the Unity engine of TTRPGs, this is what I mean. It's essentially just TTRPG shovelware. People keep getting surprised by the low quality trash produced to capitalize on the laziness of DnD players. Play better games.
You have to understand. Andy likes them young.
Also, William is feckless, I doubt he's going to run Andrew out. Decorum and all that.
Couldn't have happened to a better person. Though I'm sure there are a few others in his list.
I'm afraid there is no way.
Fred Wertham would be proud.
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social When the fascists kill all of the trans people they are coming for you. All of the mealy mouthed toe sucking to appeal to them isn't going to save you from the camps. When you chase the fascist adjacent vote you alienate everyone else. But that's par for the big D course.
If only we had a governing body with the will and courage to do something about this.
If Biden did it, the moderates would find a way to justify it. The right would do what they always do and slander Biden without condemning actual pedos, and the left would continue to call for his resignation.
One of my favorite things was Basara's reaction to the tabloid article asking of he was in a relationship with Gamlin wasn't, "I'm not gay" it was "I'm not dating anyone!" But let's be honest, it didn't take itself too seriously.
Listen to my song!
Vitally important to wash your cybertruck with salt water and lemon juice. You'll need 1/8 cup of salt per gallon of water, plus 1/4 cup of lemon juice. Stir well, then use it to wash the vehicle. It's the only way to get a really thorough cleaning.
Quote with a character who would survive in warhammer 40K And everyone would hate him there, too.
We have a Westinghouse sewing machine that was built in the 1940s. We bought it for $20 at a thrift store in the late 90s. We had to replace the power cord. Otherwise, it does its job well.
When a homophobe demands that creators make a new character instead of retconning an existing character as LGBTQ, you get Dr. Aphra.
I'm pretty sure Hasbro hates money.
Y'all need to understand that the end goal of conservatism is the reinstatement of slavery as acceptable. Fascism is a means to that end. And yes, neoliberals are conservatives and are part of it, no matter how much they shout and cry about it.
Using woke/DEI as an excuse absolves the wealthy neoliberals from their complicity in the gutting social safety nets and scientific research.
I have bad news for you. This isn't about woke or DEI. It's about looting the economy. Woke/DEI is just the way they sold it to their idiot cult. If it wasn't woke/DEI it would be something else. For the love of all that is woke, stop pretending otherwise.
If only there were a governing body that had the courage and will to do something about it.
Hi, So it might be a distraction, but he will do his very best to follow through on the threat, and the dems will issue a strongly worded tweet. The NYT will offer an opinion on why it's okay, actually.
Please don't be surprised when neurodivergant people are rounded up and sent to forced labor camps. That goal was stated, and this administration has a history of carrying out those threats. Be angry when the response is a strongly worded letter and an NYT justification. Just don't be surprised.
Hi Anna, I'm not surprised that the conservatives have chosen the route of fascism. You can look back on the recent history and see that it was an inevitable conclusion. That doesn't mean I'm not angry. It means that, given the information available, I understood what was coming.
HE SAID IT OUT LOUD IN PUBLIC. Y'all refuse to learn from the past. In his last administration, he suggested an egregious action, then told us he was only joking. Then he went through with the egregious action. Then y'all said, "BUT HE CAN'T DO THAT."
What he says goes.
On top of being a racist piece of shit he was also an anti-union scab. The world is a better place for his loss.
"Your call is important to us, so we have completely eliminated anyone who can prove it and replaced them with algorithms designed to avoid offering any help whatsoever."
In the 80s he buddy fucked his fellow wrestlers who were trying to unionize. He was swimming in the kool-aid.
I bet if the WWE had a union, he might have lived longer. 🤷‍♀️ I guess we'll never know.
FOR THE LOVE OF PHOENIX DON'T GIVE HIM AN ENGLISH ACCENT. Also, he is a dick and always has been. Always. Since X-Men #1 in 1963.
A friendly reminder that Professor X isn't English. He was born in Westchester County, New York. He has a mid-Atlantic accent. He is a US Army Korean War combat veteran. In the sliding tune scale, he is now in his early 50s, maybe. He was in his early 30s when he formed the X-Men.
We need a Jan/Jen team up/slice of life book where they fight crime and hang out.
Nostalgia is a cancer. Its also very telling that when writers don't know how to handle a female character, they pair them up with either an old ex or a male character they like.
Vaesen.
I unfollowed someone who I thought knew better than to post the tired (let's be honest) tourist trope.
You’ve inherited a movie theater. What’s your first double feature? #filmsky #moviesky
It would be intolerable to watch.
Yes, I'm aware that Hasbro is a terrible company. But I love my GI Joe action figures. One thing that Hasbro has done is make their packaging completely recyclable. All of the plastic is PET, including the window on the front of the box and the blister packing.
I think the Legion of Superheroes would be well served as an animated series in the vein of Justice League animated. Like X-Men, LoS is a team book, not a team-up book. Time needs to be taken to establish character dynamics. I would like to see it, but I don't want another GotG.
Here's the deal: Baby boomers started giving participation trophies because their feefees were hurt when their children weren't #1. It was never about awarding children for their participation, it was about baby boomers being able to see the results of their "stellar" parenting.
What made DnD DnD? Being the 1st published "TTRPG?" aggressive marketing? Being a skirmish game with roleplaying elements tacked on? Did it really have an identity beyond those? I agree with you on most points, but I don't think it had much of an identity beyond how much money it made.
Everyone important knew trump was on the list. And now that the big bog bill is passed, he is a liability. This isn't in fighting. He's getting agnewed.
Dakota North and the Punisher didn't fight for the Goo-Gams for nothing! Best issue ever. Dakota North is one of my favorite Marvel characters. You may not have gotten to this issue yet. But it involves the Goo-gams.
