imagine you're in a pokemon battle on the side of some random road and this little girl calls back her wartortle and throws out a fresh ball and out pops kyubey. it's fucking kyubey from PMMM
she's like kyubey use quick attack! and you're trying to call a time-out to ask what the fuck is going on and the next thing you see kyubey has grabbed your pidgey by the head like a cat and snapped its fucking neck. no red light, no "fainted," pidgey is fucking limp & dead. the girl is giggling like yeah kyubey you won! like it's normal
This is what it's like to play mtg against an eldrazi player

T'au hate never changes
It is insane to me that even now in the year 2026 if you watch a vid about T'au on youtube and scroll down to the comments they are just filled of endless hate for the faction.
I do not think there is any single faction in the setting the fandom has ever so collectively hated and shat upon. It is just bizarre to me.
The fact the the complaints about them are always along the lines of 'they win too much' or 'they have too much plot armour' in a setting where Space Marines, Custodes and Primarchs exist defies my understanding.
What sort of cognitive dissonance must exist to look at 40k's lore and conclude that the T'au are the faction with the most plot armour?! How does one even rationalize something like that?!
I thought overtime the hate would reduce because the T'au certainly are a faction which sells well by all indications, but the T'au still seem to be the most widely hated faction in the setting by far.
I don't understand how one can be so hypocritical as to like Space Marines but think T'au have too much plot armour. Incomprehensible to me.
It is easy to understand once you realize that the T'au as a concept are a very specific psychological threat to Imperium fanboys.
You know the difference between Imperium fans and Drukhari fans? The latter fully admit how fucked up their faction is and vibe with them especially because of it. The vocal Imperial fanboys often just point to the setting and say "but everyone is stupid evil that is the setting!".
Except not everyone is stupid grimdark evil. The T'au would be the hypercompetent oppressive evil empire in most other settings, but here they are just a rational actor showcasing by existing how fucked up the Imperium is in contrast. It makes them look bad.
Worse: it makes them look stupid.
And that happens in addition to the T'au being a threat to humanity's main-charater role in the setting, which also seems to trigger in some fans a reaction that can only be suspected to be rooted in a "fear of emasculisation".
Look at the main audience demographic that displays such behavior, and the result is not surprising. Masculinity so fragile it demands a rabid defense reaction when some fictional blue people question its favourite caricature of itself by existing...
You are definitely right.
It just absolutely boggles my mind to imagine somehow being so blind as to not realize the hypocrisy of complaining about T'au plot armour when you like Space Marines or Custodes.
I shouldn't be surprised, humans have an endless talent for cognitive dissonance and hypocrisy, but it still just surprises me it has endured so long.
I think you hit on something there which is very interesting which is the fact that most of this outrage comes from male players of the Imperium factions (usually Space Marines) and so that concept of 'emasculation' is an interesting one, thanks for bringing it up to me, it is something I will definitely have a think about because that is a good point.
I do think your point about the Imperium/Drukhari is also a great way of explaining it because as fans of outright villainous factions like Orks, Tyranids and such I don't ever try to pretend my faction is behaving morally, but for much of the Imperium fan's supporters a core pillar of their support is predicated on their argument that 'actually everything the Imperium does is necessary!'
Thanks for this, good points all around!
I feel like there is also a degree of orientalism involved with how much the Tau is assoicated with japanese media like gundams and how they are very samurai coded
I got to try ube ice cream recently (they bought some for us at work) and now i really need to find a Filipino place that sells it so i can get more.
ooooh nice! how do you find the taste? 👀
It was delicious. Sweet but not over bearingly sweet.
The world has irrevocably changed 😃
The person who told the cops about her abortion was her boyfriend btw. For your safety, do not sleep with or date men who would not defend your rights. There is no "we don't talk politics" or "we just agree to disagree" when his disagreement is your loss of freedom. Stop dating men who would turn you in for a nickel if you hurt their feelings.
Absolutely bonkers that I'm now one of those weirdos you hear about on Twitter
I committed to the bit so hard that I also committed misdemeanor impersonation of a government official
Your therapist asks you "Who in this image do you see yourself as?" and then shows you a drawing of two shirtless skinny anime catboys with a thread of saliva going between their lips
It was actually just an ink blot but thank you, this gives me a lot to work with
Raven had just finished killing someone, covered in blood, then Raven called Cinder pitifully，asked she to pick her up.

If you're just learning about this, some of the other questions you might ask yourself next are: - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Aruba? - Why the fuck are there even 4 US military bases in Australia? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in the Bahamas? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Bahrain? - Why the fuck are there even 3 US military bases in Belgium? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Bulgaria? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Chagos archipelago apparently aka "British Indian Territory"? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Cuba? (this is of course Guantanamo bay, which is just straight up an illegal occupation of a foreign country to host a US torture prison) - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Djibouti? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Egypt? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Estonia? - Why the fuck are there even 3 US military bases in Greece? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Greenland? - Why the fuck are there even 6 US military bases in Germany? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in St. Helena? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Honduras? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Hungary? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Iceland? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Iraq? (when the Iraqi government keeps demanding that the US leave the country) - Why the fuck are there even 7 US military bases in Italy? - Why the fuck are there even 8 US military bases in Japan, if you exclude the several bases on Okinawa? It's 13 including the ones on Okinawa. - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Jordan? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Kenya? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Kosovo? - Why the fuck are there even 5 US military bases in Kuwait? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Latvia? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Lithuania? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in the Marshall Islands? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Norway? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Oman? - Why the fuck are there even 9 US military bases in the Philippines? - Why the fuck are there even 5 US military bases in Papua New Guinea? - Why the fuck are there even 5 US military bases in Poland? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Portugal? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Qatar? - Why the fuck are there even 3 US military bases in Romania? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Saudi Arabia? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in Singapore? - Why the fuck is there even a US military base in El Salvador? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Somalia? - Why the fuck are there even 8 US military bases in South Korea? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Spain? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Syria? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in Turkiye? - Why the fuck are there even 2 US military bases in the United Arab Emirates? - Why the fuck are there even 5 US military bases in the United Kingdom? Note: This list (that i got from this website cause their data was pretty recent and they had it in a handy list form) does not even seem to include things like the military airbase in the Netherlands where the americans keep nuclear bombers, or shannon airfield in ireland that the americans get to use freely for their genocide in Palestine, and used for their wars in afghanistan and iraq, so this list seems to be very far from complete.
being surprised about the Japanese ones is extra funny considering how many of these military bases are expressly colonial relationships, but Japan, the Israel of East Asia, is more of an active collaboration than a colonial relation (with the US).
If you think about it, all these thinkpieces about how Millenials are “killing” various industries reveal a pretty colossal sense of entitlement.
Under normal circumstances, if a given industry finds itself unable to sell products to a given market demographic, we’d say it’s that industry’s fault for failing to offer products that that demographic is interested in buying.
It only makes sense to blame the target demographic itself is if we’re assuming that the established industries have some intrinsic right to that demographic’s disposable income that’s being denied - which is clearly nonsense.
And I thought Millennials were supposed to be the entitled ones?
Thank you for putting into words one of the factors that has rubbed me the wrong way about the litany of articles and quotes about how Millennials are Ruining Everything ™.
Like, I have worked very hard to put out real, genuine quality stuff. The best that I can make while offering it at a reasonable price, because a business transaction should be fair; you get a good product, the business makes some profit, everyone walks away happy. I am not even that old, and I have already seen a significant decline in the quality, craftsmanship, materials and labor sources in almost all of my purchases compares to the items that my family bought when I was growing up- and I’m talking the expensive stuff, too! We have bought two Dysons from Costco in the last two years (returned both, thank god for Costco’s return policy!) and neither one functioned as well as Megan’s old parent’s Dyson that was made in the 80′s. My grandmother has an old metal sewing machine that has been kicking longer than I have but I’ve been through about four sewing machines in my lifetime, each one managed to last twoish years. And these are the things off the top of my head, and it goes all the way down. Like how they started manufacturing secretly-smaller containers for things with the bubble on the bottom so you don’t notice there’s less product inside, or how Charmin made their rolls ‘shorter’ than they used to be but they are still technically the same number of ‘sheets’- I mean, I know I sound a little crazy, but if you’re Charmin and you reduce the amount of paper material per-roll by even a single penny, even a fraction of a penny, it would add up to much bigger profits; and a bigger expense passed on to the consumer, who won’t notice that the rolls are an inch shorter (except me because I’m weird that way)
I see companies constantly finding ways to cut corners, pay employees less, and put out crappier merchandise, and then go “Why won’t anyone buy this stuff?!” and I just don’t get why they’re confused.
I’m resurrecting an ancient post, because nothing here has changed in the intervening time. The recent post about “tech hoarding” because people aren’t buying new phones on a regular schedule reminded me.
The companies definitely now feel entitled to profit and business, rather than earning it.
See now: “how dare Gen z not buy alcohol”
I’m sorry you priced people out of your product. That’s your fault, though.
Notice how Charlie Kirk is awfully quiet about Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham? Curious.
