@trinitycores
not every mutual fits neatly into an archetypal medievalism but there are some mutuals that im like yeah addressing you as “my liege” would come strangely naturally
what mutual is prev
my liege lord
my loyal knight
my wise wizard
my evil advisor
my brother in arms
my lady muse
my wild mermaid friend
my fellow alchemist
my dashing rapscallion
my monstrous foe
nothing changes between these two
I shall post the handcrafted meme I made long time ago
This meme is having a second life due to Darktide people questioning how Skitarii look like under their gear, probably
"He fell down, and saw Mathieu and the cauldron disappear behind a wall of shocking luminance. For a moment he thought he saw a golden giant bringing down a flaming sword onto the cauldron, his eyes full of sorrow, yet his face determined..."
The painting showed the Emperor, ascendant above all, catching the spinning constellations in his outstretched hand. The stars.’ Horus said. 'See, there? How he scoops them up? The zodiacs swirl into his grasp like fireflies. The stars are mankind's birthright. That's what he told me. That's one of the first things he told me when we met. I was like a child then, raised up from nothing. He set me at his side, and pointed to the heavens. Those points of light, he said, are what we have been waiting generations to master. Imagine, Horus, every one a human culture, every one a realm of beauty and magnificence, free from strife, free from war, free from bloodshed and the tyrannous oppression of alien overlords. Make no mistake, he said, and they will be ours.’ Horus slowly traced his fingers across the whorl of painted stars until his hand met the image of the Emperor's hand. (Dan Abnett, "Horus Rising")
It would be kind of fun to have a medical dramamedy show where people (patients and people in the medical field) could submit their craziest experiences with the medical system and those plotlines and patient stories could be dramatized and woven into a cohesive narrative with any additional profits from the show going to pay off medical debt.
Plotline A: Patient is suffering from a near fatal case of hypothermia after passing out in the snow drunk and laying there all night until his 13 year old nephew discovered him in the morning, said 13 year old managed to transport his druncle to the hospital on a snowmobile but the rest of the family cannot make it there due to road conditions.
Plotline B: A live rat fell through the ceiling halfway through an emergency appendectomy, causing the surgeon to startle and rupture the patient’s appendix. Infectious disease is very interested in the situation due to the risk of zoonotic infection. The hospital’s legal department is also very interested in the situation.
Hey OP what happened to you
I’ve been chronically ill since the age of 14 and I enjoy eavesdropping
🔥 Emperor of Mankind 🔥
I rly love concept that everyone sees Emperor in their own way
Is nothing off-limits for you to swear by???
Forge Spider / Canoptek Spyder
Not gonna lie, this is probably my best miniature to date. I had a plan for the OSL shining from the bottom of the spider, and I think I executed it pretty well! It's always a good sign when you have to keep doing double-takes to see if it's actually an LED in the miniature you just painted. I got so excited about the OSL that I almost forgot the touches of gold on the tops of the legs and front of the carapace.
repeat after me. humans are not inherently evil humans are not like a virus on this earth humans do not “deserve” to go extinct or anything like that. we are living breathing animals that deserve space just like every other creature on this planet. there’s just a tiny amount of us that have a fuck ton of money and power and they really suck
Omg "humans are a virus" pisses me off specifically sooooo much. If humans on earth were like anything in a body they would be bacteria. There are many bacteria in a person! We evolved to have bacteria in us!!! The bacteria NEED to be there to keep the body functioning. It's when bacteria behave in ways that disregard the health of the host that we have problems
Humans are animals like any other animal. We have the ABILITY to exist in harmony with our ecosystem. The current issue is like if 0.001% of the bacteria that help break down your food suddenly started forcing other bacteria to start eating your tissue instead
Or: Humans are not a virus infecting a body. Humans are symbiotic bacteria. The mindless hoarding of wealth is a bacteriophage
i wanna talk about this shot
if forum signatures still existed this would be mine
God fucking damn it
Wait... How many more bugs have escaped the sketchbook?...
Mm turns out quite a lot it seems. Might take me a while to wrangle them back up
Ok wtf you get off my cat
Imo the best type of system for children to grow up in would be one that assumes the birth parents/primary guardians won't do shit and takes care of every aspect of childcare that's essential for their wellbeing and development, collectively.
But I'm just a guy who only learned how to brush his teeth properly and got glasses as a child because we had both a dentist and a doctor come to school on a regular basis. The dentist would have us all stand in a circle with our little toothbrushes and show us how to brush and correct our technique. The doctors would give us general health assessments and then have the teachers contact our patents and essentially peer pressure them into getting us any health intervention we needed. My parents only reluctantly got me glasses because they knew the teachers would judge them if they kept seeing me sit in the very front row and still squint to see the chalkboard. So I'm biased.
The only times I ever remember seeing a dentist or doctor as a child was at school. I'm quite healthy physically and I'm very grateful for all the care I got from the various professionals who cared about my well-being and development more than my actual parents did.
We had free healthcare including dental, mind you, my parents just couldn't be bothered. When my brother, as a teenager, asked our mother if she could take him to his orthodontist appointments (which he'd already arranged for on his own) she basically told him she didn't feel like it and he had to take the bus.
If I could improve anything about that system, I'd take it even further and make it so kids could see a doctor and get meds, treatments, therapy, tests, disability aids etc. without having to rely on their parents as well. I shouldn't have had to put up with being bullied and guilt-tripped about the family finances and the time investment needed to take me to the optometrist every time I needed new glasses.
Some parents would not take care of their children even if they were given all the time and the resources. Mine are a great example of that — my mother stopped working and became a homemaker when I was in kindergarten, my father worked from the garage and was also always home. They had a car and our village even had a bus that would come once or twice an hour that would take you to the next two bigger cities.
Did that, plus the free healthcare, translate into them actually parenting and caring for us properly? It did not. They only ever did any of that reluctantly when not doing it would make them look bad, and most of the time they did a shitty job because they could never resist the urge to boost their egos by means of bullying literal children.
So I have to wonder: what did they actually contribute to our upbringing? Like they didn't teach us shit and mostly they just endangered our mental and physical health — but hey, at least they gave me cPTSD! That took some work too.
see also family abolition, and youth liberation .
A knee-jerk response to neglectful parenting I see a lot is “people should have to get licenses and take rigorous tests to PROVE that they should be ALLOWED to have kids” which is eugenics. That’s just the starting line for eugenics.
We are at a point in humanity where there is no meaningful reason why we shouldn’t be structuring our societies around wellbeing for all instead of wellbeing for the “deserving”.
Assume some parents will fail. Build social infrastructure that is designed to support failed kids rather than punish would-be parents.
