I once told a coworker when discussing a creative process, "that works for you, but I think in bullet points and black & white."

For Hobby History, I recommend Arbitor Ian. He's an old grognard like me who has been collecting for decades, and explains some of the interesting changes and old lore of the setting (stuff from as far back as when Space Marines all had "born to kill" type graffiti all over their armour). He also does a "Tale of four gamers" type thing with some other hobbyists, and it feels a bit like those old White Dwarf articles come to life. Lots of nostalgia, but also new lore too.
I was a terrible salesperson for this reason. "Here's a machine in your stated price range. It will die in 18 months. And it sucks."
The contrast of that deep, deep blue to the yellow/gold is really nice. Looks good.
Literally only a few years ago we had a national argument about sexuality. Shouldn't we at least have some national demographics to back up this kind of discourse? An understanding of who modern Australia really is?
That's got to be a two-three man job.
Not long, but I'm no tradie, I barely wear them, so long enough for me.
I trace the outline of my thumbnail with the pad of my index finger..
I love drumming my fingers on the table/desk. And I can tell by the sound when it's time to trim my nails, because the tapping sound of nails hitting wood sets my teeth on edge.
I get most of my everyday clothes from Target. You get the occasional dodgy seam, but for jeans, trackies, and t-shirts they're pretty good. In no way haute couture, but it's $10 a t-shirt.
Wait, they're getting rid of Scouts entirely? That seems weird. Perhaps they'll get a replacement in the new reveals, but if not, that's a big departure.
Had a close friend in school who was collecting Ultramarines. That was about the time 2nd Ed came out, and for Christmas my brother and I split the starter box. I was going through a bit of a crisis of faith, and the imagery and background of warrior monk Space Marines really grabbed me. Later I got hooked by the really old metal Imperial Guard (I have a soft spot for underdogs) and I was permanently hooked. I later lost that friend who got me into it in a car accident near the end of high school. Whenever I see ol' Marneus Calgar I think of him.
