Yeah, so, it turns out things that are incredibly emotionally charged, such as war and mating rituals, generate a lot of art.
Actually, how are you aliens making art when you are so detached from things like that?
"Wait, humans have culture? Oh, sorry, no, I was just taken aback a bit. I don't mean to insult your species, you just all seem so constantly preoccupied with your warfare and mating rituals that it hadn't occurred to me that you would have time for the arts."
"Oh, no, we have plenty of art. Visual arts, sculpture, music, storytelling... And their combinations in all sorts of way. I actually play an instrument myself, and one of my favourite songs is based on an old folk tale. Would you like to hear it?"
"Absolutely! I was already astonished to only hear that human art exists at all, not to imagine that I could witness it!"
"Alright. So this is a song about a man who starts a war against his brother because they both want the same woman."
Every time I see someone make a joke about "I hear you do strange things to your warriors", I have to restrain myself from making a joke about Chogoris' level of technology.
I know I shouldn't, but it's really tempting.
Instead I settle for making fun of the fact that Jaghatai called Fulgrim taking care of his sons a "strange thing" for him to do.
Hilarious that you think us not being functional after 8:30 pm is okay.
would you put a discarded fruit sticker on my forehead in whimsical jest yes or no
So, if they buy California, does that mean I don't have to cross the Atlantic to go to a Lego internship in Denmark?
There is a reason my homebrew chapter is a Blood Angels successor.
I'm quite fond of femboy vampires in power armor with jet packs.
Waiiit, a minute...
Hmm...
Let me check something real quick, *ehem*
FULGRIM IS A LITTLE BITCH!!! JUST A STUPID FEMBOY!!! HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING AND HE ACHIEVED NOTHING, EVEN BEFORE CHAOS GOT HIS ASS!!! HE NEVER LOVED ANYONE!!!! PERTURABO IS A CHAD FOR BEATING HIM UP IN ANGEL EXTERMINATUS!!!!! FERRUS AND HORUS SHOULD'VE NEVER TRUSTED HIM!!!!
Each of the base marine detachments except for First Company is designed to be particularly fitting for one of the codex-compliant first founding chapters.
Anvil Siege Force: Imperial Fists
Stormlance Assault Force: White Scars
Ironstorm Spearhead: Iron Hands
Gladius Task Force: Ultramarines
Firestorm Assault Force: Salamanders
Vanguard Spearhead: Raven Guard
They are also pretty blatant about which chapter they correspond to. Anvil has an enhancement related to the chapter fleet, which seems like it comes out of the blue until you realize that the Imperial Fists have always had a pretty important and powerful fleet.
Ah classic GW, going out there proclaiming the "year of chaos" or whatever and then on the reveal show that has all established chaos legions primed they show off more new/refreshed models for some redundant cringe Space Marine offshoot than the actual chaos factions get.
In addition, they somehow imply to make Imperial Fists and Salamanders unique factions BEFORE Drukhari is even on the horizon for a Codex. Just what is up with that?
GW, what the hell?
Wargaming says bisexuals are valid

I mean, the idea that future archeologists would look purely at bone structure to identify gender, when they almost certainly would a) have more methods available and b) know that transgender people are a thing, was pretty silly.
future archaeologists will know you were (not) a boy
Do it.
I think the reason why I dislike Guillivraine so much is because of the fact that, imo, the majority of the shippers don't really take the ship seriously themselves. Jokes about ships are fine and cool, but that's literally all I see about the ship. Not two people carrying the burden of trying to save their respective races from certain doom and feeling understood by the other. Not two people haunted and traumatized by their respective pasts. Not all the nuances and difficulties that would happen in the case of Human x Eldar relationship: diplomatic, platonic and especially romantic.
But nope. Its quite literally just a xenophilia joke to even the shippers themselves. I don't mind xenophilia jokes about human x alien relationships in 40k, but not when it's... just everything there is to the pair.
Femboys, Warhammer 40,000, Battleships, and whatever else crosses my mind
