This is what happens when we dont have basic rights like universal healthcare or stable jobs. And the “lesser evil” political party has nothing to offer besides vague phony optimism.

More and more people are being pushed to the fringe right due to the failures of capitalism.

We need better.

        (I’m actually extremely slowly painting high elves for TOW, haven’t played 40k since the mid-2000s, that model is cool as hell tho it’s like the two eels from little mermaid)

          Thanks, it’s sooo much better than the monopose warlocks GW sells (and cheaper to boot!). There’s also a secret third eel hiding behind her hand. You should post your elves to /c/hobby once they’re done! Always love to see people’s work.

      I feel like the sort of person that is like that is actually a really tiny minority that takes up a lot of space by being loud, shit, and purchasing a lot of miniatures, and think that a “competitive community” that hasn’t kicked them out yet is the only “real” hobbyists.
