He Is One Of Many Characters That Gets Reduced To A Joke In Meme Lore.

So much of the discourse surrounding anything Slaanesh-related is so obnoxiously full of homophobic undertones.

Frankly, I hate how Slaanesh is so often reduced down to just "haha sex addiction haha". There is so much more to the God of Excess than that.

i just want the EC to be respected. okay. as they are. not just the pre heresy version of them. not some macho masculine version of them. as they are. with all their problems and beauty and messy infighting and substances and queercoding and everything. can we just be respected. please

Even treating "erotic/sexual art or writing" as something separate from pornography (which is pretty reasonable, in my opinion),

more people need to give themselves permission to write and draw pornography.

They'll find your body alright. They'll be finding your body for centuries.

ok but give me one good reason why you wouldn’t date Kermit the frog besides that he is a puppet and a frog

It's a case of something I've actually seen in myself, where they're so set in their ways and beliefs that the idea of "someone", as in, a distant unknown figure, would disagree with them. Sure, they might know a person who does, but that's a *That Person* thing, they only do it because they're "weird". They see something they like, and to them of *course* it agrees with them, because to them, it has no reason not to.

They're like the Emperor. They're so sure that they're right that they can't comprehend some "sane, informed, and reasonable" person disagreeing with them.

So apparently on twitter there's a whole thing going on where anti-woke Warhammer fans performatively stormed out by declaring that they were going to play the horror-themed WWI wargame Trench Crusade instead, only to be mass-banned from its discord because the moderators didn't want a bunch of paleocon trolls stinking up the place.

The thing that blows my mind isn't just that they thought the thoroughly subversive Trench Crusade was positive Christian rep, but that they thought Warhammer 40,000 was. The setting where the messiah is explicitly dead and rotting and was an anti-religion crusader in life. Meanwhile Warhammer Fantasy's Sigmar is much more Thor than Jesus. A lot of conservative evangelicals and tradcaths seem to fall into liking straight up pagan gods if they have a sufficiently macho and traditionalist (western European) aesthetic.

Honestly, this is beyond media illiteracy, it's just straight-up blindness. Obliviousness beyond even the people who think Robocop and Starship Troopers are gung-ho pro-American action movies. Now I'm left to wonder how many fans of the Blasphemous game series are passionate reactionary Christians who get the happy feelings from the aesthetics and totally ignore the story and themes.

Still, I am glad to have learned about Trench Crusade through this, looks like a cool game. Aesthetic and themes kind of remind me of the Trench Foot/Countrycide mod for Doom (which, granted, started off as a Warhammer 40K mod...).

His name is Squinglus Dinglus, and he is an honorable battle-brother of the Ultrasmurfs Space Marine Chapter

NEVER get into anything thats heavy on color symbolism bro . for months you will not be able to look at the color blue without instantly thinking of Squingle Dinglus

Fulgrim's fall wasn't from the Imperium to Chaos.

It was from "It is your duty to raise them up, as high as they will go. Anything less is not worthy of you" to "What we have won is already being given away to imperfect mortals who will waste the glories we won for them".

Are Flawless Blades basically just streamers for daemonic audiences?

Anyways, I have a new headcanon.

The necron is in Twice Dead King (and she only really gets an offhand mention, so all we know about her is that she transitioned some time after biotransferrence).

Trans rights in the Imperium are definitely something stratified, though. I'd expect that gender-affirming surgery in the Imperium is about as difficult to access as any other type of surgery (due to most of the population living on hiveworlds in slums that are comparable in density to Kowloon), but those that do have access have access to things beyond what anyone on earth could ever hope to receive. But nobody would go around thinking trans people are heretics or mutants or whatever.

TIL that there's a canon trans Drukhari Wych Succubus. Like actually stated that she used to be male, but after reaching this rank she transitioned into being a female Drukhari and seems to be totally cool with it.

Slay.

The US certainly did play a huge role in beating the Nazis, too. The Leand-Lease act sent billions of dollars worth of supplies across the Atlantic, which was a major factor in the allied victory. Roughly 30% of the trucks, bombers, and fighters used by the Soviet Union by the end of the war were US-supplied, not to mention the immense amount of food shipped over.

We did beat them, not with guns but with farms and factories (and then we helped with the guns part at the end).

Since the ecclesiarchy's reason for creating sororitas was the fact that they were forbidden from having men under arms nonbinary sororitas are 100% allowed within canon send post
