So obviously this is not the Weekly Warhammer Woundup, and for that I am sorry. Thanks to ArmedandHammered's tireless efforts to edumacate us, however, I am intrigued. Not being a tabletop gamer, I have instead chosen to stick my head into the yawning lion's mouth that is Warhammer 40K Fluff-

Well that was a wild NFL week, wasn't it? I even had to learn some new HippoSpeak to process our beloved Thing He Sent Us. The biggest "news" today is that Cole Beasley, anti-vaxx hero and utter dumbshit, is apparently taking his 'talents' to...uh...Not South Beach. Typhoid Beasley will head to

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - August 23, 2022

Casualties! That is the word of the day in the NFL. It's Roster Cut-Down Day (Part II), and in an effort to trim their bloated training camp rosters to a slim-and-trim 80 players per team, we've had a spate of cuts and injury designations. As this is only Part II, there

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - August 9, 2022August 9, 2022

I'm hesitant to write this now (late Monday night) because by the time this posts, some Weird Shit will probably have happened and people will be like "Why aren't you talking about the secret DeflateGate video they found in Donald Trump's underwear drawer?"
