[remote wadi]

Our god is gone
The people that were by his side don't think the current empire is what he envision

Abbadon saw the problem with being the 9-5

[flat nimbus]

that sounds a lot like questioning, brother

[winged jacinth]

i think the logical solution is more huron-directed

[remote wadi]

They made the empire to get fcked over

The logical solution is take it for urself

Self preservation

[winged jacinth]

since buying in with chaos is an obvious trap if you're not already seduced by it, you'd want to spin off your own feifdom

[remote wadi]

Abbadon didn't fall for chaos

He seduced chaos and didn't realize he is doing what they want

Chaos doesn't want to win

Abbadon winning isn't a win

Not for chaos
Not for humanity

[flat nimbus]

well that’s just not true

[winged jacinth]

well yeah, sort of, but also the black legion represents his personal fiefdom in the warp

[remote wadi]

It's a cycle restart if he does

[remote wadi]

If they win they die

You can't have chaos without order

[flat nimbus]

the troops, yeah

[celest dome]

Macro Stubber ?

[winged jacinth]

oh... i dont know what that is but it has a magazine, so... yeah i imagine it fires bullets?

[winged jacinth]

thats the thing is like you said abbadon winning is NOT a win for chaos

its a win for the abbadonperium

[remote wadi]

Exactly it resets the cycle

[remote wadi]

But now the leader is someone that was on the trenches

The logical solution

Then we rebel again

[winged jacinth]

it just kinda replaces one of the factions among many with a slightly different faction

[celest dome]

Basically shoot slugs

[languid meadow]

the one thing that pisses me off about the comments under the trailer is that people think warriors and immortals never miss

like mf

[winged jacinth]

honestly an abaddonperium probably wouldnt even be worse for the average citizen

[languid meadow]

legit the only unit I think was done dirty by the trailer was the lychguard

[winged jacinth]

theres no reason warriors and immortals SHOULD miss, but they canonically do anyway. maybe their targetting routines didnt survive the aeons so good

[flat nimbus]

“AIMBOT.EXE NOT FOUND”

accidentally overwrote it with my “I DEFINITELY HAVE SKIN” poetry

[languid meadow]

it's because they were given inferior everything, subroutines and bodies

etc

so without like guidance they're kind of shit in comparison

also it would be boring if the base unit with the one shot kill weapon could hit every shot

[spare osprey]

Necrons seem chill to paint.

[winged jacinth]

yeah but its like... they're still machines
i agree that its critical for the narrative like the other 1000 ways they keep the necrons from steamrolling the setting

ok so painting necrons

you will do the bodies in like 10 minutes each and then every gun is like 45 minutes lol

if you get fancy with em at least

[languid meadow]

even longer if you want cool colours

[spare osprey]

I only say this to voice my lamentation over never having to want for drab colors again.

[languid meadow]

there are colourful necrons

[flat nimbus]

turns out physics was just a liiiittle different in the Old Days, and now all my calculations are fucked

[winged jacinth]

ill take some decent pics of my KT which i need to go back to now that i understand blending strats better, and also my deathmarks suck because they were the first full models i did in like 15 years

[celest dome]

I've seen some reaction that would only make sense if it was a Guardsma,

Like a full on Tech Priest

It's not that strange difference

[winged jacinth]

i need to go back and glaze the blades and gauss tubes

and as mentioned, strip and repaint the deathmarks which are so bad they're not even in that picture out of embarrasment

[spare osprey]

I need to not be sleepy for at least one afternoon and just fucking paint.

[winged jacinth]

im FINALLY painting the yaegirs that have been sitting primed on my secondary desk for months

[quiet orchid]

[winged jacinth]

i still havent learned faces but i learned leather to a degree im proud of

[spare osprey]

Good shit, good shit.

[winged jacinth]

i went into it with the idea of "what if the tomb world was on a tectonically active world so they had to stay way more active, and as a result they're clean and have lava-esque energy"

i randomly bought agrax earthshade when i was prepping for the necrons, did not use it, turns out its GOATed for leather

[solid horizon]

I havent painted recent necron models, but the ones from 10 years ago were easy batch painting spam

[spare osprey]

I wanna eventually be able to paint 'Eavy Metal tier stuff... then reach the heights of Flameon Miniatures.

[winged jacinth]

this guy i painted in full before starting the assembly line just to decide fully on scheme so hes a little overpainted

it did make me realize that when i do the leathers what i want to do is mix a base-wear-highlight set of colors and then paint some of the coats, other models backpacks, and seperate other models helmets

[solid horizon]

I have 18 days left to paint a defiler, a forgefiend and either a helbrute or skitarii

For a tournament

And I have no black primer left

[winged jacinth]

in particular this guy had a bad white, then i painted over in metal, then i painted back over with a GOOD titanium white

i have a gallon of anhydrous ethanol for personal reasons which has been a blessing

great brush cleaner

[solid horizon]

Bro you could have said alcohol

[winged jacinth]

its different than regular alcohol in that it has NO water in it

which you cant do by distillation

[solid horizon]

Powder ?

[winged jacinth]

no its 100% (or close to it picks up water from the atmosphere whenever its exposed, i keep a small working bottle and seal the bigger bottle with duct tape)

[crystal forum]

the subscription service to have other people hold your ammo for you is legit the dumbest business idea i ever heard

[winged jacinth]

i need a source for stiff, fine brushes

i went to an art supply store and they had a ton of brushes but the stiff brushes were all fairly large and the tiny brushes like 5/0s were all red sable etc

they work but i'd like them to hold a tip

[spare osprey]

I's got a set of synthetic brushes from some brand I do not remember from Amazon.
Let's see how far they take me.

[crystal forum]

i've stolen enough latex gloves and isopropyl alcohol from jobs to have an endless supply

[winged jacinth]

i have amazon brushes from some random company and they're actually really good until they start to fail after about 8 models

[winged jacinth]

ah yeah idk why i said eth its iso lol

[solid horizon]

That feeling when brush baldness

[winged jacinth]

i found the big bottle at a hardware store for like $15

who at a hardware store needs a gallon of anhydrous isopropyl alcohol??

[crystal forum]

paint stripping

it's the most used solvent

[winged jacinth]

dont you want mixed solvents for that?

[crystal forum]

every industry uses it

it's like a general purpose

[winged jacinth]

i guess iso will never damage the surface beneath the way a chlorinated solvent might

[crystal forum]

if you want something more specific you go for acetone or some shit

but IPA is just the baseline

also when it comes to workplace safety IPA is much easier to greenlight

i had to deal with that

[winged jacinth]

its always been funny to me that hardware stores also sell pure sulfuric acid and potassium nitrate solution among other things

[crystal forum]

they do?

ive never seen that

ive seen potassium nitrate as fertilizer

[winged jacinth]

yeah
potassium nitrate will be labeled as stump remover
sulfuric acid is also battery acid

[crystal forum]

idk what you'd do with sulfuric acid by yourself

[winged jacinth]

sulfuric acid you'd mostly buy as drain cleaner

[crystal forum]

i made a bottle rocket with potassium nitrate

[winged jacinth]

i guess for non-lipid clogs

[crystal forum]

and sugar

[winged jacinth]

yeah same theory for stump removal lol

[crystal forum]

drain cleaner is a scam

never use it

you're ruining your pipes

[winged jacinth]

you soak the whole damn thing in potassium nitrate and it means all the cellulose and lignin is right next to a potent oxidizer, then you just burn the thing lol

[crystal forum]

you can also make gunpowder that way

[winged jacinth]

never use it unless you're about to stop renting

[crystal forum]

i want to try to make smokeless powder one day but the whole process is so complicated

[winged jacinth]

yeah "potent oxizider" is a major chemical property

oh god like cordite?

[crystal forum]

it involves cellulose

yeah

just as a chemistry curiosity

i want to know how they first made smokeless

[winged jacinth]

its an evolution from guncotton through nitrocellulose

[crystal forum]

there's a bunch of things i wish i had the space to do

[winged jacinth]

uh alfred nobel invented nitroglycerin and someone created a way to make a similar thing out of reactions with cellulose basically

[crystal forum]

like i want to make my own copper forge

maybe even iron

[crystal forum]

oh i didnt think nitroglycerin was the precursor

[winged jacinth]

its not a chemical precursor in the process sense but the idea came from it

[crystal forum]

didnt nobel create dynamite though

[winged jacinth]

using nitric and sulfuric acids you basically react cellulose to have similar reactive nitrogens along the polymer

he did yeah

[crystal forum]

that's like the actually usable version of nitroglycerin

because by itself it's way too reactive

[rocky gale]

Chemistry nerds

[winged jacinth]

he invented nitroglycerin first, and then figured out you could package it by soaking a medium and wrapping it up to make it less shock sensitive

[crystal forum]

im barely a chemistry nerd but it interests me

[winged jacinth]

im not a chemistry nerd i am a chemistry professional

[crystal forum]

i failed my highschool chemistry

HS chemistry contains all the really annoying stuff with a couple exceptions that come later

not the hard stuff mind

but like tons of stoichiometry and equilibrium calculations and shit

[crystal forum]

i much prefer engineering

None of the stuff you learn in Chemistry matters, all you got to know is dissolve meat in acid and become immune to breathing in the vapours.

[winged jacinth]

chemistry gets hard once you get into organic chemistry

[crystal forum]

i forgot you're literally a chemist

[winged jacinth]

i know about 120 reactions for organic synthesis

just memorized because thats what the class is lol

[rocky gale]

and you'll need to know literally none of it when working in a lab

[crystal forum]

too much memorizing in chemistry

[spare osprey]

I forgor everything involving chemistry.

[crystal forum]

i hate memorizing

[winged jacinth]

im planning on a doctorate but im going into biochemistry yeah

so like, you have to know about epoxidation etc but you dont have to do it

[rocky gale]

You planning on going into research?

[crystal forum]

autism life achievements speedrun

[winged jacinth]

research or transgenic stuff, maybe biochemical engineering if that keeps developing as a field

im currently retraining from computer science so i have lots of extremely in demand programming skills

right now im working on a bioinformatics project about transcription factor binding sites in bacterial genomes

Hard!

[crystal forum]

job market is dog shit rn i can tell you that

im going back to uni because of how bad it is

[winged jacinth]

i never finished my BS in computer science i started working first and did my time as a DBA

[rocky gale]

I just do nutritional testing for foodstuff, would rather die than do research and develop new methods. Lemmie do the tests someone else figured out

[crystal forum]

i love research

my best job was in R&D

[rocky gale]

I technically can do research if I want, I just don't wanna

and am not obligated to do so

Plus if I did it would have to be in addition to my actual workload

[crystal forum]

i like doing new things because nobody can tell you how to do it

and i hate being told how to do shit

[winged jacinth]

laid off during covid, went "my career will never progress without a degree i should go back to school" > AI kept shitting up the CS job market and i was a lot less enthusiastic after it being my livelihood for years > decided to completely retrain

i very much dont want to be in academia

[crystal forum]

academia is hell

[winged jacinth]

would drive me insane i think

[crystal forum]

from what i could see

[winged jacinth]

yeah its like

[crystal forum]

it's like nepotism but for intellectualism

[winged jacinth]

if you really want to research your thing that's not obviously profitable you have to go that path but then you need to do fucking grants and grad students and probably teach part of the year...

and then you make no money

i will let go of my ethical issues with big pharma if they pay me enough

[crystal forum]

the system favors results so you have to take already treaded paths... which leads to barely revolutionary science

but you're also expected to make huge discoveries every time

That's what a meth chemistry nerd would say

research related data processing

[rocky gale]

I have a sticky note in my labcoat to remind myself whether one of the reagents I have to make up uses 1.4mg of Disoidum Hydrogen Phosphate and 14mg of Sodium Dihydrogen Phosphate or the other way round.

[arctic talon]

incredible

what happens if you use the other

[crystal forum]

sticky notes are very useful if you have ADHD

because i forget people's names

[rocky gale]

In my defence it's really easy to confuse Disodum Hydrogen and Sodium Dihydrogen

[languid meadow]

idk how to explain it but just assigning a memory to an object helps

[rocky gale]

The bottles look the same as well

[crystal forum]

do you tackle efficiency of the processing too

[arctic talon]

Yesn't

[crystal forum]

arent they all just brown bottles

[rocky gale]

It's just for making up a buffer solution, so it would screw the Enzyming process

[crystal forum]

all i have to say in my limited coding experience is nothing teaches you efficiency like trying to cram as much code as possible in a 7kB microcontroller

[arctic talon]

Yes

[rocky gale]

Na they look like this

[arctic talon]

I see, interesting

ty

I wanted to do chem when I was in highschool

[crystal forum]

wow the labels are very different over there

[arctic talon]

then I took like Chem and AP chem and realized "i'm not built for these streets"

lol

[crystal forum]

chemical labels here have different standards i think

[arctic talon]

likely

[crystal forum]

i think we use the north american standard or some shit

same as US

might just be canadian tho

[winged jacinth]

you should try a zachtronics puzzle game you'd probably like them
opus magnum or exapunks

[vagrant fox]

Education should be banned return to cavefolk standards

[rocky gale]

The concentrations basically only matter to get the PH right tbh because the enzyming process has a couple of stages where you need to correct the PH before adding the next reagent. So even if I messed up making the buffer solution it would be caught during the PH checks

[crystal forum]

nooo i'm fine with not coding in my life thanks

i like hardware

[arctic talon]

I fucking love opus magnum lmao

that shit is like meth

[winged jacinth]

ok exapunks does make you write assembly but an opus magnum solution looks like this

how ddi that import as a still

i had to learn labview in college

[winged jacinth]

yeah you basically give commands like "grab" "rotate CW/CCW" "drop" "slide along rail this far"

each arm has its own instruction list that you sync up

[crystal forum]

nothing like working in a building thats been used since the 30's and realizing you're probably sitting on a chair that had multiple generations of farts applied to it

[rocky gale]

We have lockers we can't use because the people who had the keys retired and took them with them

[winged jacinth]

people solve for speed, number of parts, a metric called "area" thats complicated, and an unofficial metric called "overall" which i like thats just the sum of the three

so you end up making machines that are small and part efficient but also fast, which tend to be elegant

[crystal forum]

coders should learn this stuff more from what i've heard

bloatware is just too prevalent these days

[languid meadow]

always incredibly funny seeing this happen in like every scientific field "Fuckkk the 3 people who knew how to do this are dead or retired and now we can't do it anymore"

[arctic talon]

deadlines

lol

[languid meadow]

happened with old nukes as well

for some fucking reason

[arctic talon]

you do not always get to make efficent solutions

[crystal forum]

yeah thats also the problem. management

[arctic talon]

because those almost always need more time and debugging

[winged jacinth]

the people with cycle records will have a thousand parts and manually time out all of the products needed to win instead of looping lol

efficiency is
A: hard
B: perpetually less and less important

[arctic talon]

also making something fast doesn't always mean its efficent

[crystal forum]

not to mention jobs grade you on lines of code added right?

[arctic talon]

I can make some code fast as fuck but it'll make a PC explode

[crystal forum]

such a stupid fucking metric

[arctic talon]

only if its a shit job

lmao

[winged jacinth]

well its cycle efficient

[arctic talon]

Yeah

well I think my laptop fan agrees with you

[crystal forum]

literally adding less code should be better

[arctic talon]

considering it'll go at mach fuck

[crystal forum]

adding more lines is just inefficient

[winged jacinth]

often inversely correlated with memory efficient, etc

[arctic talon]

when I'm doing some goofy shit to try to make something

go zoom

[rocky gale]

One of our processes isn't written down or recorded anywhere, I only know it because my coworker taught it to me and before then they were the only person who knew how to do it because the coworker who taught them retired.

[languid meadow]

LMFAO

[winged jacinth]

"lines" is such a weird metric because it's not actually a real unit of code but its useful anyway

[crystal forum]

you see a lot of that in smaller companies

[languid meadow]

I feel like people do it for job security

[crystal forum]

i tried fighting against it at one of my jobs by writing everything down

[languid meadow]

"you can't fire me because I'm the only person who knows how to do it" type shit

[crystal forum]

nah it's laziness

[winged jacinth]

i make sure to put brackets on their own lines to get 2 extra lines per code block

[crystal forum]

i can assure you it's not intentional

jobs will replace you even if you're the only thing keeping everything together

[winged jacinth]

i was trying to find the technical drawings for a plastic tray used to hold the components produced at one of my jobs and because it was drawn before the merger into a larger company nothing was noted down. one day i decided to open the drawers of old vacant cubicles and found the actual physical drawings and it was like finding the holy grail

[winged jacinth]

tbh if your company uses "lines" as a KPI for developers its a toxic one and management has never written a line of code lol

[crystal forum]

startup companies do the wackiest shit

[crystal forum]

i feel like elon musk made it popular

[winged jacinth]

a commit that adds NO lines is often critically important lol

[crystal forum]

i never heard it before he did that shit at twitter

elon musk is a my lawyers have advised me not to continue this comment

and a commit that has a net negative lines? thats something to be proud of

removing code is a positive yeah

even i know that

[winged jacinth]

(in the sense of lines as functional statements)

[arctic talon]

actually

you should keep all your old code as comments

seeing old people at my jobs just makes me sad. these people probably cant retire

[rocky gale]

Oh no he can retire, they want him to retire. He refuses because he thinks he'd get bored

it kept replacing y_max with max_y and then i would have to go track down where in my code it decided to add a bug

the one older auditor i have a class with is a good contributor but its a scientific literature class im taking for a credit category

[crystal forum]

it's like they think because they finished their life then nobody else's lives matter

Everyone hates him, he just refuses to leave and every time they've tried to fire him he's been able to claim age based discrimination

[solid horizon]

Blackmail this guy

Come at his house at night

[winged jacinth]

hes got really good questions because unlike a lot of the students he was taught to read properly lol

[solid horizon]

And smash his fingers with a bat if he doesn't cooperate

[winged jacinth]

THAT should be enough to fire anyone regardless of any protected class, which i dont think age even is one?

why cant this guy be fired lol

[arctic talon]

age is a protected class

in the US at least

[crystal forum]

the one guy im thinking of was an army vet who worked in intelligence as a coder or smth so he was cool but like he didnt give a single shit about the class and i was trying to get my grades lol

being discriminated against for being too young/too old

[rocky gale]

Incompetent HR department

is it a union job

[rocky gale]

No

[solid horizon]

a workplace union would not protect this guy because he's an active threat to other union members

The best is when you look over code and zero comments

I love finding out what goes to where

i am a staunch union advocate but older union members get away with shit they really shouldnt

[winged jacinth]

again, i had to DECOMPILE a guy's code to fix it

he also had an entire laravel PHP instance set up basically just to do a single CURL call once a day

[winged jacinth]

years ago i failed a class irrecoverably because i thought a paper due at noon was due at midnight lmao
the teacher was a piece of shit so
missed rough draft meant you couldnt do peer review which meant you couldnt do second draft which means you couldnt do final paper

C++ is only evil once you start using libraries really

stay away from boost

[crystal forum]

arduino is a great way to learn

[winged jacinth]

PHP is a bad language

[crystal forum]

because you can do hardware stuff too

and software is nothing without hardware

[vagrant fox]

But is it based

[crystal forum]

get yourself something called an ESP32 and use the arduino forums

[winged jacinth]

python and js are good learning languages in some ways but they allow for some bad habits in ways C++ wont tolerate like type coercion/automatic array bounding/garbage collection

[crystal forum]

a breadboard and some jumpers

[winged jacinth]

type coercion is simultaneously very powerful and deeply evil

[crystal forum]

some LED's

[arctic talon]

C++ is best to learn

lol

[jade holly]

OI WORK ON YOUR HOMEWORK 🗣️ 🔥

[crystal forum]

your first task will probably be to blink an LED

[winged jacinth]

yeah yeah

[crystal forum]

python is just easier C++

[jade holly]

BEGONE

[crystal forum]

it's easy to learn

once you know C

[rocky gale]

One of the near miss incidents he didn't turn on the cooling water for a boiling flask of Phosphoric acid and also had managed to kink the extractor pipe, so Nitrogen gas was being pumped into a flask of Phosphoric acid which was being heated with no cooling water and with no way for the steam to escape.

[winged jacinth]

if you're planning to do hardware or pro stuff learn C++ or C otherwise python is the king of "i need a program"

[rocky gale]

Thankfully it was caught by another member of staff before it fucking exploded due to the pressure

[winged jacinth]

ok going for real

[crystal forum]

i think every prospective coder should start with microcontrollers

[winged jacinth]

depends what their goal is i think

[crystal forum]

you need to understand what's really happening

[arctic talon]

actual bomb

[vagrant fox]

I'll have a gander why not

[winged jacinth]

a lot of people just need to automate math

and they learn python or R or something

R is weird ok going for real for real

[vagrant fox]

He's just roaming the premises like some bomb maniac?

[winged jacinth]

closing discord to save myself

[crystal forum]

discord is studying's number 1 enemy

[crystal forum]

people would complain about me to HR when i took safety measures more seriously than the guidelines

[rocky gale]

and most recently, he put protein tubes onto a heating mantle without attaching the extractors and filled the lab with sulphur trioxide gas

[crystal forum]

it's kinda pathetic

[vagrant fox]

That's been my problem trying to learn so far, I never learn why or for what reason

[crystal forum]

i'd wear a respirator while using the resin 3d printer at work and they'd tell my boss i scare them

[arctic talon]

wtf

[jade holly]

C++ is the big language, SQL is great for databases, HTML/PHP/Ajax/Java are all great in web design

Python is the ‘ol reliable

[crystal forum]

EXACTLY man thats what i had difficulty with at first too. if you have the hardware right in front of you and say you're given the task to blink and LED it becomes so much more intuitive

[jade holly]

Javafx is just fucking weird

[crystal forum]

C++ is the old one here

thing is older than dirt

[jade holly]

Old but gold

can’t fix what ain’t broke

[crystal forum]

i only used C++ so true

i'd use C if i could

i dont even need the +

[arctic talon]

I fucking hate it

[crystal forum]

man your health and safety person must be going crazy

[rocky gale]

Hopefully this is the last straw, he's been reported yet again

[crystal forum]

thats a lawsuit waiting to happen

if somebody gets hurt

[rocky gale]

We don't have one anymore, they left like 6 months ago and never replaced them.

[crystal forum]

yeah that company is 1 bad day away from being sued

[vagrant fox]

Do you work in the industrial accident lab or something

[crystal forum]

the chemical explosion plant where they make explosions

[rocky gale]

[vagrant fox]

These ESP32s aren't so expensive, truly nerd shit tho

I think I played with some of these in technical school and soldered my finger actually

[crystal forum]

they've been around for a while now yeah

they were new when i started college in 2018

[rocky gale]

There was also a whole thing where one of the reagents we work with is a controlled substance and is supposed to be closely logged and have it's usage monitored because the police could spot check at any time. But no one knew and hadn't been doing so for years because the person who'd been doing that retired and didn't tell anyone about it.

Our lab is so shit, I love it

[crystal forum]

controlled substances are bullshit anyways

i think pure ethanol is a controlled substance

purely for tax reasons

everything is a precursor chemical

[rocky gale]

Can't remember which one it was because it's not one I work with but I think it can be used to make a dirty bomb

and since we're in a part of the world known for making bombs

[crystal forum]

like a nuclear bomb?

[rocky gale]

No not a nuclear bomb

[crystal forum]

thats what dirty bomb means

[rocky gale]

Oh well it would cause cancer, but it wouldn't be nuclear

[crystal forum]

many things can be used as bombs

you could make flour into a bomb

[jade holly]

Bath bomb

[rocky gale]

Dirty bomb just felt like the appropriate name for a bomb which gives people cancer

[celest dome]

Dirty bombs are basically what happen when you take a grende and replace the shrapnel with radioactive material

[rose thorn]

Oh I thought we were talking about the game

[arctic talon]

tbf

pretty sure a dirty bomb goes off in that

lol

[celest dome]

Which game ?

[flat nimbus]

stinky bomb

[rocky gale]

You're not going to believe this

But I think they might be talking about Darktide

[flat nimbus]

dirty bomb vs unwashed bomb

[celest dome]

Chem bombs

Sure

Dirty Bombs

eh

not really

[rose thorn]

Dirty bomb

No special boxes that demand my immediate attention

The bottom one is just the average British person

Fucked up teeth, knife ready to shank, frowning face

All he needs is some alcohol

[languid meadow]

The new colour scheme looks so much better

[vagrant fox]

Statistically the British have better dental hygiene than yankees ☝️ 🤓

[sharp pollen]

what if invincible was british....

[rocky gale]

Americans like to think they have better teeth than everyone else but really they just bleach them and file them down into little squares

[heady rivet]

Flouride...

[rancid cove]

Americans like to think they have better everything but really they just buy it from everyone else and claim its theirs

[rocky gale]

Like why the hell are their canine teeth flat, that ain't right

Literally fangless

[jade holly]

Mine are because I grinded my teeth a lot when I was younger

[rocky gale]

I've heard that American dentists will file down canines just as like force of habit, sometimes without even asking patients

[jade holly]

That is something I’ve never heard before

[rocky gale]

They'll go under for another procedure and basically go "While we're here, may as well"

[jade holly]

Yeah I’ve never heard that before

[rocky gale]

Apparently it's a common thing that Orthodontists do with people who have braces, they'll just do it to make the teeth appear more even

[vagrant fox]

Yeah you can find a billion examples of that if you search a bit

[celest dome]

Sad, strong canines can be somewhat cute

[jade holly]

Found the Space Wolf fan

[sacred ginkgo]

I've still got canines

[vagrant fox]

Canine teeth are the best ones ok

[rocky gale]

Better for ripping out throats

[sacred ginkgo]

Never heard of filing them

[jade holly]

I’m watching a guy kitbash the new Defiler into Perturabo

[vagrant fox]

I've also read about people getting wholeass vampire teeth implanted so ig

[celest dome]

I am offended

I do not partake in any SM things

Forgot who had the Wolfworm in their head the other day.
They devolved into just going Wolf Wolf Wolf.

[jade holly]

Yep that’s the video

[jade holly]

Well now I know he’s a legend

[rocky gale]

He's Mr Kitbash

[jade holly]

I am so ready to preorder Perty when his model gets revealed

[solid horizon]

Tbh it fits more as an IW prince

or as a fancy IW kytan

[rocky gale]

Yea, great IW Prince but not enough oomph to the Pert
