Part 1 of making Cataphractii assault terminators: Prototype shield arm

I got the Vanguard Veteran squad for the weapons. I wanted to attach the shield to either a chainfist or powerfist arm. Keeping the hand on the shield would have required extensive resculpting of the arm, so I decided against it.

After clipping and sanding the hand on the shield away I had two options:

I decided on the chainfist, because the power fist still looked to power fisty with the shield. I used some greenstuff for a better fit and trimmed the outside of the armor a bit. The chainsaw part was also removed for obvious reasons. To cover up the blank space I glued some 1mm wire into it and made an entry point on the inside of the shield with a little blob of green stuff. In the end I got this

I am quite happy with the resutls. It took a bit over an hour but the process should be optimizable and included the descicion making.

The main problem for the next 3 will probably be the repeatability of the shield placement. I have tried to solve this by keeping she shield under the leathery bits from the shoulder but I'll have to see how this works with differing poses.

I would be happy about some more tipps or ideas

Chapter Master Olympia Vilaris

The current leader of the Hounds of Terra, Olympia assumed this post after the internment of the chapter founder in a dreadnought sarcophagus following an ambush by traitor forces and the fall of the forgeworld of Potassiar. She is a measured tactician, often found fortifying the chapter's position, or else rallying the core of offenses in which she finds herself deployed. Her bolt rifle is of her own construction, incorporating wood from the world of Coria which the chapter was born upon. Her thunderhammer is a masterwork forged by the chapter's master of the forge after she noted a power sword was not gaudy enough.

Day 7: Dreadnought armor

Today I continued with my repatriation of my space marines. This project was the assault terminators and my blood angel dread. Thunderhammer terminators are one of my favorite units in 10th edition. A big brick of 10 with an infiltrating captain is a fun problem for your opponent to deal with. The librarian dread is also fun. He gets to "da jump" a space marine unit somewhere outside of 9 of an enemy unit.

Seeing these guys out on the table really gives my brain all the good chemicals. It reminds me of playing dawn of war II. I loved loading everyone up in terminator armor and slamming into the enemies of man. Good times...

I cant wait to hit a table again.

Help ;-;

I know I don't use this platform much. I haven't done so for... the better part of two years now.

But I am hoping and praying that maybe this reaches the right people today. I am in serious trouble. Financially.

Long story short, I went through an SA experience. This resulted in my getting sick, which impacted my ability to work... which later resulted in my termination from employment. I don't really know what to do or where to go from here. I'm applying for jobs left, right and centre and attending as many interviews as physically possible, but I'm at the point where I won't even be able to afford rent next fortnight.

Basically, I guess I'm just... hoping that someone, anyone, can help me out. Even just a little bit. I've got a link to a fundraiser I'm attempting, but even if people aren't able to help me out by donating I would be forever grateful if someone could spread the word or share my link.

Thanks for listening, everyone. Really.

Lycaon Squad is finished and ready to rend flesh and metal alike.

I think painting five at a time might be my limit, I think for the next squad I'll try three at a time. Easier on my energy and my back.

But I'm super pleased with how these turned out, especially since Relic Terminators aren't street legal in 40k and there's no reference for them in Iron Snakes colors.

[deusvervewrites]

aight so i mustered the courage and...

I did it lol.

Anyway...

Yakuza Inko x HPSC President: this is very interesting ngl.

Expelled x Terminated Contract: an expectable result.

Elementalist: can a single blind girl with an earth quirk that has a form of seismic sense exist? just asking for a friend.

Musketeer: what would be the next crazy thing that would happen to Midoriya?

My Super Robot Academia: "Quirked Animals have posed an existential threat to humanity since the Dawn of Quirks. Instead of Heroes, society is protected by mecha pilots, using frames that imitate their pilots’ Quirk" wait wait wait wait, what about Nedzu? and are the animals fucking sentient or something? as how are they a threat if they're not sentient?

Dud Explosive x Red Flag x Mustafa Private Middle School: (the only reason aizawa would investigate is that he found out that midoriya USED to go aldera) solidarity from Kirishima and Ashido with Izuku is something nice ngl and i like to see a competent aizawa lol

League Saves Eri: this AU makes me... feel a tad bit... bitter? angry? the only time i'd maybe like this one is when a main character (I.E. Izuku) is a villain but... it's just... conflicting with... certain things.

Eri’s Precepts x Eri Escapes: this could not work due to the fact that Eri's powerplay would be many years after izuku's junior high years but.... when Eri can begin to plan taking back Shie Hassaikai into her grandfather's hands, she manages to convince izuku to help with the plan despite izuku wanting to be a hero or is a pro hero already, he can't really refuse a favor from family so he ends up helping and ends up getting into good terms with The Boss because of his involvement and would prioritize helping him if he needed a favor.

Villain Assault: i feel like this deserves some more love ngl. what would be the next step after sending people to take down Shigaraki?

Ooooooooh

Yakuza Inko x HPSC President: Midoriya certainly has options available to him now

Expelled x Terminated Contract: It would have to be after the end of terms exams, considering

Elementalist: This isn't even really tied to Elementalist, but the answer is that it would depend on this hypothetical blind bandit's Quirk.

Musketeer: Probably whenever he gets involved in the MLA and ends up having to steal way more Quirks than he ever thought he would

My Super Robot Academia: It is the fact that they aren't sentient that causes the problems. Imagine a normal animal with a gigantification Quirk if it panicked in a city center. Imagine a stray animal that sneezes fireballs.

Dud Explosive x Red Flag x Mustafa Private Middle School: He'd get to have a pretty good time all things considered

Eri’s Precepts x Eri Escapes: Eri out to steal back her birthright is certainly something

Villain Assault: Dismantling the rest of the PLF piece by piece

I finally received my employers position statement…

Normally they only have a month maybe two to provide a position statement. It has been six months LATER. I haven’t had the heart to read it. I know it will be filled with gaslighting and lies and it will reopen old wounds I’ve spent months trying to medicate. I hate reliving my repeated sexual assault and how powerless I felt against it. Knowing that poverty and homelessness would be on the horizon if I said anything. When I finally tried to speak up I was dismissed and ignored and ultimately terminated in such a humiliating way. Only to be thrusted into this type of job economy where it is difficult to find work. I have been struggling financially ever since I don’t deserve that. I never deserved any of it

Direct Aid:

PP: enyasaints@gmail.com

For those that don’t know. A position statement is a company response basically refuting all charges they recieved through the EEOC. You have to provide a rebuttal proving that the company was lying. It is incredibly traumatic having to prove wrong doing. Having to relive the awful things that happened to you. While trying to raise money for a lawyer to defend you.

I have taken time off crowdfunding because I’m easily discouraged and I was barely gaining traction. No matter what I do I have no reach, and I have tried EVERYTHING. I truly have. I tried livestreaming on three different platforms, I tried making TikToks, I tried tweeting, I tried begging rich people on twitter, nothing works. I cannot stress enough I cannot do this alone. I don’t have a social media prescence nor social media capital. I am trying to have one but it’s incredibly difficult to build quickly. I cannot raise this money if I don’t have people advocating for me. Even if you can’t donate. Posting my link in a company email, on your facebook, tiktok, reddit anywhere makes a world of a difference. Using your skills to promote my GFM. If you draw or make edits that also can help. Anything can help me. Scrolling past just kills me. So please. PLEASE. Do something. Even if its just interacting on this very post. Commenting, sharing, liking. PLEASE. If I don’t raise emough for a lawyer, when I get the letter of right to sue, it gives me 90 days to find a lawyer. If I don’t my case gets thrown out and I never get justice. I can never sue them again.

Deadline for Lawyer:

August 17th, 2024

Currently Raised:

$410/$15000

So in the downtime I also did some space marines too!

For starters, I painted up some terminator characters. The fancy chaplain tarentus and a print of Calisterius from the space hulk board game. I used mostly contrast on these dudes, but they came out pretty good.

Then I got a hold of the new Commander Dante!

To prep for a tourney I sped paint some sanguinary guard and terminators.

And I also for a hold of some recast crimson paladins. Man these guys are grear, but their swords and so wonky.

There are a few other projects that I dont have photos for at this moment that will be in a future post.

[i-am-aprl]

The moment when Israeli occupation troops raided the mourning tents of Palestinian novelist Walid Daqqa, assaulting and arresting the mourners.

Daqqa, who had cancer and spent 35 years in Israeli jails, died yesterday due to Israel’s deliberate medical negligence. Israel had refused to allow his wife and daughter to visit him since October 7, while knowing he was in a terminal state.

Finding out it's incredibly likely that Relic Terminators and the Contemptor Dreadnought are getting removed from the codex and added to Legends

[newsfromstolenland]

In one private chat group conversation, a Mountie was accused of saying a new female employee "was overweight and insinuating that the shape of her vagina was visible through her clothing."

In another, a second RCMP officer allegedly bragged about "Tasering unarmed Black people" and called a sexual assault investigation "stupid" — drawing comments from other members of the online group who "made fun of the victim" and said, "she's a dumb Mexican c--t."

An investigator with the RCMP's professional standards unit detailed those allegations and many more in a search warrant sworn to obtain evidence now being used to call for the firing of three Coquitlam Mounties for violating the force's code of conduct.

The CBC has obtained a copy of the search warrant — which recounts behaviour which led the officer who sparked the investigation to complain to RCMP brass about what he saw as "atrocious" and "racist and horrible" activity in a private group operating on the Signal messaging app.

Full article

Tagging: @allthecanadianpolitics

More from this article below the cut, because I think it's important to understand just how much fucked up shit they were saying:

(tw misogyny, domestic violence, racial profiling, anti-Indigenous racism, racism)

The documents reveal that investigators also reviewed 600,000 messages posted to the RCMP's internal mobile data chat logs — finding evidence of "frequently offensive" usage by the three officers facing termination of "homophobic and racist slurs."

"The reviewers had identified a variety of comments that were 'chauvinist in nature, with a strong air of superiority, and include flippant or insulting remarks about clients (including objectifying women), supervisors, colleagues, policy and the RCMP as a whole,'" the warrant says.

Code of conduct hearings against Const. Philip Dick, Const. Ian Solven and Const. Mersad Mesbah had been slated to begin in Surrey this week but have been adjourned until March of next year. All three officers have been suspended since June 2021.

Although Dick, Solven and Mesbah appear to be the only Mounties currently facing code-of-conduct hearings, the court documents say seven other officers were also part of the private chat group — including two supervisors.

Among the details contained in the search warrant are allegations one of the officers facing discipline joked about a domestic violence victim, calling the victim "a dumb f--king bitch, should've worn a mouth guard."

The whistleblower — Const. Sam Sodhi — claimed that outside of the private chat group, members of the group also "belittled Indigenous people, talking about how they were 'stupid' or 'drunk' and saying they have 'unfortunate bodies' and all have fetal alcohol syndrome."

"They would say, 'We're not going to the reserve,'" the search warrant claims Sodhi told investigators.

"We're not going there because we're not going to help those people."

According to the court documents, Sodhi was posted to Coquitlam in 2019.

"As part of that process, he wrote a letter about wanting to work in an urban centre and help at-risk youth that didn't have role models," the warrant claims.

But Sodhi claimed that on his second day at work, Dick — his trainer — asked him: "Are you a cool brown guy, or are you a Surrey brown guy? Because in that letter, you're whiny, like, 'Ooh, I want to help brown people.'"

Sodhi claimed there were two chat groups for members of the Coquitlam detachment assigned to Port Coquitlam — one for all members of the watch and a second private group that began on WhatsApp but then moved to Signal. He said he was told once he was "worthy" of the private chat group, "we'll add you to it."

The officer claimed he was admitted to the private chat group in March 2021 but left after a few days because of the "constant negativity." He said he was then accused of "not being a team member" and encouraged to return.

According to the search warrant, Sodhi complained to his superiors in May 2021, and a chief superintendent mandated an investigation into five Mounties — including a corporal who was accused of failing to take measures to prevent misconduct.

The probe initially focused on text communications between the RCMP's own laptops — known as Mobile Data Terminals. Investigators reviewed messages between the five men from January 2019 until May 2021.

"When members of the [Signal] chat group realized there was an investigation, they opined that the investigation was probably about 'MDT chats' ... since the private chat group was kept 'amongst the trusted' and 'there's no way this got out,'" the warrant says.

Examples cited from the RCMP computers include statements like, "Why do brown guys have unusually high pitched voices." "As an idiot woman would say ... 'toxic,'" and, "I just racially profile pulled over a car."

A review of the chat logs also allegedly found the three officers facing termination "appeared to use 'goldfish' as a slur for Asian people."

"For example, they talked about how 'goldfish' have 'bulging eyes' that 'can't see anything,' how a Korean church in the detachment was a 'goldfish church' and how 'goldfish' were bad drivers (a common Asian stereotype)," the warrant says.

Daddy issues

After your dad is arrested, you try and beg for his job back. But Rafe Cameron decides another way for you to help your father. And his arrangement is different than you imagine.

Warnings! Daddy kink! Talks of violence! Slight reference to abuse! Choking! Blow job! Rough unprotected sex! Breeding kink! Virginity loss! Dirty talk!

You didnt know if you were more angry or surprised when you got the call from the officer that your dad was arrested and currently in jail for assault. You were finished working your late shift at the restaurant when your phone rang.

You screamed in your car on the way to the station. Your dad was a dead beat. An asshole who didn’t know how to fucking control his temper. Daddy dearest also liked to get loud with you, throw things when he didn’t get his way and one time he slapped you in the face.

You slapped him back and threatened to slash his tires. But the threat was empty considering he needed to work, which you had no idea how he kept his job at the docks while working for Rafe Cameron. It used to be his father Ward until his suicide. You’d met him often while picking your dad up, given you had to share a car.

He was…polite you could say. But he was also scary. He glared at everyone and he was short tempered. You usually heard him snapping or yelling if something wasn’t done right. Your dad complained about how strict he was.

But his status and wealth made everyone obey him and intimidated you. His attractiveness however was on another level. His height made you feel small and his blue eyes cut through people.

You slammed the door at the station and went to the desk. After signing in, you tapped your foot impatiently as an officer came up to you.

“Are you…?”

“My dad is here. He just got arrested.” You ground out. You hated being here. She nodded and looked at paperwork in front of her.

“Are you here to post bail?”

“I’m here to see if there’s any way we can clear this up as a misunderstanding.” You tried to plead but she shook her head.

“Ma’am, he attacked a man at a stoplight. He beat him up to the point he lost one of his teeth.”

You pressed your head against your hand. Jesus Christ it was worse than you thought. “How much is bail?”

She looked again at the paperwork. “Looks like we’re at 6,000 dollars.”

“What? I thought the bail was lower than that!” You shrieked.

“Ma’am. He also had multiple charges. Public intoxication, disturbance and assault. He caused a lot of trouble. I suggest you alert his job tomorrow. But until then, he’s going to spend at least 60 days in jail.”

You started crying. You couldn’t help it. It hurt so much. You couldn’t get a break. And now you’d have to face Rafe Cameron and face the humiliation of your dad being in jail.

You cried on and off the next day as you had to switch your schedule to the evening and make the phone call to your dads manager about his current situation. It was immediate termination and you broke down even harder in your bedroom. You refused to take his phone call, afraid you’d explode on him.

As you got ready for another dreaded work shift, your phone started ringing to a number you didn’t recognize. Hesitantly, you answered.

“Hello?”

“Your dads in jail, huh?” You immediately froze. It was Rafe’s voice. How did he-well he was capable of finding anything out.

“I-um. Yes. And he can’t work for you anymore. But if you’ll please reconsider. I know he’s a piece of shit but this is the only job he’s lasted out and we desperately need the money. I’m trying to get a car and we have to share one. I know this is probably pointless but I can’t help but try. So please, please take him back.” More tears came and you felt like a total cry baby but you pushed through.

You expected him to laugh but instead silence met you.

You bit your lip hard enough it bled.

“Meet me at my house. I’ll text you the address. I have a proposition for you.”

“Why can’t you tell me over the phone?” Your stomach tightened.

“Do you want me to help you or not?”

“Yes. Of course. I’ll be there.”

“Good girl.”

You set the phone down but seconds later his address came through in a text and your breath stopped short. He wanted to see you after work.

Five minutes before closing and after you finished cleaning, the drive to Rafe’s house wasn’t that far and now you knocked on his door. When he answered, you tried not to reveal how much you found him attractive. His hair was in his face and his eyes were glazed as he looked down at you. His fingers twitched and you imagined what he was doing with that hand…

Rafe gestured with his head for you to come in and you followed him inside the massive penthouse. He had everything you imagined. Expensive furniture, floors and lights.

You followed him to the kitchen where he pointed to the bar stool. “Have a seat.” He muttered.

You obeyed and watched as he circled the island in the center of the room. “So. You wanna save your dads job?”

“Yes. I’m willing to do anything-“ You stopped short when a smirk fell on his face.

“Anything?” Rafe challenged. “It looked like you hated him whenever I saw you talk to him.”

“It’s complicated.” You replied and his smirk grew into a cruel smile.

“Looks like someone has daddy issues.” Rafe countered and you crossed your arms.

“I-well when you put it that way-“

“I’m just bringing up what you’re telling me. Your dad beats the shit out of someone. He went to jail-and now you’re doing anything you can to fix it. Tell me if I missed anything.” Rafe’s voice was low and you hated that he was right.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to sound pushy. I’m just in a tight spot.”

“Oh I’m sure you’re in a…tight spot.” His meaning was clear and you swallowed.

That was the exchange.

“Look at you. Being a little smart girl and figuring it out. I’m gonna get to the point. You want me to take him back? Bail him out? I get to fuck you. Anywhere. Anytime. And anyplace I want. No condoms. No hidden birth control. No. I wanna see my cum leak out of that desperate pussy.”

Your mouth opened and closed. “I can’t just fuck a stranger. And no birth control? I can’t fucking get pregnant.”

“I’m a selfish whore, baby. And I can afford one. And those are my terms. Either that. Or your dad rots.”

You bit your lip. You weren’t in a position to say no. You needed the money. And Rafe was hot. There were worse guys. Rafe got closer, his big hands reaching to cup the side of your neck.

“Yeah? You want it?”

Slowly, you nodded.

Rafe crooked a finger, signaling you to come closer. You stepped down and approached him gingerly and looked into his gaze. Rafe then latched his hand around your throat. His grip was so strong your feet almost lifted in the air and your eyes widened as he crushed his lips to yours.

His lips devoured you as he shoved his tongue into your mouth. You weren’t experienced. Sure, you’d touched yourself and made out with people.

But actual fucking? You’d never done that. And you knew that was about to change.

“You want me to take care of you, don’t you?” Rafe loosened his hold on your neck and pressed you against the island counter, “need someone to be your daddy?”

Your hands flew to his chest as you brought him impossibly closer, his lips sucked your skin with bruising force. You opened your mouth as he slipped his fingers inside.

“Suck.” He commanded and you listened. Spit gathering on your lips as he kneed your legs apart and lifted you up on the counter.

“Need daddy to help you? Fill you up with my cum?” His dirty words made your cunt twitch as he started toying the end of your skirt. Your thighs dampened as he trailed his thick fingers along your flesh, his fingers grazing the wet patch of your underwear.

You started grinding to give any friction against your arousal as he apparently changed his mind and threw you to the ground by underneath your arms. Rafe gestured to the crotch of his pants. “Consider this your first payment, baby. You ever done this before?”

You shakily remained silent as he huffed an amused laugh.

“Really? A girl who’s such a perv that she’s willing to fuck someone giving her money? Never would have guessed. I guess I’ll be nice and help you.”

Rafe undressed his lower half, his cock leaked with precum and he took your hand. “Swipe it with your thumb, get it all wet.” His massive hand compared to yours was almost comical as he grabbed the back of your head.

“Open your mouth, princess. And remember to breathe through your nose.”

After that, he silenced whatever worries you had by shoving his dick forward. You run your tongue along the thick underside, lessening some of the heavy weight by massaging with your hand. You took the tip through your mouth, shoving down any nerves as you sucked. Rafe bobbed your head up and down as he pushed you further, your head bouncing as your eyes squeezed shut.

“No, no, open your slutty eyes and look at me.” He growled. He leaned over the arch of the space between the counter and where you sank on your knees. The skin of his cock was supple as you continued aiding with your hand. It was hot to the touch.

“Good fucking girl. Maybe I’ll reward you by fucking your pussy.” He started thrusting and hitting the back of your throat. “Breathe. Breathe through your nose.” He wiped a few tears away with his thumb as you listened to him.

You knew he was getting closer as he stopped talking, his breathing heavier as he moved your head. His cum spilled inside your mouth, as he released you and you coughed.

“Not bad for your first time. We’re gonna practice some more.” Rafe smirked as his face was flushed and his fist flexed.

He moved on top of you on the floor, hiking up your skirt and ripping off your panties. He spread apart your wet cunt and dipped his middle finger inside your clenching entrance. “You’re such a whore. Never done any of this and you’re already gonna cum. Should have known you’d be daddy’s cum slut.”

Rafe yanked your legs apart, and spit on your pussy. “Not that it needed it, but I’m gonna be a little more kind to you.” You shrieked as he grabbed your jaw.

“Are you on birth control?”

“No.” You quickly answered. “Never-never needed-“

“Good. And you’re not going to. Got it?” Rafe moaned as he pushed his tip in your pussy, “fuck you’re so tight.”

You winced from discomfort but then his knuckles hit your clit, aiding to relieve your tension as he circled them. “Gonna make you mine. Take you away from all that shit.” He grunted as he pushed further.

Rafe let you wrap your arms around his neck as he thrusted.

“Tell daddy you like it.”

“I like it.” You sobbed as he moved harder. “I like it, daddy.”

It was slightly shameful how quickly you came all over him and spilled onto your legs. Rafe also came again and you felt it inside you. He was serious about no protection.

He stayed for a few seconds before getting up. And pulling his pants back on. He extended his hand and pulled you up. You knew you were a sight to be seen, fucked out eyes and messy hair. You just lost your virginity to Rafe Cameron.

You cleared your throat and watched him sweep his eyes over your face. “So. My dad?”

He shrugged. “He’s already out.”

You paled. “What?”

“I posted bail a few minutes before you got here. But as for his job, you’re gonna have to work harder than that. I have conditions.”

“But I already said-“

“More than just fucking you, baby girl. I own you now. You are mine and no one gets to even think about fucking you. I will cross any line you make to keep me away. And if you try, I will punish you.”

“I didn’t do anything wrong.” You whimpered as he loomed over you.

“And?” He mocked. “You already agreed. You need me. Don’t you?” He cupped your jaw. Tightly but not as harsh.

“Yeah.” You leaned in to his touch. Your defenses are completely down. You needed care. You were always working. Always cleaning up after someone’s mess. And now…he was going to take care of you.

And either make your daddy issues better.

Or worse.

This is your formal invite to info dump about your figure skating horror murder mystery (I want to know more lol)

okay it's still a very vague outline but the premise is that a disgraced ex-figure skater whose suffered a career-ending injury as a result of sabotage by her fellow skaters becomes a suspect for murder several years later when skaters - several of whom are connected to her past - start turning up dead, apparently at the hands of a serial killer. while her career was already terminated, the catalyst for her fall from grace was when she assaulted one of her former teammates, who was involved in the sabotage, making her a prime suspect, since she has both apparent motive and a history of violence. the few people left around her who she hasn't alienated since then are unhelpful - one of her parents (haven't decided which yet) is far more interested in capitalising on the media attention than defending their daughter, and the other is absent, any siblings she might have she's estranged from, and she has no friends - so she ends up reluctantly teaming up with a trashy small-time tabloid journalist of the worst sort of kind; a person who's in it for the potential of finally landing that big scoop, but who is perhaps the only one who doesn't seem to care whether she's guilty or innocent. while initially incredible hostile, their working relationship begins to grow into something almost like caring for one another as they uncover more information about the case and learn more about each other, and the turning points in their lives where they lost their way. however, the killer begins targeting them too, trying to convince them that the other is out to get them and that it would be in their best interests to break that tentative trust. it's not the most original premise, but perhaps i'll draw some of the characters at some point. selina and jules (the dreadful duo) have a fun dynamic.

[cevansgoodgirl]

I’m not gonna talk about Blake lively because everyone is doing it and there’s nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said.

But I will talk about Justin Baldoni. Justin Baldoni is probably one of the only men in the movie making industry that has ever put women first. Not for his own personal gain but to empower women. To tell their stories and experiences.

He did a TED talk years ago that I’ll never forget when the Me Too movement was happening. Where he talks about how women and statistics say it’s not a matter of “if” women being assaulted whether it be sexually, emotionally, physically happens, it’s a matter of “when”. He is a man who knows that women simply existing in this world have to live with this fear of this type of reality. He spoke up and it’s always stuck with me.

Not only that but the projects he’s been involved in? That he’s directed ? Never were about HIM. Or what he can do, what fucking brand he has or any shit like that. His stories he told were about the people directly inspired by them.

Five feet apart - Claire Wineland- dedicated and inspired by her. Brought awareness for cystic fibrosis. Still gives and bring awareness to the organization that helps people and families with this disease.



Clouds- zach sobiech’s story of a kid with terminal cancer diagnosis of osteosarcoma., who wanted to make music. Met Justin years before the movie and changed Justin’s life.

The man is bringing awareness to these things AND TOXIC MALE MASCULINITY!?!? The man enough podcast? The book? Where he talks about not only his experiences but is bringing awareness for MEN

God bless this man. Everything he does and works on speaks for itself. He is a selfless man who is telling different stories in the most real way possible. Not Sugar coating a DV movie about it being rainbows and lollipops and sunshine and to get your florals and go see the movie like it’s the fucking notebook.

He wanted it to be as real as possible. To the point where he literally feels sick or disgusted with the character he played because of how he had to ACT. The man is a god send.

YOU CAN NEVER MAKE ME HATE JUSTIN BALDONI
