IT’S ALL OVER...


...UNTIL JAN 07


2020 VS 40K


What’s more bleak – the world outside your window, or the grim darkness of the far future?


A global pandemic forces us
all to stay inside and listen to
burbling politicians.

A galactic pandemic
forces us to join the armies
of Nurgle and listen to
burbling daemons.

Fascism and authoritarian
thought rises inexorably
across the globe.

Fascism rose 25,000
years ago, but at least it has
cool spaceships.

You can rebel against the
status quo by retweeting an
article you didn’t read.

You can rebel against the
status quo by summoning
dark forces you cannot
comprehend.

Become numbed to fear
through overexposure to a 24


hours news cycle.

Become numbed to fear
because you’ve been turned
into a genetically-enhanced
super soldier.

You have to wear a mask
over your face just to go to
the shops.

You have to wear
a rebreather over your
face just to go outside
your hive-city.

Living with the existential
dread of knowing that things
are probably just going to
keep getting worse in 2021.

Eh, we’ll probably all
get eaten by Tyranids
tomorrow anyway.
