My Debut novel, The Exile, is out on Amazon now! Check out a thrilling, gritty science fiction adventure! Link below:
ALT "How far will you go to outrun your past? Tsi has survived warzones, back-alley brawls, and the slow grind of dying worlds. She’s traded names as often as knives, drifting across the ruins at the edge of the universe. On Inheritor’s World, the rules are simple: trust no one, keep moving, and never look up at the stars for too long. But when the sky itself turns against her—a cosmic event that sets rival clans and old ghosts in motion—Tsi is forced to gamble everything on a fragile alliance: a wounded crew, debts she can’t pay, and Strongmind, her enigmatic AI companion whose loyalty might be the only thing she can trust. The stronghold domes offer no sanctuary, only new dangers and deadlier betrayals. As the Dreaming Stars shift and the frontier burns, Tsi and Strongmind must outlast their enemies, outwit their allies, and find the one thing even exile can’t strip away—something worth bleeding for. The Exile is a brutal journey through shattered worlds and broken loyalties—a story of s

A funny thing for Terry Prachett to say. I guess I shouldn't read Terry Prachett? Or did he exempt himself, like, "everyone else in my genre sucks except me". Or I should only read Terry Prachett if I am not trying to write fantasy?

Hah! Its comedy and a good way to ensure Jedi mind tricks aren't a fix-all by establishing certain species are too biologically different for them to work.

You can tell there are a lot of characters that CDPR wanted to explore but didn’t have the time and T-bug is by far the biggest victim of that

No. Morn's got this. If anyone can talk Sisko down from a shooting engagement, it's Morn.

Neelix also survived in a Mad Max wasteland for years & showed he could handle brutal warlords. He softened up when he got to be around people who weren't trying to murder him for a gallon of water.

🇺🇸 The Combat Section of the U.S. Army’s Signal Pigeon Company during World War II. Yes, my wife told me I had to depict it in this manner. Although this bit works a lot better on IG where there are 6 pages of pigeons going to Freebird

one of my favorite parts of Trek (TNG was especially good at it) is that people rarely lied to each other for no reason and there was an clear baseline trust among the crew. someone said they have a weird space worm eating their dreams? let’s believe them and see how we can help
Something I’ll always appreciate about this series is even in the moments of levity, it’s a show about adults living dignified and full lives in companionship with each other. The TNG crew always made adulthood look so cool and fun, a place to continue your passions…which it is!

Leal Quentyn would have been a better advisor than ANY of her pedophile advisors and Martin knew it so he had to make him ugly so 15 year old Dany would laugh at him

A few people said this on insta, but the Dark Angels really *were* native American originally. Oh you bet your ass I'm incorporating this in my artwork

"You know what l'd really like?"
"Tell me."
"A Batman Beyond comic."
"We can do a Batman Beyond comic."
"A real BB comic, no Tim, no Blight resurrection, more than six issues."
"I'll make you a very traditional BB comic.
neo-gothic setting, Bruce in the earpiece, saving the day."

Not sure where *this* weird revisionism is coming from. Most people said and thought they were bad. They are!
As an older millennial that was a teenager for these movies, I do not remember anybody saying the prequels sucked at the time.
That was social media revisionism by nerdy edgelords on social media 10 years later.
Episode I is a masterpiece (and Empire is still my favorite)

River genuinely has one of the more interesting and disturbing quests in the game with the farm stuff and they fuck it all up with his dog shit romance

I think Terry works because they
1) didn't make Batman less capable to make room for a new guy, he grew old
2) Bruce is his mentor/handler
3) Terry isn't just instantly great, he's flawed & has to improve
4) It's far enough in the future for him to have his own rogues gallery
Cap thing got me wondering.
Has there ever been a superhero passing the mantle that was universally well received?
Peter -> Ben & Miles as Spider-Man has been bumpy. Steve -> Sam as Cap too.
I think Terry as Batman is the only one everyone liked. Idk why though.

Guys I'm lazy and I need to get a decent quest hook for a Halloween DnD oneshot. Any advice?

This had me thinking:
It is relatively easy to design characters (both imagery and narrative roles) of the 7 deadly sins. But making the 7 cardinal virtues into fantastical characters feels harder to me. How would one go about that?
What's "Chastity" doing as a character?

Geth were explained to be a splinter group. True Geth are treated with a lot of sympathy. Rachni were expanded upon as victims of Leviathan manipulation. Krogans were seen as victims of a horrific war crime. The only ones not rehabilitated were Batarians, which I will give you.
Mass Effect is a reflection of post-9/11 banal liberalism, where multiculturalism is boasted and war is virtue-signaled against, but as always there are certain ethnicities who are inferior and thus oppression/war against is justified (Geth, Batarians, Rachni, Krogan)
