this old take is rattling around in my brain again.

Everyone goes on about "elite overproduction," but the basic reality of our system is that elites have given up on reproducing themselves. Our geriatric governing class is one symptom of that. There's no future for them, other than holding on to power until they die.

I've said this before, but the twenty-first century is nothing more than the longest clearance sale in history. The "new" has been completely dematerialized while our material past--the infrastructure our society runs on--is being stripped for parts by these people.

Well, instead of pushing up prices for consumers, I've got a better idea. Stop paying out huge bonuses for executives who do fuck all and cancel all those dividends to parasitical shareholders.

Pleased for how these have come out for the work that's gone into them. The clothing and webbing is all simply primer, Speedpaint, drybrush and an all-over wash once the other details are done. Mooks in Minutes. The @wargamesatlantic.bsky.social Operators kit is a superb wee box of plastic.

Even if you told me every frame was hand drawn by a monk on Lindisfarne that video would still be so tiresome.

There is at this point no comment, demand, or petty gripe I find more tiresome than this old chestnut. That's even going up against 'HURR HURR ULTRASMURFS,' so you know I'm done with it.
