You know what? I love Notorious. It's a game about bounty hunters doing bounty hunter stuff. Get ready to learn Desert Planet, buddy.

No shade to any of the Vertigo relaunch writers, but this is what the lineup looks like with me no longer in it, lol.

same excact sentiment as when 30 yr old streamers who only play call of duty say modern video games are boring lmao

People on r/fantasy keep asking “Why is modern fantasy all so UNORIGINAL and BORING,” and I immediately assume they must not be reading, say, N.K. Jemisin or Vajra Chandrasekera or Simon Jimenez or Premee Mohamed or anything published by Neon Hemlock, and frankly that sounds like a them problem.

For the record, this is presented as a Completely Bad Thing.

It's been a bit since I played, but in Night Roads the vampires are running a concentration for migrants in the American Southwest. It is an extremely unstable situation reliant on a combination of infiltrating ICE/BP and, if I remember correctly, border militias.

You know what was REALLY massively unpopular in the United States? Gay marriage. So much so, multiple organizations had to blackmail HRC into coming around on it. But see, the "G" in LGBTQ includes a lot of cis white men...and when they want something nothing will stop them

I’m probably the only person in this thread who genuinely sees and can (somewhat) empathize where you’re coming from mate. I get it, trans rights are MASSIVELY unpopular in the United States and Democrats are losing truly staggering amounts of power because of their support of them. I just

John Fetterman represents an incredibly important and underserved demographic. Future family annihilators have long been ignored by those in power. That ends now.

OK. Last time.
A D&D Stirge detaches after draining 10 HP of blood. Therefore HP are a measurable unit of blood (I estimate 200ml per HP).

Characters with high HP might have hundreds of liters contained in their bodies at high pressure. Even light nicks tend to spray anime-style.

The Biden regime's attacks and suppression of campus protests opposing the ongoing Israeli genocide of Palestinians laid the groundwork for Trump's own attacks on universities a year later. It is a straight line from Point A to Point B.

Extremely funny that a document that begins with a land acknowledgement has a long section about how much the party supports Rhodesia and all the actions it will take to continue propping it up.

Remember: These are not MAGA stormtroopers. These are everyday teachers and accountants who signed up to serve their country with their spare time. They're being used as political pawns by venal, un-American, draft-dodging president
