I'll tell you something 'digital anonymity' can get in the bin. There is literally no need for weird AI talking heads in documentaries, except to not pay stand in actors.

"Earthers get to walk outside into the light, breathe pure air, look up at a blue sky, and see something that gives them hope. And what do they do? They look past that light, past that blue sky. They see the stars, and they think, 'Mine.'"

There's nothing more Christmassy than listening to @iwriteok.bsky.social talk about dying in nuclear hellfire (and Warhammer 40,000, but mostly the nuclear hellfire)

Going to be nice to get properly into the Christmas swing of things over the next few days after a very up-and-down sort of a year.
Putting off anything important until into the new year I think/hope. :)

He crafts his prose like poetry. His scenes aren’t described so much as woven with his words. It moves slowly but the reader is well rewarded for lingering.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood
Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man

Given that I'm between projects I've had a chance to catch up on my 40k/Heresy reading - a mix of older and newer stuff.
Have very much enjoyed Assassinorum: Kingmaker, Dropsite Massacre, Fulgrim: the Perfect Son, and Voidscarred over the last wee while.
