If I had any clout, I have a killer idea for a CRPG using Star Trek Adventures rules and inspired by Fallout New Vegas, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Disco Elysium that I would turn into an original storydriven Star Trek epic.

This is a damning indictment of Bernie Sanders. I’m sure the remaining employees and editorial board of a gutted paper owned by one of the richest men in the world has only the best interests of the country at heart.

I was teaching once about the International Space Station & I was excitedly explaining weightlessness, living conditions & the perils of space travel & a student said “No offense but I’m gonna trust Elon Musk before I trust you.” It was the most devastating thing said to me in my 16 years teaching.

In Zack Snyder's Justice League, Darkseid (the humanoid embodiment of fascism) is repelled from Earth in antiquity with a greivous axe blow to his Right shoulder. His emissary Steppenwolf is halted by Superman who, unharmed, shrugs off an axe blow to his Left shoulder. In this essay I will

My favorite moment from any Arkham game is in Origins when you’re sneaking through GCPD and pass over a room of about 30 cops - the superior officer is telling them about the bounty a crime lord put on your head. You’re supposed to keep going.
I always drop down and beat the shit out of them.

It is both predictable and telling that the losers our meritocracy have deemed some very big brained boys that we must rely on for orbital infrastructure believe we can plop tech notorious for constantly needing to be cooled in an environment where room temperature vessels need massive radiators.
“orbital data centers” is actually the dumbest goddam thing ive ever heard, if you actually give this shit any credence you should lose power of attorney

Things that aren’t crime island that you could do with billions dollars:
- A home theater built to look like the bridge of USS Voyager.
- a personally tailored Klingon uniform.
- A Star Trek RPG with the mechanical depth of BG3 and the writing of Disco Elysium.
- every good cause on Earth.

I know the science is that a net worth of billions is likely to warp your brain but I just think there's so many things you could do with a billion dollars that does not involve going to crime island
If I was a billionaire I would not take trips to Crime Island. I would own The Simpsons arcade machine
