Last post about #over/under for the night: adding onto that aspect of completely separate gameplay experiences, barely learned:

2) Image not related

Thinking on this, it is kinda weird how chill a *shit ton* of SFF is chill with Manifest Destiny being so deeply embedded into its culture.

Thinking about this snippet from the Fifth Head of Cerberus because of the Fourth. For all that could be said about him, Wolfe had a well and true cognizance of how violence was inherent to all steps of the colonial project- even well after independence.
