Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 18hI'd like to see that actually happen first. 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 21hNo it just sucks and costs a lot lol 000
Reposted by Cassandra Pronouns (she/her)HK @hkesvani.bsky.social · 06/10/2026We're going to be forced to play semantic games and deliberately get lost in semiotics while in the real world, expulsions and killings are still continuing, retrospective articles stating the IDF lied are still being published, and people are still both sidesing. We're stuck in reboot culture 516335
Reposted by Cassandra Pronouns (she/her)HK @hkesvani.bsky.social · 06/10/2026It's cool that we're going to run the 'zionism isn't racism and is actually normal' playbook again, while ignoring liberal Israeli politicians who are regularly going on podcasts calling for the permanent expulsion of all Palestinians and that killing children was actually fine, if not good 529468

Reposted by Cassandra Pronouns (she/her)David Timoney @fromarsetoelbow.bsky.social · 05/10/2026It is bizarre that we are arresting OAPs for holding anodyne placards while people like Berger fulminate about non-existent demands and fictional party policies. A sincere and modest expression of belief is criminalised while brazen lying and hyperbolic emoting are indulged. 010921
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 05/10/2026remember when in the house of commons one of the ministers said that it would be imoral to stop shipping Israel body armour? 050
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I think a lot of the problem is also that Lulu is kind of a secret blairite, and that gives his party the same problem of the 1990s and early 00s dead zone as the Democrats and all the rest of them. 0110
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 04/10/2026It's 1000% "Look who it is, the press." shit. Every night should have been going through project 2025 and just saying the most horrible bits 010
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 04/10/2026IIRC no. It's just the normal "elderly hasbeen leftist does not trust anyone to replace him." 160

Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Growth is much higher but also everything is much worse and much more obviously designed to fuck you, and there still aren't any houses. 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 02/10/2026honestly your quote on the dynamic nature of the PRC here reminded me of how eye opening running into some pro-PRC technothriller type video shit on youtube and see Chinese people also more or less imagine fighting a current American and Japanese and ROC force with their future weapons. 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 02/10/2026cool and then they didn't, not only facilitating for an Israeli genocide but also probably losing themselves the election in the process lol. 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 02/10/2026feels like this would have been a lot more creditable if he'd like, actually done it. 030
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I remember the Humanist Inheritance (Did that like, ever get published anywhere?) which was hard science but basically used it for nothing but reinventing the most banal cod age of sail Weberian warfare from first principles. 030
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026you can imagine a really tense plot in which the main characters are stuck in a pot during a dead time when there's no viable outbound slots and have to evade gangsters or imperials or whatever hunting them until they the orbital transfer window opens, with escalating measures as it gets closer. 130
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026If you're going to do hard SF, then use the limitations of your technology to drive the plot. Have the ship be stuck in a port until the next orbital window comes up and have to deal with that. 130
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026what really annoys me is how often you have hard SF details but you are, effectively just doing star trek. Like the Expanse is kind of guilty of this. It's hard science fiction but the torches are so unrealistically powerful that you can just kind of turn and burn all the way across the system. 130
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I think it can be a fun aesthetic if you do something with it other than show off. Like in my own setting there's an area which has a travel and non travel season because of orbital windows 020
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Paradise island is actually a very weird political system in the comics. It's an absolute monarchy that's also an Athens style direct democracy. 010
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026They transparently do believe all transparently people should be murdered 170
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026These guys do not believe the murder of trans people is bad. 030
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026That is 100% of there problem 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It was about very fast superhuman and active defence systems like anti aging systems... 210
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026extremely frustrating thing: years ago I did something on bsky I think it was bsky and @wiresandflesh.bsky.social liked it and I cannot remember a key word enough to find it lol 100
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I really wish that my GM had had access to this thread when they were trying to run blades in the dark and its derivatives lol. 2100
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 30/09/2026They need to stop trying to make the hassan thing happen it's embarrassing 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The last holdout hiding in the jungle somewhere 021
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 29/09/2026There feels like there's a fundamental hold on British politics that stops much of the centre left from talking about what is happening right now and this is one part of it 020
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 29/09/2026A lot of this countries problems just come down to it being difficult to go anywhere at any speed. 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Huh really? You see pension figures as a percentage of income passed around lower than most places. Is it because we're giving it out as other benefits? 310
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I also note that we somehow avoid the fact that the uk has the lowest state pension in western Europe 110
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 28/09/2026this has been the same argument my life, and it has yet to reduce racism. Indeed racism is stronger than ever. 020
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It won't happen amd if ut did it would be bad 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Black fleet crisis was a fascinating time capsule of 1990s politics, but God, the Yevetha suck 020
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Wait, mind control, gun, what? Like I'd heard this was bad, but... Why are there two EU books with Leia being subject to sexy mind control? 020
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 24/09/2026arrested for trying to make a dingy full of people drown in the channel. 000
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 24/09/2026the problem is that we spent the last 18+ years telling the British voters "Things are getting worse, we must tighten our belts" without end. What's necessary is not further telling Britain things will be bad, but a plan to actually make them good. And that plan has to be income tax and immigration 000

Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I think with Dio, the author does, if not sympathise with him, at least enjoy writing him. Like the problem comes when you're mad at your own antagonist 030
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It was so funny back in the day where it was one of the major vs debate sources. 020
Cassandra Pronouns (she/her) @indiecornwall.bsky.social · 22/09/2026just had a great idea of how to do space boarding combat: Everyone has a soul catcher chip in their head and it's considered bad to destroy them. Most space combat is fought with drones, but you can't blow up a command ship even if it refuses to surrender, so you got to board. 040
