All of which is forgive if it was a salient critique of modern government, but it's just not got the sauce.

The critique has gone from lancing the accepted assumptions of the Federation in a way that opens the space for more stories, to a very tired "is big government bad?" which I cannot view without a degree of scepticism. Especially when the solution is *always* Starfleet officers breaking the rules.

I concur with my learned colleagues on the topic of sausage dice, though I marginally prefer '1d3' in most cases as I personally prefer to be more specific than less when it comes to notation.

COVER REVEAL! This is the cover of the Fermi's Progress Christmas Special - **A VERY FERMI CHRISTMAS**! It is the work of the amazing @chrisfenoglio.bsky.social, the artist behind @ryannorth.ca's Star Trek: Lower Decks comics! Preorder it from @scarletferret.com: scarletferret.com/books/a-very...
The cover of A Very Fermi Christmas - a side on view of the Fermi flying upwards, the wake of its Alcubierre drive obliterating the planet below. The spacewarping wake of the ship resembles a Christmas tree, and the planets and stars behind the wake look like tinsel and baubles.

Noodling around at making my own monster for running Dismal Keep and came up with this. I apologise to anyone who can actually do layout for how scuffed this is. I have... A lot to learn. drive.google.com/file/d/11myq...
An image of a woodcut from The Book of British Ballads (Hall 1842) by artist Joseph Noel Paton of a ghost with a skeletal face attacking a man on horseback. The man has a moustache, the horse does not. The horse is, in fact, fucking terrified. The man less so, he might even be into it. Like that one episode of Star Trek The Next Generation when Dr. Crusher fucked that ghost. It was like an heirloom horny ghost, which gets more fucked up the longer you think about it.

Anyway, this is accompanied b text: vengeful Revenant 9Hp/3 Armour, Elite, Ghost, Cursed. A statline for a monster for The Dismal Keep, Scott Malthouse's new dungeon ttrpg, which I am sure he is really happy having associated with horny sci-fi shows from the 90's.

I usually design my business cards to be conversation-starters. But at after too many endless awkward discussions at recent events, I realized I needed a new type of card. The conversation-ender.
A stack of business cards reads in English and Korean: Generative AI is unethical, annoying, and anti-art. Anything it touches will fail, and be a mark of shame on human history. I do not wish to discuss this further.

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.
I will dispose of the first myth as quickly as possible. The “secret” is skill. If you haven’t learned how to do something, the people who have may seem to be magicians, possessors of mysterious secrets. In a fairly simple art, such as making pie crust, there are certain teachable “secrets” of method that lead almost infallibly to good results; but in any complex art, such as housekeeping, piano-playing, clothes-making, or story-writing, there are so many techniques, skills, choices of method, so many variables, so many “secrets,” some teachable and some not, that you can learn them only by methodical, repeated, long-continued practice — in other words, by work.

Been trying to read some isekai lately.
Four frames comic about two types of Isekai I found and read lately. The first frame shows a young man with a sword. He says: "My name is Josh Itcantbehelped and I used to be a loser before a car crash brought me to a world where I am a god and half the population is made of SLAVE CATGIRLS". The second frame shows him crying and clenching his fist, with many a cat behind him, wearing bikinis. He says "To make it here I guess I have no choice but to own as many catgirls as I can...how tragic...". The third frame shows another character from another type of Isekai. She's a woman with a fluffy dress. She says "My name is Elise Robespierre and after being hit by a truck of terminal cancer I am now in my favorite 900 pages novel. With many a hot man.". The fourth frame shows her giving a board presentation to citizens, with graphs and pictures of plants on it. She says: "Hello citizens. This is my plan to modernize the agricultural system and prevent any further plague by creating medicine [...] taxes which ..." the text becomes unreadable as she keeps talking to her captive audience.

Seized by the desire to do a Warhammer 40k fishing game. Massive rusting cybergothic space trawlers dragging chaos-warped gigawhales out of the stygian abyss of the ocean. Tyranid shark-fleets. Eldar anglers with wraith bone fishing rods and monofilament lines. Orks with shotguns like Withnail.

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

FATAL became a meme, ensuring a survival in the cultural memory it never deserved. It's not that interesting. The same tedious edgelord bullshit you'd have seen on any forum at the time. Now laundered into a stick for neopuritanical dipshits to wave when they want to put the boot in.
