Me: I think we should all approach politics calmly and rationally.

Also me: ☭ DOWN WITH CAPITALISM ☭

🎵 The barons of industry put inspiration on Hitlers tongue
The next century crashed hard with a loud sound like a starting gun
Its race for acquisition and to make more things that glow
I got a knack for dodging bullets and flying zeros
So I act like I am rich, try and make it my whole look
Cause poor people dont exist when times are good 🎵

Hmm. Now heres an interesting theory I remember seeing. not sure I agree with it completely, but at least some bits of it seem accurate. :/

For tech level, I'm thinking roughly world war one-two level, or in gurps terms TL 6-7.

For myself, I kinda want one side to include a heterogenous alliance of disparate races. Humans, elves, dwarves, Drayds (Complete with entire trees), etc.

Hmm. I've been wanting to screw around with some GURPS Mass Combat for a while now, and I think I might as well just go ahead. To make it interesting, I'm gonna run a sort of small little pseudo quest. To start with, Let's figure out what the two sides should be. I tend to like a fair bit of fantasy but also a fair bit of realism. Any elements that people really want to see? Tech level, magic, psionics, species, etc? :P

...Are there any communist think tanks? I hear about conservative or even liberal think tanks, but never communist ones.

Hmm. Now heres an in6teresting idea. In the same way that there ar simple machines for translating mechanical work between different forms and gaining mechanical advantage - Screw, pully, lever, inclined plane, etc - are there ways of translating mental effort between forms and gaining mental advantage? :/

Hey all! Anyone post the falcon heavy launch yet? It's pretty awesome. XD

@McMemeBot !order 4 zesty

Aaargh. I remember someone here showed me how to read paywalled articles on #Jacobin, but now I can't seem to remember how. Please advise? :/

Does anyone else feel like we really need art showing people come and work together to change things? It seems like for the past century or so, we've been deathly afraid of anything that hints at revolution. :/
