Can personally attest to the amount of running around the building Sebastian does on a semi-daily basis.

Another related problem is that while GW continues to claim the setting is a satire, none of the current main line writers treat the setting like that, so the main line plot now takes itself way too seriously and has lost all hint of satire or irony.
Case in point: the new Terra books.

The new DLC for Rogue Trader looks rad, but the idea of spending another 50 hours playing the Rogue Trader combat system makes me want to blow my brains out

I think we count every new PM France gets as a new republic simply because it would be funny.

Tom Clancy would have been just an incredible poster. He'd have 500k followers and a name like "TomCatOSINT" or something. He'd have 100 tweet threads on Russian carrier tactics that end with recommendations on the best places in the Barents to place tactical nuclear mines.

If I had a nickel for each time my undergraduate institution contributed to getting an entire city filled with DHS/national guard, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but its weird it happened twice

Intentionally giving your child autism is a very high risk high reward scenario. On the one hand, he could grow up to be Richard Nixon. On the other hand, he could grow up to be Richard Nixon

"Who Won?" Keeping Score After Stand-off Wars How can we tell who won if nothing was actually gained?

I have written some thoughts on why we're suddenly obsessed with counting craters.

There is absolutely no reason to pretend that people on the left wing of the political spectrum are for any reason incapable of violence.

MIIS, American Society, and the Agonizing, Slow Death of Nuclear Studies America, as a society, is culturally unequipped to deal with the current nuclear age.

I wrote on the death of MIIS, American cultural apathy, and why we can't have a healthy nuclear community.

B for upgraded (probably huge guidence overhaul) and J for silo, I imagine.
Calling it the BJ is...unfortunate.

Note the mechanized silo loader. Its probably prefueled and therefore too heavy for their usual cranes.

Alex is amazing partly because every single time I look into the Starsector forum with a complaint, Alex already knows about it and has tested several solutions to the problem.
