(Image desc, idea ramblings are below this) A simple graphic labeled “2056 Confrontation At The Lunar Farside. The first ever enactment of “Operation False Shepherd” and the first successful retrieval of a space-born UAP.” The graphic depicts the moon and space around it, along with the paths of two fleets and notes regarding them. The first is a UAP fleet (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena), going past the far side of the moon. The second is a human fleet, labeled Shepherd Fleet, which is redirected to corner the UAP fleet. The UAPs move away from the shepherds to avoid contact, putting them close to the moon’s surface. In range, a ground station launches a nuclear missile, causing the UAPs to scatter at impossible speeds. The EMP burst from the nuke disables one of the UAPs mid acceleration, allowing it to be later retrieved and reverse engineered. (Actual ramblings here) The core idea of this idea is basically “what if the hard sci-fi space combat of The Lunar War, but against something that is inherently not hard sci-fi for all intents and purposes?” Thus, near future flying silos fighting against depictions of UFOs accurate to actual accounts and reports. The alternate history stuff came along as fun worldbuilding, and then I couldn’t help but try to come up with a narrative and theme and message because of course. Overall the story would probs be split among two periods; the origins of the timeline, and the cold war taking place in the 2000s. The main splitting point of the timeline in the 1940s-50s, the US gov actually decides to publicly take the ufo phenomena as a serious threat. The general story and worldbuilding would be loosely inspired off of ufo myth and rumor, mainly revolving around conflicts between the US gov and the military industrial sector trying to profit off of the situation. The cold war half would largely be about rampant capitalism and authoritarianism driving earth into the mud, and the NHI holding the answer to the Fermi Paradox.

Have been thinking of an alt-history, hard sci-fi story of a cold war against the UAP phenomenon and NHI, probably done in an analogue style similar to Mare Ignis. Issue is I don’t know shit about military, technical, space, or ufo stuff all that well. Ramblings in alt text.

"it's not even hard to do, I just can't do it" is the most frustrating part of ADHD and it pisses me off.

Wanted to paint this dog

Berbiz, a blond fallow deer with glasses and a goatee, tells Ader, the yellow one-eyed deer an eponymous The Hayseed Knight: "I find that there's nothing more terrifying than ignorance, for it is comforting like nothing else in this world, it cannot be cured by anything less than the will to fix it, and it can never be recovered once lost."

This is one of my favorite lines I've ever written. It really makes me feel like The Hayseed Knight is an important game, when my confidence wavers.

Color image of a beach with ocean in background, sand foreground, some grassy cover in right lower corner. The sky seems clear-ish. In mid-ground near beach-water interface is a large explosion in sandy colors and also some red where untrained jackasses have used too much, and wrongly placed, dynamite in an effort to obliterate a rotting whale carcass. Rotting whale proceeded to rain upon the watching crowd and no one was injured. It is glorious.

Lisclorn in Gondor looking east towards the mountains of Mordor, from the Ardacraft server.

I was thinking “imagine being from Gondor and having to live next to the dark land of doom and despair” but then I remembered Canada has to live next to the US

Mmmm… toilet paper that falls clean off the bone…

I find it funny when my voice cracks in a way that sounds like I’m using autotune

An advert saying “bred with a Brooklyn accent”

My mind is marred with sin

A work-in-progress map made in the program Wonderdraft, labeled "The Waters of Ruapua, a Godly Sanctuary for Mortal Life." It depicts a relatively small interior seaway surrounded by mountainous landmasses. Color is being added, the coasts now green and the outside now desert.

Same as before, but with an overlay showing early drafts of national borders. It's incomplete with only a handful of states present.

Fantasy bullshit continues. I'm satisfied with the blocking/general shapes of the landmasses for now, though still need to detail the coasts up north. Many names still need work.

Also have to call out Diminish. Absolutely heart wrenching art and a huge inspiration youtu.be/TPT85_luGsA?...

Need a restaurant to sell a foot wide meatball called “The Eye of Sauron”

that one oomf who lowkey wont stop vocal stimming

Also I realized the whole goner maker sequence is just a ploy to make you state your real name. It hits you with “name your vessel” to get the shenanigans out, which then shifts your mindset to be more serious when it asks for your actual name. Toby’s gonna jumpscare us at some point with our name

YouTube video by Claire Noelle - Music Deltarune - Axon Doll (IMAGE_FRIEND and Vessel Theme)

Again have to call out Claire Noelle’s works, just some of the best (and surprisingly prophetic) Deltarune fan content I’ve experienced. I keep mixing up her leitmotifs with Toby’s

holy fuck

I already have a "team of Ph.D. level experts" in my pocket. It's called being in a discord server with a bunch of furries

People: "Are you fucking stupid?"

Me:

ceroba with her hair down 🧡

A sacabambaspis, text reads “She call me sacabambaspis” in reference to Shaggy’s 1995 hit song Mr. Boombastic

meme fish

Sometimes I look at truck ads and go “this is literally just propaganda”

Remembering the old weather mod before Protomanly’s took the lead

I made this an image, feel free to save it and use it lol

hehe

Discord text that reads; "I watched a guy do this in a toothpaste ad once. Ta da!" Traveling at 70 miles per hour, Daffy has no chance to avoid the sudden wall of ice placed before him. He makes contact, his body instantly stopping as his beak pierces through. It's a humorous scene, but the horror of the situation is concealed under cartoon appearances; his body has just come to a near instantaneous stop, racking g-forces in the hundreds. Underneath the cartoon shell, the flesh and organs that once made up Daffy the duck has been reduced to a meaty paste. He is utterly and unequivocally gone.
