I couldn’t agree more. Dude writes a book about how the greatest human achievement is empathy and how it can redeem us for the evils we commit in ignorance, and then says that all queer people secretly wish they were “normal”. Just a reminder we all need to examine ourselves for bias I guess.
Herbert was homophobic, Assimov was sexist, Orson Scott Card is homophobic, it’s such a shame.
Slartibartfast is going hard on this one
This is great! I took a look through your other posts and I love your style, it feels very alive. It’s reassuring these days to warm ourselves with the flame of human creativity. Thank you for sharing!
These are incredible, thank you for sharing!
Halfing bard here. Turns out my version of high fantasy is being a silly little guy with a flute and a garden
I use emacs with evil, best of both worlds
I loved Timberborn, great game with a fun twist compared to the rest of the genre. I’d also recommend Bannerlords and Foundation, I had a blast with both of those as well.

I think it might actually, the Chinese consumer ram market just dropped by 20% recently, hopefully that percolates elsewhere as well.
