wait til you fuckers hear about The Expanse. it's got Jovian moon battles galore and ship crew polycules and maybe even some crazy alien goo please read it please I need a community to talk about it with and you're all so close it's so good. book 2 cold opens on the icy surface of Ganymede with a shooting war about to begin from the POV of a Samoan power armour marine girl from Mars. you get to watch space Mormons get their investments reacquisitioned for a harebrained scheme to save millions of lives. the protagonist has like ten biological parents for tax reasons.

twitter is being overrun by ice war posting. Best this sites been in ages

Just stayed up all night across the road from a bushfire, watching the updates. Never been so relieved to hear heavy rain against the roof before in my life.

"Bevelopment" was right there people come on

it’s crazy how it’s been like 5,000 years and beer is still the third most widely consumed beverage on earth. you would think we would have found something that tasted better by now.

disagree. while obviously it's true that slavery is slavery and one of the worst things humans can do to each other, and have done for thousands of years, precise clocks have only been used in the workplace for ~200 years. *factory owners had the government issues fines* to their workers for being a single minute late, then /confiscated their pocket watches/ because they were cheating the workers of their breaks and slowing the clock during work. the sheer amount of machine authority involved in worker exploitation is absolutely an unprecedented change that is the calling card of modern Capitalism. medieval peasants the world over had way more time off than any worker nowadays, as did Egyptian slaves. their employers provided food and drink every day, and all work ever since the stone age has a universal pattern of "hard work day, relaxing work day, repeat"

Historia Civilis explains it better in his best video, titled simply /Work./ and Engels' "/The Authority of the Machine/" is like 2 pages long.

yes suffering and exploitation predates it, but there are undeniable and important differences that only came about around the turn of the 19th century, and they're bad enough to be worth singling out.

being an archaeologist in tumblr is so funny because I see so many text posts and go. Imperialism pre-dates capitalism. Rebellion against empires pre-dates capitalism. Money pre-dates capitalism. Social inequality pre-dates capitalism. Misogyny pre-dates capitalism. Wealth inequality pre-dates capitalism. Unilateral rule by oppressive rulers pre-dates capitalism. People’s dependence on their job for their survival pre-dates capitalism. Capitalism as an economic system is about 200-250 years old max but these problems are much, much older, and capitalism supports, entrenches, or exacerbates many of these problems… doesn’t mean it invented them and doesn’t mean they will simply cease to be problems After Capitalism.

house plays both zero mission & prime hunters in season 1 which can only lead me to believe he’s a hardcore metroid fan. thank you for your time.

I think this is my favourite tweet. I've definitely read funnier and cleverer tweets, but this one is my favourite.

for reasons i shall not discuss, a tweet

no notes. perfect adaptation of Disco's artstyle, and just an excellent job conveying characters and their struggles/concerns through portrait.

"Storming Disco" collection (Part one)

(For those who don't know, I drew some Stormlight Archive characters as if they were in Disco Elysium)

1. Renarin

Maybe I used too many lines but he goes hard as hell

2. Kaladin

I wanted him to look a little like glass but idk

3. Elhokar

The point was to give him a theatrical vibe

4. Shallan

I think that I don't need to explain anything with this one

5. Adolin

He has the most clear space and palette of all of them (you know, most of the time he's a happy boy)

6. Jasnah

She's in Shadesmar

7. Dalinar

He has the same style as Renarin (ironic, right?) Also there's the Stormfather on the background too

8. Navani

A very casual style that I think suits her very well

9. Syl

She was happy because I was going to draw her

10. Szeth

I like that he's different from the rest. The black space represents Nightblood
