Seventh best writer you've never heard of, grumpy grill dad, neoclassicist, neoromantic, Christian, AI Hater, and purveyor of niche historical things.

Hello there, it appears you found me. If you like sword and sorcery, clashing steel and harrowing escapes, then I'm your guy. I have a pirate adventure (a sequel to 'Hand that Wields the Sword') written but not yet published. Try one of my books out, or not. I'm not your dad.

@NobodyIsOurGuy The entire point of New Vegas was to give the player total freedom. House and the NCR can each be argued as the "least bad" outcomes. Not sure on independent as the epilogue makes clear chaos ensues. Legion is a bad ending.

Just makes this quote from the Fallout show even more fucking stupid. The NCR is not a good guy faction, it's just less evil than the Legion in certain ways. They're still imperialist bullies who WILL stage false flags and collude with human traffickers and serial killers.

Fun fact: The NCR allegedly coordinated with the New Reno crime families and raider gangs to attack Vault City until they capitulated and allowed the NCR to absorb them

This is a peak example of Women Writing Men. Some authors oppose violence so much they make the heroes pacifists Harry Potter is the worst offender. Voldemort is killing people all over, but at no point do any Good Men kill any Death Eaters. It's absurd. If a man wrote those books Voldemort's regime would have faced Aurors runing Viet Cong style Apparation ambushes 24/7. They'd be making people's pens and doorknobs into Port-Keys that dropped you into an active volcano, or a dragon's lair. But instead the good guys just stand around being grave and sad until the final battle. It's very silly

@jmgwritten Amen to that. Every time Harry Potter was told "No, Harry! He's not worth it..." I would scream in my head....yes yes he IS worth it! Punch Draco right in the face.

@NyinaWaJambo81 Also, Paul VI implemented the new Mass with a far gentler hand than say..... Patriarch Nikhon in Russia did. The much-touted 1960s and 1970s abuses already existed and were being done in the "Old Rite". Completely separate issue.

Catholic Atlanta@NyinaWaJambo81·
Pope Paul VI intended for the new Roman Missal to be universal and to replaced the old. It is THE MASS. There was never any intention of having two rites in the Roman Church. He asked the Catholic faithful to accept the new liturgy with obedience and unity. Nothing has been gained by prolonging this transition. Making concession to traditionalists has only resulted in more arrogance and disrespect from them. Also, it allows a community that foments division to perpetuate by forming cliques.

@OcultShinobi Because it was. For all the accomplishments Japan had achieved from 1860-1920, much of their 1930s culture was a regression into barbarism.

@pegobry_en So you agree with me that Hollywood was trying to get people laugh at the learned and make reading and education "uncool", all in order to create a population of illiterate chimpanzees?

In ways small and large every day, you realize what's happened to Texas is that there are no more Hanks. There's not really any Boomhauers anymore either. Just Bills and Dales. -OS

Saw a guy struggling to start his car going into HEB. Still there 40 minutes later on the way out. Nobody'd give him a jump. Gave him a jump. What the fuck has happened to Texas that a dead battery doesn't materialize 40 Bubbas with jumper cables who live for this situation? -OS

It’s not a universal moral law that we can’t speak ill of the recently dead, especially if it’s a public figure who did much harm (and who’s being hagiographized by his supporters). But it is a universal moral law to pray for the dead, so pray for Lindsey Graham’s soul.
