Hey guys.
I know I promised a "Masks of Steel" update soon, but, it will take awhile longer.
I've been quite depressed again, partly from the job search, partly from some very nasty spats with my family. And being unable to write consistently makes me feel guilty, which in turn makes me more depressed in a vicious cycle.
So, I'm gonna take it easy for a few days. I'll try to make lore posts consistently every Monday from now on. Call it "Masks of Steel Monday" (simply cause I feel that has a nice ring to it, lol)
Sorry to anyone who was eagerly waiting for an update to my main project, especially after I promised it.

@StarkillerGR @DarksaberLight The Confederacy of Independent Systems was a four layered cake:
• Top: Count Dooku, fulfilling Palpatine's plan
• Upper-Top: The business and military-industrial corporations motivated by greed
• Middle and Bottom: Mistreated planets seeking independence from the Republic

@DarksaberLight Dooku was fully evil, but the general public didn't know that. For those in the independent systems, he would seem a true visionary.

I hate that they've leaned into the idea that Dooku was just fully evil (thus making Doc Brown look crazy).
The (mostly Outer Rim) Separatists had legitimate grievances. Their physical distance from the Core meant they were marginalized and denied representation in the Senate.

@equalitysdaniel Keep in mind that the Minutemen are going toe to toe with the united Eastern Brotherhood Chapters and The Institute who are both rocking tech that would make The Enclave envious, while the Legion barely is making ground against an understaffed and undersupplied NCR detachment

@EpicBronyGaming I am so very sorry. Praying for you all in this most tragic time

I suppose I should iterate on this now that my mind has cleared up a bit.
A couple weeks ago my grandmother passed away on my dad's side.
Now, today, my sister OD'd on Fentanyl and has severe brain damage.. we'll be going in tomorrow to do.. well you know.

@PerezLangamez @RazorFist "We know what you're doing to the Polish and your citizens who speak out against you, and we think that's very mean of you! But listen here, if you promise to behave and not try to take Britain or Russia again we will give you $200 million to rebuild"

@RazorFist This is like killing Hitler but negotiating with Himmler so he can remain in power after WW2.

Trump didn't have to tell the Iranian people to continue marching, which got them killed by the Arab puppets who occupy their government.
He didn't have to tell them to stop and shelter indoors, which got them rounded up and executed by same.
Not undoing Jimmy Carter's 47-year error is a choice (one with future consequences, sure, but a choice). But why tell the Iranians they will receive help only to orphan them all to die?
Cowardice.
Foremost, from the people we elected to Congress, who rescinded his powers of deployment two weeks ago to score midterm points.
But cowardice, too, from Trump.
You didn't have to liberate the subjugated people of Iran, or install the Shah. Or even engineer a situation favorable to that outcome.
No one had that on their electoral wishlist in 2024.
But you also didn't have to tell them to march, just to leave them to be butchered by the tens of thousands.
Iran have had internet for exactly one day in the last 3 months, so none of us know to what extent the Iranian people protested or marched or acted against the regime during that blackout.
But if they didn't... can you really blame them?
This is the bullshit they deal with when they do march.
MOST Iranians hate their government.
But NO Iranians trust America.
Nor should they.
English

@RazorFist What even was the point of ANY of this if we were going to leave the Iranian people high and dry while cutting sweet new deals with the embers of a regime that we suddenly decided to hold back from ousting once and for all. The Iranian people deserve better...

@ShiranuiLeopard ...No kidding. I'm making a point that the RoT Sith are superior in terms of power and what they do.
English

The average SW fan thinks sith are those harmless goth teens that smoke clove cigarettes in grave yards.
In reality they're more like the satanists that sacrifice people on altars of human skulls and bind demons to possess and murder people with

At this point I'm convinced Star Wars fans straight up don't even know what a Sith is and they just think it's some other shit they have imagined in their own head.

@ShiranuiLeopard Yes but the Rule of Two actively requires the apprentice to be smarter and stronger than the Master in order to become the Master, thus ensuring each new generation surpasses the next

@SnepOfTheWest The Sith Academy in KOTOR literally had folks dying of exhaustion and thirst just to apply to be considered for enrollment all while the guards watched and laughed
English

@ShiranuiLeopard Who, as a result, resemble more of the satanists of the 1970s that were doing some REALLY vile shit.
Especially when you consider how powerful modern Sith were because of their extremely Darwinian philosophy

@equalitysdaniel Just remember, nothing escapes God's final judgement on the day each of us sheds our mortal coil

The executive summary is hard to get through. The rest will be even more difficult. God, I pray for justice.

@ShiranuiLeopard @equalitysdaniel Thank you.

@TrioculusSWRP I mean, if we wanna go by "the original source" in determining which is better, Heir To The Empire had their first official appearance and they were basically Lon Chancey Jr looking aliens with elf-ears.
