We're literally on the cusp of the eco-collapse of our civilization and the most powerful country in the world is arguing about which old white dude they should put in charge. Old white dudes are the reason everything's about to go tits up. I hope the rich enjoy watching the world burn to an unrecognizable crisp, sink, implode, starve and die off. Hope those billions make a nice fan before they become kindle.

Is civilization in danger of extinction? (science video)

Is civilization in danger of extinction? (science video)

The Roman Empire, which at its height housed nearly 30% of the world’s population, was in many respects the zenith of human development. Rome was a hub of legal, economic, and technical advancement and the first city in history to have one million residents. a strong, prosperous, and stable empire that is hard to collapse. But then, the most advanced society on Earth fell, first gradually and…

Accurate Reenactments Based On Facts

Most cultures across the Galaxy do their utmost to preserve and remember their history, both the great achievements, and the terrible mistakes. Humans go a few dozen steps further.

They introduced us to a concept called "Historical reenactments" - accurate recreations of the situations and conditions of ancient events, usually battles, played out with prop equipment by real people. They also said they sometimes do these just for fun and don't care about being 100% accurate.

This particular reenactment was of a battle called Thermopylae. Using numerous historical records, they recreated the location, printed slightly lighter versions of the armor (well, helmets only for some) they wore, and dull weapons with embedded stun shockers that would create a kinetic "bump" upon contact to prevent actual injury by pushing the person back instead.

Once everyone was geared up the atmosphere changed, both visually as the holographic projectors did their thing, and from the Humans themselves - their demeanor became that of... wilderness. Ferocity. Deadly focus. It was quite fear inducing even from afar.

Then the defenders in red, the "Spartans", created a sort of spiky dome with their shields and spears. Then the attackers in blue, the "Persians" unleashed a terrifying volley of arrows, the sky hologram went darker, then a bright beam of light shone upon the defenders as they swept off arrows stuck to their shields in dramatic fashion before proceeding to charge towards their assaulting foes.

We noticed the "Spartans" were all much larger than the "Persians", and actually were equipped with subtle and very modern exoskeletons. Perplexed by this we asked if these Spartans had a very particular technological advantage for their time:

"Well, not as far as we can tell, but based on the materials we have, Spartans were, like, really buff and super strong compared to the average person of the time. Plus, according to the feats of strength they supposedly displayed, we suspect they became an extinct branch of Humanity at some point, so the exoskeletons are there to mimic what we think they were like. Anyway, look, this is the coolest part."

As they spoke, the artificial gravity was lowered slightly and there was a spike in the power output from the exoskeleton equipped Spartans. Now they were flinging the approaching Persians dozens of feet into the air, a single bare-chested man kicked three of them at once backwards at a whole group, knocking the wind out of them.

This sort of extreme violence continued for several minutes.

Suddenly, an incredibly large Persian man on a throne was carried to what was effectively the center stage. Him and a heavily bearded Spartan exchanged a dramatic dialogue, the Spartan threw his spear at the Persian, who dodged it with a single turn of his head, then proceeded to summon a massive horde of small Persians who quickly began to overrun the Spartans.

There were bodies and shields and spears and pieces of armor flying everywhere, but gradually all the red became engulfed by the blue, and only one remaining Spartan managed to wriggle his way out of the carnage and make a run for it back to their city in the distance.

Seemingly satisfied after plucking out the bearded Spartan from the pile, the giant Persian roared in triumph and this is when the reenactment ended and everyone gathered for a feast.

So this is how ancient Human Battles went, huh.

"Well, not all of them. Usually it's between more equal forces in large open fields, or prolonged sieges, which can be a bit boring to recreate.

You should come back next month, we'll be doing an old naval battle between the British Empire and Independent Pirates Lords. It ends with a really sweet whirlpool showdown. Man, what are the odds of that happening, eh?"

the selective amnesia of marvel writers when it comes to major comic events makes me so insane. not only has tony been on a team with miles (all-new, all-different avengers, 2015), and has been a mentor figure to him since he crossed over from the ultimates universe (ultimate end, 2015), they somehow conveniently forgot that tony stark died in civil war II to protect miles. MILES. the kid he’s calling “newbie” and is somehow not one of his top favorite spider-people.

why is tony treating miles like they’ve never met when he went to war against carol and was punched into a coma to protect miles from being arrested for a crime he didn’t commit???? like mama let’s research before we start writing these comics

anyway yeah miles is one of tony stark’s favourite spider-people in the multiverse HE WAS WILLING TO DIE TO PROTECT HIM

#tony stark #miles morales #miles morales: spider man #saw this after lurking around on your twitter lara #and ppl were posting other great panels but i was like hold on #where's miles holding tony's collapsed body in the la pieta pose #i am literally a broken record about cwII because i refuse to let it go #ive become that person who always brings up cw(II) at every given opportunity #but i also think that if marvel chooses to hoist these stupid fucking events on us without thinking #about the long-term ramifications and storytelling effects #then i should be able to harp on this whenever i want #@ #type: text #type: comics #universe: 616 #comic event: civil war II #comic: civil war II #ft: miles morales #character: tony stark #dynamic: tony & miles #also ziglar pulled top 5 completely out of his ass #can you even NAME those top 5 people ??? i'll wait !

When it comes to Almyra, I headcanon that their political landscape/attitude is all about having a lot of room (and balls) to fuck around, as opposed to Fódlan being neurotic and inward-facing and closed off.

It's not that Almyra is necessarily morally "better" or whatever, but I like to think there's a certain confidence that comes from being a large superpower. Domestic unrest, infighting, turmoil— all of those are problems, of course, but they're also confident that at the end of all that, Almyra will still be standing, one way or another. In contrast to Fódlani nations thinking that if they lose control, if they don't get to have it their way specifically, everything will come tumbling down and it's basically going to be the end of the world.

And both of those attitudes get synthesized in an interesting way in Claude, who's like ok if this doesn't work out then it's not the end of the world as long as I'm alive. But also, if I fuck up then Leicester will tear itself apart and my career in Fódlan will be so fucking over, come on I ran away from home and changed my identity to do this please

Tl;dr gotta love a dude who is laid back and neurotic at the same time.
