Go knock on a door.

((I'd offer Xan as an example of why genetics experiments are a good thing but then I look at him and some of the things he plans to do and I realize why we should be careful.))

((I'd think he does, considering his comments and his line of work. He's an Eldritch abomination of some sort - the usual innumerable eyes, many teeth, and thin limbs reaching toward you etc.))

I would personally have liked to see more Mark 1 fighting action, just because the Cherno looked pretty badass.

You're not the only one.

Holy shit this is amazing.

Cherno Alpha may never truly die so long as the spirit of the revolution still lives in our hearts, comrade.

So I saw Anchorman 2, and I can safely say that it is the greatest miracle of cinematography to have ever graced a screen. Go see it. Go see it right now.

And then, after the film, I loudly invoked the name of Osiris (in front of a total stranger) to unlock a door, and it worked.

Headcanon.

A herple derple post.

Smaug is so cute!
I want one.

((What I'm wondering is why should we care about those questions, really, or why would Steve ever give us the opportunity to determine any of this. It simply makes no sense, considering that absolutely zero of the current revolutionaries are equipped to make far-reaching decisions on a basically galactic scale. The human mind cannot comprehend the size of the galaxy or even a timeframe longer than two centuries or so, so asking any inmates about empire policy is completely pointless, as their decisions will be uninformed, ineffective and based on reasoning that is rooted in their own prejudices and intellectual limitations.

I mean, I thought the revolution was all Steve's idea, as he is the man with the plan and the brain amalgamation actually equipped to handle all this crap (not to mention that he knows a whole lot about the Altered, has actual experience overseeing vast organizations and acute knowledge of the failings of human self-government on a galactic scale). If he lets us decide all this, what's the point of making a revolution to reshape humanity into a more survivable form in the first place? The convicts sure aren't the ones to ask when you want to know what's wrong with society. None of them even know what the UWM is actually like and how galactic society even works - most or all of them were put in stasis two or more centuries ago, and most of them are also either dangerously unhinged, incompetent, dangerously well-meaning or worse.))

((I'm guessing some sort of Three Laws-type programming.
Also, lift the tech ban! We might get lucky and develop faster FTL.))
