The Horus Heresy. When you see what the Emperor's vision actually was, and really get to compare it to the galaxy they got, it's just... so much worse. And the galaxy is pretty goddamn bad to begin with. But you know there's a special place at the very bottom of hell for Erebus.

Magnus did nothing wrong and Russ has fleas.

Which fuckin' god? The one that (if you believe in) sent the ten plagues? And the flood? And burned two major cities? And that's just in the book where he's supposedly the good guy?

Between Neo from RWBY and Toga from MHA, I'm starting to think I have a type...

I want to see games with AI-powered NPCs making responsive, possibly unique dialog. Probably text-only at first, but maybe with AI voice-acting later on.

Yeah, that's the real thing: "the economy" is how well the country is working for rich people and corporations. Look at average wages, actual buying power, etc. What's in the hands of the worker. That's the actual measure of how well a country is doing. Grotesque inequality is a condemnation, regardless of what the stock market is doing.
