HAS THE BETRAYING OF GENERAL LEO AND THE MASSACRE OF DOMA TAUGHT US NOTHING
The returners should have never agreed to "peace talks" in Vector; they should have burnt it to the fucking ground when they had a chance.

Jesus fucking christ literal real life Kefka Palazzo shit going on. Even the cartoonishly evil villains of 90s era video games are eclipsed by the outrageous fuckery of the heinous clowns you find in real life.
2012 does indeed still feel like a major inflection point.
the internet was awesome for like ... twenty years. thirty if you count the era where people mostly communicated through newsgroups and such. it feels like the enshittification was so sudden...
There are many many many insane people who are running no virtual machines at all.
Andrew Yang would have been better.

Sol 3 is a Class-14 Deathworld on what used to be a thirteen-point scale until they found it.
Not only is the planet very geothermally volatile with active volcanic systems AND feature violent and chaotic weather systems...
"Earth" is the deepest gravity well they've ever witnessed chemical rocketry successfully achieve orbit from.
The biosphere is teeming with pathogens, so much so that the sapient population's own bodies rely on symbiotic microbial colonies in order to digest nutrients among other tasks.
And the macroscopic fauna are ALMOST as scary as the microscopic stuff: every biome packed with highly adapted predators.
At the top of this complex carnal carnival of carnivory, the "humans" who live there are unstoppable pursuit and persistence predators highly naturally gifted in ranged combat that historically used to just WALK their prey to death. The animals which ancient humans consumed could sprint to temporary safety, but humans will catch up, ALWAYS catch up, and the prey will still be tired when they have to sprint again. Eventually the fatigue outpaces them, and humans catch up for the last time. Just walk right up and bash them with a rock, they might not even have to throw it: dinner is ready!
Furthermore, it's not just the highly volatile oxygen that all the animals there breathe... Sol 3's atmosphere also even contains a constant background presence of radon. The biosphere is passively resistant to some levels of radiation. One of the cities was consumed in the fallout cloud of an exploding nuclear fission reactor(they STILL use water to cool their municipal fission reactors even now!), and although the humans fled, the animals that stayed there are FLOURISHING. Deformed and mutated, but thriving.
NOBODY SANE CHOOSES TO GO TO SOL 3.
not gonna lie, sting fucking SLAYED that role.
Precisely.
It is the act of an influential human. Of course we'll notice. Simple as.
where's your tax return diaper donnie
Is that why the animetitties sub now has actual anime titties again instead of being a more serious version of world news like it was for a while?
