    ... this sounds like someone who hasn't lived with a dementia patient for almost half a decade. They're hard to care for at the best of times, and when semi-stable... and she died before it really got fucking bad. My mom had not only to safety-proof the house but also hire external help...

    Yes and... no. My understanding is that there are reasons that the Black Panthers and Malcom X got labeled as terrorists, it's just exaggerated because it's the white south that has been doing the talking, so to speak. They didn't do the high-profile shit that the likes of the KKK (there are...

    The thing about the White Fang is that... it went the route that various similar organizations in human history went down. Where groups get coopted by horrible people and turned into an unrecognizable curvature of themselves. The various African-American non-violent civil rights groups slowly...

    Libertarianism in the US is, sadly, deeply connected to Objectivism (a type of anarcho-capitalist ideology, i.e. government is bad, taxes are bad, greed is a virtue... that sort of thing) after the book Atlas Shrugged came out. In essence, the Libertarians tended to be the 'Lolibertarians'...

    To be honest, I kind of stayed away from anything post-Season 4 out of general principle... but then again Rooster Teeth are left-leaning Libertarians... and in the US that means those idiots crazies fundamentalists practically who worship Rynd like the freaking second coming. :eek: Then there...

    Well, at least I'm not calling for Endless Space to cross over to RWBY... that setting is just WTF Crazy in general with elements of GRIMDARK sprinkled here and there. Like the Carvers. If you think they're 'nid bad now, oh boy you haven't seen their original format which fought in an Endless...

    Well, it's an X-COM (the original, not the remake) clone that has a thing for turning the tropes of the original X-COM on their head and is set during the Cold War (specifically starting in the fall of 1979)...

    Well, it is essentially after Xenonauts 1 and the basic idea is that Chief Scientist Condescending is wrong on certain things because he didn't have the complete picture. Some of what he assumed was true ended up being false, like the base components for Praetorian alloys and alenium are located...

    Another idea that I've been playing with is a post-game Xenonauts 'setting', which would be interesting...

    Kane is a villain, he's just a villain with standards... if you will. Go against these standards and he'll make sure you're dead... Let's just say let's agree to disagree with Bush.

    Well, in this version, he's more mysterious. All everyone in-setting knows is that he isn't exactly human, he has been around for a long time, had a brother that got killed on Earth, is related to the Tacitus somehow, and knows more about Tiberium than really anyone. He is also a manipulative...

    That and a madman who is trying to eliminate the meme of civilization... It can if the right mentality and purpose are applied. Well, here is the old worldbuilding thread.

    Well, when your setting, is literally, only war across practically the entire solar system and you need those augmentations to keep up... Well, in this case, it's the friendliest secret police that you'll ever meet... as long as you don't do anything like create something like the Dollar Flu or...

    The average human being is best described as the sons and daughters of Kerensky and SPARTAN IIs and goes up from there. Some of these people are genuinely posthuman. This is on top of anthropomorphic uplifts and their augmentations as well. When you've got 160kg humans and up to 350kg uplifts...

    It happens. However, at least it isn't my Future-History setting... Well, a very long time ago I had this idea of having a CnC Tiberium/CnC Generals fusion thing that also had elements of Ace Combat, Act of War: Direct Action, Earth 21X0 series, Front Mission, among others. It was my very first...
