Unfortunate, I was kinda looking forward to Marathon despite the drama.
A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What can US citizens do to fight/prevent their country enabling genocide?1·1 day agoOh! Lookie here, a fascist for breakfast. My day is off to a lovely start.
The difference is in the history. America has NEVER been honest about its origins. No other modern nation was built on slavery like we were. Britain abolished it decades before America. And after WWII, they gave up the rest of their colonies because it was the right thing to do. That’s when the American Empire took off. Naval bases in every country. Global watchdog, above the laws everyone else has to follow.
America? It only stopped genociding Indians when they were such a small population that they couldn’t pose a threat to the white man, and it still fucks them over every chance it can. Edit: oh yeah, and then it painted them as villains in cowboy movies for half a century. Nice.
Racism is so deeply embedded in America that the simple claim that black lives matter turned into a controversy. You know what a normal nation would’ve done? Examine their police. Us? We said fuck those people, let the racist cops do whatever they want. Do you have any clue what it’s like to raise a black son in America? I’m white myself so I can’t speak firsthand, but I have talked to numerous people who’ve told me about “the Talk”. You know about this? It’s not the birds and the bees, it’s about how to behave around cops so they don’t kill you. How insanely fucked up does your country have to be for that??
This is called honesty. Progress can’t be made without it.
I’ve made it my life’s work to fight white supremacy in the blue collar South and I’ll fucking devour you whole.
Edit: I’d like to print out to anyone stumbling across this that that sumbitch knows I’m right and is lying bloodied in the mud at my feet, crying, like a little bitch. Just like the ones I’ve beaten in real life after they insisted on dancing. Bullies have come after me my whole fuckin life and I’ve learned EXACTLY how they work. I know the strategies fascists use on forums like these. And I’ll bet you’ve logged me, maybe you’ve got someone looking into me. I don’t doubt the fascist Musk’s AI has flagged me for all kinds of shit and it’s just a matter of time now.
I ain’t fuckin scared of you, and your mother should be ashamed.

Contrast paints and washes alone can accomplish amazing things. Trust me, if you’ve thought about trying, do it. You can absolutely do a better job than that in no time.
And everyone’s hands shake, you work around it :)

Whole nations of people wiped out
And yes, obviously, Gaza.
A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Bungie confirms it stole art once again, will undertake a 'thorough review' of Marathon assetsEnglish7·5 days agoIt’s such a damn shame, too. Destiny 2 was some of the most fun I’ve had in gaming over the last decade. Absolutely jaw-dropping environments at times, clever encounter designs, the gunplay, so many things to love. And I have no doubt Marathon will be a hell of a thing from what I’ve seen. These people can design a game.
But GODDAMN stop stealing art from people. Upper management has got to be atrocious with all the bullshit they’ve pulled over the years. And you know that bullshit starts at C-suite and rolls downhill.
Just a damn shame.

They’ve got tons of weird organs thanks to the Emperor’s engineering. Most of them are normal super soldier stuff, improved blood clotting, that sort of thing. But they can also produce extremely acidic spit, which helps them break down materials for food in a pinch, or to be used as a weapon. They can also gain your knowledge by eating you. Genetic memory is a thing in 40k and Space Marines aren’t the only ones capable of getting at it - see: Kroot.
They can also survive space longer than humans, as one might expect from space-faring super soldiers. Uhhh, what else…
You should probably just read this https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Creation_of_a_Space_Marine

A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Receives Official Mod Support, Fishing Mini-Game PossibleEnglish9·8 days agoSpace Marines can survive off very little in the lore for surprisingly long periods. All that genetic engineering… somehow.
They can also gain memories from people they eat. And spit acid.
A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Receives Official Mod Support, Fishing Mini-Game PossibleEnglish3·8 days agoIt’s a pretty good game to start with tbh. 40k is a crazy fun setting, if you like tactics games give Mechanicus a try. Till this game it definitely held the title for “dopest 40k soundtrack” imo
You’re the kind of OP I’d missed
You can wait your turn some of us have been here a long time goddammit
Break glass in case of despair, yes
They couldn’t afford to build any walls after that floor 😂
