@cstross Of all the things you could have been right about, I’m glad it was that and not anything out of the Laundry Files…

@CryptoLek Tell me the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025 isn't a protestant fundamentalist play? Dominionism is all about the patriarchy/child abuse nexus.

@cstross A person I know has created a dystopia near future RPG system (unfortunately, only in Polish). I've heard from him more than once something in line: "I've made a fucking RPG, not a dystopian state operation manual".
