Hearþrich is big, mountainous, and in some places densely wooded. Coupled with a small population due to the colder climate, even with the iron fist of the Emperor, many roads are prone to highwaymen, some simply trying to rob you, and others with more... nefarious purposes☠️🪓

Prior to the last 20 years or so, diversity in a fantasy game was the result of the nerdy dudes in the development team cooking absolute heat with their worldbuilding, going into autistic detail. They were made on the understanding that this worldbuilding should ultimately serve the purpose of making the world more rich and interesting. Modern diversity is a political statement of ideological liberalism. "Why wouldn't there by Chinese people in this fantasy world inspired by the quaint shires of Medieval England, after all, there's Chinese people in England right now!" It's boring. It asserts aggressively that all the NPCs have no differences despite their obvious differences. The black woman will act and think and speak no different to the indian man, they will all just be veneers stapled onto the frame of the same universal human type. It's grey goo. Diversity is cool as fuck when it's done well, it tells you so much about the world and the people and the culture. To have the Redguard show up in Whiterun and see their vastly different dress and attitude towards the people was interesting and cool.

Dark Fantasy art but it’s human made.

🚩Winston Peters on the road : Cambridge voiced its displeasure with Luxon’s awful India FTD. Winston Peters gave an excellent 10 minute speech on why he’s determined to stop the deal, that even prominent Act supporter KC Gary Judge describes as a “dangerous constitutional Trojan horse” “I’ve seen the future this immigration trade deal can bring, I see it on the news in Europe, in Ireland and i’m going for broke around the country to put a stop to it” The audience were shocked to hear the lousy amount the Indian FTA is expected to return - “Just mere 1% of GDP by 2050”. WP explains that most trade to India will be redirected from existing markets, and in exchange Luxon, Seymour and Hipkins have agreed to direct 32 BILLION of Investment to India for the privilege. The deal that reinforces Co-Governance, and the cripples us with the Paris agreement is total dog shit. India receives 100% tariff reduction on day one, NZ has to wait years for ‘some reductions’ that India have the ultimate say on if and when that happens. No dairy at all, or ever. We can export apples - but only for two months of the year, and it gets more absurd - it’s the two months of the year that NZ doesn’t produce any bloody apples. “This is an immigration deal, with rights for work for uncapped students!” to reach someone in the audience replies: “What about our children!?” “We have to go to Australia to see our grandchildren” says another. “National Act and Labour are globalists. they take instruction from the UN, WTO and not from New Zealanders”

This time on tasting history, we will be making the authentic Necromundan Corpse Starch from the 37M. Now you might've been wondering where my husband has been these past few weeks, but to get that authentic flavor—

Back in the '70s he already laid out Senator Palpatine's rise to power with the help of the organs of commerce, C-3PO being assembled by a young boy who worked for a junk trader, and even a Chosen One prophecy. There were certain things he always wanted to include, so he did.

I got thousands of rare Cultural Revolution-era photos from a historical archive here in China. I believe some of these have never been posted online, or only exist behind extremely expensive licenses. So here they are, for free. Open the thread for more.

Looking at the quote retweets, i have never seen a caricature backfire this fucking hard

While I don’t doubt that the Kiwi boomer and his de facto progressive cultural consensus welcomes an oriental slave class, there are some problems with this poll. It is retarded to treat Asian immigration as a monolith. Critics of mass migration attack mass migration from countries like India or China, not Japan or the other East Asian tiger countries. It is easy to solicit a positive answer when you have framed the question as potentially asking people: “would more 100 IQ civilised Japanese people here be a good thing?” This is too general and not granular enough to capture contemporary immigration issues. What the Spinoff and their surrogates won’t mention is that the survey in question is not a neutral study carried out objectively by social scientists. It is funded and organised by the Asia NZ Foundation, an immigration lobby organisation which lobbies for mass migration from Asia. It’s transparently biased and obviously compromised by foreign interests. That is why the questions are deliberately leading to capture positive responses and methodologically flawed as to “Asian” as a category. Outrage on uncensored social media platforms like X can be manufactured but is more likely to be a more accurate read in the long run on public disquiet than manufactured statistics and polls by partisan interest groups like the Asia NZ Foundation. Even the left wing Helen Clark Foundation, whose polls would no less be constructed to elicit a particular response, had 36% of respondents saying immigration is too high in New Zealand.

I DEMAND THE EMPEROR END ALL DISCRIMINATION AGAINST NON-HUMANS IN THE IMPERIAL NAVY IMMEDIATELY

The Imperial Hivers would rather drink their water unfiltered and spiced with Genestealer pee and nurgle demon booty juice than believe that better things are possible. Commander Shadowsun please fire when ready.
