Opinion of the day #35: when (not if) humanity encounters xenos, if they are in any way hostile, they'll swiftly learn why exactly that we call things "human rights." They'll also learn why we have rules for warfare.

Quote…That's dark.
To a species that doesn't have them, it might seem silly to have rules for warfare. But once you know what happens without those rules… they seem necessary.
QuoteAnd you'd better hope that the rules you placed here aren't reversed.
Yeah lol. But there's where the indomitable human spirit comes in. We're great at giving our enemies pyrrhic victories.

Snapshot of my writing from today.
SpoilerI had been a tech once, like them. I didn’t work some glamorous Imperial Fleet job, all I did was manage communications on Kovar Technologies ships. Comm switches and fuses were my jam. That was what I did for nearly seven standard years as the ships I worked on jumped from system to system across the Milky Way, some even venturing into the Magellanic Clouds to resupply colony worlds and research stations all the way out there, over a hundred thousand light-years from Earth.
I've been working on expanding The Las-gun, the sci-fi short story I posted a while ago.

My new obsession is tabletop wargames. Specifically, Warhammer 40k.

"Why do I still live? What more could you want from me? I gave everything I had to you. To them! And look what they've made of our dream. This bloated, rotting carcass of an empire is driven not by reason and hope; but by fear, by hatred, and by ignorance. Better that we had all burned in the fires of Horus' ambition than lived to see this."

I just got turned down for a part-time job at Costco because I can't… work full-time hours?? They wanted me to be able to work five days a week, and were disappointed when I could only work part-time hours even though THAT'S WHAT I STORMING APPLIED FOR!!

On this day in 1190 AD, the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa drowned while crossing the Saleph River as he marched an army towards Jerusalem during the Third Crusade.

I just had a BRILLIANT cosplay idea:
Gothic.
Samurai.
Now, I of course mean "Gothic" in the medieval German sense, not black eyeliner.
I think it would look super cool. Ōdachi with a zwëihander-esque handle and a (mostly) straight blade, a steel Oni mask with fluted armor, lacquered plate with Japanese flairs, a kobakama instead of trousers.
It would be the perfect blend of fuedal Japan and medieval Europe.
